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 ii/jury
to persolls:
-- Do not overheat the
liquid.
-- Stir the liquid both
heft)re and hall\ray
through heating it.
-- Do not use straight-
sided containers with
narrow necks.
--Alter heating, allow the
container to stand in

necked bottles (especially
carbonated beverages).
Even if the container is
