OPERATION THEORY OF MICROWAVE OVEN1. Microwave is a form of high frequency electromagnetic wave, which is commonly distributed in thenature. 53507Microwaves are dispersed in nature so that they cannot be concentrated for heatingpurpose. The magnetron microwave generator in the oven transforms the energy of electricity tomicrowave and the energy of microwave field is concentrated inside the closed cavity. Food moleculesare caused to vibrate at very high speed and the friction heat produced cooks the food quickly.2. There are 3 properties of microwave:a) Absorbability: the microwave can cause the excess vibration of molecule of various food so as toobtain the heating purpose. But the infiltration ability is largely depend on the size, thickness andproperties of the food.b) Penetrability: microwave can penetrate through ceramics, glass, temperature-resistant plastics. It isrequired to use the containers whose material have good microwave penetrability to achieve bestheating result. See the below utensils guide.c) Reflectivity: microwave would be reflected by the metal wall of interior cavity so as to establish aneven magnetic field, thus can prevent the overheating of partial area.INSTALLATION OF MICROWAVE OVEN1) The position of the oven shall be such that it is far from the TV, Radio or antenna as picturedisturbance or noise may occur.2) The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.3) This is a cabinet microwave oven, which is subject to PRECAUTIONS and INSTALLATIONbelow .1 PRECAUTIONS:To ensure THIS microwave oven against a poor ventilation work, fires as well as an undue life, apossible cabinet shall follow:a) Intake and exhaust port on back surface, as shown in Fig.4.b) Net depth≥550mm, as shown in Fig.3.c) Reference plate thickness between 18 and 20mm.2 INSTALLATION:a) Secure top air guide onto housing while outer-back baffle onto outer-back plate with self-lockscrews, as shown in Fig.1.b) Secure holders onto each side housing with self-lock screws, as shown in Fig.2.3

MICROWAVE COOKING TIP1) Arranging foodPlace thicker areas toward outside of dish and the thinner meat in the center and spread them evenly. Donot overlap if possible.2) Cooking timeStart cooking with the shorter period of time and extend it according to the actual need. Overcookingmay result in smoking and burning.3) Cover foods before cooking refer to the recipeUse paper towels, microwave plastic wrap or a cover to cover food so that prevent spattering and helpfoods to cook evenly. (Helps keep oven clean).4) Partial shielding of foodUse small pieces of aluminium foil to cover thin areas of meats or poultry to avoid overcooking.5) Stir foodsFrom outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if possible.6) Turn foodsFoods such as chicken, hamburgers or steaks should be turned over once during cooking.7) Rearrange foodsPlease change the positions of food in half way during cooking such as: from top to bottom and fromthe center of the dish to the outside.8) Allow standing timeAfter cooking ensure adequate standing time. Remove food from oven and stir if possible. Cover forstanding time which allows the food to finish cooking without overcooking.9) Check for donenessObserve the food color and hardness to determine whether the food is cooked. Doneness signs include:-Steams throughout food, not just at edge part.- Joints of Poultry move easily.- Pork and poultry show no evidence of blood.- Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.10) CondensationIt is a normal case of microwave cooking. The humidity and moisture of food will influence the amountof moisture in the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncoveredfoods. Ensure that the ventilation openings are not blocked.11) Microwave safe plastic wrapFor cooking food with high fat content, do not bring the wrap in contact with the food as it may melt.12) Microwave safe plastic cookwareSome microwave safe plastic cookware are not suitable for cooking foods with high fat and sugarcontent.15
