HOW A MICROWAVE OVEN WORKS

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released

enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the

color.

You can use your microwave oven to:

- Defrost

- Instant reheat

- Cook

Cooking Principle

1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron are distributed uniformly as the

food rotates on the turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly.

2. The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of about 1 inch

(2.5 cm). Cooking then continues as the heat is dissipated within the food.

3. Cooking times vary according to the receptacle used and the properties of the

food.

- Quantity and density.

- Water Content

- Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)

As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even

when you have taken the food out of the oven. Standing times specified in recipes

and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:

- Even cooking of the food right to the centre

- The same temperature throughout the food

CHECKING THAT YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN IS OPERATING

CORRECTLY

1. First place a bowl of water on the turntable.

2. Set the power level to high by turning Cooking Power Control knob.

3. Set the time to 4-5 minutes by turning the Timer knob. The oven must be

plugged into an appropriate wall socket. The turntable must be in position in

the oven. If a power level other than the maximum is used, the water takes

longer to boil.
