Avoid damaging the oven or other dangerous situations by following these instructions:
Do not switch on the oven without the turntable support, the turntable ring and the
respective plate being in place.
Never switch on th
e microwave when it is empty. If there is no food inside there may be an
electrical overcharge and the oven could be damaged. RISK OF DAMAGE!
For carrying out oven programming tests put a glass of water inside the oven. The water will
absorb the microwaves and the oven will not be damaged.
Do not cover or obstruct the ventilation openings.
Use only dishes suitable for microwaves. Before using dishes and containers in the
microwave, check that these are suitable (see the section on types of dishes).
Never re
move the mica cover on the ceiling of the oven interior! This cover stops fat and
pieces of food damaging the microwave generator.
Do not keep any inflammable object inside the oven as it may burn if the oven is switched on.
Do not use the oven as a pantry.
Eggs with their shells and whole boiled eggs must not be heated in microwave ovens because
they may explode.
Do not use the oven for frying as it is impossible to control the temperature of oil heated by
microwaves.
To avoid being burnt, always use oven
gloves for handling dishes and containers and
touching the oven.
Do not lean or sit on the open oven door. This may damage the oven, especially in the hinge
zone. The door can bear a maximum weight of 8 kg.
The turntable and the grills can bear a maximum l
oad of 8 kg. To avoid damaging the oven,
do not exceed this load.

THE ADVANTAGES OF MI
THE ADVANTAGES OF MITHE ADVANTAGES OF MI
THE ADVANTAGES OF MICROWAVES
CROWAVESCROWAVES
CROWAVES
In conventional ovens, heat radiated by electrical elements or gas burners slowly
penetrates the food from outside to inside. On account of this there is a major
amount of energy is wasted heating the air, the oven components and the food
containers.
In a microwave oven, heat is generated by the food itself and the heat travels from
inside to outside. No heat is lost to the air, the walls of the oven cavity or the dishes
and containers (if these are suitable for use in microwave oven), in other words, only
the food is heated.
Microwave ovens have the following advantages:
Shorter cooking times; in general these are up to 3/4 less than the time required
for conventional cooking.
•Ultra-fast food defrosting thus reduces the danger of bacterial development.
•Energy savings.
•Conservation of the nutritional value of foods due to the shorter cooking times.
•Easy to clean.
How a microwave oven works?
In a microwave oven there is a high tension valve called a magnetron which converts
electrical energy into microwave energy. These electromagnetic waves are
channelled to the interior of the oven through a wave guide and distributed by a
metallic spreader or through a turntable.
Inside the oven the microwaves propagate in all directions and are reflected by the
metal walls, uniformly penetrating the food.

Why food heats up
Why food heats upWhy food heats up
Why food heats up
Most foods contain water and w
ater molecules vibrate when subjected to microwaves.
The friction between molecules produces heat which raises the temperature of the food,
de-freezing it, cooking it or keeping it hot.
Since the heat arises inside the food:
– This can be cooked with little or no liquid or fats/oils;
– De-
freezing, heating or cooking in a microwave oven is quicker than in a
conventional oven;
–
The vitamins, minerals and nutritional substances in the food are conserved;
– The natural colour and aroma of the food are unchanged.
Micr
owaves pass through china, glass, cardboard or plastic but do not go through metal.
For this reason, metal containers or ones with metal parts must not be used in a
microwave oven.
