Cooking Instructions On Food Packaging
Microwave Symbols
On the front of your oven there is a microwave oven symbol, as shown below.
This symbol has been introduced for your benefit when cooking or reheating
packaged food.
Packaged food is also, increasingly, using a microwave symbol similar to the one
below.
When you see this
Symbol on food packaging, the cooking instructions are based on either the IEC
Power Output Rating, or the Reheating Categories A, B, C, D or E.
Cooking Instructions
The IEC Power Output rating is an internationally standardised rating, so all
microwave manufacturers now use the same method of measuring power output.
If food packaging gives cooking instructions based on IEC Power ratings, set
cooking times according to the IEC Power of your oven.
For example :
If the cooking instructions are based on a 650W oven, then you will need to reduce
some cooking time for the C108ST/C108STB/C108STT/C108STF/C109ST/
C109STB/C109STT/C109STF (900W)
Ready meals are now very convenient and popular. These are meals which are
already prepared and cooked by the food manufacturer, and then frozen, chilled or
vacuum sealed for long life.
Increasingly, heating times for such ready meals are being based on the Heating
Categories A, B, C, D and E.
On this instance, simply match the heating category of your oven to the
instructions on the food package, and set your timer accordingly.
For example :
If the heating instructions are 3 minutes on HIGH for a D category oven, then you
will need to set your timer for less than 3 minutes on HIGH for the C108ST/
C108STB/C108STT/C108STF/C109ST/C109STB/C109STT/C109STF (E
category).
☛
Always remember that cooking instructions are intended only as a
guide. If you have followed the instructions and the food is still not
piping hot throughout, simply return it to the oven and cook it until
it is.
