How the Microwave Function Works
Microwaves are a form of energy similar to radio, television waves, and ordinary daylight. Normally, microwaves spread outwards as they travel through the atmosphere and disappear without effect. This oven, however, has a magnetron that is designed to make use of the energy in microwaves. Electricity, supplied to the magnetron tube, is used to create microwave energy.
These microwaves enter the cooking area through openings inside the oven. A tray is located inside the oven. Microwaves cannot pass through metal walls of the oven, but they can penetrate such materials as glass, porcelain and paper, the materials out of which microwave-safe cooking dishes are constructed.
Microwaves do not heat cookware, though cooking vessels will eventually get hot from the heat generated by the food.
A very safe appliance
Your Microwave oven, is one of the safest of all home appliances. When the door is opened, the oven automatically stops producing microwaves. Microwave energy is converted completely to heat when it enters food, leaving no “left over” energy to harm you when you eat your food.

CAUTION
1.You cannot operate your oven with the door open due to the safety interlocks built into the door mechanism. It is important not to tamper
with the safety interlocks.
It could result in harmful exposure to excessive microwave energy. (Safety interlocks automatically switch off any cooking activity when the door is opened.)
2.Do not place any object (such as kitchen towels, napkins, etc.) between the oven front face and the door or allow food or cleaner residue to
accumulate on sealing surfaces.
It could result in harmful exposure to excessive microwave energy.
3.Do not operate your oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the:
(1) door(bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) door seals
and sealing surfaces.
It could result in harmful exposure to excessive microwave energy.
4.Please ensure cooking times are correctly set, Small amounts of food require shorter cooking or heating time.
Over cooking may result in the food catching on fire and subsequent damage to your oven.
5.When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces and beverages in your microwave oven,
* Avoid using straight sided containers with narrow necks. |
GB |
*Do not overheat.
*Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway through the heating time.
*After heating, let it stand in the oven for a short time; stir or shake it again carefully and check the temperature of it before consuming to
avoid burns (especially, contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars).
Be careful when handling the container. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling without evidence of bubbling.
