Attempt
to
cook
food
in
an
intact
shell
(e.g.
chestnuts)
or
hard
skin
(tomatoes,
potatoes,
sausages)
‐
always
make
a
slit.
Food
temperatures
The
action
of
microwaves
is
such
that
only
the
food
is
heated.
The
container
may,
therefore,
remain
cold
or
cool
while
the
food
that
it
contains
is
burning
hot.
To
avoid
any
risk
of
burning,
always
stir
before
serving
and
check
the
temperature
carefully
before
serving
‐
especially
to
children.
Shake
feeding
bottles
well
and
try
a
few
drops
on
the
back
of
your
wrist
to
check
the
temperature.
Preparing
food
for
cooking
Before
warming
feeding
bottles
and
small
pots,
remove
teats
and
covers.
Remember
to
cover
the
food
in
order
to:
•
avoid
any
splashing
of
the
oven
cavity,
•
retain
sufficient
moisture
for
cooking.
Heating
liquids
When
heating
liquids,
a
sudden
overflow
may
occur
when
you
take
the
container
to
remove
it
from
the
appliance.
In
fact,
when
the
temperature
reaches
boiling
point,
steam
tends
to
remain
trapped
in
the
liquid
until
it
is
disturbed.
To
avoid
this
superheating
effect
and
the
consequent
risk
of
scalding,
always
place
a
plastic
spoon
in
the
liquid
to
be
heated.
A
container
can
easily
be
tested
for
microwave
“transparency”:
Place
the
empty
container
on
the
turntable
together
with
a
glass
of
water
and
run
the
oven
for
one
minute
at
maximum
power.
After
one
minute:
•
if
the
container
is
cold,
it
is
“transparent”
and
can
be
used
for
microwave
cooking,
•
if
the
container
is
warm
or
hot
it
is
absorbent
and
must
not
be
used
for
microwave
cooking.
Child
Lock
The
child
lock
prevents
the
oven
from
being
operated
unintentionally
or
by
unsupervised
children.
•
To
set
the
child
lock,
keep
pressed
and
then
press
.
A
long
beep
will
sound
and
the
display
will
show
“
”.
In
the
lock
state,
all
buttons
are
disabled.
•
To
cancel
the
child
lock,
keep
pressed
and
then
press
.
A
long
beep
will
sound
and
the
lock
symbol
“
”will
disappear
from
the
display.
NOTE
:
This
function
is
only
available
when
the
oven
is
not
in
operation.
