How a Microwave Oven Works
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy
released enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing
either the form or the colour.
You can use your microwave oven to:
• Auto Power Defrost
• Auto Reheat/Cook
•Cook
Cooking Principle
☛ As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking
continues even when you have taken the food out of the oven.
Standing times specified in recipes and in this booklet must therefore
be respected to ensure:
• Even cooking of the food right to the centre
• The same temperature throughout the food
Checking that Your Oven is Operating Correctly
The following simple procedure enables you to check that your oven is
working correctly at all times.
Open the oven door by pulling the handle on the right side of the door.
Place a glass of water on the turntable. Then, close the door.
✉ The oven must be plugged into an appropriate wall socket. The
turntable must be in position in the oven. If a power level other than
the maximum is used, the water takes longer to boil.
1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron are
distributed uniformly as the food rotates on the
turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly.
2. The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a
depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then
continues as the heat is dissipated within the food.
3. Cooking times vary according to the recipient used
and the properties of the food:
• Quantity and density
• Water content
• Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)
1. Press the button.
2. Set the time to 4-5 minutes by turning the dial knob as
requried.
3. Press the button.
Result :
The oven heats the water for 4 to 5 minutes.
The water should then be boiling.
