cause it to burst, possibly resulting in injury.
• Operating the microwave with no food
inside for more than a minute or two may
cause damage to the oven and could start
a fire. It increasesthe heat around the
magnetron and can shorLen the life of the
oven.
• Foodswith unbroken outer "skin" such as
potatoes, hot dogs, sausages, tomatoes,
apples, chicken livers and other giblets, and
egg yolks should be pierced to allow steam
to escape during cooking.

feel cooler than the formula really is.Always
test the formula before feeding the baby.

careful when opening any containers of
hot food, including popcorn bags, cooking
pouches and boxes. To prevent possible
injury, direct steam away from hands and
