THE MICROWAVE
A microwave is mainly used for quickly heating, preparing and defrosting food
like vegetables, meat, fish and potatoes. In addition, it is suitable for preparing
ready-to-eat meals or a glass or bottle of (baby)milk. Using the microwave
function will accelerate the defrosting, preparing and heating process.
How does a microwave work?
• The microwave works through electromagnetic microwaves, which
are sent by a high voltage system. These microwaves have a frequency
of 2450MHz and are not ionizing. This means they do not damage
the molecules. The microwaves turn the water within the food into
heat. Besides water, also fat molecules within the food are effective to
transform radiation energy into heat.
• The microwaves are going directly through tableware, which allows the
food to heat up quickly. Vitamins and natural flavours will be preserved.
• Because the microwaves remain within the device, the heating is in
some parts more intense than in others. For this reason, the microwave
is generally equipped with a glass turntable. Due to the rotating
motion, the turntable enables the energy to be divided more equally.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, injury
to persons or exposure to excessive microwave
oven energy when using your appliance, follow
basic precautions, including the following:
• Liquids and other foods must not be heated in
sealed containers since they are liable to explode.
• It is hazardous for anyone other than a
competent person to carry out any service or
repair operation that involves the removal of a
cover which gives protection against exposure
to microwave energy.
• Only allow children to use the oven without
supervision when adequate instructions have
been given so that the child is able to use the
oven in a safe way and understand the hazards of
improper use.
• Only use utensils suitable for use in microwave
ovens.
• The oven should be cleaned regularly and any
remaining food should be removed.
• Read and follow the specific: "PRECAUTIONS
TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICROWAVE ENERGY".
• When heating food in plastic or paper
containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the
possibility of ignition.
• If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the
appliance and keep the door closed in order to
stifle any flames.
• Do not overcook food.
• Do not use the oven cavity for storage
purposes. Do not store items, such as bread,
cookies, etc. inside the oven.
• Remove wire twist-ties and metal handles from
paper or plastic containers/bags before placing
them in the oven.
• Install or locate this oven only in accordance
with the installation instructions provided.
• Eggs in the shell and whole hard-boiled eggs
should not be heated in microwave ovens
since they may explode, even after microwave
heating has ended.
• Use this appliance only for its intended uses
