Utensils/Containers
Before use check that utensils/
containers are suitable for use in
microwave ovens. See pages
33-34.
Storage of Accessories
Do not store any objects other than
oven accessory inside the oven in
case it is accidentally turned on.
Babies Bottles and Food Jars
When reheating babies bottles
always remove top and teat.
Liquid at the top of the bottle
will be much hotter than that at
the bottom and must be shaken
thoroughly before checking the
temperature. The lid must also be
removed from babies food jars,
the contents must also be stirred
or shaken before the temperature
is checked. This should be carried
out before consumption in order to
avoid burns. See pages 95-96.
Arcing
Arcing may occur if a metal
container has been used incorrectly,
if the incorrect weight of food is
used, or if the accessories have
been damaged. Arcing is when
blue flashes of light are seen in
the microwave oven. If this occurs,
stop the machine immediately. If
the oven is left unattended and
this continues it can damage the
machine. You can continue to cook
by Grill, Oven or Steam only.
In a microwave oven, electricity is
converted into microwaves by the
Magnetron. For bottom feeding,
please refer to page 43.
