About this microwave oven

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves similar to radio waves. While radio waves may vary in length from one metre to many kilometres, microwaves are very short (less than 12.5 centimetres). Microwaves do not make any heat themselves but only cause water molecules in food to vibrate. This vibration produces the heat that cooks the food. This is why your food will come out of the microwave piping hot, when your utensils inside the oven stay much cooler. The microwaves do not stay in the air or in the food when you open the microwave oven door.

The microwave oven will work using an ordinary household electrical socket. Inside the microwave oven is the magnetron, which turns the electrical energy into microwaves. Microwaves cannot go through metal, so the inside of the oven is lined with metal. The door is lined with a fine metal mesh which stops microwaves getting through. This means that when the microwave oven door is shut, there is no possibility that microwaves can be released. This is why the microwave oven has been made so that it will not work when the door is open.

Before you use your microwave oven

1Remove all the packaging. Do not remove the small piece of card from the right hand side of the cavity wall. This is called a wave-guide cover and allows the microwaves to pass through to cook the food.

2Check the oven after unpacking for any visual damage such as:

¾A misaligned door

¾Damage to the door

¾Dents or holes in the door window and screen

¾Dents in the inside

If you can see any damage do not use the oven
