CONTAINER TEST

TO TEST A CONTAINER FOR SAFE MICROWAVE OVEN USE: Fill a microwave safe cup with cool water and place it in the microwave oven alongside the empty container to be tested; heat one (1) minute at P10 (HIGH). If the container is microwave oven safe (transparent to microwave energy), the empty container should remain comfortably cool and the water should be hot. If the container is hot, it has absorbed some microwave energy and should NOT be used. This test cannot be used for plastic containers.

NN-SN968 specifications

The Panasonic NN-SN968 is a state-of-the-art microwave oven designed to meet the needs of modern kitchens. With its sleek design and advanced technology, this appliance combines convenience and efficiency, making it a popular choice among consumers looking to streamline their cooking processes.

One of the standout features of the NN-SN968 is its inverter technology, which provides a consistent and even cooking experience. Unlike traditional microwaves that use a turn on and off mechanism to control cooking power, the inverter system delivers a steady stream of power, ensuring that food is cooked evenly throughout. This is particularly useful for delicate tasks like defrosting or reheating, where even temperature is crucial to avoid overcooking some parts while leaving others cold.

The NN-SN968 boasts a generous capacity of 2.2 cubic feet, which allows users to accommodate larger dishes and cooking containers easily. Its spacious interior is complemented by a 16.5-inch turntable that evenly distributes microwaves, further enhancing cooking efficiency. This makes it an excellent choice for families or anyone who frequently prepares meals for multiple people.

Control of the NN-SN968 is made simple and intuitive through its user-friendly interface. The microwave features a large, easy-to-read display, and a range of preset cooking options that take the guesswork out of meal preparation. From popcorn to baked potatoes, the preset functions allow for quick selections based on food type, ensuring optimal results every time.

Another significant advantage of the NN-SN968 is its sleek stainless-steel finish, which not only adds a touch of elegance to any kitchen but also makes cleaning easy. The smooth surface resists fingerprints and stains, ensuring that the appliance maintains its aesthetic appeal even with regular use.

Safety is also a priority with the Panasonic NN-SN968. It includes a child safety lock, preventing accidental operation by little hands, and an automatic shut-off feature that kicks in after a certain period of inactivity. These features not only promote safe usage but also offer peace of mind to busy households.

In conclusion, the Panasonic NN-SN968 microwave oven combines advanced inverter technology with user-friendly features and a robust design to deliver an outstanding cooking experience. Its spacious capacity, precise cooking options, and safety features make it an excellent addition to any kitchen, appealing to both novice cooks and culinary enthusiasts alike. Whether for quick meals or more intricate preparations, the NN-SN968 stands out as a dependable kitchen companion.
