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.

The Panasonic NNSN973S is a state-of-the-art microwave oven designed to enhance culinary experiences with its advanced features and technologies. This microwave stands out not just for its sleek design but also for its array of capabilities that cater to both novice and experienced cooks alike.

One of the most remarkable features of the NNSN973S is its inverter technology.

This feature is especially beneficial for individuals with busy lifestyles, as it allows for quick preparation without sacrificing quality.

Additionally, this model boasts a spacious interior, making it suitable for larger meals and dishware. With a capacity that accommodates sizable containers, the NNSN973S is ideal for families or those who frequently entertain guests. The turntable ensures that food is evenly reheated, while the easy-clean interior simplifies maintenance, allowing for hassle-free cleaning after culinary adventures.

Safety is another paramount consideration in the design of the NNSN973S. The child safety lock feature provides peace of mind for families, ensuring that children cannot accidentally operate the microwave. Furthermore, the sleek stainless steel finish not only adds to the aesthetic appeal but also offers durability and resistance to fingerprints, keeping the appliance looking pristine.

Moreover, the user-friendly control panel makes navigating the various features straightforward. The digital display is clear and easy to read, allowing for quick adjustments to cooking times and power levels.

In summary, the Panasonic NNSN973S is more than just a microwave; it is a versatile kitchen companion that integrates innovative technology, convenience, and safety features. With its inverter technology, generous interior space, and user-centric design, this microwave is perfect for anyone looking to elevate their cooking experience and enjoy delicious meals quickly and easily.
