Danger of explosion
• When using the microwave to
heat or reheat liquids, the
boiling process may be
delayed – boiling temperature
can be reached without the
formation of the usual "rolling
boil".
• This delayed boiling and
consequent superheating of the
liquid can generate an
explosion inside the appliance,
or sudden boiling over of the
superheated liquid can occur
when removing the container
from the appliance.
• To avoid these dangers, it is
necessary to insert the supplied
boiling rod (or a heat-resistant
plastic spoon) in the container
while heating.
