How a microwave oven works
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
• Reheat
• Cook
Cooking principle. 
1. 
The microwaves generated by the 
magnetron reflected at cavity and 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 
container used and the properties of the 
food:
• Quantity and density
• Water content
• Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)
IMPORTANT
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.
