￿Microwave

In a microwave oven there is a high- frequency tube called a magnetron. This converts electrical energy into microwaves. These microwaves are distributed evenly throughout the oven interior and rebound off the metal sides of the oven interior to reach the food from all sides.

In order for microwaves to reach the food, they must be able to penetrate the cooking container being used (see "Suitable containers for microwave ovens"). Microwaves pass through a suitable container and find their way directly into the food.

All food contains moisture molecules which when subjected to microwave energy start to oscillate vigorously. The friction caused caused by this vibration creates heat which first starts developing around the outside of the food and then slowly penetrates towards the centre. The moisture, fat and sugar content of food will affect the speed at which it is cooked.

As heat is produced directly in the food,

food can generally be cooked without adding much liquid or cooking oil.

cooking, reheating and defrosting is much quicker than when using a function which does not use microwave energy.

nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, are generally retained.

the colour, texture and taste of food are not impaired.

Power level

The following power levels can be selected:

80 W, 150 W, 300 W, 450 W, 600 W, 850 W, 1000 W

Microwaves stop being produced as soon as the cooking process is interrupted or the appliance door is opened.
