SUPERHEATED WATER
Liquids, such as water,
coffee or tea are able to be
overheated beyond the boiling
point without appearing to be
boiling. Visible bubbling or
boiling when the container is
removed from the microwave
oven is not always present.
THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY
HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY
BOILING OVER WHEN THE
CONTAINER IS DISTURBED
OR A SPOON OR OTHER
UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO
THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury
to persons:
— Do not overheat the liquid.
— Stir the liquid both before
and halfway through
heating it.
— Do not use straight-sided
containers with narrow
necks.
— After heating, allow the
container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short
time before removing the
container.
— Use extreme care when
inserting a spoon or other
utensil into the container.

■
Avoid heating baby food in
glass jars, even with the lid
off. Make sure all infant
food is thoroughly cooked.
Stir food to distribute the
heat evenly. Be careful to
prevent scalding when
warming formula or breast
milk. The container may
feel cooler than the milk
really is. Always test the
milk before feeding the
baby.
■
Don't defrost frozen
beverages in narrow-necked
bottles (especially
carbonated beverages).
Even if the container is
opened, pressure can build
up. This can cause the
container to burst, possibly
resulting in injury.
■
Hot foods and steam can
cause burns. Be careful
when opening any
containers of hot food,
including popcorn bags,
cooking pouches and
boxes. To prevent possible
injury, direct steam away
from hands and face.
■
Do not overcook potatoes.
They could dehydrate and
catch fire, causing damage
to your oven.
■
Cook meat and poultry
thoroughly—meat to at least
an INTERNAL temperature
of 160°F (70°C) and poultry
to at least an INTERNAL
temperature of 180°F
(80°C). Cooking to these
temperatures usually
protects against food-
borne illness.
