DESCRIPTION OF THE OVEN

ACCESSORIES

Anti-tip safety rack (fig. A).

The rack should never be used with other
metal cookware in microwave function. 
However, you can reheat food in an alumi-
nium tray providing this is isolated from the
rack using a plate.

The shelf supports (fig.B)

2 hanging supports allow you to use the rack
at three heights.

The turntable (fig.C)

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 pro-
perly positioned.
It may be used as a cooking dish. For
easy removal, wells are provided on ei-
ther side. 
Rotation is controlled by the drive shaft
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 ma-
nually, as you could damage the drive sys-
tem. 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 half-way through the programme. 

OPERATING PRINCIPLE

The microwaves used for cooking are elec-
tromagnetic 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 behaviour:

       · 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 mo-
lecules 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 centre of the food will be coo-
ked by conduction, as in conventional coo-
king.
Note that microwaves cause a simple ther-
mal phenomenon within food and are not
harmful to health.
