  • Page 24: Questions And Answers

    QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Q: Can the oven be used with the glass tray or roller guide removed? A: No. Both the glass tray and roller guide must always be used in the oven before cooking. Q: Can I open the door when the oven is operating? A: The door can be opened anytime during the cooking operation. Then microwave energy will be instantly switched off and the time setting will maintain until the door is closed and START is pressed. Q: Why do I have moisture in my microwave oven after cooking? A: The moisture on the side of your microwave oven is normal. It is caused by steam from cooking food hitting the cool oven surface.
  • Page 25: Cooking Instructions

    Q: Is it normal for the turntable to turn in either direction? A: Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, depending on the rotation of the motor when the cooking cycle begins. Q: Can I pop popcorn in my microwave oven? How do I get the best results? A: Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn following manufactures guidelines or use the preset POPCORN pad. Do not use regular paper bags. Use the “listening test” by stopping the oven as soon as the popping slows to a “pop” every 1 or 2 seconds. Do not repop unpopped kernels. Do not pop popcorn in glass cookware. COOKING INSTRUCTIONS Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens. To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to penetrate the food, without being reflected or absorbed by the dish used. Care must therefore be taken choosing the utensil. If the utensil is marked microwave-safe, you do not need to worry. The following table lists various utensil and indicates whether and how they should be used in a microwave oven.

Plastic • Containers Particularly if heat-resistant thermoplastic.  Some other plastics may warp or discolour at high temperatures. Do not use Melamine plastic. • Cling film  Can be used to retain moisture. Should not touch the food. Take care when removing the film as hot steam will escape. • Freezer bags Only if boilable or oven-proof. Should not be airtight. Prick  with a fork, if necessary. Wax or grease-proof paper Can be used to retain moisture and prevent spattering.
  • Page 27: Microwaving Principles

    Food Always use the minimum recipe cooking time. It is better to undercook rather than overcook foods. Undercooked foods can be returned to the oven for more cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be done. Heat small quantities of food or foods with low moisture carefully. These can quickly dry out, burn or catch on fire. Do not heat eggs in the shell. Pressure may build up and eggs can explode. Potatoes, apples, egg yolks and sausages are examples of food with nonporous skins. These must be pierced before cooking to prevent bursting. Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven. Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off to allow the temperature to even out, stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after heating. Do not leave the oven unattended while popping corn. Do not pop corn in a paper bag unless it is the commercially prepared Microwave Popcorn product. The kernels can overheat and ignite a brown paper bag. Do not put packaged Microwave Popcorn bags directly on the oven tray. Place the package on a microwave safe glass or ceramic plate to avoid overheating and cracking the oven tray. Do not exceed the Microwave Popcorn manufacturers suggested popping time. Longer popping does not yield more popcorn but it can result in scorch, burn of fire. Remember, the Popcorn bag and tray can be too hot to handle. Remove with caution and use pot holders. Ensure all food deposits are cleaned off, as they can carbonize if left. ARCING If you see arcing, press the STOP/CLEAR button and correct the problem. Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is caused by: • Metal or foil pressing the side of the oven. • Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennas). • Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold rimmed dishes, in the microwave. • Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being used in the microwave. MICROWAVING PRINCIPLES Microwave energy has been used in this country to cook and reheat food since early experiments with RADAR in World War ll. Microwaves are present in the atmosphere all the time, both naturally and manmade sources. Manmade sources include radar, radio, television, telecommunication links and car phones.

  • Page 28 HOW MICROWAVES COOK FOOD Microwave oven is a Group 2 ISM equipment in which radiofrequency energy is intentionally generated and used in the form of electromagnetic radiation for the treatment of material. This oven is a Class B equipment suitable for use in domestic establishments and in establishments directly connected to a low voltage power supply network which supplies buildings used for domestic purposes. In a microwave oven, electricity is converted into microwave by the MAGNETRON. Oven Cavity Magnetron Waveguide Turntable  REFLECTION The microwaves bounce off the metal walls and the metal door screen.  TRANSMISSION Then they pass through the cooking containers to be absorbed by the water molecules in the food, all foods contain water to a more or lesser extent.  ABSORPTION The microwaves cause the water molecules to vibrate which causes FRICTION, i.e. HEAT. This heat then cooks the food. Microwaves are also attracted to fat and sugar particles, and foods high in these will cook more quickly.

  • Page 30 SHAPE Even shapes cook evenly. Food cooks better by microwave when in a round container rather than square. SPACING Foods cook more quickly and evenly if spaced apart. NEVER pile foods on top of each other. STARTING TEMPERATURE The colder the food, the longer it takes to heat up. Food from a fridge takes longer to reheat than food at room temperature. LIQUIDS All liquids must be stirred before and during heating. Water especially must be stirred before and during heating, to avoid eruption. Do not heat liquids that have previously been boiled. DO NOT OVERHEAT. TURNING & STIRRING Some foods require stirring during cooking. Meat and poultry should be turned after half the cooking time. ARRANGING Individual foods e.g. chicken portions or chops, should be placed on a dish so that the thicker parts are towards the outside. QUANTITY Small quantities cook faster than large quantities, also small meals will reheat more quickly than large portions. PIERCING The skin or membrane on some foods will cause steam to build up during cooking. These foods must be pierced or a strip of skin should be peeled off before cooking to allow the steam to escape. Eggs, potatoes, apples, sausages etc, will all need to be pierced before cooking. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BOIL EGGS IN THEIR SHELLS. COVERING Cover foods with microwave cling film or a lid. Cover fish, vegetables, casseroles, soups. Do not cover cakes, sauces, jacket potatoes or pastry DEFROSTING GUIDE items. EN - 28 Copyright © 2020, Fast ČR, a. s. Revision 12/2020...
  • Page 31: Defrosting Guide

    DEFROSTING GUIDE Do not defrost covered meat. Covering might allow cooking to take place. Always remove outer wrap and tray. Use only containers that are microwave-safe. Begin defrosting whole poultry breast-side-down. Begin defrosting roasts fat-side-down. The shape of the package alters the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular shapes defrost more quickly than a deep block. After 1/3 of the defrost time has elapsed, check the food. Toy may wish to turn over, break apart, rearrange or remove thawed portions of the food. During defrost, the oven will prompt you to turn the over. At this point, open oven door and check the food. Follow the techniques listed below for optimum defrost results. Then, close oven door. When defrosted, food should be cool, but softened in all areas. If still slightly icy, return to microwave oven very briefly, or let stand a few minutes. After defrosting, allow food to stand 5-60 minutes if there are any icy areas. Poultry and fish may be placed under running cool water until defrosted • Turn over: Roast, ribs, whole poultry, turkey breasts, hot dogs, sausages, steaks, or chops. • Rearrange: Break apart or separate steaks, chops, hamburger patties, ground meat, chicken or seafood pieces, chunks of meat such as stew beef. • Shield: Use small strips of aluminum foil to protect thin areas or edges of unevenly shaped foods such as chicken wings. To prevent arching, do not allow foil to come within 1-inch of oven walls or door. • Remove: To prevent cooking, thawed portions should be removed from the oven at this point. This may shorten defrost time for food weighing less than 3 lbs.(1350g). EN - 29 Copyright © 2020, Fast ČR, a. s. Revision 12/2020...
