Correct use
~
Always ensure that food is
sufficiently heated.
Many factors will affect the overall
cooking time, including the size and
amount of food, its initial temperature,
changes to the recipe, and the shape
and size of the cooking container.
Some foods may contain
micro-organisms which are only
destroyed by thorough cooking,
therefore when cooking or reheating
foods, e.g. poultry, it is particularly
important that food is fully cooked
through (at temperatures over 70°C for
more than 10 minutes). If in doubt,
select a longer cooking or reheating
time.
~
It is important that the heat is
allowed to spread evenly throughout
the food being cooked. This can be
achieved by stirring and/or turning the
food, and by observing a sufficiently
long standing time, which should be
added to the time needed for cooking,
reheating or defrosting.
~
Always remember that times for
cooking, reheating and defrosting in a
microwave oven are usually
considerably shorter than with
traditional methods of food preparation.
Excessively long cooking times can
lead to food drying out and burning, or
could even cause it to catch fire. There
is also a danger of fire if breadcrumbs,
flowers, herbs, etc., are dried in the
microwave oven.
Always ensure that this type of
procedure is supervised.
~
Do not use the microwave function
to heat up cushions or pads filled with
cherry kernels, wheat grains, lavender
or gel, such as those used in
aromatherapy. These pads can ignite
when heated, even after they have
been removed from the microwave.
~
Exercise caution when cooking or
reheating food with a high sugar
content, e.g. Christmas pudding. If
heated for too long, the sugar may
caramelise or ignite.
~
The microwave is not suitable for
cleaning or disinfecting items.
Items can get extremely hot, and there
is a danger of burning when the item is
removed from the microwave. Fire
hazard.
~
Do not use full power to warm empty
dishes or to dry out herbs. Do not use
the appliance without food, or if it is
incorrectly loaded.
~
Never cook or reheat food or liquids
in sealed containers, jars or bottles.
With baby bottles, the screw top
and
teat must be loosened. Otherwise
pressure builds up which can cause
the bottle or container to explode,
posing a severe risk of injury.
