Never cook or reheat food or liquids
in sealed containers, jars or bottles.
With baby bottles, the screw top and
teat must be loosened.
Otherwise pressure builds up which
can cause the bottle or container to
explode, posing a severe risk of injury.
Danger of injury!
~
Exercise caution when cooking or
reheating food with a high sugar
content, e.g. Christmas pudding. If
heated for too long, the sugar may
caramelise or ignite.
~
Before serving, remember to allow a
sufficient standing time and then
always check the temperature of the
actual food itself after taking it out of the
microwave. The temperature of the
container is not an indication of the
temperature of the food or liquid in it.
This is particularly important when
preparing food for babies, children,
and the elderly or infirm. Shake or stir
baby milk and food thoroughly after
heating, and try it for temperature to
ensure that it will not scald the baby.
When heating food and drinks,
remember that the heat is created in
the food itself, and that the container
will normally be cooler. The dish is only
warmed by the heat of the food.

When heating liquids, the boiling rod
provided should always 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,
which 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, with a danger of burning.
The boiling rod ensures that bubbles
are produced, and that liquids heat
evenly.
