•
Food containing a mixture of fat and water (for example, stock)
should stand for 30 to 60 seconds in the oven after it has been
turned off. This is to allow the mixture to settle and to prevent it
from bubbling when a spoon is placed in it, or a stock cube is
added.
•
When heating or cooking food or liquid, remember that
there are certain foods (such as, jam, Christmas pudding, and
mincemeat) which heat up very quickly.
•
Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive
boiling, therefore care must be taken when handling the
container.
•
The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars shall be
stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before
consumption, in order to avoid burns. Do not heat baby bottles
with the teat left on. Remove it if replacing the bottle back
into the oven.
•
Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be
heated in microwave ovens since they may explode, even after
microwave heating has ended.
•
Do not cook any food surrounded by a membrane, such as egg
yolks, potatoes, chicken livers, sausages, ready meals and so
on without piercing them several times with a fork.
•
Do not try to deep-fry foods in this microwave oven.
•
Do not overcook food.
