Technical Notes
RADIO INTERFERENCE
Operating the microwave can lead to interference
with your radio, television or similar equipment.
In the event of such interference the following
measures can help reduce or eliminate such
interference:
- Clean the door and sealing surface of the oven.
- Redirect the receiving antenna of the radio or
television.
- Place microwave at another place than where
the receiver is.
- Remove the microwave from the receiver.
Plug the microwave into another outlet so that the
microwave and receiver are supplied by a different
leg of the power circuit.
COOKING WITH YOUR MICROWAVE
• Arrange your food with consideration.
• The thickest parts should be close to the edge.
• Observe the cooking time. Select the shortest
cooking time and extend it if need be. Food cooked
excessively long can start smoking and ignite.
• Cover the food while cooking with a lid. The lid will
prevent the food from spattering and contributes
to the even cooking of the food.
• Turn the food during microwave preparation once so
that e.g. chicken or Hamburger dishes are more
quickly cooked.
• Large foods such as roast meat must be turned at
least five times.
• Rearrange food items like meat balls completely
after half of the cooking time has passed by turning
them and rotating those which previously were at
the centre of the dish, to the edge.
GUIDELINE ON COOKING DISHES
The ideal material for a microwave oven is
microwave permeable, i.e. it allows energy to pass
through the container in order to heat the food.
Only use a temperature sensor recommended for
this oven. Microwaves can not permeate metal.
For this reason, do not use metal containers or
metal dishes. Do not use any products made of
recycled paper when heating in the microwave as
they may contain minute metal fragments which
may cause sparks and/or fires. It is recommended
to use round/oval dishes instead of square/oblong
dishes since food caught in the corners may easily
boil away.
The bottom table is a general guideline for choosing
the correct dishes.
