•Metal containers and containers with metallic trim should not be used in the microwave oven, unless specifically recommended for microwave use.

•Containers with restricted openings, such as bottles, should not be used for microwave cooking.

•Use caution when removing a lid or cover from a dish to avoid steam burns.

Foil containers

Shallow foil containers may safely be used to reheat foods in your microwave oven providing the fol- lowing rules are observed:

1.Foil containers should not be more than 3 cm (1 1/4”) deep.

2.Foil lids must not be used.

3.The foil containers must be at least two-thirds full of food. Empty containers must never be used.

4.Foil containers should be used singly in the microwave oven and should not be allowed to touch the sides. If your oven has a metal turntable or cooking rack, the foil container should be placed on an upturned oven- proof plate.

5.Foil containers should never be re-used in the microwave oven.

6. If the microwave oven has been in use for 15 minutes or more, allow it to cool before using it again.

7.The container and turntable may become hot during use, take great care when removing either from the oven. It is advisable to use an oven cloth or glove when doing so.

8.Remember when using an aluminium foil container that the reheating or cooking times may be longer than you are used to, always ensure that the food is piping hot before serving.

Food safety

•Do not heat food in a can in the microwave oven. Always remove the food to a suitable container.

•Deep fat frying should not be done in the microwave oven, because the fat temperature cannot be con- trolled, hazardous situations can result.

•Popcorn may be prepared in the microwave oven, but only in special packages or utensils designed specifically for this purpose. This cooking opera- tion should never be unattended.

•Pierce foods with non-porous skins or membranes to prevent steam build-up and bursting. Apples, pota- toes, chicken livers, and egg yolks are examples of items that should be pierced.

•The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken and the temperature is to be checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns.

When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces and ! beverages in your microwave oven, overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sud- den boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken:

1. Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

2. Do not overheat.

3. Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway through the heating time.

4. After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a short time, stirring again before carefully removing the container.

Some products such as whole eggs and sealed ! containers – for example, closed glass jars – may explode and should not be heated in this oven. Occasionally, poached eggs may explode during cooking. Always pierce the yolk, then cover and allow standing time of one minute

before removing cover.

Keep these instructions!
