microwave oven cavity to overheat and
may cause the microwave oven to smoke
or catch fire.
• The microwave oven should be cleaned
regularly and any food splattering inside
the cavity should be removed. Failure to
maintain the microwave oven in a clean
condition could lead to deterioration of the
surface, adversely affecting the life of the
microwave oven and possibly resulting in
a hazardous situation.
• If the door seals or any of the microwave
oven is damaged, the microwave oven
must not be operated until it has been
inspected and/or repaired at an authorised
Breville Service Centre.
• The microwave oven is intended for
heating food and beverages. Drying of food
or clothing and heating or warming pads,
slippers, sponges, damp cloth and similar
may lead to risk of injury, ignition or fire.
• Ensure all food containers and/or plates
are suitable for use in the microwave oven.
This should be done prior to preparing food
for heating or cooking in the microwave
oven. Monitor foods and liquids heating or
cooking in the microwave oven at all times
due to the possibility of containers igniting.

suitable for use in the microwave oven but
may be coated in a glaze that will absorb
the microwave energy, overheat and cause
the container to crack. The glaze may also
prevent the food from heating/cooking.
• Food and/or liquids should not be heated
or cooked directly on the glass turntable.
Food and/or liquids must be placed into a
suitable microwave-proof container before
placing onto the glass turntable.
• Food and/or liquids should not be heated
or cooked in plastic or paper containers or
bags, unless specified a suitable for use by

HINTS & TIPS
HINTS & TIPS
INTRODUCTION TO
MICROWAVE COOKING
• Microwaves are invisible waves of
electromagnetic energy similar to radio
waves. Instead of being converted to
sound as in a radio or mobile phones, it is
converted into a heat source which heats
food from the inside.
• Microwaves cook because food molecules
of water, fat and sugar react to the energy
provided by the microwaves. That
energy is absorbed by the food causing
the molecules to vibrate quickly. This
movement creates friction which causes
the food to heat up and therefore cook.
• The energy in a microwave is not
distributed evenly throughout the cavity.
The turntable rotates constantly while
cooking which prevents uneven cooking.
• Microwave cooking is considered the
“cool” cooking method as only the food
gets hot and surrounding air stays cool.
• Microwaves are safe and economical on
electricity with savings up to 50%.
• Ovens need no preheating therefore
the kitchen stays cooler. Cooking is
cleaner with less odours and washing up
is reduced.
• Microwave ovens cook foods rapidly, some
foods are better cooked in a microwave
oven as they retain more flavour, texture
and goodness, such as plain fish fillets, soft
fruit, vegetables and fat free cakes.
• In a microwave the heat is produced
INSIDE the food. In all other conventional
cooking methods, heat is applied from
OUTSIDE through transference of heat by
convection or radiation.
• Microwave energy penetrates the food to
a depth of about 25mm. Small foods under
5cm in diameter such as eggs are
penetrated to the centre from all sides.
In larger foods, energy creates heat in the
outer layer; this then moves to the centre
by conduction, as it does with
conventional cooking.
SOME IMPORTANT TIPS FOR
MICROWAVE COOKING
To help equalize energy in the food so that it
cooks evenly follow these helpful tips.
1. Arrange foods with varying size ends, such
as chicken drumsticks and broccoli with
the thicker or tougher part positioned to
the outside of the dish. This ensures the
parts that require more cooking will receive
more energy, so the food will cook evenly.
2. Covering the dish during cooking holds
in the heat and steam to speed up cooking
time. Use a microwave safe lid or plastic
wrap that has been vented by turning back
one edge at the side of the dish to form a
narrow vent to release excess steam.
3. Choose cooking dishes that are shallow
and preferably have straight sides. Shallow
dishes enable the food to cook faster and
straight edges prevent the edges from
being overcooked.
4. Arrange individual items such as ramekins
or whole potatoes around the outside of
the turntable. Make sure to leave space
between items so the energy can penetrate
from all sides.
5. Use round shaped microwave dishes.
Round shapes cook more evenly than
square or rectangle dishes which absorb
most of the energy in the corners causing
food to overcook and toughen.
6. Heat breads, biscuits or oily food on the
crisper pan or paper towel. This prevents
the build up of steam between food and
glass turntable, keeping surfaces crisp and
dry. Cover foods with paper toweling to
prevent splatters.
7. Stir foods from the outside to centre of
the dish once or twice during cooking to
equalize heat and speed microwaving.
8. Turn medium to large food items over
twice during microwaving. This enables
even exposure to microwaves.
40
Page 42
CARE & CLEANING
9. Elevating some types of food such as cakes,
roast vegetables and dough products can
be advantageous. It allows more energy
to penetrate the food from all sides, base
and top. Use a microwave safe plastic or
ceramic rack. If a rack is unavailable, use
an upturned bowl or cup to elevate plates
of food.
10. Do not elevate any special browning
dishes, jugs of sauce or custard, small
quantities of food or mugs of beverages.
11. Internal temperatures of foods continue
to rise so that they continue cooking even
after they have been removed from the
microwave oven. It is better to undercook
food as it will continue to cook once
removed from the microwave.
MICROWAVE UTENSILS
• Containers, plates, dishes, etc. used in
the microwave oven should always be
microwave–safe. Check if stated on the
underside of the utensil or contact the
manufacturer.
• To test if a container, plate or dish
is microwave–safe, place it into the
microwave oven with 1 cup of cold water
(in a microwave–safe cup) and heat on
High (100%) Power for 1 minute. If the
container is hot and the water is cold, the
container is not suitable for microwave
oven use. If the container is cold and the
water is hot, then the container is suitable
for microwave oven use.
• Microwave-safe cookware will not become
hot by the microwave energy, but it will
become hot from contact with hot food.
When the food becomes hot, some of this
heat is transferred to the dish. Always use
oven mitts or clothes to remove hot dishes
from the microwave.
• Metal containers and utensils should not
be used in the microwave oven unless
provided with BMO700 microwave oven.
CARE & CLEANING
• Switch off the microwave oven at the power
outlet and remove the plug from the power
outlet before cleaning.
• Keep the inside of the
clean. When food splatters or spilled
liquids adhere to the microwave oven
internal walls, wipe with a damp cloth.
Mild detergent may be used if the cavity
gets very dirty. Avoid the use of spray and
other harsh cleaners as they may stain,
streak or dull the door surface.
• The outside surfaces should be cleaned
with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to
the operating parts inside the microwave
oven cavity, water should not be allowed to
seep into the ventilation openings.
• Wipe the door and window on both sides of
the door seals and adjacent parts frequently
with a damp cloth to remove any spills or
spatters. Do not use an abrasive cleaner.
• Do not allow the control panel to become
wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. When
cleaning the control panel, leave the
microwave oven door open to prevent it
from accidentally turning on.
• If steam accumulates inside or around the
outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft
dry cloth. This may occur when cooking
foods high in moisture or if the microwave
oven is operated under high humidity
conditions, this is normal.
• It is occasionally necessary to remove the
glass turntable for cleaning. Wash the glass
turntable in warm soapy water, rinse in
clean water and dry thoroughly.
• The turntable roller and microwave oven
floor should be cleaned regularly to ensure
the glass turntable rotates correctly and
avoids making excessive noise. Simply wipe
the bottom surface of the microwave with a
soft damp cloth. The turntable roller may be
washed in mild soapy water, rinse in clean
water and dry thoroughly. When removing
the turntable roller from the cavity floor
for cleaning, be sure to replace in the
proper position.

the microwave oven upright.
BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE
• Check to ensure that the oven is plugged
in securely. If it is not, remove the plug
from the power outlet, wait 10 seconds and
plug it in again securely.
• Check for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped
main circuit breaker. If these seem to be
operating properly, test the power outlet
with another appliance.
• Check to ensure that the control panel is
programed correctly and the timer is set.
• Check to ensure that the door is securely
closed engaging the door safety lock
system. Otherwise, the door safety lock
system will prevent the microwave from
switching on.
NOTE
