2. The lower the temperature, the longer the cooking time.
3. Foods containing a lot of liquid heat up more quickly.

dense ones on the centre of the plate, you can heat up different types of
food simultaneously.
5. You can open the oven door at any time. When you do this the oven
switches off automatically. The microwave will only start working again
when you close the door and press the start key.
6. Foods that are covered require less cooking time and retain their
characteristics better. The lids used must let microwaves pass through and
have small holes that allow steam to escape
