Avoid heating baby food
in glass jars, even with the
lid off. Make sure all
infant food is thoroughly
cooked. Stir food to
distribute the heat
evenly. Be careful to
prevent scalding when
warming formula or
breast milk. The container
may feel cooler than the
milk really is. Always test
the milk before feeding
the baby.
•
Spontaneous boiling—
Under certain special
circumstances, liquids
may start to boil during
or shortly after removal
from the microwave oven.
To prevent burns from
splashing liquid, we
recommend the following:
before removing the
container from the oven,
allow the container to
stand in the oven for 30
to 40 seconds after the
oven has shut off. Do not
boil liquids in narrow-
necked containers such
as soft drink bottles, wine
flasks and especially
narrow-necked coffee
cups. Even if the
container is opened,
excessive steam can build
up and cause it to burst
or overflow.
•
Don’t defrost frozen
beverages in narrow-
necked bottles (especially
carbonated beverages).
Even if the container is
opened, pressure can
build up. This can cause
the container to burst,
possibly resulting in
injury.
•
Hot foods and steam
can cause burns. Be
careful when opening
any containers of hot
food, including popcorn
bags, cooking pouches
and boxes. To prevent
possible injury, direct
steam away from hands
and face.
•
Do not overcook
potatoes. They could
dehydrate and catch
fire, causing damage to
your oven.
•
When cooking pork,
follow the directions
exactly and always cook
the meat to an internal
temperature of at least
170°F. This assures that,
in the remote possibility
that trichina may be
present in the meat, it
will be killed and meat
will be safe to eat.
SAFETY
FACT
SUPERHEATED WATER
Microwaved water and
other liquids do not
always bubble when
they reach the boiling
point. They can actually
get superheated and not
bubble at all.
Superheated liquid will
bubble up out of the cup
when it is moved or
when something like a
spoon or tea bag is put
into it.
To prevent this from
happening and causing
injury, do not heat any
liquid for more than 2
minutes per cup. After
heating, let the cup
stand in the microwave
for 30 seconds before
moving it or putting
anything into it.
