Microwave cooking guidelines

  • If you are heating liquid in the microwave, then you must also place a teaspoon in the container. This will ensure that the liquid does not boil suddenly after being removed from the microwave cavity.
  • This phenomenon is called "delayed boiling", this means that a liquid can be close to boiling point, even if there is no steam coming off the liquid or the liquid is not bubbling. If the liquid container is even gently shaken, then the liquid can without warning boil over or even spurt. This could scald the end user.
  • If the food you are cooking has a skin or peel (e.g. sausages, tomatoes, potatoes etc), then you should pierce the skin or peel with a fork. This will ensure that if steam is created during the heating process, it can escape and the food will not burst.
    When heating baby food, the bottle or jar containing the food should NEVER have a top or lid on. After cooking, to ensure that the food has been heated uniformly, you should stir or shake the food. IMPORTANT: You must check the temperature of the food before feeding it to a child.
  • When heating food in a microwave, it will transmit the heat to the container that the food is in or on. You should ALWAYS use oven gloves when removing items from the microwave.
  • You should make sure that you do not cook food for too long or at too high a power level. This could cause certain areas of the food to dry out or even ignite.
  • You should not use ceramic or porcelain crockery, or porous earthenware inside of your microwave. These dishes could absorb moisture from the food whilst it is cooking, which could cause pressure to build up and shatter the dish.
  • If you are heating certain foods and any liquid, moisture will evaporate and condensation may occur. This does not indicate that the appliance is faulty and it can be particularly noticeable if the ambient temperature of the room is high.
  • IMPORTANT: Any condensation should be wiped up with a soft cloth as soon as you have finished using the microwave.
  • After the cooking time has completed, you should let the food stand for a few minutes. This is called "standing time" and will allow the heat generated by the microwave to spread evenly throughout the food.

Materials you can use for microwave cooking

MaterialRemarks
Aluminium foilTo be used for shielding only. Small smooth pieces can be used to cover thin parts of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking. Arcing can occur if foil is too close to the cavity walls. The foil should be at least 2.5 cm away from the cavity walls.
Browning dishFollow the manufacturer's instructions. The bottom of the browning dish must be at least 5 mm thick above the turntable. Incorrect usage may cause the turntable to break.
DinnerwareMicrowave-safe only. Follow the manufacturer's instructions. Do not use cracked or chipped dishes.

Cleaning and maintenance

BAUMATIC BTM31SS - Cleaning and maintenance - 1

text_image Warning symbol with exclamation mark inside triangle

Cleaning operations must only be carried out when the oven is cool.

The appliance should be disconnected from your mains supply before commencing any cleaning process.

The appliance exterior

  • You should wipe over the front of the appliance with a soft cloth and warm water mixed with a little washing up liquid.
  • DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or sharp objects to clean the front surface of the microwave.

The appliance interior

  • You should wipe over the inside of the appliance with a soft cloth and warm water mixed with a little washing up liquid.
  • You should pay particular attention to the door seal and the surrounding area.
  • DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or sharp objects to clean the inside of the microwave.

Turntable and turntable support

  • The glass tray and turntable ring assembly should be removed from the microwave for cleaning purposes after each use.
  • Clean the glass tray and turntable ring assembly in warm water mixed with a little washing up liquid.

General cleaning advice

○ IMPORTANT: Any condensation should be wiped up with a soft cloth as soon as you have finished using the microwave.
To remove odours from inside of the microwave, you should boil one cup of water mixed with several tablespoons of lemon juice inside of the cavity.
- The microwave should be thoroughly cleaned before it is operated for the first time and after each use. This will avoid residual food stuffs becoming baked on the oven cavity. After residues have been baked on several times, they are far more difficult to remove.
- Never clean the oven surfaces by steam cleaning.
- If you use any form of oven cleaner on your appliance, then you must check with the manufacturer of the cleaner that it is suitable for use on your appliance.

- Any damage that is caused to the appliance by a cleaning product will not be fixed by Baumatic free of charge, even if the appliance is within the guarantee period.

○ WARNING: Children should not be allowed near to the appliance unsupervised.
