HOW THE MICROWAVE/CONVECTION OVEN WORKS

Microwave

Cooking

Stirrer/Convection

Fan

Using the energy of microwaves only, food is heated quickly without altering the color or shape. Microwaves generated by a magnetron are uniformly distributed by the fan so that the food in the oven is heated and cooked. Microwave power can be adjusted in 99 steps, enabling the various kinds of foods to cook at most desirable cooking power for the best results.

Convection Cooking

This is a way of cooking with the combination of hot air from the upper heater and thermal conduction from the lower heater that heats and cooks

food from the outside. This method allows food to be browned evenly without losing any of the juices. Air heated by the top heater is uniformly circulated in the oven by a fan to enable the heating and cooking of food. Since hot air remains in the oven as it circulates, cooking is very efficient. And more, the lower heater cooks food from bottom side to provide the even cooking results. The temperature inside the oven can be controlled according to the type of food being cooked. Clicking sound of heater

switching from lower to upper heating element and back again is a normal sound associated with this oven.

An "Oi! Canning" noise may be heard when using the convection method. This is a normal sound caused by the cold oven floor reacting to the heating of the element below the oven floor surface or to the hot surface cooling down.

Micro/Convec Cooking

With both microwave energy and hot air utilized, this method cooks food much more quickly than any conventional method. The solid state control

alternates cooking energy between microwave and hot air cycles to provide efficient cooking fully utilizing the advantages of both microwave and hot air cooking systems.

When foods with high moisture content are cooked on the micro/convec

method, beads of water may accumulate on the top and/or sides of the oven door, but will dissipate after use.
