Utensils Guide; Cleaning And Care - Furrion FMAN09-BL Manual Del Usuario

To prevent overcooking, place delicate areas, such as
asparagus tips, toward the center of the turntable.
SHIELDING
Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent
overcooking. Areas that need shielding include poultry wing
tips, the ends of poultry legs, and corners of square baking
dishes. Use only small amounts of aluminum foil. Larger
amounts can damage your oven.
TURNING
Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts
to microwave energy. This is especially important with large
foods such as roasts.
STANDING
Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal heat and
continue to cook for a few minutes after heating stops. Let
foods stand to complete cooking, especially foods such
as cakes and whole vegetables. Roasts need this time to
complete cooking in the center without overcooking the
outer areas. All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate, should
be shaken or stirred when cooking is complete. Let liquids
stand a moment before serving. When heating baby food, stir
well at removal and test the temperature before serving.
ADDING MOISTURE
Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that
is uneven in moisture content should be covered or allowed
to stand so that the heat disperses evenly. Add a small
amount of water to dry food to help it cook.

Utensils Guide

This section lists which utensils can be used in the
microwave, which ones have limited use for short periods,
and which ones should not be used in the microwave.
RECOMMENDED
Microwave browning dish — Use to brown the exterior of
small items such as steaks, chops, or pancakes. Follow the
directions provided with your browning dish.
Microwaveable plastic wrap — Use to retain steam. Leave
a small opening for some steam to escape and avoid placing
it directly on the food.

Cleaning and Care

3. Before cleaning, disconnect the power cord from the
electrical outlet or turn the circuit breaker off.
4. Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food splatters
or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls, wipe with a damp
cloth. Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets very
dirty. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as
they may stain, streak or dull the door surface.
5. The outside surfaces should be cleaned with a damp
cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside
the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the
ventilation openings.
Paper towels and napkins — Use for short-term heating
and covering; these absorb excess moisture and prevent
spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may
contain metal and could ignite.
Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes — Use for
heating or cooking.
Paper plates and cups — Use for short-term heating at low
temperatures. Do not use recycled paper, which may contain
metal and could ignite.
Wax paper — Use as a cover to prevent spattering.
Thermometers — Use only those labeled "Microwave Safe"
and follow all directions. Check the food in several places.
Conventional thermometers may be used on microwave food
once the food has been removed from the oven.
LIMITED USE
Aluminum foil — Use narrow strips of foil to prevent
overcooking of exposed areas. Using too much foil can
damage your oven, so be careful. You should keep distance
of 1 inch (25.4mm) between aluminum foil and cavity.
Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware — Use these if they
are labeled "Microwave Safe". If they are not labeled, test
them to make sure they can be used safely.
Plastic — Use only if labeled "Microwave Safe". Other
plastics can melt.
NOT RECOMMENDED
Glass jars and bottles — Regular glass is too thin to be
used in a microwave. It can shatter and cause damage and
injury.
Paper bags — These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn
bags that are designed for microwave use.
Styrofoam plates and cups — These can melt and leave an
unhealthy residue on food.
Plastic storage and food containers — Containers such as
margarine tubs can melt in the microwave.
Metal utensils — These can damage your oven. Remove all
metal before cooking.
NOTE: Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for
microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and
microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes
very hot should not be used.
6. Wipe the door and window on both sides, the door seals
and adjacent parts frequently with a damp cloth to remove
any spills or spatters. Do not use abrasive cleaner.
7. Do not allow the control panel to become wet. Clean with
a soft, damp cloth. When cleaning the control panel, leave
oven door open to prevent oven from accidentally turning
on.
8. If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the
oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur when
the microwave oven is operated under high humidity
conditions. In such case, it is normal.
