ACCESSORIES
Anti-tip safety rack (fig. A).
This allows you to toast, brown or grill. The rack should never be used with
other metal cookware on the microwave, grill + microwave or forced air +
microwave modes. However, you can reheat food in an aluminum tray providing
this is isolated from the rack using a plate.
The glass drip tray (fig. B).
This can be used half-filled with water for double-boiler cooking methods in
fan cooking. It can be used as a cooking dish.
Note: Take care to place the drip tray in the center of the side racks to
avoid affecting air circulation.
Rack + glass drip tray (fig.C) to roast and retain the cooking juices,
place the rack on the drip tray. The shelf supports (fig.D) 2 hanging supports
allow you to use the rack at three heights.
The turntable (fig.E) The turntable ensures equal cooking of food
throughout with no need to intervene. It rotates in both directions. If it
does not turn, verify that all components are properly positioned. It may be
used as a cooking dish. For easy removal, wells are provided on either side.
Rotation is controlled by the driveshaft and the wheel support. If you take
out the support with the drive spindle, make sure you do not let water get
into the motor spindle orifice. Remember to put back the support, the support
wheels, and the glass turntable. Do not try to rotate the glass turntable
manually, as you could damage the drive system. If it does not turn smoothly,
make sure that there is nothing in the well beneath the turntable.
When the turntable is in the stop position, large dishes can be used which
cover the entire surface of the oven. In this case, it is necessary to turn
the container or to mix its content halfway through the program.
OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The microwaves used for cooking are electromagnetic waves. They are commonly found in our environment in the form of radio waves, light and infrared rays. Their frequency is in the 2450 MHz range. Their behavior:
-
They are reflected by metals.
They travel through all other materials. -
They are absorbed by water, fat, and sugar molecules.
When food is exposed to microwaves its molecules begin moving rapidly, causing it to heat up. The penetration depth of waves into the food is approximately 2.5 cm; if the food is thicker, the center of the food will be cooked by conduction, as in conventional cooking. Note that microwaves cause a simple thermal phenomenon within the food and are not harmful to health.
