I am trying to cook eggs
and they are popping.
What do I do? When you bake or poach eggs, the yolk can pop due to a
build-up of steam inside the yolk membrane. Pierce the yolk
with a toothpick before cooking. Never cook eggs without
first piercing their shells.
My microwave is taking
longer to cook food than
the cooking guide says.
Variations in the size, shape and weight of your food can
affect cooking times.
Cooking guide times and heat settings should be used as
suggestions to help prevent over-cooking. If you find the
cooking time or temperature is not suited to your
ingredients, adjust accordingly.
Can I operate my
microwave without the
glass turntable? No. If you remove the glass turntable you will get poor
cooking results. Ensure that all dishes used in the microwave
fit correctly onto the glass turntable.
What does standing time
mean and why is it
recommended?
Standing time means that food should be removed from the
microwave and allowed to ‘stand’ for an additional time to let
it finish cooking.
This is important because with microwave cooking, the heat
is held in the food, not in the oven. Many foods build up
enough internal heat to allow the cooking process to
continue, even after the food is removed from the oven.
Standing time for joints of meat, large vegetables and cakes
is to allow the inside to cook completely, without
overcooking the outside. Most directions on microwavable
food will note how much standing time is required.
7 - Servicing safeguards - Microwave
radiation
It is hazardous for anyone, other than a qualified service technician, to carry out any
service for repairing operation which involves removal of any cover which gives protection
against exposure to microwave energy.
The temperature of accessible surfaces may be high when the appliance is operating.
The high voltage capacitor remains charged after disconnection; short the negative
terminal of a H.V capacitor to the oven chassis (use a screwdriver) to discharge before
touching.
