3. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
• Do not overcook the food.
• Remove wire twist -ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bags in the oven.
• Do not heat oil or fat for deep frying as the temperature of oil cannot be controlled.
• After use wipe the waveguide cover with a damp cloth, followed by dry cloth to remove any
food splashes and grease. Built -up grease may overheat and begin to cause smoke or catch
fire.
• If materials inside the oven should smoke or ignite, keep oven door closed, turn oven off and
disconnect the power supply.
• Close supervision is necessary when using disposable containers made from plastic, paper
or other combustible material.
4. To reduce the risk of explosion and sudden boiling:
• Do not place sealed containers in the oven. Baby bottles fitted with a screw cap or teat are
considered to be sealed containers.
• When boiling liquid in the oven, use a wide-mouthed container and stand about 20 seconds
at the end of cooking to avoid delayed eruption boiling of liquids.
• Potatoes, sausage and chestnuts should be peeled or pierced before cooking. Eggs in their
shell, whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may ex-
plode, even after microwave heating has ended.
