Microwave Symbols
On the front of your oven there is a microwave oven symbol, as shown below.
This symbol has been introduced for your benefit
when cooking or reheating packaged food.
Packaged food is also, increasingly, using a microwave
symbol similar to the one below. When you see this
Symbol on food packaging, cooking instructions are
based on either the IEC Power Output Rating, or the
Reheating Categories A, B, C, D or E.
CooKInG InStrUCtIonS
The IEC Power Output rating is an internationally standardised rating, so all
microwave manufacturers now use the same method of measuring power output.
If food packaging gives cooking instructions based on IEC Power ratings, set
cooking times according to the IEC Power of your oven.
For example :
If the cooking instructions are based on a 650 W oven, then you will need to
reduce some cooking time for the MS23K3555** (800 W).
Ready meals are now very convenient and popular. These are meals which are
already prepared and cooked by the food manufacturer, and then frozen, chilled or
vacuum sealed for long life.
Increasingly, heating times for such ready meals are being based on the Heating
Categories A, B, C, D and E.
On this instance, simply match the heating category of your oven to the
instructions on the food package, and set your timer accordingly.
For example :
If the heating instructions are 3 minutes on HIGH for a D category oven, then you
will need to set your timer for less than 3 minutes on HIGH for the MS23K3555**
(E category).
IMPORTANT: Always remember that cooking instructions are intended only as a
guide. If you have followed the instructions and the food is still not piping hot
throughout, simply return it to the oven and cook it until it is.
