materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate
cooking.
—Remove wire twist-ties and metal handles
from paper or plastic containers before
placing them in the oven.
—Do not use your microwave/convection oven
to dry newspapers.
—Do not use recycled paper products. Recycled
paper towels, napkins and waxed paper can
contain metal flecks which may cause arcing
or ignite. Paper products containing nylon or
nylon filaments should be avoided, as they
may also ignite.
—Do not pop popcorn in your microwave/
convection oven unless in a special microwave
popcorn accessory or unless you use popcorn
labeled for use in microwave ovens.
—Do
not overcook potatoes. They
could
dehydrate and catch fire, causing damage
to your oven.
—Do not operate the oven while empty to avoid
damage to the oven and the danger of fire.
If by accident the oven should run empty a
minute or two, no harm is done. However, try to
avoid operating the oven empty at all
times—
it saves energy and prolongs the life of the oven.
