How a Microwave Oven Works
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released
enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the
colour.
You can use your microwave oven to:
◆
Defrost
◆
Instant Reheat/Cook
◆
Cook
Cooking Principle
☛
As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking
continues even when you have taken the food out of the oven.
Standing times specified in recipes and in this booklet must
therefore be respected to ensure:
◆
Even cooking of the food right to the centre
◆
The same temperature throughout the food

Installing Your Microwave Oven
Place the oven on a flat, level surface strong enough to safely bear the weight
of the oven.
✽
This microwave oven has to be positioned so that plug is accessible.
✽
Never block the air vents as the oven may overheat and automatically switch itself off. It will
remain inoperable until it has cooled sufficiently.
✽
For your personal safety, plug the cable into a 3-pin, 230 Volt, 50Hz, AC earthed socket. If
the power cable of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cable
(I-SHENG SP022, KDK KKP4819D, EUROELECTRIC 3410,SAMIL SP-106B, MOONSUNG
EP-48E). Contact your local dealer to have it replaced. The power cable of ISRAEL is
PENCON(ZD16A), S/AFRICA APEX LEADS SA16 and NIGERIA, GHANA, KENYA and
U.A.E is PENCON(UD13A1).
✽
Do not install the microwave oven in hot or damp surroundings like next to a traditional oven
or radiator. The power supply specifications of the oven must be respected and any
extension cable used must be of the same standard as the power cable supplied with the
oven. Wipe the interior and the door seal with a damp cloth before using your microwave
oven for the first time.
1 When you install your oven, make sure there is adequate ventilation for
your oven by leaving at least 10 cm (4 inches) of space behind, and on the
sides of the oven, 20 cm (8 inches) of space above the oven and 85 cm
(thirty three inches) of the floor.
1
The microwaves generated by the magnetron are distributed uniformly as the
food rotates on the turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly.
2
The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of about
1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then continues as the heat is dissipated
within the food.
3
Cooking times vary according to the recipient used and the properties of the
food:
◆
Quantity and density
◆
Water content
◆
Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)
20 cm
above
10 cm
behind
10 cm
of the side
2 Remove all packing materials inside the oven.
Install the roller ring and turntable.
Check that the turntable rotates freely.
Setting the Time (CE2933/2933T/2D33/2D33T)
Your microwave oven has an inbuilt clock. The time can be displayed in either
the 24-hour or 12-hour notation. You must set the clock:
◆
When you first install your microwave oven
◆
After a power failure
➢
Do not forget to reset the clock when you switch to and from summer and
winter time.
