ABOUT MICROWAVES
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves that have a warming effect on
the food in the cooking area (10). Microwaves heat all non-metallic objects. Therefore,
do not use any metallic objects in microwave mode. This heating effect works better the
higher the water content of the foodstuff.
To ensure optimal distribution of heat, let heated dishes stand for a minute or two in the
microwave oven after cooking.
The eff ect of microwaves on foodstuff s
• Microwaves penetrate foodstuffs to a depth of around 3 cm.
• They heat up water, fat and sugar molecules (foodstuffs with a high water content
are heated the most intensively).
• This heat then works its way – slowly – throughout the food and has a defrosting,
heating and cooking effect on the food.
• The cooking area and the air in the oven are not heated (the food container is mainly
heated by the hot food).
• Each foodstuff requires a certain amount of energy to cook or defrost. As a rule of
thumb we can say: High output – short time or low output – long time.
Microwaves
• A microwave generator, known as the magnetron, generates the microwaves and di-
rects them into the cooking area.
• The inner walls and the viewing window reflect the microwaves inwards so that they
cannot escape from the cooking area.
• The microwave output and the cooking time can be set in several steps.
