Cooking Principle

Important

1.The microwaves generated by the magnetron are distributed uniformly by using stirrer distribution system. The food is thus cooked evenly.

2.The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then continues as the heat is dissipated within the food.

3.Cooking times vary according to the container used and the properties of the food:

• Quantity and density

• Water content

• Initial temperature (Refrigerated or not)

As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even when you have taken the food out of the oven.

Standing times speciﬁed in recipes and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:

•Even cooking of the food right to the centre

•The same temperature throughout the food
