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 to:
Defrost
Cook
Cooking Principle
1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron are
distributed uniformly by using stirrer distribution system.
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 container used
and the properties of the food:
Quantity and density
Water content
Initial temperature (Refrigerated or not)
Important
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
