Reheat
63
Select the following microwave power
levels to reheat food:
Drinks 800W
Food 600W
Food for babies and children 450W
Risk of burning due to hot food.
Food for babies and children must
not be too hot.
Only heat it for 1/2 to 1minute at
450watts.
Tips on reheating
Always use a lid or cover when
reheating food, except when a crispier
finish is needed, e.g. food with a
breadcrumb coating.
Danger of explosion due to
pressure build-up.
Pressure can build up during
reheating in sealed containers or
bottles, causing them to explode.
Sealed glass containers, such as jars
of baby food, must be opened before
they are heated in the microwave
oven. Do not attempt to heat them
up unopened. With baby bottles, the
screw top and teat must be taken
off.
Risk of injury caused by
overboiling.
When heating liquids using
microwave power, 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 microwave or
shaken, which can lead to the liquid
boiling over suddenly and
explosively. The formation of bubbles
can be so strong that the pressure
forces the appliance door open.
A boiling delay can be avoided by
stirring liquids before reheating them.
After reheating, wait at least
20seconds before removing the
container from the oven
compartment. In addition, a glass
rod or similar item, if available, can
be placed in the container during
heating.
Eggs can explode.
Never reheat hard boiled eggs using
the microwave oven, even without
the shell.
