 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. How to use aluminum foil in your microwave oven:  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 oven. 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. Galanz is not responsible for any damage to the oven when accessories are used ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE  Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave oven 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 children must be able to reach the oven comfortably; if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.  At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the oven door.  Children should be taught all safety precautions; use potholders, remove coverings carefully and 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 microwave oven is not a toy. 10
