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.

least 8 cm from the front edge of the surface to prevent tipping.

An exhaust outlet is located on the bottom and side of the oven. Blocking the outlet can damage the oven.

Do not use the microwave oven in an enclosed space or cupboard, The air flow for cooling the product could be compromised. It may result in lower performance and reduced service life and possible malfunction due to overheating.

Button recognition may be hampered in the foll owing circumstances:

• Only the outside area of the button is pressed.

•

The button is pushed using a nail or the tip of the finger.

NOTE

Do not use rubber gloves or disposable gloves. When wiping the touch control panel with a wet towel, remove moisture from the touch control panel

when finished.

The setting of the cooking time should be shorter than common microwave ovens (700 W, 800 W) due to

the relatively high output power of the product. Excessive heating of food product may cause moisture on the door. This is not a malfunction.

All of the recipes in this book give a range of cooking times. In general, you will find that the food remains

under-cooked at the lower end of the time range, and you may sometimes want to cook your food beyond the maximum time given, according to personal preference. The governing philosophy of this book is that it is best for a recipe to be conservative in giving cooking times because overcooked food is undesirable.
