Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves similar to radio waves.
While radio waves may vary in length from one metre to many kilometers,
microwaves are very short (less than 12.5 centimetres). Microwaves do not make
any heat themselves but only cause water molecules in food to vibrate. This
vibration produces heat that cooks the food. This is why your food will come out of
the microwave piping hot, when your utensils inside the oven stay much cooler.
The microwaves do not stay in the air or in the food when you open the
microwave oven door.
The microwave oven will work using an ordinary household electrical socket.
Inside the microwave oven is the magnetron, which turns the electrical energy
into microwaves. Microwaves cannot go through metal, so the inside of the oven
is lined with metal. The door is lined with a fine metal mesh which stops
microwaves getting through. This means that when the microwave oven door is
shut, there is no possibility that microwaves can be released. This is why the
microwave oven has been made so that it will not work when the door is open.
Before you use your microwave oven
1. Remove all the packaging. Do not remove the small piece of card from the
right hand side of the cavity wall. This is called a wave-guide cover and allows the
microwaves to pass through to cook the food.
2. Check the oven after unpacking for any visual damage such as
A misaligned door
Damage to the door
Dents or holes in the door window and screen
Dents in the inside
If you can see any damage do not use the oven.
This microwave oven weighs approximately 13.6kg so you must put it on a
horizontal surface that is strong enough to support this weight.
The oven must be placed away from high temperatures and steam.
Do not put anything on the top of the microwave oven.
Only use the accessories supplied by the manufacturer.
