    Display When power is first supplied to the microwave oven, “0” will appear in the display. If the “0” appears in the display at any other time, a power failure has occurred. Reset the clock if needed. When the microwave oven is in use, the display shows cooking power, quantities, weights and/or prompts.
  • Page 7: Microwave Oven Use

    A magnetron in the microwave oven produces microwaves which reflect off the metal floor, walls and ceiling and pass through the turntable and appropriate cookware to the food. Microwaves are attracted to and absorbed by fat, sugar and water molecules in the food, causing them to move, producing friction and heat which cooks the food.
  • Page 8: Aluminum Foil And Metal

    Aluminum Foil and Metal Always use oven mitts or pot holders when removing dishes from the microwave oven. Aluminum foil and some metal can be used in the microwave oven. If not used properly, arcing (a blue flash of light) can occur and cause damage to the microwave oven.
