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
•
Reheat
•
Cook
Cooking principle.
1.
The microwaves generated by the magnetron
reflected at cavity and 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 container
used and the properties of the food:
• Quantity and density
• Water content
• Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)
NOTE
As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even when you
have taken the food out of the microwave 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.
Checking that your microwave oven is operating correctly
The following simple procedure enables you to check that your microwave oven is working
correctly at all times. If you are in doubt, refer to the section entitled
on the pages
NOTE
The microwave oven must be plugged into an appropriate wall socket. The turntable must be
in position in the microwave oven. If a power level other than the maximum (100 % - 900 W)
is used, the water takes longer to boil.
NOTE
When power is supplied and whenever you are not using the microwave oven, current time is
displayed on the display.
Open the microwave oven door by pulling the handle on the upper side of the door.
Place a glass of water on the turntable. Close the door.
Press the
Start/+30s
button and set the time to
4 or 5 minutes, by pressing the
Start/+30s
button
the appropriate number of times.
Result:
The microwave oven heats the water for
4 or 5 minutes. The water should then
be boiling.
