Microwaves

—

Microwaves

belong

to

the

family

of

electromagnetic

waves,

what

are

they?

These

waves

are

able

to

transmit

energy

like

radio

waves.

Microwaves

are

close

relatives

of

the

short

waves

known

in

radio

and

TV,

being

used,

not

to

transmit

music

and

TV

pictures,

but

to

cook

food.

During

the

cooking

cycle,

the

microwaves

penetrate

inside

the

food.

Without

any

intermediate

carrier,

they

generate

heat

below

the

surface

by

causing

the

food

molecules

to

vibrate.

The

heat

of

friction

thus

generated

propagates

through

the

food,

enabling

the

latter

to

be

defrosted,

heated,

and

cooked.

This

is

the

basic

difference

between

a

microwave

appliance

and

conventional

cooker.

Cookers

externally

apply

heat

to

the

food

via

heat

flux

(oven),

heat

conduction

(hob),

or

heat

radiation

(grill).

How

quickly

a

microwave

oven

cooks

food

depends

very

strong¬

ly

on

the

quantity,

quality,

and

shape

of

the

food.

Since,

during

microwave

cooking,

heat

is

not

uniformly

generated

at

all

locations,

it

is

important

that

the

food

to

be

heated

is

stirred

or

turned

when

large

quantities

are

being

cooked.

Since

this

cooking

method

involves

generation

of

heat

inside

the

food

itself

and

not

via

an

intermediate

carrier

(fat

or

water),

nutrient-conserving

cooking

is

possible.

Vitamins

and

minerals

are

retained

in

the

food

and

not

swept

away

as

during

conventional

cooking.

Safety

instructions

The

golden

rules

for

trouble-free

and

save

working

with

a

microwave

oven

1.

Switch

the

appliance

on

only

when

food

has

been

placed

in

the

cooking

space,

and

only

operate

it

when

the

turntable

is

inserted.

2.

Always

keep

the

appliance

clean,

especially

in

the

vicinity

of

the

door

seals

and

door

seal

surfaces.

3

.

Never

damage:

■

the

door

■

the

door

hinges

■

the

door

seals

and

their

surfaces

■

the

door

frame

(e.g.

never

jam

anything

between

door

and

frame)

Clean

the

door

seals

and

their

surfaces

(also

the

door

frame)

with

a

mild

detergent

and

hot

water.

Note:

Should

the

door

seals

and

door

seal

surfaces

be

damaged,

the

appliance

should

not

be

operated

until

it

has

been

re¬

paired

by

the

AEG

Service

Centre

or

by

an

AEG-trained

elec¬

trician!

4

.

Only

use

suitable

oven

ware.

5.

When

heating

liquids,

please

always

additionally

place

a

tea¬

spoon

in

the

container

to

avoid

delayed

boiling.

But

it

must

not

touch

the

walls.

During

delayed

boiling,

the

boiling

temperature

is

attained

without

typical

steam

bubbles

rising.

Even

when

the

contain¬

er

is

only

slightly

shaken,

the

liquid

may

then

suddenly

vigor¬

ously

boil

over

or

spurt.

Risk

of

scalding.

6.

Food

with

a

“skin"

or

“peel",

such

as

potatoes,

tomatoes,

sau¬

sages,

and

the

like

should

be

pierced

with

a

fork

so

that

any

steam

present

can

escape

and

the

food

will

not

burst.

7.

Make

sure

that

a

minimum

temperature

of

70

°C

is

attained

for

the

cooking/heating

of

food.

This

will

be

achieved

if

you

follow

the

instructions

given

in

the

cooking

tables

(time/

power).

Never

use

a

mercury

or

liquid

thermometer

for

meas¬

uring

the

food

temperatures.

8.

Babyfood

in

jars

or

bottles

should

basically

be

heated

with¬

out

a

lid

or

top

and

well

stirred

or

shaken

after

heating

to

en¬

sure

uniform

distribution

of

the

heat.

Before

giving

your

child

the

babyfood,

please

check

the

temperature.

9.

Please

note

that,

at

high

power

and

time

settings,

the

ovenware

heats

up.

Therefore

use

protective

mittens

suit¬

able

for

handling

pots

and

pans.

leave

the

appliance

to

operate

unattended

if

food

is

to

be

warmed

or

cooked

in

disposable

contain¬

ers

made

of

plastic,

paper,

or

other

inflammable

mate¬

rials.

Should

smoke

be

observed

the

door

must

be

kept

closed

and

the

oven

switched

off

or

else

discon¬

nected

from

the

power

supply.

11.

Never

use

your

microwave

oven:

■

to

boil

eggs

and

escargots

in

their

shells,

since

they

will

otherwise

burst!

■

to

heat

large

quantities

of

cooking

oil

(fondue,

deep-frying)

and

drinks

containing

a

high

percent¬

age

of

alcohol

(danger

of

spontaneous

combus¬

tion!)

■

to

heat

unopened

cans,

bottles,

etc.

■

to

dry

animals,

textiles,

and

paper

■

for

crockery

(porcelain,

ceramics,

earthenware,

etc.)

having

voids

that

fill

with

water

and

which

may

cause

vapour

pressures

to

build

up

during

micro-

wave

cooking.

Please

follow

the

respective

manu¬

facturer’s

instructions.

12.

Use

your

appliance

only

as

instructed

and

as

indicated

in

the

“Cooking

tables".

Never

overcook

your

food

by

exces¬

sive

times

and

excessive

power

settings.

Specific

areas

of

the

food

will

otherwise

dry

out

and

nite.

13.

Should

the

power

cable

fitted

to

the

appliance

be

damaged,

it

must

be

replaced

with

an

identical

one.

This

work

may

only

be

carried

out

by

the

manufacturer's

staff

or

by

qualified

electricians

who

have

been

trained

by

the

manaufacturer.

AEG

electrical

appliances

comply

with

all

the

relevant

safety

regulations.

Never,

ever

use

the

microwave

oven

if

it

is

no

longer

functioning

properly.

In

order

to

maintain

the

safety

of

your

appliance,

you

may

only

have

repairs,

particularly

to

the

live

parts

of

the

appli¬

ance,

carried

out

by

a

qualified

electrician

trained

by

the

manufacturer.

In

the

case

of

any

defect

or

breakdown

you

must

therefore

contact

your

electrical

dealer

or

our

Ser¬

vice

Centre

direct.

If

repairs

are

carried

out

improperly,

the

result

can

be

seri¬

ous

danger

for

the

user.

The

interior

lighting

in

the

cooking

space

can

only

be

re¬

Since,

during

microwave

cooking

with

short

roasting

times

or

with

very

lean

meat,

no

heavy

browning

of

the

food

is

achieved,

spe¬

cial

browning

skillets

and

grill

plates

are

obtainable

from

your

electrical

retailer.

Browning

skillets

have

a

bottom

coating

which

becomes

very

hot

when

the

skillets

are

preheated

empty.

The

preheating

time

for

this

skillet

is

variously

long

and

depends

on

the

required

degree

of

browning

of

the

food

concerned.

Caution:

When

working

with
