Your Microwave oven, is one of the safest of all
home appliances. When the door is opened, the
oven automatically stops producing microwaves.
Microwave energy is converted completely to
heat when it enters food, leaving no “left over”
energy to harm you when you eat your food.
A very safe appliance
How the Microwave Function Works
Microwaves are a form of energy similar to radio,
television waves, and ordinary daylight. Normally,
microwaves spread outwards as they travel through the
atmosphere and disappear without effect.
This oven, however, has a magnetron that is designed to
make use of the energy in microwaves. Electricity,
supplied to the magnetron tube, is used to create
microwave energy.
These microwaves enter the cooking area through
openings inside the oven. A tray is located inside the
oven. Microwaves cannot pass through metal walls of the
oven, but they can penetrate such materials as glass,
porcelain and paper, the materials out of which
microwave-safe cooking dishes are constructed.
Microwaves do not heat cookware, though cooking
vessels will eventually get hot from the heat generated by
the food.
