SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR GENERAL USE

11. Please remember that a microwave oven only heats
the liquid in a container rather than the container
itself.Therefore, even though the lid of a container is
not hot to the touch when removed from the oven,
please remember that the food/liquid inside will be
releasing the same amount of steam and/or spitting
when the lid is removed as in conventional cooking.
12. Always test the temperature of cooked food yourself
especially if you are heating or cooking food/liquid for
babies. It is advisable never to consume food/liquid
straight from the oven but allow it to stand for a few
minutes and stir food/liquid to distribute heat evenly.
13. Food containing a mixture of fat and water,
e.g.stock,should stand for 30-60 seconds in the
oven after it has been turned o. This is to allow the
mixture to settle and to prevent bubbling when a
spoon is placed in the food/liquid or a stock cube is
added.
14. When preparing/cooking food/liquid and remember
that there are certain foods, e.g. Christmas puddings,
jam and mincemeat, which heat up very quickly.
When heating or cooking foods with a high fat or
sugar content do not use plastic containers.
15. Cooking utensil may become hot because of heat
transferred from the heated food. This is especially
true if plastic wrap has been covering the top and
handles of the utensil. Potholders may be needed to
handle the utensil.
16. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
a) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend microwave
oven if paper, plastic, or other combustible
materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate
cooking.
b) Remove wire twist-ties from bags before placing
bag in oven.
c) If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep oven
door closed, turn the oven o at the wall switch, or
shut o power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
