Setting Up Your Oven

Microwave cooking principles

1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron are evenly distributed through the food as the glass turntable revolves. This ensures that the food is cooked uniformly.

2. The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of approximately 1 inch (2.5cm). Cooking continues as the heat is dissipated through the food.

3. Cooking times will vary according to the recipe and the density , weight and water content of the food. The cooking time will also vary according to the temperature at the start of cooking, i.e. depending on whether the food is frozen or not.

Microwave Food packaging Symbols

Microwave Symbols: On the front of your oven there is a microwave symbol, as shown below. This symbol has been introduced for your benefit when cooking or reheating packaged food. Packaged food is also increasingly using a microwave symbol similar to the one below. When you see this symbol on food packaging the cooking instructions are based on either IEC Power Output Rating, on the Reheating Categories A,B,C,D or E.
