THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THE MICROWAVE
o
Your appliance works through microwave radiation which heats the water particles
in food in a very short time. There is no radiation of heat and therefore hardly any
browning. As a result, the appliance is not suitable for drying purposes.
o
Only warm up foodstuff with this appliance.
o
The appliance is not suitable for deep fat frying / cooking.
o
Do not try to heat up overly large quantities, otherwise the appliance becomes less
efficient.
o
Microwaves work at full capacity instantly. It is therefore not necessary to preheat
the food.
o
The microwave oven does not replace your conventional oven. It is used mainly for:
defrosting frozen food
quickly warming up food or drinks
conditional cooking of food
o
Only use suitable cookware such as:
Glass, porcelain, ceramics, heat-proof plastic or special microwave containers.
