Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released 
enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or 
the colour.
You can use your microwave oven to:

•  Defrost
•  Instant Reheat/Cook
•  Cook

Cooking Principle.
1.  The microwaves generated by the magnetron are 

distributed uniformly as the food rotates on the 
turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly.

2.  The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to 

a depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then 
continues as the heat is dissipated within the food.

3.  Cooking times vary according to the recipient used 

and the properties of the food:
•  Quantity and density

•  Water content

•  Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)

As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking 
continues even when you have taken the food out of the oven. 
Standing times specified in recipes and in this booklet must therefore 
be respected to ensure:
•  Even cooking of the food right to the centre
•  The same temperature throughout the food

The following simple procedure enables you to check that your oven is 
working correctly at all times. Open the oven door by pushing the large 
button in the bottom right-hand corner of the control panel.
First, place a bowl of water on the turntable. Then, close the door.
1.  Press the Power Level button and set the time 

to 4-5 minutes by pressing the 

1min button the 

appropriate number of times.

2.  Press the Start button.

result : 

The oven heats the water for 4 to 5 
minutes. The water should then be 
boiling.

The oven must be plugged into an appropriate wall socket. The 
turntable must be in position in the oven. If a power level other than the 
maximum is used, the water takes longer to boil.
