INTRODUCTION HOW YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN WORKS Microwaves are a form of energy similar to radio and television waves. Your microwave oven is constructed in such a way as to take advantage of microwave energy. Electricity is converted into microwave energy by the magnetron tube, and microwaves are then directed into the cooking area through openings in the oven. Microwaves reflect off the metal walls of the oven. They can be transmitted through glass, paper, wicker and microwavesafe cooking dishes.
INTRODUCTION Spacing: Individual foods such as baked potatoes, cupcakes, and hors d'oeuvres will heat more evenly if placed in the oven an equal distance apart, preferably in a circular pattern. HOW CHARACTERISTICS OF FOOD AFFECT MICROWAVE COOKING Quantity: The greater the volume of food, the longer it takes to cook it. In general, cooking time is increased by about 50 percent, when doubling a recipe. Time is reduced by approximately 40 percent when cutting a recipe in half.
INTRODUCTION MICROWAVE-SAFE UTENSILS Never use metal or metal-trimmed utensils in your microwave oven. Microwaves cannot penetrate metal. They will bounce off metal objects in the oven and cause "arcing", which resembles lightning. Most heat-resistant, nonmetallic cooking utensils are safe for use in your microwave oven. However, some may contain materials that render them unsuitable for microwave cooking.

OTHER HELPFUL INSTRUCTIONS For Best Results: Time Variations: 1. When determining time for a particular food, begin by using the minimum time and check occasionally for desired doneness. 2. Small quantities of food or foods with low water content may burn, dry out, or become hard if cooked too long. 3. Do not cook eggs in the shell. They may burst. 4. Foods with non-porous skin or membrane (i.e. apples, potatoes, eggs) should be pierced when heated whole to prevent bursting. 5.
CARE OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN TO CLEAN YOUR OVEN: 1. Keep the inside of the oven clean. Food spatters or spilled liquids stick to oven walls and between seal and door surface. It is best to wipe up spillovers with a damp cloth right away. Crumbs and spillovers will absorb microwave energy and lengthen cooking times. Use a damp cloth to wipe out crumbs that fall between the door and the frame. It is important to keep this area clean to assure a tight seal.
