How to Use a Microwave: step-by-step guide
A microwave heats food fast. The key is using a safe container and the right time.
Put your food in a microwave safe dish. No metal and no foil.
Open the microwave door and set the dish in the center.
Close the door until it clicks.
Press the number buttons for the time, or use a preset button.
Press start and stay nearby while it runs.
When it beeps, open the door and lift the dish with a towel or mitt because it may be hot.
Stir the food and check the temperature before eating.
