Page 7: Overview
Overview This section discusses the concepts behind microwave cooking. It also discusses the basic information you need to know to operate your microwave oven. Please read this information before you use your oven. HOW YOUR MICROWAVE HOOD COMBINATION WORKS Microwave ovens are safe. Microwave energy is not hot. It causes food to make its own heat, and it is this heat that cooks the food. Microwaves are like TV waves, radio waves, or light waves. You cannot see them, but you can see what they do. A magnetron in the microwave oven produces microwaves. The microwaves move into the oven where they contact the food as it turns on the turntable. The glass turntable of your microwave oven lets microwaves pass through. Then they bounce off a metal floor, back through the glass turntable, and are absorbed by the food. Microwaves pass through most glass, paper, and plastics without heating them, so food absorbs the energy. Microwaves bounce off metal containers so food does not absorb the energy. -
Page 8: Testing Your Dinnerware Or Cookware
OVERVIEW TESTING YOUR DINNERWARE OR COOKWARE Most heat resistant, nonmetallic cookware is safe for use in your microwave oven. However, to test cookware before using, follow these steps: 1. Place empty cookware in the microwave oven. . M easure 1 cup (50ml) of water in a glass measuring cup and place it in the oven beside the cookware. 3. M icrowave on 100% power for 1 minute. If the cookware is warm, it should not be used for microwave cooking. NOTE: Some dishes (melamine, some ceramic dinnerware, etc.) absorb microwave energy, becoming too hot to handle and slowing cooking time. Cooking in metal containers, not designed for microwave use, could damage the oven, as could containers with hidden metal (twist-ties, foil lining, staples, metallic glaze or trim). -
