Microwaves are like TV waves, radio waves, or light waves. You cannot see them, but you can see the results of what they do.

A magnetron in the microwave oven produces microwaves. The microwaves move into the oven where they contact food as it turns on the turntable.

The glass turntable of your microwave oven lets microwaves pass through. The microwaves then bounce off a metal floor,

back through the glass turntable, and are absorbed by the food.

Microwaves pass through most glass, paper, and plastics

without heating them, so food absorbs the energy. Microwaves bounce off not absorb the energy.

RADIO INTERFERENCE

Using your microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV, or similar equipment. When there is interference, you can reduce it or remove it by:

*Cleanlng the door and sealing surfaces of the oven. *Adjusting the receiving antenna of the radio or television. *Moving the receiver away from the microwave oven.

*Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that the microwave oven and receiver are on different branch circuits.

FOR THE BEST COOKING RESULTS

*Always cook food for the shortest cooking time recommended. Check to see how the food is cooking. If needed, touch Add 30 Sec while the oven is operating, or after the cooking cycle is over (see the "Add 30 Sec" section).

*Stir, turn over, or rearrange the food being cooked about halfway through the cooking time for all recipes. This will help ensure that the food is evenly cooked.

*If you do not have a cover for a dish, use wax paper, or microwave-approved paper towels or plastic wrap. Remember to turn back a corner of the plastic wrap to vent steam during cooking.
