The microwave function is particularly
suitable for reheating food.
Select the following microwave power
settings to reheat food
drinks. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1000 W
food . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 850 W or 600 W
baby food . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 450 W
Food for babies and young children
or the elderly must not be allowed to
get too hot. We do not recommend
heating or reheating foods or drinks
for babies or young children in the
microwave oven. Any decision to do
this is the responsibility of the user,
and should only be done with the
utmost care. Pasteurised or
sterilised cooked food should be
gently heated using 450 watts, and
tasted to make sure it is not too hot
for a baby’s palate before serving.
When reheating other food or drink,
heat to a high temperature and allow
to cool to a suitable heat for eating.
For formula milk follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.
The appropriate automatic programmes
are also ideal for reheating.
Always use a lid or cover for reheating
food, except when a drier finish is
needed, e.g. breaded poultry/meat.
Always remove the lids from jars,
e.g. jars of baby food.
Remove the rubber teat and screw
cap before warming baby bottles.
When reheating liquids, place the
boiling rod supplied with the
appliance into the cup or glass.
Never reheat hard boiled eggs using
microwave power, even without the
shell. The eggs can explode.
The time required depends largely on
the nature of the food, the amount and
its initial temperature. Food taken
straight from the refrigerator takes
longer to reheat than food stored at
room temperature.
Always ensure that food is
sufficiently reheated.
If in any doubt that a sufficiently high
temperature has been reached,
continue reheating for a little longer.
Stir or turn food from time to time during
reheating.
With the automatic programme a
buzzer sounds as a reminder. Stir the
food from the outside towards the
middle, as food heats more quickly
from the outside.
