Microwave oven use

How a microwave oven works

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released
enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the
colour.
You can use your microwave oven to:
• Defrost
• Reheat
• C ook
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 microwave 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.

1. The microwaves generated by the
magnetron reflected at cavity and
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). C ooking then continues as the
heat is dissipated within the food.
C ooking times vary according to the

container used and the properties of
the food:
• Quantity and density
• Water content
• Initial temperature (refrigerated
or not)
