Meat Thermometer - Panasonic NN-K18JMM Operating Instructions Manual

Eggs
Do not cook eggs in their shells
Q Q
and whole hard-boiled eggs by
MICROWAVE. Pressure may
build up and the eggs may
explode, even after the
microwave heating has ended.
Piercing skin
Food with non porous skins, such
Q Q
as potatoes, egg yolks and
sausages must be pierced before
cooking by MICROWAVE to
prevent bursting.

Meat thermometer

Use a meat thermometer to
Q Q
check the degree of cooking of
roasts and poultry only when the
meat has been removed from the
oven. Do not use a conventional
meat thermometer in the
microwave oven because it may
cause sparking.
Liquids
When heating liquids, e.g. soup,
Q Q
sauces and beverages in your
microwave oven, overheating the
liquid beyond boiling point can
occur without evidence of
bubbling. This could result in a
sudden boil over of the hot liquid.
To prevent this possibility the
following steps should be taken:
a Avoid using straight-sided
containers with narrow necks.
b Do not overheat.
c Stir the liquid before placing the
container in the oven and again
halfway through the cooking time.
d After heating, allow it to stand
in the oven for a short time, stir
again before carefully removing
the container.

Paper/plastic
When heating food in plastic or
Q Q
paper containers, keep an eye on
the oven as these types of
containers ignite if overheated.
Do not use recycled paper
Q Q
products (e.g. Kitchen Roll)
unless the paper product is
labelled as safe for microwave
oven use. Recycled paper
products may contain impurities
which may cause sparks and/or
fires during use.
Remove wire twist-ties from
Q Q
roasting bags before placing the
bags in the oven.
Utensils/foil
Do not heat any closed cans or
Q Q
bottles because they might
explode.
Metal containers or dishes with
Q Q
metallic trim should not be used
during microwave cooking.
Sparking will occur.
If you use any aluminium foil,
Q Q
meat spikes or metalware the
distance between them and the
oven walls and door should be at
least 2 cm to prevent sparking.
Feeding bottles/baby food jars
The top and teat or lid must be
Q Q
removed from feeding bottles or
baby food jars before placing in
the oven.
The contents of feeding bottles
Q Q
and baby food jars are to be
stirred or shaken.
The temperature has to be
Q Q
checked before consumption to
avoid burns.
