Pelgrim MAC696RVS - How a Microwave Oven Works

EN 11
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves. The energy makes it possible to cook
or warm up dishes without aecting the form or colour.
You can use your microwave for the following:
• Microwave setting
• Combi functions
Preparation principle
1. The microwaves which the microwave generates are
spread evenly by a distribution system. This cooks
the dish evenly.
2. The microwaves are absorbed to a depth of
approximately 2.5 cm by the dish. Cooking then
continues, because the heat is spread in the dish.
3. The preparation times vary and depend on the dish
you use and the properties of the food:
•
Quantity and density
•
Moisture content
•
Starting temperature (whether or not it is cooled)
Important
The dish is cooked from the inside out by means of heat distribution. The cooking continues
even when you take the dish from the oven.
Standing times in recipes and in this book must therefore be adhered to, in order to ensure
•
Even heating into the middle of the dish;
•
Equal temperatures in all parts of the dish.
