-Most foods can be removed easily with soap anda damp cloth or glass cleaner. Rinse and dry. Dried on foods, place 1/2 cup of water in oven, heat on high 35 minutes. Steam will soften dried on food and they will wipe out easily. NEVER USE A COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANER ON ANY PART OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN. OVEN BOTTOM - High heat generated from the bottom of a browning dish can cause scorched stains to appear on the oven floor. DO NOT use a browning dish in this microwave,

microwave cooking. Follow product directions exactly. -- Microwave all food for times recommended in the cookbook. If necessary, add time at the end to complete cooking. -- Excessive cooking of any food can cause a fire. Set cooking time carefully and always double check the display to insure that you have entered the correct time. -- DO NOT cook or reheat eggs in the shell. Eggs heat so quickly that pressure builds up inside the shell and can cause the eggs to explode. -- Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated food. This is especially true if plastic wrap has been covering the top and handles of the utensil. Potholders may be needed to handle the utensil. -- Use only plastic utensils which are designed for use in the microwave. Even microwave plastic may not be as tolerant ofovercooking as are glass or ceramic utensils. They may soften, char or ignite if subjected to extreme over cooking. Use microwave plastics only in strict compliance with manufacturer's recommendations. -- DO NOT run microwave with empty utensils. DO NOT permit children to use plastic utensils without supervision. -- Avoid using recycled paper. It contains small metal fragments which could cause the paper to ignite with fire. -- DO NOT use containers with restricted openings such as pop bottles or salad dressing bottles, as these types of containers are likely to break. -- IN CASE OF FIRE. TURN THE OVEN OFF, KEEP DOOR CLOSED AND FIRE WILL EXTINGUISH ITSELF. 8 --
