Microwave Warning

Microwave heating of beverages may result in delayed eruptive boiling; always use caution when handling the container. Always allow beverages to stand at least 20 seconds before handling. If necessary, stir during heating. Always stir after heating.

In the event of scalding, follow these First Aid instructions:

• Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at least 10 minutes.
• Cover with a clean, dry dressing.
• Do not apply any creams, oils, or lotions.

To avoid damaging the tray or rack, do not put the tray or rack in water shortly after cooking.

Do not use the oven for deep fat frying because the oil temperature cannot be controlled. This could result in a sudden boil over of hot oils.

Microwave Oven Precautions

• Only use microwave-safe utensils. Do not use metallic containers, gold or silver trimmed dinnerware, skewers, etc.
• Remove wire twist ties. Electric arcing may occur.
• Do not use the oven to dry papers or clothes.
• Use shorter times for small amounts of food to prevent overheating or burning.

Oven Use

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:

• Defrost
• Reheat
• Cook

Cooking principle.

Diagram illustrating the microwave cooking principle: 1. Microwaves generated by the magnetron are reflected and distributed uniformly as the food rotates on the turntable, ensuring even cooking. 2. Microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm), with cooking continuing as heat dissipates. 3. Cooking times vary based on food properties like quantity, density, water content, and initial temperature.

CAUTION 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. If you are in doubt, refer to the section entitled "Troubleshooting" on page 23 to 10.

NOTE 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 (100 % - 1000 W) is used, the water takes longer to boil.
