Paper products containing nylon or nylonfilaments should be avoided, as they may also ignite.• Some styrofoam trays (like those that meat is packaged on) havea thin strip of metal embedded in the bottom. When microwaved,the metal can burn the floor of the oven or ignite a paper towel.• Do not use the microwave to dry newspapers.• Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use in microwave ovens.Check the package for proper use.• Paper towels, waxed paper and plastic wrap can be used to coverdishes in order to retain moisture and prevent spattering. Be sureto vent plastic wrap so steam can escape.• Cookware may become hot because of heat transferred from theheated food. Pot holders may be needed to handle the cookware.• “Boilable” cooking pouches and tightly closed plastic bags shouldbe slit, pierced or vented as directed by package. If they are not,plastic could burst during or immediately after cooking, possiblyresulting in injury. Also, plastic storage containers should be atleast partially uncovered because they form a tight seal.
