Questions And Answers

Q : Can I open the door when the oven is operating?
A : The door can be opened anytime during the heating operation. The microwave energy
will be instantly switched off and the time setting will maintain until the door is closed
and START is touched.
Q : Why do I have moisture in my microwave oven after heating?
A : The moisture on the side walls of your microwave oven is normal. It is caused by
steam while heating food.
Q : Does microwave energy pass through the viewing screen in the door?
A : No. The metal screen refl ects the energy back into the oven cavity. The holes in the
door are made to allow light to pass through. No microwave energy passes through.
Q : Why do eggs sometimes pop?
A : When baking or poaching eggs, the yolk may pop due to steam build-up inside the
yolk membrane. To prevent this, simply pierce the yolk with a toothpick before heating.
Never heat eggs without piercing their shells.
Q : Why is standing time recommended after the heating operation has been completed?
A : Standing time is very important.
With microwave heating, the heat is in the food, not in the oven. Many foods build
up enough internal heat to allow the heating process to continue, even after food is
removed from the oven. Standing time for joints of meat, large vegetables and cakes
allows the inside to heat completely, without overheating the outside.
Q : What does "standing time" mean?
A : "Standing time" means that food should be removed from the oven and covered for
additional time to allow heating to fi nish (usually a few minutes).
Q : Will the microwave oven be damaged if it is operated while empty?
A : Yes. Never run it empty.
