How your microwave oven works (cont.)
Microwaves pass through most glass, paper, and
plastics without heating
them so food absorbs
the energy. Microwaves
bounce off metal con-
tainers so food does
not absorb the energy.
Microwaves may not reach the center of a roast.
The heat spreads to
the center from the
outer, cooked areas
just as in regular oven
cooking. This isone
I of the reasons for
letting some foods
(for example, roasts
or baked potatoes)
stand for a while after
cooking, or for stirring
some foods during the cooking time.
The microwaves disturb water molecules in the
food. As the molecules bounce around bumping
into each other, heat ismade, like rubbing
your hands together. This isthe heat that does
the cooking.
NOTE:Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable
cookware is not suitable and it is difficult to
maintain appropriate deep frying temperatures.
For the best cooking results
Always cook food for the shortest cooking time
recommended. Check to see how the food is
cooking. If needed, touch ADD ONE MINUTE while
the oven isoperating or after the cooking cycle is
over (see the "Using ADD ONE MINUTE" section).
=To help make sure the food isevenly cooked, stir,
turn over,"or rearrange the food about halfway
through the cooking time.
=If you do not have a cover for a dish, use wax
paper, or microwave-approved paper towels or
plastic wrap. Remember to turn back a comer of
the plastic wrap _Ato _.,_inch to vent steam during
heating or cooking.
Radio interference
Using your microwave oven may cause interference
to your radio, TV, or similar equipment. When there
is interference, you can reduce itor remove it by:
Cleaning the door and sealing surfaces of
the oven.
* Adjusting the receiving antenna ofthe radio
or television.
Moving the radio or TV away from the microwave
oven.
Plugging the microwave oven into a different
outlet so that the microwave oven and radio orTV
are on different branch circuits.
Testing your microwave oven
To test the oven put about I cup of cold water in a
glass container in the oven. Close the
door and make sure it latches. Follow
the directions in "Cooking at high
cook power" in the "Using Your
Microwave Oven" section to set the
oven to cook for 2 minutes. When the time is up,
the water should be heated.
