COOKING GUIDE
REHEATING LIQUIDS
Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the 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.

Always carefully check the temperature of baby milk or food before giving it
to the baby. Recommended serving temperature: ca. 37 °C.
