Never turn on the microwave oven with an empty oven cavity. Empty oven operation may cause magnetron overheating (microwave radiation generating device). Cooking/Heating-practical information.

It is worth knowing that:

• Red meat and hard vegetables should be placed in the microwave oven on the side of the turntable; white meat, poultry, fish and soft vegetables, should be placed in the middle of the turntable (food placed on the side will cook faster);
• the food will not dry out if covered;
• cooking in a microwave oven requires minimum amount of fat, which if particularly appreciated by those who prefer healthy food;
• do not use metal cookware in a microwave oven (even those with a subtle metal decoration), as they produce sparks and do not transmit microwaves;
• the higher water content in the prepared dish, the shorter cooking time
• even after cooking has finished, the food is still simmering, thus must be left under cover for another 1-2 minutes
