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. To avoid the possibility of
explosion and sudden boiling:
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 o . 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 (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. 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.
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
