1. Cooking times
• Cooking times given in the cookbook are approximate. The cooking
time depends on the condition, temperature, amount of food and on the
type of cookware.
• Begin with the minimum cooking time to help prevent overcooking. If
the food is not sufficiently cooked you can always cook it for a little
longer.
N.B.: If the recommended cooking times are exceeded the food
will be spoiled and in extreme circumstances could catch fire and
possibly damage the interior of the oven.
2. Small quantities of foods
• Small quantities of food or foods with low moisture content can burn,
dry out or catch on fire if cooked too long. If materials inside the oven
should ignite, keep the oven door closed, turn the oven off and remove
the plug from the socket.
3. Eggs
• Do not cook eggs in their shells and whole hard-boiled eggs by
MICROWAVE. Pressure may build up and the eggs will explode, even
after microwave heating has ended.
4. Piercing skin
• Food with non porous skins, such as potatoes, egg yolks and sausages
must be pierced before cooking by MICROWAVE to prevent bursting.
5. Meat thermometer
• Use a meat thermometer to check the degree of cooking of roasts and
poultry only when the meat has been removed from the oven. Do not
use a conventional meat thermometer when using MICROWAVE or
COMBINATION because it may cause sparking.
Important Information
6. Liquids
• When heating liquids, e.g. soup, sauces and beverages in your
microwave oven, overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur
without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of
the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility the following steps should be
taken:
a) Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
b) Do not overheat.
c) Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again
halfway through the cooking time.
d) After heating, allow it to stand in the oven for a short time, stir
again before carefully removing the container.
7. Paper/Plastic
• When heating food in plastic or paper containers, check the oven
frequently as these types of containers ignite if overheated.
• Do not use recycled paper products (e.g. Kitchen Roll) unless the
paper product is labelled as safe for microwave oven use. Recycled
paper products may contain impurities which may cause sparks and/or
fires during use.
• Remove wire twist-ties from roasting bags before placing the bags in
the oven.
8. Utensils/foil
• Do not heat any closed cans or bottles because they might explode.
• Metal containers or dishes with metallic trim should not be used during
Microwave cooking. Sparking will occur.
• If you use any aluminium foil, meat spikes or metalware the distance
between them and the oven walls and door should be at least 2 cm to
prevent sparking.
9. Feeding bottles/baby food jars
• The top and teat or lid must be removed from feeding bottles or baby
food jars before placing in the oven.
• The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or
shaken.
• The temperature has to be checked before consumption to avoid
burns.
