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
• Cook
Cooking Principle.
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.
2. 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.
3. Cooking times vary according to the container used
and the properties of the food:
• Quantity and density
• Water content
• Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)
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

CHECKING THAT YOUR OVEN IS OPERATING
CORRECTLY
The following simple procedure enables you to check that your oven is
working correctly at all times.
First, place a bowl of water on the turntable. Then, close the door.
1. Operate the Microwave mode and set the time to 4
or 5 minutes by pressing the Up and Down button
the appropriate number of times.
2. Press the START button.
Result:
The oven must be plugged into an appropriate wall socket. The turntable
must be in position in the oven. If a power level other than the maximum
is used, the water takes longer to boil.

The oven heats the water for 4 or 5
minutes. The water should then be boiling.
