How a microwave oven works

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released
enables food to be cooked or reheated without the foods form or colour changing.
You can use your microwave oven to:
• Defrost (manual & auto)
• Cook
• Reheat
Cooking principle.

NOTE
As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even
when you have taken the food out of the 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.
The microwaves generated by the
magnetron are distributed uniformly as
the food rotates on the turntable.
The food is thus cooked evenly.
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.
Cooking times vary according to the
recipient used and the properties of the
food:
• Quantity and density
• Water content
• Initial temperature
(refrigerated or not)
