• Do not operate your oven
when it is empty. This may
damage the oven. Should you
wish to test the oven, place a
glass of water inside. The wa-
ter will absorb the microwave
energy and the oven will suffer
no damage.
• Only use utensils that are suit-
able for use in microwave
ovens.
• Do not use earthenware con-
tainers for microwave cook-
ing. Moisture in the earthen-
ware may expand and cause
cracking of your container.
To reduce the risk of fire in
the oven cavity:
• When heating food in plastic
or paper containers, keep an
eye on the oven due to the
possibility of ignition. If smoke
is observed, switch off or un-
plug the appliance and keep
the door closed in order to
stifle any flames.
• Remove wire twist-ties from
paper or plastic bags before
placing bag in oven.
• Do not use the cavity for stor-
age purposes . Do not leave
paper products, cooking
utensils or food in the cavity
when not in use.
• If you use materials like paper,
wood or plastic for cooking in
your microwave, do not leave
the oven unattended. Paper,
wood and similar materials
may ignite, while plastic ma-
terials may melt. Do not use
containers made of materials
for fan oven, grilling and mixed
cooking operations.
• The contents of feeding
bottles and baby food jars
shall be stirred or shaken and
the temperature checked be-
fore consumption, in order to
avoid burns.
• Liquids and other foods must
not be heated in sealed con-
tainers since they are liable to
explode.
• Microwave heating of bever-
ages can result in delayed
eruptive boiling, therefore care
must be taken when handling
the container.
• Eggs in shell and hard-boiled
eggs should not be heated in
the microwave, as they may
explode even after being
heated in the microwave.
• Do not use your oven to heat
carbonated drinks or foods
stored in airtight containers
like tin cans. This will cause
