HOW YOUR OVEN WORKS
Microwaves are energy waves, similar to those
used for TV and radio signals.
Electrical energy is converted into microwave
energy, which is directed into the oven cavity via a
waveguide. To prevent food and grease entering
the wave guide it is protected by the waveguide
cover.
Microwaves cannot pass through metal, because of
this the oven cavity is made of metal and there is a
fine metal mesh on the door.
During cooking the microwaves bounce off the
sides of the oven cavity at random.
Microwaves will pass through certain materials,
such as glass and plastic, to heat the food.
(See “Suitable Cookware” on page 24).
Water, sugar and fat in food absorb microwaves
which cause them to vibrate. This creates heat by
friction, in the same way your hands get warm
when you rub them together.
The outer areas of the food are heated by the microwave
energy, then the heat moves to the centre by conduction,
as it does in conventional cooking. It is important to turn,
rearrange or stir food to ensure even heating.
Once cooking is complete, the oven automatically
stops producing microwaves.
Standing time is necessary after cooking, as it enables
the heat to disperse equally throughout the food.
1. When you first connect the microwave oven to an
electrical socket, the digital display will show " . ".
2. Heat the oven without food. (See "HEATING
WITHOUT FOOD” on page 9).
NOTE:
•You can input the keys only when the door is closed.
•Oven lamp works whenever the door is
opened.
SETTING THE SOUND
• After the timer reaches zero " .0", the
cooking mode information will remain on the
display for 3 minutes after you open and
close the door. 3 minutes later, the display
will return to " . ". To clear immediately, press
the STOP/CLEAR key.
• The programme, memory setting or check
mode will be cancelled after 3 minutes
unless a key is pressed.
There are 2 different beep options and silent
mode on your oven.
To select either beep, press the SET key and hold
for 3 seconds, then press the number 1 key for a
long beep, number 2 key for short beeps or press
number 0 key the silent mode.
To keep the desired sound, press the SET key
again.
STOPPING THE OVEN
• If you wish to stop the oven during cooking:
Press the STOP/CLEAR key once, or open the
door.
• If you wish to cancel a programme during
cooking, press the STOP/CLEAR key twice.
• If you wish to erase a mistake during
programming, press the STOP/CLEAR key once.
