Page 10: About Your Microwave
ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE Thank you for purchasing your Russell Hobbs microwave oven. This stylish large capacity 25 litre Russell Hobbs Microwave features a sleek and modern design with a mirror finish door. It combines microwave cooking with grill power and convection oven enabling you to cook a variety of dishes with just one appliance. - Page 11 ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE How do microwaves work? Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves similar to radio waves. While radio waves may vary in length from one metre to many kilometres, microwaves are very short (less than 12.5 centimetres.) Microwaves do not make any heat themselves but cause water molecules in the food to vibrate.
