Microwave Heating Categories
Your microwave has been tested and labelled to meet the government’s voluntary agreement on
the reheating of pre-cooked food.
The heating characteristics and output power levels of microwave ovens are usually
calculated using a relatively large portion of food (a 1000 gram load, IEC 705) but many packs
of pre-cooked food are sold in smaller packs, often about 350 grams.
The government, in partnership with food companies and microwave manufacturers, have
set up a system of heating categories to help you choose the reheating time for pre-cooked
food.
700W is the output power of the microwave
oven.
D
is the heating category for your microwave.
Check the cooking times for category
E
on the
food’s packaging to see how long it should
be cooked for. Please see below example for
reference.
To Microwave:
Remove outer packaging.
Pierce film lid SEVERAL TIMES.
