WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
■ Not all materials are fit for use in a
microwave oven. The table below
indicates which materials can be
used.
■ Your microwave oven is not
suitable for:
- Preserving/bottling food.
- Boiling eggs, these will explode as
a result of the increased pressure
inside.
- Heating frying oil.
■ Never heat food for longer than
necessary, allow for the fact that
food will continue cooking for a
while, after being removed from
the microwave oven.
■ Use as little water as possible while
cooking and use salt sparingly to
preserve the natural flavours.
■ Stir or turn the food every now and
then.
■ Always prick the skins of meat,
poultry or fish, to help prevent
them from spatting.
■ Covering the dishes will prevent
spatting, shorten cooking, and
help to preserve the level of
moisture.
■ Do not switch on an empty micro-
wave oven, this may damage the
oven.
■ The door can be opened during
operation of the microwave oven,
the oven will automatically switch
off.
■ There could be some disturbance
on your TV, this happens sometimes
with household appliances such as
a mixer, vacuum cleaner, oven
etc.
■ The oven light is only burning when
the oven is working. Sometimes the
light can become a little fainter
and you can hear clicking noises.
This happens when the microwave
oven is set at a lower power level.
■ During cooking condensation will
form, especially on the door.
Depending on the quantity and
moisture level of the food being
prepared there may even be a
little water under the door. This is
normal!
