PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MI­CROWAVE ENERGY

Failure to observe the following safety precautions may result in harmful exposure to micro­wave energy.

(a) Under no circumstances should any attempt be made to operate the oven with the door

open or to tamper with the safety interlocks (door latches) or to insert anything into the
safety interlock holes.

(b) Do not place any object between the oven door and front face or allow food or cleaner resi-

dues to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Ensure that the door and door sealing surfaces
are kept clean by wiping after use first with a damp cloth and then with a soft dry cloth.

(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged until it has been repaired by a qualified microwave

service technician trained by the manufacturer. It is particularly important that the oven door
closes properly and that there is no damage to the:

(1) Door (bent)
(2) Door hinges (broken or loose)
(3) door seals and sealing surfaces

(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone other than a properly qualified

microwave service technician trained by the manufacturer.

How a Microwave Oven Works

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released
enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the
colour.

You can use your microwave to:

• Defrost

• Cook

Cooking Principle

1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron are
distributed uniformly by using stirrer distribution system.
The food is thus cooked evenly.

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

3. Cooking times vary according to the container used
and the properties of the food:

• Quantity and density

• Water content

• Initial temperature (Refrigerated or not)

Important

As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even when you
have taken the food out of the oven.

Standing times specified in recipes and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:

• Even cooking of the food right to the centre

• The same temperature throughout the food

Using Microwave Mode

EN

Microwaves are high frequency electromagnetic waves. In microwave cooking,
microwave energy penetrates food, attracted and absorbed by its water, fat and
sugar content. The microwaves cause the molecules in the food to move rapidly.

The rapid movement of these molecules creates friction and the resulting heat
cooks the food.

Microwave Cooking Guide

GENERAL GUIDELINES

Food Suitable for Microwave Cooking

Many kinds of food are suitable for microwave cooking, including fresh or frozen vegetables,
fruit, pasta, rice, grains, beans, fish, and meat. Sauces, custard, soups, steamed puddings,
preserves, and chutneys can also be cooked in a microwave oven. Generally speaking, micro­wave cooking is ideal for any food that would normally be prepared on a hob.

Covering During Cooking

Food should be covered during cooking, as the evaporated water rises as steam and contrib­utes to cooking process. Food can be covered in different ways such as with a ceramic plate,
plastic cover or microwave suitable cling film.

Standing Times

After cooking, it is important to let food stand for recommended standing time to allow the
temperature to even out within the food.

COOKING GUIDE FOR FROZEN VEGETABLES

Use a suitable glass Pyrex bowl with lid. Cook covered for the minimum time (see table).
Continue cooking to get the result you prefer. Stir twice during cooking and once after cooking.
Add salt, herbs or butter after cooking. Keep covered during standing time.

REHEATING

Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time a conventional oven takes.

Arranging and Covering

Avoid reheating large items such as joints of meat since they tend to overcook and dry out
before the centre is piping hot. You will have more success reheating smaller pieces. Keeping
food covered while heating will also help prevent drying.

Power Levels

Different power levels can be used for reheating foods.
In general, for large quantities of delicate food or foods that heat up quickly, such as mince

pies, it is better to use a lower power level.

Stirring

Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir again before
serving. Stirring is especially important when heating liquids.

Heating and Standing Times

When reheating food for the first time, it is helpful to make a note of the time taken for future
reference. Avoid overheating. If uncertain, it is preferable to underestimate cooking time. Then
extra heating time can be added, if necessary. Always make sure that reheated food is piping
hot throughout. Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating to let the temperature even
out. The recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes

34

EN

35

Using Microwave Mode (Continued)

REHEATING LIQUIDS

Take special care when heating liquids. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding,
place a spoon or glass stick in the beverage. Stir during heating and always stir after heating.

Allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off to allow the
temperature to even out.

REHEATING BABY FOOD

Baby Food

Extra caution should also be exercised when reheating baby foods. Put food into deep ce­ramic plate. Cover with plastic lid. Stir well after reheating. Let stand for 2 - 3 minutes before
serving. Stir again and check temperature. Recommended serving temperature is between 30
– 40 °C.

Baby Milk

Pour milk into a sterilised glass bottle. Reheat uncovered. Never heat a baby’s bottle with
nipple on, as the bottle may explode if overheated. Shake well before standing time and again
before serving. Always carefully check the temperature of baby milk or food before serving.

Recommended serving temperature is 37 °C.

DEFROSTING

Microwaves are an excellent way of defrosting frozen food. Microwaves gently defrost frozen
food in a short period of time. This can be a great advantage, if unexpected guests suddenly
show up.

Frozen poultry must be thoroughly thawed before cooking. Remove any metal ties and take it
out of any wrapping to allow thawed liquid to drain away.

Put the frozen food on a dish without cover. Turn over half way, drain off any liquid and remove
any giblets as soon as possible.

Check the food occasionally to make sure that it does not feel warm.
If smaller and thinner parts of the frozen food start to warm up, they can be shield by wrapping

very small strips of aluminium foil around them during defrosting.
Should poultry start to warm up on the outer surface, STOP / CANCEL thawing and allow it to

stand for 20 minutes before continuing.
Leave the fish, meat and poultry to stand in order to complete defrosting.
The standing time for complete defrosting will vary depending on the quantity defrosted.
Please refer to the table on the next page.

Hint Flat food is defrosted better than thicker items, and smaller quantities need less

time than bigger ones. Remember this hint while freezing and defrosting food.

For defrosting of frozen food with a temperature of about -18 to - 20 °C, use the following table
as a guide.

Frozen foods should be defrosted using defrosting power level (180 W).
