FOR YOUR SAFETY
11
■ If you wish to boil a liquid (such as water)
put a plastic spoon in the cup. The liquid
could boil without you seeing any
movement. Once the cup is removed from
the oven, the liquid can start to boil rapidly
and spatter out of the cup.
■ On account of the increased pressure
during heating, liquids in airthight
packaging can only be heated if a couple of
openings have first been made in the
package.
■ Never heat for longer than necessary. Food
continues to cook after heating has
finished, so always let it stand a while
before eating.
■ Use as little water as possible when
cooking, and use salt sparingly.
■ Stir or turn over food half-way through
preparation time.
■ Use a fork or other sharp object to
puncture the skin of meat or fish. This
prevents juices spattering inside the oven.
■ Covering the food prevents spattering,
shortens the preparation time and helps
maintain the moisture level.
■ The door may be opened while the
microwave oven is switched on – the
microwave oven will then switch off
automatically, and the timer will pause.
One more thing…
If you wish to check how cooking is
proceeding:
■ Open the door.
The microwave stops.
■ To continue cooking close the door.
■ If you wish to stop cooking remove the dish
from the oven and turn the timer dial to the
“0”-setting.
