1/ NOTICES TO THE USER
The micro-waves used for cooking are elec-
tro-magnetic waves. They are commonly
found in our environment in the form of radio-
electric waves, light or infrared rays.
Their frequency is in the 2450 MHz range.
Their behaviour:
•
They are reflected by metals.
•
They travel through all other materials.
•
They are absorbed by water, fat and
sugar molecules.
When food is exposed to micro-waves, its
molecules begin moving rapidly, which caus-
es heating.
The penetration depth of waves into the food
is approximately 2.5 cm; if the food is thicker,
the core of the food will be cooked by con-
duction, as in traditional cooking.
It is valuable to note that the micro-waves
trigger within the food a simple thermal phe-
nomenon and that they are not harmful to
one’s health.
