Welcome to Panasonic Microwave Cooking
Thank you for purchasing a Panasonic
Microwave Oven.
Even if this is not your first microwave oven,
do please read the opening chapters of this
cookbook to achieve perfect results every
time.
This microwave oven has the benefit of the
Inverter System Inside. This technology has
been in use with microwave ovens in Japan
for many years, improving the cooking
performance of the oven. It also means that
you benefit from having more space inside
your oven, without taking up more room on
your work surface.
Microwaves leave most foods tastier and
leave you with less washing up, but donʼt
expect to become a perfect microwave cook
overnight – some of the methods are very
different to those used in conven tion al
cooking. Home Economists program the
ovens especially for the UK market. The
recipes are also tested many times to ensure
you achieve successful results at home.
We hope you enjoy using your new oven but
should you require any further help or
explanation, phone our:

Home economists will provide friendly
guidance on queries relating to recipes and
