Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven

This section discusses the concepts behind microwave cooking. It also shows you the basics you need to know to operate your microwave oven. Please read this information before you use your oven.

How your microwave oven works

Microwave ovens are safe. Microwave energy is not hot. It

causes food to make its own heat, and it’s this heat that cooks the food.

Microwaves are like TV waves, radio waves, or light waves. You cannot see them, but you can see what they do.

A magnetron in the microwave oven produces microwaves. The

microwaves move into the oven where they contact food as it turns on the lurnlable.

The glass turntable of your microwave oven lets microwaves

pass through. Then they bounce off a metal floor, back through the glass turntable, and are absorbed by the food.

Microwaves pass through most glass, paper, and plastics

without heating them so food absorbs the energy. Microwaves bounce off metal containers so food does not absorb the energy.

Magnetron

Radio interference

Using your microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV, or similar equipment. When there is interference, you can reduce it or remove it by:

• Cleaning the door and sealing surfaces of the oven.

• Adjusting the receiving antenna of the radio or television.

• Moving the receiver away from the microwave oven.

• Plugging the microwave oven into a different outlet so that the microwave oven and receiver are on

different branch circuits.

For the best cooking results

• Always cook food for the shortest cooking time recommended. Check to see how the food is cooking. If

needed, touch Add Minute while the oven is operating or after the cooking cycle is over (see the “Using

add minute” section).

' Stir, turn over, or rearrange the food being cooked about halfway through the cooking lime for all recipes.

This will help make sure the food is evenly cooked.

‘ If you do not have a cover for a dish, use wax paper, or microwave-approved paper towels or plastic

wrap. Remember to turn back a corner of the plastic wrap to vent steam during cooking.

Cookware guide

Most heat resistant, nonmetalllc cookware Is safe for use In your microwave oven. However, to test

cookware before using, follow these steps;

1. Place the empty cookware in the microwave oven.

2. Measure 1 cup {250ml) water in a glass measuring cup and place it in the oven beside the cookware.

3. Microwave on 100% power for 1 minute.lf the dish is warm,it should not be used for microwave cooking.

Operating safety precautions

• Never lean on the door or allow a child to swing on it when the door is open.

• Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not heat containers, but the heat from the food can make the

container hot.

• Do not use newspaper or other printed paper in the oven.

• Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, paper, gourds, or clothes in the oven.

• Do not start a microwave oven when it is empty. Product life may be shortened. If you practice programming

the oven, put a container of water in the oven. It is normal for the oven door to look wavy after the oven has been running for a while.

• Do not try to melt paraffin wax in the oven. Paraffin wax will not melt in a microwave oven because it allows

microwaves to pass through it.

• Do not operate the microwave oven unless the glass turntable is securely in place and can rotate freely. The

turntable can rotate in either direction. Make sure the turntable is correct-side up in the oven. Handle your

turntable with care when removing it from the oven to avoid possibly breaking it. If your turntable cracks or

breaks, contact your dealer for a replacement.

• When you use a browning dish, the browning dish bottom must be at least 3/16 inch above the turntable.

Follow the directions supplied with the browning dish.

• Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst, and possibly damage the oven. Slice hard-boiled eggs before heating. In rare cases, poached eggs have been known to explode. Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time of one minute before cutting into them.

• For best results, stir any liquid several times during heating or reheating. Liquids heated in certain containers (especially containers shaped like cylinders) may become overheated. The liquid may splash out

with a loud noise during or after heating or when adding ingredients (coffee granules, tea bags, etc.). This can

harm you or damage the microwave oven.

• Microwaves may not reach the center of a roast. The heat spreads to the center from the outer, cooked areas just as in regular oven cooking. This is one of the reasons for letting some foods (for example, roasts or baked potatoes) stand for a while after cooking, or for stirring some foods during the cooking time.

• Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable utensils are not suitable and it is difficult to maintain appropriate

deep-frying temperatures.

• Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended cooking time, potatoes should be slightly firm because they will continue cooking during standing time. After microwaving, let potatoes stand for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.

Electrical connection

If your electric power line or outlet voltage is less than 110 volts, cooking times may be longer. Have a

qualified electrician check your electrical system.
