the oven when not in use.
15.
Never
heat liquid or other food in sealed containers as
they are liable to explode.
16. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars
should be stirred or shaken and the temperature
should be checked on the inside of your wrist, before
serving in order to avoid burns.
17. Liquids heated in certain shaped containers (especially
cylindrical-shaped containers) may become
overheated. The liquid may splash out with a loud
noise during or after heating or when adding
ingredients (instant coffee, etc.), resulting in harm to
the oven and possible injury. In all containers, for best
results, stir the liquid several times before heating.
Always stir liquid several times between re-heating.
18. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed
eruptive boiling, care must be taken when handling the
containers.
19. Liquids such as water, coffee, hot chocolate, or tea
are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point.
Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is
removed from the microwave oven is not always
present.
THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT
LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE
CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR
OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID
.
To Avoid this from occurring:
a.
Do not
over heat liquid.
b. Stir the liquid before and halfway through heating it.
c. After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing
the container.
d.
Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other
utensil into the container.
e.

containers should not be heated in the microwave
oven. For example, heating eggs in their shells, whole
hard-boiled eggs or closed glass jars can explode and
should not be heated in the microwave oven.
22. Pierce foods with heavy skins such as potatoes, whole
squashes, apples and chestnuts before cooking.
23. Avoid heating small-necked containers like honey or
syrup bottles.
24. Avoid using corrosive and vapors, such as sulfide and
chloride.
25. Cooking containers may become hot because of heat
transferred from the heated food. Use potholders to
remove the containers from the microwave oven.
26.
Always
make sure that your cooking containers are
microwave safe.
27.
