consequent superheating of the liquid
can generate an explosion inside the

the superheated liquid can occur
when removing the container from the
appliance. To avoid these dangers, it
is necessary to insert the supplied
boiling rod (or a heat-resistant plastic
spoon) in the container while heating.
