Page 11: About Your Microwave
& time, and the microwave cooks your food to perfection. The Russell Hobbs RHM1728RG has a 17 litre cavity capacity, which comfortably fits a standard dinner plate and the glass turn-table is removable for easy cleaning, and is dishwasher safe. - Page 12 ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE How do microwaves work? Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves similar to radio waves. While radio waves may vary in length from one metre to many kilometres, microwaves are very short (less than 12.5 centimetres.) Microwaves do not make any heat themselves but cause water molecules in food to vibrate.
