- Meat thermometer
• Never use equipment made of metal, except aluminium foil in your
microwave. The microwave energy cannot pass through the metal so it
bounces off and sparks against the inside of the microwave.
• Stop the microwave straight away if any equipment is causing sparks.
• Remember that some crockery has a metal trim around the edge. Even
this trim can cause sparks.
Containers
WARNING: Pressure will build up in sealed containers and can cause them
to explode. Therefore, do not use the following in your microwave:
- Sealed containers
- Capped bottles
- Vacuum containers
- Sealed jars
- Hard-boiled eggs
- Eggs in their shells
• Always pierce the skin of fruit and vegetables, such as potatoes.
• Never use scratched, cracked or damaged glass in a microwave.
Damaged glass can explode.
• When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the
microwave due to the possibility of ignition.
Delayed Boiling
Liquids heated in a microwave can boil up when removing them from the
microwave.
Take the following precautions:
• Always stir liquids, before and after cooking.
• Allow them to stand.
• Use containers that are wider at the top than at the bottom.
Preparing Food for Babies
• Extra care must be taken when preparing food or drink for babies and
small children.
• Always test the food or liquid temperature before feeding it to the baby.
• When using a baby bottle, ensure the teat is removed before heating.
• When warming baby food or milk, ensure that it is thoroughly stirred
and at a safe consumable temperature.
