■ Superheated water
Liquids, such as water, coffee
or tea are able to be overheated
beyond the boiling point without
appearing to be boiling. Visible
bubbling or boiling when the
container is removed from the
microwave oven is not always
present. THIS COULD RESULT
IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS
SUDDENLY BOILING OVER
WHEN THE CONTAINER IS
DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR
OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED
INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to
persons:
— Do not overheat the liquid.
— Stir the liquid both before and
halfway through heating it.
— Do not use straight-sided
containers with narrow necks.
— After heating, allow the
container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short
time before removing the
container.
— Use extreme care when
inserting a spoon or other
utensil into the container.
■ Avoid heating baby food in
glass jars, even with the lid off.
Make sure all infant food is
thoroughly cooked. Stir food
to distribute the heat evenly.
Be careful to prevent scalding
when warming formula. The
container may feel cooler
than the formula really is.
Always test the formula before
feeding the baby.
■ Don’t defrost frozen beverages
in narrow-necked bottles
(especially carbonated
beverages). Even if the
container is opened, pressure
can build up. This can cause
the container to burst,
possibly resulting in injury.
■ Hot foods and steam can
cause burns. Be 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 face.
■ Do not overcook potatoes.
They could dehydrate and
catch fire, causing damage
to your oven.
■ Cook meat and poultry
thoroughly—meat to at
least an INTERNAL
temperature of 160°F
and poultry to at least an
INTERNAL temperature of
180
°
F
. Cook
ing to these
temperatures usually protects
against foodborne illness.
