COOKING INSTRUCTIONS ON FOOD PACKAGING

Microwave Symbols
On the front of your oven there is a microwave oven symbol, as shown below.
This symbol has been introduced for your benefit when cooking or reheating packaged
food.
Packaged food is also, increasingly, using a microwave symbol similar to the one below.
Symbol on food packaging, the cooking instructions are based on either the IEC Power
Output Rating, or the Reheating Categories A, B, C, D or E.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

The IEC Power Output rating is an internationally standardised rating, so all microwave
manufacturers now use the same method of measuring power output.
If food packaging gives cooking instructions based on IEC Power ratings, set cooking times
according to the IEC Power of your oven.
For example :
If the cooking instructions are based on a 650 W oven, then you will need to reduce some
cooking time for the CM1089 (1100 W) Ready meals are now very convenient and popular.
These are meals which are already prepared and cooked by the food manufacturer, and then
frozen, chilled or vacuum sealed for long life.
Increasingly, heating times for such ready meals are being based on the Heating Categories A,
B, C, D and E.
On this instance, simply match the heating category of your oven to the instructions on the
food package, and set your timer accordingly.
For example : If the heating instructions are 3 minutes on HIGH for a D category oven, then you
will need to set your timer for less than 3 minutes on HIGH for the CM1089 (E category).
Always remember that cooking instructions are intended only as a guide. If you have
followed the instructions and the food is still not piping hot throughout, simply return
it to the oven and cook it until it is.
