• Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods. To prevent eruptive boiling of liq-
uids and possible scaling, stir before, during and after heating. Keep them in the microwave
oven during standing time. We recommend putting a plastic spoon or glass stick into the
liquids. Avoid overheating (and therefore spoiling) the food. It is preferable to underestimate
cooking time and add extra heating time, if necessary.
Heating and standing times
• When reheating food for the fi rst time, it is helpful to make a note of the time taken – for
future reference.
• Always make sure that the reheated food is piping hot throughout.
• Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating - to let the temperature even out.The
recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes, unless another time is recom-
mended in the chart.
Reheating liquids
Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the microwave oven has been
switched off to allow the temperature to even out. Stir during heating, if necessary, and
always stir after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should
put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after heating.
Reheating baby food
Baby food: Empty into a deep ceramic plate. Cover with plastic lid. Stir well after reheating!
Let stand for 2-3 minutes before serving. Stir again and check the temperature.
Recommended serving temperature: between 30–40 °C.
Baby milk: Pour milk into a sterilised glass bottle. Reheat uncovered. Never heat a baby’s
bottle with teat on, as the bottle may explode if overheated. Shake well before standing time
and again before serving! Always carefully check the temperature of baby milk or food before
giving it to the baby.
Recommended serving temperature is about 37 °C.
Remark: Baby food particularly needs to be checked carefully before serving to prevent burns.
Use the power levels and times in the next table as guide lines for reheating.
