Safety Information
Do not use these in your Microwave
• Metal objects are not to be used in the microwave. These include:
- Metal cooking utensils
- Metal plates or trays
- Wine twist ties
- Crockery with metal trim
- Meat thermometer
• Never use equipment made of metal, except aluminium foil in
your microwave. The microwave energy cannot pass through
metal so it bounces off and sparks against the inside of the mi-
crowave.
• Stop the microwave straight away if any item is causing sparks.
• Remember that some crockery has a metal trim. 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 micro-
wave:
- Sealed containers - Capped bottles
- Vacuum containers - Sealed jars
- Hard-boiled eggs - Eggs in their shells
- Nuts
• 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.
