first aid
Treat scalding by:
• Quickly placing the scald under cold running water for at least 10
minutes.
• Cover with a clean dry dressing. Do not use creams, oils or lotions.
cleaning your microwave
• The microwave should be cleaned regularly and food deposits
removed. Failure to maintain the microwave in a clean condition
can affect the life of the microwave and possibly result in a
hazardous situation. (See cleaning your microwave.)
• Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the unit.
do not use these in your microwave
• Metal objects are not to be used in the microwave. These include:
- Metal cooking utensils
- Metal plates or trays
- Wire twist ties
- Crockery with metal trims
- Meat thermometer
• Never use equipment made of metal, except aluminium foil in your
microwave. The microwave energy cannot pass through metal so it
bounces off and sparks against the inside of the microwave.
• Stop the microwave straight away if any equipment is causing
sparks.
• Remember that some crockery has a metal trim around the edge.
Even this trim can cause sparks.
containers
warning: Pressure will build up in sealed containers and can
cause them to explode. Therefore, do not use the following in your
microwave:
- Sealed containers
- Sealed jars
• Always pierce the skin of fruit and vegetables, such as potatoes.
- Capped bottles
- Hard-boiled eggs
- Vacuum containers
- Eggs in their shells
