Bertazzoni 30 Ventilation Microwave Oven 业主指南

that have little fat or sugar in them:
•  wood, straw, wicker
DO NOT USE:

•  metal pans and bakeware (cookie sheets / brownie pans)
•  dishes with metallic trim
•  non-heat-resistant glass
•  non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)
•  recycled paper products
•  brown paper bags
•  food storage bags
•  metal twist-ties
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.
The following coverings are ideal:
•  Paper  towels  are  good  for  covering  foods  for  reheating 

and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.

•  Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.
•  Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave use 

can  be  used  for  cooking  and  reheating. 

DO  NOT  allow 

plastic wrap to touch food. Vent so steam can escape.

•  Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice because 

heat is kept near the food to hasten cooking.

•  Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or foods that 

need tenderizing. 

DO NOT use metal twist ties. Remember 

to slit bag so steam can escape.

microwave:
•  Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on the 

food can be used to shield areas that are either defrosting 

or cooking too quickly.

•  Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface 

of the over the range microwave.

Should you have questions about utensils or coverings, check 

a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe suggestions.
ACCESSORIES  There  are  many  microwave  accessories 

available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before you purchase 

so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer 

will assist you in determining correct doneness and assure you 

that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures. Bertazzoni 

is  not  responsible  for  any  damage  to  the  over  the  range 

microwave when accessories are used.

•  Children below the age of 7 should use the over the range 

microwave with a supervising person very near to them. 

Between  the  ages  of  7  and  12,  the  supervising  person 

should  be in the same room. The child must be able to 

reach the over the range microwave comfortably.

•  At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the 

over the range microwave.

•  Children  should  be  taught  all  safety  precautions:  use 

potholders,  remove  coverings  carefully,  pay  special 

attention to packages that crisp food because they may 

be extra hot.

•  Don't  assume  that  because  a  child  has  mastered  one 

cooking skill he/she can cook everything.

•  Children need to learn that the over the range microwave 

is not a toy. See page 14 for Child Lock feature.

•  Arrange  food  carefully.  Place  thickest  areas  towards 

outside of dish.

•  Watch  cooking  time.  Cook  for  the  shortest  amount  of 

time  indicated  and  add  more  as  needed.  Food  severely 

overcooked can smoke or ignite.

•  Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for 

suggestions: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic 

wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to 

cook evenly.

•  Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas 

of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking before dense, 

thick areas are cooked thoroughly.

•  Stir  foods  from  outside  to  center  of  dish  once  or  twice 

during cooking, if possible.

•  Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking 

of  such  foods  as  chicken  and  hamburgers.  Large  items 

like roasts must be turned over at least once.

•  Rearrange  foods  such  as  meatballs  halfway  through 

cooking both from top to bottom and from right to left.

•  Add  standing  time.  Remove  food  from  over  the  range 

microwave  and  stir,  if  possible.  Cover  for  standing  time 

which allows the food to finish cooking without overcooking.

•  Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking 

temperatures have been reached.

Doneness signs include:
•  Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
•  Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.
•  Poultry thigh joints move easily.
•  Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
•  Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
