A note on the type of energy used
by your Microwave Oven
Microwaves are electromagnetic waves that transmit energy. When cooking,
the microwave energy penetrates food to a depth of 4cm (1½ inches), causing its molecules to vibrate. The heat produced by this friction enables food to be heated, cooked or defrosted.
How quickly a microwave oven cooks will depend on the size, quality and
shape of the food being cooked. Microwave cooking is healthy in that, without the need for large amounts of cooking liquid, it means that food retains vitamins, nutrients, aromas and flavour.
Microwave Ovens are also more energy efficient than conventional cooking
because they use up to 70% less energy.
______________________ Never use your Microwave Oven to:
Dry clothes or fabrics
Dry or warm up pets or live animals
Warm or heat any item other than food and the
appropriate utensil
Cook sealed containers
Cook items where you have placed a liquid or
mercury thermometer (eg. Inside roasts or turkeys)
Heat large quantities of cooking oil (fondue or deep
frying) or drinks with high alcohol contents

Placing Your Microwave Oven
o ONCE YOU ARE SURE THAT YOUR OVEN IS NOT DAMAGED (EG. DENTS
OR A BROKEN DOOR) AND THAT THERE ARE NO PACKING MATERIALS AND ACCESSORIES INSIDE IT, YOU CAN THEN INSTALL IT ON A FLAT SURFACE SUCH AS A COUNTERTOP. BE SURE THAT THE SURFACE CAN HOLD AT LEAST YOUR MICROWAVE’S WEIGHT (12.4 kg).
o
BEFORE PLACING ON YOUR COUNTERTOP: REMOVE ANY PROTECTIVE
FILM ON THE CABINET SURFACE.
o BUT DO NOT REMOVE THE LIGHT BROWN MICA COVER THAT IS SCREWED TO
THE OVEN CAVITY TO PROTECT THE MAGNETRON.
o FIND A LEVEL SURFACE THAT PROVIDES ENOUGH OPEN SPACE FOR
THE INTAKE AND OUTLET VENTS.
NOTE: For in-unit installation, please see next page.
o YOU NEED TO LEAVE A MINIMUM OF 3.0 INCHES (7.5 CM) BETWEEN
THE OVEN AND ANY ADJACENT WALL. ONE SIDE MUST BE OPEN TO ALLOW THE DOOR TO OPEN AND CLOSE.
o LEAVE A MINIMUM CLEARANCE OF 12 INCHES (30CM) ABOVE
THE OVEN.
o DO NOT REMOVE THE LEGS FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE OVEN.

Before you Start Cooking with Your Microwave
PLEASE REMEMBER: NOT ALL FOODS AND UTENSILS ARE SUITABLE for use in MICROWAVE OVENS.
FOODS THAT MUST NEVER
o Eggs in their shell or
whole hard-boiled eggs since they may explode, even after your Microwave has stopped heating them.
o Foods that need
deep-frying: your Microwave cannot deep-fry and is liable to present a fire hazard if you attempt to deep fry with it.
o Foods that you intend
to can at home. There is no way of ensuring
BE MICROWAVED:
o Narrow-necked
containers like syrup bottles – the neck could explode.
o Never use your
Microwave when it is empty. This is a fire hazard.
o Sealed liquids and
food containers – these will almost certainly explode – NEVER PLACE THEM IN YOUR MICROWAVE!
that foods intended for home canning have reached the required boiling temperature.
And please be careful with …
Heating liquids and drinks: when you heat liquid using a
Microwave, part of the liquid can exceed boiling point tension is such that it will be susceptible to upward surges. To avoid the risk of being scalded, always handle bowls and cups of heated
liquid steadily and carefully. PLEASE SEE NEXT PAGE FOR FURTHER ADVICE TO AVOID SCALDING!
. Its surface
11
Page 12
Before you Start Cooking with Your Microwave
You can reduce the chances of this happening further by
1. Avoiding using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
2. Not overheating.
3. Stirring the liquid before placing the container in the oven and
again halfway through the heating time.
4. After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a short time, stirring again before carefully removing the container, using a cloth or oven glove.
Likewise, if you are heating feeding bottles and baby food jars always
stir or shake them and then check the temperature before you serve them, to avoid burns. Remember that babies
can be easily scalded!
If you are cooking bacon, do not place it directly on the
turntable as excessive heating may make the turntable likely to break.
Bagged Popcorn – always read the manufacturer’s guidelines before
Microwaving bagged popcorn.
Always pierce foods with non-porous skins to reduce the risk of
them bursting from inside steam build-up; eg: apples, potatoes, chicken livers and egg yolks.
Be sure to make checks on your food during operation to avoid
burning and excessive cooking.
Always be careful when opening partially sealed containers –
there is the risk of steam escaping.
TO TEST WHETHER YOUR UTENSIL IS MICROWAVE SAFE, YOU CAN CONDUCT THE FOLLOWING TEST:
1. Fill a microwave-safe container with 1 cup of cold water (250ml) along with the utensil in question.
2. Cook on maximum power for 1 minute (no longer than this).
3. Carefully feel the utensil; if it is warm, do NOT use it for microwave cooking.

Notes on Microwaving Food
Your Baumatic Microwave Oven features a Grilling and Combination mode. In grilling, heat comes from an element set in the ceiling. This is particularly suitable for toasting & grilling (eg. Steaks & sausages).
In Combination Mode, both the microwave and grilling modes will function. Dishes will be cooked more quickly, whilst being crisp & brown at the same time.

Whenever possible, always cook food covered (but not sealed!). Only pastry dishes with crust should be cooked without a cover.
There are several types of covering suitable for microwave use. Plastic film or glass lids must always be checked to ensure they can be used for microwaving.
Paper towels, napkins & wax paper are useful loose covers that can prevent ‘spitting’ and keep moisture in your food.
If you can’t find cooking details for a specific quantity of food, base the cooking time needed on a similar type of food. You should adjust the cooking time accordingly.
Double quantity = almost double time: half quantity = about half the time. Arrange food carefully. Always place thickest areas towards the outside of the dish.
Watch the cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and only cook for longer if needed after checking your food. Remember that severely overcooked food can smoke or ignite.
Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Turn large items like roasts at least once.
Remember that you will need to allow for standing time after you take your food from your Microwave Oven. Denser foods will take longer to stand to cool properly.
16
Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking, both from top to bottom and from the centre of the dish to the outside.
Remember that refrigerated food will need longer cooking times.
even more time
Frozen food will require
to cook.
Some soft vegetables (eg. cauliflower, carrots, peas) should be cooked with a little water. However, mushrooms, tomatoes and peppers should be cooked without water. Try to cut larger vegetables into even-sized pieces. Always cook vegetables in a covered container and stir them from time to time.
Cook fatty pieces of meat (eg, pork, poultry) on a non metallic grid or inverted saucer inside a suitable container. This will allow the fat to drain away. Cook leaner types of meat on a browning skillet. Be sure to turn once during the cooking time.
Ready meals – always make sure that these are marked as being suitable for microwaving. Follow the instructions as printed on the container such as removing the foil lid or pricking the plastic film.

Use a larger utensil than usual. Opening the door or pressing the ‘STOP/CLEAR’ key will stop boiling.
Make sure that your food or ovenware isn’t extending beyond the turntable.
Make sure the turntable is properly connected & that nothing has become wedged under it.
Remember that many problems can be avoided if you just follow the guidelines for using your Baumatic Microwave Oven. Please see pages 6-7, 11-14 & 16.
