Explosion Hazard

Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

How your microwave oven works

Microwave ovens are safe. Microwave energy is not hot. It causes food to make its own heat, and it’s this heat that cooks the food.

Microwaves are like TV waves or light waves. You cannot see them, but you can see 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.

Your microwave oven has the Whirlpool patented ACCUWAVE* Distri- bution System, which releases microwaves from two locations (one above food and one at bottom of food). Because the microwaves enter the oven at two different times, a third wave of microwaves is created. This gives you uniform cooking.

The glass turntable of your microwave oven lets microwaves pass through. Then they bounce off a metal floor, back through the glass turntable, and are absorbed by the food.
