MICROWAVE OVEN USE
A magnetron in the microwave oven produces microwaves which
reflect off the metal floor, walls and ceiling and pass through the
turntable and appropriate cookware to the food. Microwaves are
attracted to and absorbed by fat, sugar and water molecules in
the food, causing them to move, producing friction and heat
which cooks the food.
■ To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not lean on or
allow children to swing on the microwave oven door.
■ To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not operate
microwave oven when it is empty.
■ Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in
microwave oven.
■ Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, paper, including
brown paper bags and newspaper, should not be dried in
microwave oven.
■ Paraffin wax will not melt in the microwave oven because it
does not absorb microwaves.
■ Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing containers from
microwave oven.
■ Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended
cook time, potatoes should be slightly firm. Let potatoes
stand for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.
■ Do not cook or reheat whole eggs inside the shell. Steam
buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst, requiring
significant cleanup of microwave oven cavity. Cover poached
eggs and allow a standing time.
Food Characteristics
When microwave cooking, the amount, size and shape, starting
temperature, composition and density of the food affect cooking
results.
Amount of Food
The more food heated at once, the longer the cook time needed.
Check for doneness and add small increments of time if
necessary.
Size and Shape
Smaller pieces of food will cook more quickly than larger pieces,
and uniformly shaped foods cook more evenly than irregularly
shaped food.
Starting Temperature
Room temperature foods will heat faster than refrigerated foods,
and refrigerated foods will heat faster than frozen foods.
Composition and Density
Foods high in fat and sugar will reach a higher temperature, and
will heat faster than other foods. Heavy, dense foods, such as
meat and potatoes, require a longer cook time than the same size
of a light, porous food, such as cake.
Cooking Guidelines
Covering
Covering food helps retain moisture, shorten cook time and
reduce spattering. Use the lid supplied with cookware. If a lid is
not available, wax paper, paper towels or plastic wrap approved
for microwave ovens may be used. Plastic wrap should be turned
back at one corner to provide an opening to vent steam.
Condensation on the door and cavity surfaces is normal during
heavy cooking.
Stirring and Turning
Stirring and turning redistribute heat evenly to avoid overcooking
the outer edges of food. Stir from outside to center. If possible,
turn food over from bottom to top.
Arranging
If heating irregularly shaped or different sized foods, arrange the
thinner parts and smaller sized items toward the center. If
cooking several items of the same size and shape, place them in
a ring pattern, leaving the center of the ring empty.
Piercing
Before heating, use a fork or small knife to pierce or prick foods
that have a skin or membrane, such as potatoes, egg yolks,
chicken livers, hot dogs, and sausage. Prick in several places to
allow steam to vent.
8
Shielding
Use small, flat pieces of aluminum foil to shield the thin pieces of
irregularly shaped foods, bones and foods such as chicken
wings, leg tips and fish tail. See “Aluminum Foil and Metal” first.
Standing Time
Food will continue to cook by the natural conduction of heat even
after the microwave cooking cycle ends. The length of standing
time depends on the volume and density of the food.
Cookware and Dinnerware
Cookware and dinnerware must fit on the turntable. Always use
oven mitts or pot holders when handling because any dish may
become hot from heat transferred from the food. Do not use
cookware and dinnerware with gold or silver trim. Use the
following chart as a guide, then test before using.
To Test Cookware or Dinnerware for Microwave Use:
1. Place 1 cup (250 mL) of water next to cookware or
dinnerware in microwave oven.
2. Cook at 100% cooking power for 1 minute.
Do not use cookware or dinnerware if it becomes hot and the
water stays cool.
Aluminum Foil and Metal
Always use oven mitts or pot holders when removing dishes from
the microwave oven.
Aluminum foil and some metal can be used in the microwave
oven. If not used properly, arcing (a blue flash of light) can occur
and cause damage to the microwave oven.
OK for Use
Racks and bakeware supplied with the microwave oven (on some
models), aluminum foil for shielding, and approved meat
thermometers may be used with the following guidelines:
■ To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow
aluminum foil or metal to touch the inside cavity walls,
ceiling or floor.
■ Always use the turntable.
■ To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow
contact with another metal object during microwave cooking.
Do Not Use
Metal cookware and bakeware, gold, silver, pewter, non-
approved meat thermometers, skewers, twist ties, foil liners
such as sandwich wrappers, staples and objects with gold or
silver trim or a metallic glaze should not be used in the
microwave oven.
Microwave Cooking Power
Many recipes for microwave cooking specify which cooking
power to use by percent or name. For example,
500W=Medium-High.
To see the exact power level during a cooking cycle, press Power
Level control. The display will briefly show the current power
level, then will return to the cooking countdown.
Use the following chart as a general guide for the suggested
cooking power of specific foods.

UTILISATION DU FOUR À MICRO-ONDES
Un magnétron dans le four à micro-ondes produit des micro-
ondes qui rebondissent de la base, des parois et de la voûte en
métal et qui passent à travers le plateau rotatif et les ustensiles
de cuisson appropriés pour atteindre l’aliment. Les micro-ondes
sont attirées et absorbées par le gras, le sucre et les molécules
d’eau dans les aliments et font déplacer ces molécules, en
produisant une friction et une chaleur qui fait cuire les aliments.
■ Pour éviter d’endommager le four à micro-ondes, ne pas
s’appuyer ou laisser les enfants se balancer sur la porte du
four à micro-ondes.
■ Pour éviter d’endommager le four à micro-ondes, ne pas faire
fonctionner le four à micro-ondes à vide.
■ Les biberons et les petits pots d’aliments pour bébés ne
doivent pas être chauffés dans le four à micro-ondes.
■ Les vêtements, fleurs, fruits, herbes, gourdes, le bois, le
papier - y compris les sacs en papier brun et les journaux - ne
doivent pas être séchés dans le four à micro-ondes.
■ La paraffine ne fondra pas dans le four à micro-ondes car elle
n’absorbe pas les micro-ondes.
■ Utiliser des mitaines de four ou des maniques lorsque l’on
enlève des contenants du four à micro-ondes.
■ Ne pas faire cuire les pommes de terre excessivement. À la
fin de la durée de cuisson recommandée, les pommes de
terre devraient être légèrement fermes. Laisser les pommes
de terre reposer pendant 5 minutes. Elles achèveront de cuire
pendant cette période.
■ Ne pas faire cuire ou réchauffer des œufs entiers avec leur
coquille. La vapeur accumulée dans les œufs entiers pourrait
les faire éclater, ce qui exigerait le nettoyage significatif de la
cavité du four à micro-ondes. Recouvrir les œufs pochés et
les laisser reposer.
Caractéristiques des aliments
Lors de la cuisson au four à micro-ondes, la quantité, la taille, la
forme, la température de début, la composition et la densité de
l’aliment affectent les résultats de cuisson.
Quantité d’aliments
La quantité d’aliments chauffés influencera la durée de cuisson.
Vérifier le degré de cuisson et prolonger légèrement la durée si
nécessaire.
Taille et forme
Des morceaux plus petits d’aliments cuiront plus vite que les
gros morceaux, et les aliments uniformes cuiront plus également
que les aliments de forme irrégulière.
Température de début
Les aliments à température ambiante chaufferont plus vite que
les aliments réfrigérés, et les aliments réfrigérés chaufferont plus
vite que les aliments congelés.
Composition et densité
Les aliments à haute teneur en gras et en sucre atteindront une
température plus élevée et chaufferont plus vite que les autres.
Les aliments lourds et denses, tels que la viande et les pommes
de terre, nécessitent un temps de cuisson plus long qu’un
aliment de la même taille, léger et poreux tel que les gâteaux.
