TIME / WEIGHT

W ater, sugar and fat in food absorb microwaves and causes their molecules to vibrate. This creates heat by friction, in the same way your hands get warm when you rub them together. The outer areas of food are heated by microwave energy and the remaining portions by conduction. It is important to turn, rearrange or stir food to ensure even heating. Where recommended, allow food to stand, this is not optional but is necessary to ensure thorough cooking. It is particularly important for dense food, such as joints of meat.

HOW TO OPERATE THE OVEN

Opening and closing the door:

• To open oven door, press the door opening button.

• The oven lamp will light when the door is open.

• Close the door firmly and the lamp will go out.

MICROW AVE COOKING: EXAMPLE:

NOTES:

• Microwaves pass through non-metallic dishes and utensils and heat the food inside the dishes.

• Microwaves are reflected by metal.

• The oven is lined with metal and has a fine metallic

mesh in the door to prevent microwave leakage.

• Metallic dishes are not suitable for microwaving.

• See SUIT ABLE COOKWARE, page 22-23.

W ARNING:

OVEN COOKING

OVEN (°C)

Your oven can be programmed to cook with seven different temperatures by combining the upper and lower grills.

The temperatures available in degrees Centigrade are:

200°C, 180°C, 160°C, 130°C, 100°C, 70°C, 40°C.

NOTES:

• Oven cooking is ideal for cooking buns, biscuits and scones. See recipes pages 49-50.

• When using the oven facility , all metal cookware can be used. See SUITABLE COOKW ARE pages 22-23. T o

achieve the best results when cooking by OVEN, always use the low metal rack for one layer cooking.

• To convert recipes normally cooked using a convection oven:

• use the OVEN facility

• decrease cooking temperature by approx. 50 - 60°C.

This is necessary due to the additional heat generated during dual operation of the upper and lower grills. If food is not cooked within the normal cooking time, add an extra 5mins then check again.

Repeat this until food is cooked.

EXAMPLE:

– Convection cooking: Apple Pie 220°C for 20 minutes. – OVEN facility: Apple Pie 160°C for 20 minutes.

EXAMPLE:

To bake on the low rack at 160°C for 20 minutes.
