Cooking with Your Oven
Microwave
Microwaves are a form of high
frequency electromagnetic waves
similar to those used by a radio.
Electricity is converted into microwave
power by the magnetron tube. The
microwaves travel from the magnetron
tube to the oven cavity where they are
re
fl
ected, transmitted and absorbed.
Your microwave oven is equipped with
ten power levels. This variety of settings
offers you
fl
exibility in microwave
cooking.

Bake
The convection bake oven has a
heating element in the ceiling equipped
with a fan to circulate the hot air into
the oven cavity. This mode of cooking
will provide the dry heat required
to produce crisp, brown exteriors
on baked and roasted products.
Temperatures range from
200-450ºF
(100-230°C)
.
Consult charts and recipes to determine
temperature settings and cooking times.
Many of your favourite recipes may
be baked at their usual temperature,
however, times may be slightly shorter.
