About microwave energy

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves. The oven uses its built-in
magnetron to generate microwaves which cook or reheat food without deforming
or discolouring the food.
NOTE
The cooked food keeps heat in its core after cooking is complete. This is why you
must observe the standing times specified in this manual, which ensure that the
food is cooked evenly down to the core.
The microwaves generated by the
1.
magnetron are distributed uniformly by
the whirling distribution system. This is
why the food is cooked evenly.
2. The microwaves are absorbed into the
food up to a depth of approximately
1 inch (2.5 cm). Then, the microwaves
are dissipated inside the food as
cooking continues.
3. The cooking time is affected by the
following conditions of the food:
• Quantity and density
• Moisture content
• Initial temperature (especially,
when frozen)
