When heating liquids, the boiling
rod provided should be placed into
the container.
When heating liquids, milk, sauces etc.,
in the oven without the boiling rod, the
boiling point of the liquid may be
reached without the production of
typical bubbles. The liquid does not
boil evenly throughout. This so-called
‘boiling delay’ can cause a sudden
build up of bubbles when the container
is removed from the oven or shaken.
This can lead to the liquid boiling over
suddenly and explosively. Danger of
burning.
The formation of bubbles can be so
strong that the pressure forces the oven
door open. The user could be injured
and the appliance damaged.
The boiling rod ensures that the liquid
boils evenly and that bubbles form at
an early stage during the operation.
To avoid fuelling any flames, do not
open the oven door if smoke
occurs in the oven interior.
Interrupt the process (by pressing the
Stop/C button twice). Switch off at the
wall socket, and where applicable
remove the plug. Do not open the door
until the smoke has dispersed.
Never heat undiluted alcohol in the
microwave oven as this can easily
ignite.
Do not heat up tins in the
microwave oven. Pressure can
build up and they may explode,
resulting in injury or damage.
Cover any food which is left in the
oven to be kept hot, as moisture in
the food could lead to corrosion
damage in the oven. This also prevents
the food from drying out.
Try to avoid the interior walls being
splashed with food or liquids
containing salt. If it does happen wipe
these away thoroughly, to avoid
corrosion on the stainless steel surface.
