To avoid the possibility of explosion and sudden boiling:
WARNING: Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode.
Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care must be taken when handling the container.
Never use sealed containers. Remove seals and lids before use. Sealed containers can explode due to a build up of pressure even after the oven has been turned off.
Take care when microwaving liquids. Use a wide mouthed container to allow bubbles to escape.
Never heat liquids in narrow necked containers such as baby bottles, as this may result in the contents erupting from the container when heated and cause burns.
To prevent sudden eruption of boiling liquid and possible scalding:
1.Do not use excessive amount of time.
2.Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.
3.It is advisable to insert a glass rod or similar utensil (not metal) into the liquid whilst reheating.
4.Let liquid stand for at least 20 seconds in the oven at the end of cooking time to prevent delayed eruptive boiling.
Do not cook eggs in their shells, and whole hard boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode even after microwave cooking has ended. To cook or reheat eggs which have not been scrambled or mixed, pierce the yolks and the whites, or the eggs may explode. Shell and slice hard boiled eggs before reheating them in the microwave oven.
Pierce the skin of such foods as potatoes, sausages and fruit before cooking, or they may explode.
To avoid the possibility of burns
WARNING: The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars must be stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns.
Use pot holders or oven gloves when removing food from the oven to prevent burns.
Always open containers, popcorn makers, oven cooking bags, etc., away from the face and hands to avoid steam burns and eruption of boiling.
To avoid burns, always test food temperature and stir before serving and pay special attention to the temperature of food and drink given to babies, children or the elderly. Accessible parts may become
hot during use. Young children should be kept away. Temperature of the container is not a true indication of the temperature of the food or drink; always check the food temperature.
Always stand back from the oven door when opening it to avoid burns from escaping steam and heat. Slice stuffed baked foods after heating to release steam and avoid burns.
Keep children away from the door to prevent them burning themselves.
