MW865 inc. •GB 23-04-2002 16:16 Pagina 13 CHAPTER 1 - GENERAL 1.6 RULES AND GENERAL SUGGESTIONS FOR USING THE OVEN Microwaves consist of electromagnetic radiation found in nature under the form of light waves (e.g., sunlight). Inside the oven, these waves penetrate food from all directions and heat up the water, fatty and sugar molecules. Heat is produced very quickly only in the food itself, whereas the container being used warms up indirectly by means of heat given off by the heated food.

MW865 inc. •GB 23-04-2002 16:16 Pagina 19 CHAPTER 3 – USING THE OVEN: SUGGESTIONS AND TIME CHART 3.1 DEFROSTING • Frozen food in plastic bags, plastic film or cardboard packets can be placed directly in the oven for defrosting as provided the packet has no metal parts (e.g. metal ties or staples). • Certain foods, such as vegetables and fish, do not require complete defrosting before being cooking.
MW865 inc. •GB 23-04-2002 16:16 Pagina 20 CHAPTER 3 – USING THE OVEN: SUGGESTIONS AND TIME GRIDS 3.2 REHEATING Reheating food is one of the key features in which your microwave oven displays its usefulness and efficiency. Compared to traditional methods, a microwave saves time and electricity. • It is advisable to reheat food (especially if it is frozen) to a temperature of at least 70°C.
MW865 inc. •GB 23-04-2002 16:16 Pagina 21 CHAPTER 3 – USING THE OVEN: SUGGESTIONS AND TIME GRIDS 3.3 - COOKING ANTIPASTI AND FIRST COURSES Soups in general require less liquid because in a microwave oven evaporation is rather minimal. Salt must be added only at the end of cooking or during standing time as it dehydrates the food. It is fair to say that the time needed to cook rice in the microwave oven is more or less equal to the time taken to cook it on a stove in the traditional manner.
MW865 inc. •GB 23-04-2002 16:16 Pagina 22 CHAPTER 3 – USING THE OVEN: SUGGESTIONS AND TIME GRIDS 3.5 - COOKING SIDE DISHES AND VEGETABLES Vegetables cooked in a microwave oven preserve their colour and nutritional value better than traditional cooking. Wash and peel the vegetables before starting to cook. Larger vegetables should be cut into evenly-sized pieces. Add approx. 5 spoonfuls of water for every 500g of vegetables (vegetables which have a high fibre content will require more water).
MW865 inc. •GB 23-04-2002 16:16 Pagina 23 CHAPTER 3 – USING THE OVEN: SUGGESTIONS AND TIME GRIDS 3.6 - COOKING FISH Fish cooks very quickly and with excellent results. It can be dressed with a little butter or oil (if so desired). Cover it with transparent film. If skin is left on, this must be scored, and the fillets should be arranged evenly. It is not advisable to cook fish battered or crumbed.

The internal cavity of your oven is covered with a special non-stick finish to which splashes and food particles do not stick, thus making cleaning particularly simple. Always keep the microwave outlet cover (C) clean and free from grease and splashes of fat.

MW865 inc. •GB 23-04-2002 16:16 ELECTRICAL A) Pagina 27 CONNECTION If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incorporate a 13 Amp fuse. If it does not fit your socket, the plug should be cut off from the mains lead, and an appropriate plug fitted, as below. WARNING: Very carefully dispose of the cut off plug after removing the fuse: do not insert in a 13 Amp socket elsewhere in the house as this could cause a shock hazard.
