hoW a microWavE ovEn Works
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released enables
food to be cooked or reheated without the foods form or colour changing.
You can use your microwave oven to:
•
Defrost (manual & auto)
•
Cook
•
Reheat
Cooking Principle.
1.
The microwaves generated by the magnetron are distributed
uniformly as the food rotates on the turntable. The food is
thus cooked evenly.
2.
The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of
about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then continues as the heat is
dissipated within the food.
3.
Cooking times vary according to the recipient used and the
properties of the food:
•
Quantity and density
•
Water content
•
Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)
As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even
when you have taken the food out of the oven. Standing times specified in recipes
and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:
•
Even cooking of the food right to the centre.
•
The same temperature throughout the food.
