6
TECHNICAL PASSPORT ENGLISH
Microwave Oven RMW 963
paciers. After heating, carefully stir
or shake the product to provide even
temperature. Before feeding, check the
temperature of the baby food. BURN
HAZARD!
ÂTo avoid overheating and
burns, it is important to set a suitable
microwave power and duration for
cooking of a small quantity of food. For
example, if high power is set, a slice of
bread can be burnt in 3 minutes.
ÂFor frying, use grill and
constantly control the process. When
toasts are made in a combined mode,
re can outbreak within a very short
period.
ÂCheck that power cords of other
appliances do not contact with the hot
door or the oven. Cable insulation can
melt. Short-circuit hazard!
Be careful, when heating liquids!
If you take a container with a
liquid (water, coffee, tea, milk...) with
temperature close to the boiling point
out of the oven abruptly, the liquid can
boil and slop over onto your hands.
INJURY AND BURN HAZARD!
To prevent such situation, put a
spoon or a glass stick in a container

To avoid hazards and oven damages,
follow our recommendations:
ÂDo not turn on the oven without
the turntable drive, roller support and
tray properly installed in their place.
ÂNever turn on an empty
microwave oven.If there are no products
in the oven, this can lead to electrical
overload and severe damages. DAMAGE
HAZARD!
ÂTo check the operation of the
microwave oven, place a glass of water
inside. Water will absorb the microwave
energy and the oven will not be
damaged.
ÂDo not close or obstruct vents.
ÂUse only cookware and
dinnerware suitable for microwaves.
Before using cookware, dinnerware or
containers, check that they are suitable
for a microwave oven (refer to Suitable
Cookware or Dinnerware section).

MICROWAVE BENEFITS
In traditional ovens, heat generated
outside by an electric heating element
or a gas burner, gradually penetrates
into products. Thus, more energy is
consumed to heat the air, oven parts
and cookware or dinnerware.
In a microwave oven, heat is
generated in the products and carried
from the inside towards the outer
surface. Heat is not consumed to heat
the air, inner walls of the oven and
cookware and dinnerware (if suitable
for use in a microwave oven), i.e. only
food is heated.
Microwave ovens provide the
following benets:
1. Cooking time is reduced: in
average you can save up to 75% of time,
as compared with traditional ovens.

8
TECHNICAL PASSPORT ENGLISH
Microwave Oven RMW 963
2. Extremely quick defrosting of
products allows mitigation of bacterial
growth hazard.
3. Energy saving.
4. Nutritional value saving by
reduction of the cooking time.
5. Easy cleaning.
Operation of the Microwave
Oven
The microwave oven is equipped
with a high-voltage instrument, a
magnetron, which converts electric
energy into microwaves. Microwaves
generated by the magnetron are
supplied into the oven chamber by the
waveguide and evenly distributed by a
metal impeller (dissector) or using the
turntable.
Inside the oven chamber,microwaves
reect from metal walls, spread in all
directions and evenly penetrate into
products.
Heating of Products
Most products contain water, and
water molecules start vibrating under
the inuence of microwaves.
Friction of molecules against each
other results in heat, which increases
the temperature of products and allows
cooking, defrosting and keeping them
hot.
As heating takes place inside the
products:
Âthey can be cooked without
water and fats or wit small quantities
of the same;
Âdefrosting, heating and cooking
in a microwave oven is quicker than in a
traditional one;
Âvitamins, minerals and nutrients
remain in food;
Âproducts retain their natural
color, taste and avor.
Microwaves penetrate through
china, glass, cardboard and plastic,
but not metal. Therefore, avoid using
metal cookware or dinnerware, or those
containing metal parts in a microwave
oven.
Microwaves are reected by metal,..
... but penetrate through glassware
and chinaware...
... and are absorbed by products.

Basic Defrost Recommendations
1. Use only cookware or dinnerware
suitable for microwave ovens
(china, glass, suitable plastic) for
defrost.
2. Weight Defrost mode and the
respective tables relate to
defrosting of whole products.
3. Defrost time depends on the
quantity and size of products.
Always control the process.
Distribute the product evenly in
the container.
4. If possible, distribute the product
evenly in the oven. Place the
thick part of sh and chicken legs
closer to the container edges. The
most tender parts of a product
can be protected with pieces of
aluminium foil. Important: check
that the foil does not contact
with inner surfaces of the oven,
otherwise electric arc can be
generated.
5. In defrost mode, turn over large
pieces several times.
6. Distribute a product as evenly as
possible: thin and narrow pieces
thaw quicker than thick and wide
ones.
7. Fat products, such as butter,
cream cheese and cream, should
preferable not be fully defrosted.
If you let them stand at room
temperature, they will be ready
for eating in a few minutes. If you
nd pieces of ice in deeply frozen
cream after thawing, stir the cream
before serving.
8. Place poultry on an overturned
plate so that the juice ows down
more easily.
9. Wrap bread in a towel so that it is
not overdried.
10. Turn over products, when the
oven beeps and the display shows
.
11. Unpack frozen products and make
sure that no metal items (e.g.
clips) are left. Put containers with
deep-frozen products suitable
for cooking in a microwave oven
into the oven and remove the
cover. In any other cases transfer
products in containers suitable for
microwave ovens.
12. Pour out liquid formed during
thawing of products, especially
chicken. Always avoid contact of
this liquid with other products.
13. Keep in mind that upon defrost
a product needs some free hold
time for full thawing.
COOKING WITH
MICROWAVES
Warning! Read Safety
Precautions section thouroughly
before cooking.
Follow the below recommendations
for cooking with microwaves:
ÂFor cooking or heating, stab
the skin or jacket of products (such as
apples, tomatoes, potatoes, sausages...)
to prevent bursting. Cut large pieces
into smaller ones.

ÂCheck that the container is
suitable for microwave ovens before
use (refer to Suitable Cookware or
Dinnerware section).
ÂWhen products with small
content of moisture (e.g. bread
defrosting, popcorn maize) are
cooked, evaporation is very quick. The
microwave oven starts operating as an
empty one. In this case products can
burn, and the oven with the container
can be damaged. Thus, set an exact
duration of cooking and always control
the process.
ÂHeating of large quantities of oil
(deep fat frying) in a microwave oven is
not allowed.
ÂTake ready meals out of the
package, as it is not always suitable for
use in a microwave oven. Then follow
the producer’s instructions.
ÂIf you use multiple containers
(e.g. cups) at a time, place the containers
on the turntable evenly.
ÂDo not close plastic packages
with metal clips. Use plastic clips
instead. Stab the package in several
spots so that steam can escape.
ÂMake sure that the temperature
of the products being cooked or heated
is minimum 70°С.
ÂIn the process of cooking steam
can condense at the oven door and start
dripping. It is a normal condition, which
is more typical for spaces with a lower
temperature and does not affect safe
operation of the oven. After cooking,
wipe the condensate off the door.
ÂWhen liquids are heated, use
wide-mouth containers so that steam
can escape freely.
Cook dishes in accordance with the
instructions and taking into account the
time and power, as recommended in the
table.
Dish cooking parameters are for
reference only and depend on the condition
of the products, their temperature,
moisture content and type. Reduce or
increase the duration of cooking or power
level considering original properties of the
products.
Cooking with Microwaves...
1. The more products you want to
cook, the more time you will need.
Please keep in mind that:
Âtwice more products > twice
more time,
Âtwice less products > twice less
time.
2. The lower the temperature of a
product is, the more time is needed for
cooking.
3. Products with high moisture
content are heated quicker.
4. To obtain successful results,
distribute products evenly on the
turntable. Placing thick pieces closer to
the edge, and thin pieces closer to the
center, you can cook multiple product
types at a time.
