ENGLISH

Microwaves will pass through certain materials, such
as glass and plastic, to heat the food. (See 'Suitable
Cookware' on page ID-19).
Water, sugar and fat in food absorb microwaves which
cause them to vibrate. This creates heat by friction,
in the same way your hands get warm when you rub
them together.
The outer areas of the food are heated by the micro-
wave energy, then the heat moves to the centre by
conduction, as it does in conventional cooking. It is
important to turn, rearrange or stir food to ensure
even heating.
Once cooking is complete, the oven automatically
stops producing microwaves.
Standing time is necessary after cooking, as it enables
the heat to disperse equally throughout the food.
Microwaves are energy waves, similar to those used
for TV and radio signals.
Electrical energy is converted into microwave energy,
which is directed into the oven cavity via a waveguide.
To prevent food and grease entering the wave guide it
is protected by the waveguide cover.
Microwaves cannot pass through metal, because of
this the oven cavity is made of metal and there is a
fine metal mesh on the door. During cooking the
microwaves bounce othe sides of the oven cavity at
random.

ENGLISH
OVEN AND ACCESSORIES
NOTES:
• The waveguide cover is fragile. Care should be taken when cleaning inside the oven to ensure that it is not
damaged.
• After cooking fatty foods without a cover, always clean the cavity and especially the grill heating element
thoroughly, these must be dry and free from grease. Built-up grease may overheat and begin to smoke or
catch fire.
• Always operate the oven with the turntable and turntable support fitted correctly. This promotes thorough,
even cooking. A badly fitted turntable may rattle, may not rotate properly and could cause damage to the
oven.
• All food and containers of food are always placed on the turntable for cooking.
• The turntable rotates clockwise or anti-clockwise. The rotary direction may change each time you start the
oven. This does not affect cooking performance.
WARNING: This symbol means that the surfaces are liable to get hot during use. The door, outer
cabinet, oven cavity, accessories and dishes will become very hot during operation. To prevent burns,
always use thick oven gloves.

For the reheating of foods, follow the advice and guidelines below to ensure food is thoroughly reheated before
serving.
Plated meals Remove any poultry or meat portions, reheat these separately,
see below.
Place smaller items of food to the centre of the plate, larger and
thicker foods to the edge. Cover with vented microwave cling lm
and reheat on 50%, stir/rearrange halfway through reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the food is thoroughly reheated before serving.
Sliced meat Cover with vented microwave cling lm and reheat on 50%.
Rearrange at least once to ensure even reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the meat is thoroughly reheated before serving.
Poultry portions Place thickest parts of the portions to the outside of the dish, cover
with vented microwave cling lm and reheat on 70%.
Turn over halfway through reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the poultry is thoroughly reheated before serving.
Casseroles Cover with vented microwave cling lm or a suitable lid and reheat
on 50%.
Stir frequently to ensure even reheating.
NOTE: Ensure the food is thoroughly reheated before serving.
To achieve the best results when reheating, select a suitable microwave power level appropriate to the type of
food. e.g. A bowl of vegetables can be reheated using 100%, while a lasagne which contains ingredients that
cannot be stirred, should be reheated using 50%.
NOTES:
• Remove food from foil or metal containers before reheating.
• Reheating times will be aected by the shape, depth, quantity and temperature of food together with the
size, shape and material of the container.
WARNING:
Never heat liquids in narrow-necked containers, as this could result in the contents erupting from
the container and may cause burns.
• Toavoidoverheatingandre, special care must be taken when reheating foods with a high sugar or fat content,
e.g. mince pies or Christmas pudding.
• Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as this may lead to overheating and re.
• Canned potatoes should not be heated in the microwave oven, follow the manufacturer's instructions on the
can.
WARNING:
The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken and the temperature
is to be checked before consumption to avoid burns.
REHEATING ADVICE
GB-14
ENGLISH

Rearrange Foods that are placed towards the outside of the dish will defrost quicker than foods
in the centre. It is therefore essential that the food is rearranged up to 4 times during
defrosting.
Move closely packed pieces from the outside to the centre and rearrange over-lapping
areas.
This will ensure that all parts of the food defrosts evenly.
Separate Foods may be stuck together when removed from the freezer. It is important to separate
foods as soon as it is possible during defrosting, e.g. bacon rashers, chicken llets.
Shield Some areas of food being defrosted may become warm. To prevent them becoming
warmer and starting to cook, these areas can be shielded with small pieces of foil, which
reect microwaves, e.g. legs and wings on a chicken.
Stand Standing time is necessary to ensure food is thoroughly defrosted. Defrosting is not
complete once the food is removed from the microwave oven. Food must stand, covered,
for a length of time to ensure the centre has completly defrosted.
Turn over It is essential that all foods are turned over at least 3 - 4 times during defrosting. This is
important to ensure thorough defrosting.
NOTES:
• Remove all packaging and wrapping before defrosting.
• To defrost food, use microwave power levels 30% or 10%.
Defrosting food using your microwave oven is the quickest method of all.
It is a simple proccess but the following instructions are essential to ensure the food is thoroughly defrosted.
