INTRODUCTION TO MICROWAVE COOKING
How a microwave works
Microwaves are a form of energy similar to radio and television waves and
regular daylight. Everything radiates microwaves – kitchen sink, coffee pot,
even people. But microwaves spread through the atmosphere and disappear
without effect. MW is designed to utilize the microwave energy. Electricity is
transformed into MW energy in magnetron and microwaves proceed through the
openings in the walls of the oven into the food preparation space. Microwaves
can not penetrate the microwave walls but can penetrate materials such as
glass, porcelain and paper, thus materials of which the ware for microwave
food preparation is made. Microwaves do not heat the dishes but the dishes may
be heated by the heat of the heated food. Microwaves are drawn by moisture in
the food where they cause vibration of the molecules of water 2450 times per
second. The molecules rub against each other and create friction which causes
the heating of the food.
Very safe appliance
MW oven is one of the safest home appliances. If the door is opened, the MW
automatically stops its operation.
Factors affecting the cooking time
The cooking time is affected by several factors. The temperature of food and
ingredients used for cooking causes big differences in the cooking length.
E.g. food preparation with ice-cold food will last substantially longer than
preparation of the same food with ingredients whose temperature is room
temperature. The cooking time is also affected by the set power.
HOW FOOD QUALITIES AFFECT MICROWAVE COOKING
Food density
Light, porous foods such as pastry and bread are prepared faster than heavy,
dense foods such as roast. When preparing porous foods in MW oven, make sure
the outer parts do not dry and crispen. Cover the outer parts with foil (for
MW ovens) or cook at low power.
Food height
Top part of tall foods, namely when baking will bake faster than lower part.
It is therefore suitable to turn the food while cooking, sometimes several
times.
Initial temperature
The initial temperature of the food directly affects the time for which the
food needs to be cooked or heated. It is the same as with conventional cooking
– frozen foods cook longer than foods refrigerated and foods stored at room
temperature.
Moisture in food
Because the microwaves are drawn by moisture, relatively dry foods such as
roast or some kinds of vegetable should be sprinkled with water or covered
Food size
The smaller and more unified the pieces of ingredients in the MW are, the
better. It is also suitable to cook cut-up food in bigger kitchen ware in
order that the microwaves may get to the pieces from all sides and ensure even
cooking.
Quantity of food
The amount of microwaves remains the same regardless of the quantity of food
prepared. The more food you put in the oven the longer will the preparation
take. Small quantity of food requires shorter time for cooking or heating.
When using regular times for cooking or heating, the food may overheat or burn
Bones and fats
Bones conduct heat and big amounts of fat draw MW energy. When preparing slice
of meat with bones and fat, be careful not to cook the meat unevenly and roast
it too thoroughly. Foods with big amounts of fat and sugar require careful
choice of cooking time because they may easily become hot and burn or even
cause fire in the MW by self ignition.
Shape of ingredients
Microwaves penetrate the food only approx. 2.5 cm. The inner parts of the food
will cook by the heat created on the surface penetrating inward. In other
words, only the inner parts of food will actually cook by the microwave
energy. The rest will cook by heat distribution in the food. It is therefore
obvious that the worst shape of food for food preparation by MW oven is thick
block. Before the centre heats up, the edges will burn. Try to make the edges
of food round. These will cook best in the MW.
Defrosting frozen foods
Frozen foods may be put into the MW oven for defrosting (do not forget to
remove all metal clips and packages). Cover the parts of food which defrost
faster than others if needed. The process of defrosting will thus slow down or
stop. Some foods do not need to be defrosted completely before further
preparation. E.g. preparation of fish is so quick that it is sometimes better
to start preparing them when slightly frozen.
Cooking of frozen foods
This kind of food requires special care if it is prepared in a MW oven. It is
because most of the information on the packaging refers to a specific oven. It
is therefore necessary to know the power of your oven. If your oven has lower
power than stated in the information on the packaging, you should alter the
cooking time INCREASE the cooking time in one minute intervals and stir the
food every time if possible. Then, let it rest for at least 3 minutes.
Piercing
Foods in shells, skin or membranes will burst in the MW oven unless you pierce
them before cooking. This includes some kinds of smoked meats, yolks and egg
whites, clams, oysters and several kinds of vegetable and fruit.
Checking the state
Because foods will cook fast in the MW, it is necessary to check them
frequently. Some foods are left in the oven till they are cooked completely
but most of the foods (incl. meat and poultry) should be taken out of the oven
shortly before well-done and be let finish cooking out of the oven. During
this time, the inner temperature of the food will rise by 3 °C to 8 °C.
Lag time
Let the food rest when removed from the oven for at least 3 to 10 minutes. The
food is usually covered for this time to keep the heat inside unless it is
food whose texture should be dry (e.g. some kinds of breads and crackers). The
lag enables the cooking to finish and the taste and smell to spread.
SPECIAL PROCESSES DURING MICROWAVE COOKING
Placing and distance
The individual pieces of foods such as baked potatoes, small pieces of bread
and appetizers will heat up more evenly if they are spread in the MW oven by
same distance from each other, the ideal shape being circle. Do not stock the
ingredients on top of each other.
Stirring
Stirring is one of the most important processes in microwave cooking. Stirring
in microwave cooking serves to allow the heat to spread. Stir always from the
outside inward because the outer part of the food heats first.
Turning
Large and long ingredients (such as roast or whole poultry) do not need to be
turned for all the parts to cook evenly. It is also suitable to turn chopped
poultry and schnitzels.
Covering with foil
Strips of foil are sometimes put on the corners and edges of angular
ingredients (foil for MW ovens) which hold the microwaves and protect these
parts from over-cooking. Do not use an excessive amount of foil and always
attach it safely to the ingredient or the kitchen ware, otherwise sparkling
might occur in the oven which could damage it!
Lifting
It is good to lift heavy or thick foods so that the microwaves may penetrate
to the bottom part and inside the ingredient.
Browning
Meat and poultry cooked for 15 minutes or longer will brown slightly in their
fat. Foods prepared for a shorter time may be smeared with a sauce which will
cause browning and appealing look.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR HEATING FOODS
- Stir the foods regularly during heating. If stirring is not possible, position the food differently.
- Keep the lag times recommended in the literature in order to utilize the MW energy at full and prevent over-heating of the food.
- If you are not sure about if an ingredient will lose moisture during heating, wrap it tightly in a foil suitable for MW ovens and pierce the foil in several places.
- When heating potatoes in skin, bread, pastry or moist ingredients, place the ingredients on a sheet of blotting kitchen paper which will absorb the moisture.
- If you are going to heat the food on a plate, try placing them in an even layer.
- The times given in the literature are valid for heating ingredients at room temperature. If the ingredients are cold, increase the time.
- Place the heated ingredients on the plate in a way that the heavier, thicker and meatier parts are on the rim of the plate where they will absorb most of the energy and the thinner parts in the middle.
HOW TO ACHIEVE THE BEST RESULTS IN THE MW OVEN
Watch the operation of the product
The diagrams and values in this manual were prepared very thoroughly but your
success in preparing food depends on how much of your attention you will pay
to the food prepared.
Always watch the food prepared. The MW is equipped with a light which will
automatically light up when put to operation. Thanks to that it is possible to
watch the process of preparation. Consider instructions in literature such as
„increase“, „stir“ etc. minimal steps. If it seems that the meal is prepared
unevenly, do what you consider best to repair the flaws.
Cooking ware
Never use metal dishes, dishes with metal decorations or dishes coated with
foil. Microwaves do not penetrate metal. They will reflect off of the metal
objects in the oven and the walls and cause an electric arc – disturbing
phenomenon resembling lightning. Most fire-resistant non-metal dishes can be
used in the MW oven safely. Some dishes may contain materials due to which
they become unsuitable for MW cooking. If you have doubts about whether a
specific dish is suitable, you can find out in a simple way.
Testing dishes for microwave cooking
Test the dishes for MW suitability before using it in the MW oven. Put the
tested dish in the MW oven together with a glass bowl filled with water and
turn the oven on for minute at maximum power. If the water in the glass bowl
heats and the tested dish remains cold, this dish is suitable for microwave
cooking. If the tested dish is hot (Beware not to burn your fingers!), it
means that the microwaves were absorbed by the dish and this dish is not
suitable for microwave cooking.
Dishes for microwave cooking
- Most glass and glass-ceramic dishes are suitable. However, if they have metal/gold/ silver decorations, do not use them. Varnished/glazed coloured porcelain and glass must not be cut and hardened. We recommend round or oval dishes over square or rectangular dishes because the corner parts of the meal have a tendency to overcook.
- Paper, cardboard and pasteboard napkins, kitchen towels, plates, cups and dishes made of wood, straw or withe may be used in the MW oven for short-time heating.Do not use products of recycled paper, because they may contain impurities (particles of metal) which may cause sparkles or fire during cooking.
- Plastic plates, cups, bags and packages may be used in the MW oven. Follow the instructions of the manufacturer.
- Do not use metal dishes and dishes with metal decorations in the MW oven. If a recipe requires use of alu-foil, skewers or dishes containing metal, keep a gap of at least 2.5 cm between the metal object and the inner wall of the oven. If the electric arc (sparkling) appears, remove the metal object and replace it with a non-metal one
- Do not use sealed dishes (bottles with cork, caps etc.)
- Be careful when removing dishes or the turning plate from the oven. Some kinds of dishes may absorb heat from the food being cooked and become very hot.
- Use only thermometer which is intended or recommended for use in MW ovens.
The following table gives an overview for cooking in your MW oven:
Dish material| Cooking glass| Pyrex| Ceramic glass| Terracotta|
Aluminium foil| Plastic matter| Paper or pasteboard| Metal dishes
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---
Microwave mode| YES| YES| YES| YES| NO| YES| YES| NO
When heating up liquids in the MW oven such as soups, sauces and drinks, boiling might occur without any signs of bubbles. Then the hot liquid might suddenly boil over Keep the following instructions in order to prevent this
- Do not use dishes with straight walls and narrow necks.
- Do not overheat the liquids.
- Stir the liquid before putting the dish into the oven and then in half of the cooking time.
- To prevent burning, leave the dish in the MW oven for a short while, then stir the liquid again and check its temperature before serving (especially with children bottles).

Open the door; fix the oven to the cabinet with screw at the installation hole of trim kit. Then fix the trim-kit plastic cover to the installation hole.
Turntable installation
- Open the oven door and insert the turnable ring C. Put the glass tray on the top of the turntable ring D, so B.
- Never place the glass tray upside down. The glass tray should never be restricted.
- Both glass tray D and turntable ring C assembly must always be used during cooking.
- All food and containers of food are always placed on the glass tray for cooking.
- If glass tray or turntable ring assembly cracks or breaks, contact your nearest authorized service center.
NOTE : if the mw oven does not work properly, unplug it from the el. outlet, wait for 10 seconds and then connect it again.
Ventilation
Proper ventilation is necessary for cooling of the MW. If the ventilation
openings are covered during the operation of the MW, the MW will overheat. In
such case, a heat fuse will turn the MW off. The MW oven will not work unless
it has cooled down sufficiently. Air coming from the ventilation openings may
heat up during operation. This is normal. Steam is a normal product of
cooking. The MW is designed in order that this steam is released through
ventilation openings on the side and in the back of the appliance.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Why is the light in the MW oven not on?
- Bulb filament is burnt.
Why is there steam coming out of the openings and why is there water dripping from the bottom part of the door
- Emergence of steam during cooking is normal. The MW oven is equipped with ventilation openings through which the steam goes out. Sometimes the steam may condensate on the door and then water starts dripping from the bottom part of the door. It is utterly normal and safe.
Can the microwave energy penetrate the door window?
- No! Metal shielding reflects the energy back into the oven. Openings and inlets enable light to pass through but not MW energy.
Why do eggs sometimes burst?
- When baking or cooking eggs the yolk may burst because there is steam emerging in the yolk membrane. To avoid this, pierce the egg with a toothpick before cooking. Never cook eggs without piercing the shell!!
Why is there lag time recommended after the cooking ends?
- The lag time is very important. When cooking food in MW oven, heat emerges in the food, not in the oven. There emerges enough inner heat in many foods to continue the process of cooking even after removing the food from the oven. The purpose of the lag time with bigger pieces of meat, bigger pieces of vegetable and pies is to enable the inside of the food to cook through evenly without overcooking the outer parts.
Why does the microwave oven not always cook as fast as the instructions for preparing food state?
- Read the recipe once again to make sure that you have kept all instructions thoroughly and learn what may have caused the difference in preparation times. Preparation times and set temperatures are recommended values which should prevent over-cooking which is one of the most common problems of beginners when using the MW oven. Differences in terms of size, shape, weight, dimensions and temperature of the food will require longer or shorter time of preparation. Use your own judgment and recommended values to verify if the food has been prepared thoroughly just you would have prepared it with conventional cooking.
Why is there sparkling and crackling (electric arc) in the MW oven?
- You are using dishes with metal parts or decorations (silver or gold). You left a fork or another metal object in the oven. You are using too much of metal foil. You are using metal clips. There are remains of food in the MW oven.
MAINTENANCE
Disconnect the appliance from the el. outlet by pulling the fork of the supply cord from the socket before maintenance! Keep the inner surfaces of the MW clean and dry in order that no sediments of grease and food particles occurs. In general the MW oven should be cleaned every time it has been used.
Inner walls
Remove all remains of food between door and MW oven with a damp cloth. This
area must be cleaned very thoroughly in order that the door can be closed
properly. Remove all grease stains with a damp cloth then wipe and dry the
walls. Do not use cleaning agents which are rough and abrasive because they
will scratch and damage the surface of the MW oven. Remove the smells from the
inside of the oven by placing a microwaveable dish with water with lemon juice
squeezed from one lemon with skin and letting the microwaves work on it. Wipe
and dry the inside of the oven afterwards.
ATTENTION :
Never pour water into the MW oven!
Door
Door and door sealing must remain clean. Wash only with warm water with soap
and then dry thoroughly. Do not use any abrasive agents such as cleaning
powders or metal or plastic scrapers. Metal parts are best maintained by
wiping them frequently with a damp cloth.
Outer parts
Clean outer casing with a fine cloth with warm water, then dry it with a soft
cloth. Make sure that water does not get to the inner parts. If the supply
cord gets dirty, wipe it with clean cloth. Always make sure that the surface
of the door sealing is clean.
Turning plate
Clean the glass plate in clean water after each use. Remove the turning circle
and clean it in hot water with soap once a week. It is also necessary to
maintain the guiding are clean so that grease does not prevent the wheels to
turn. Otherwise, the noisiness of the oven might increase.
More extensive maintenance or maintenance requiring intervention in the inner
parts of the appliance must be carried out by professional service! Failure to
comply with the instructions of the manufacturer will lead to expiration of
the right to guarantee repair!
