Oven use

How a microwave oven works

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the colour.

You can use your microwave oven to:

•Defrost

•Reheat

•Cook

Cooking principle.

1. The microwaves generated by the
magnetron reflected at cavity and are
distributed uniformly as the food rotates
on the turntable. The food is thus cooked
evenly.
2. The microwaves are absorbed by the	Oven
food up to a depth of about 1 inch
(2.5 cm). Cooking then continues as the
heat is dissipated within the food.	features
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)

IMPORTANT

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.
