Round/oval dishes are preferable to square/oblongo ensure good results. Many of the following techniques, as the food in the corners tends to overcool are similar to those used in conventional cooking.

FOOD CHARACTERISTICS

Composition Foods high in fat or sugar (e.g. Christmas pudding, mince pies) require less heating time. Care should be taken as overheating can lead to fire.

Density Food density will affect the amount of cooking time needed. Light porous foods, such as cakes or bread, cook more quickly than heavy, dense foods, such as roasts and casseroles.

Quantity The cooking time must be increased as the amount of food placed in the oven increases. E.g. Four potatoes will take longer to cook than two.

Size Small foods and small pieces cook faster than large ones, as microwaves can penetrate from all sides to the centre. For even cooking make all the pieces the same size.

Shape Foods which are irregular in shape, such as chicken breasts or drumsticks, take longer to cook in the thicker parts. Round shapes cook more evenly than square shapes when microwave cooking.

Temperature The initial temperature of food affects the amount of cooking time needed. Chilled foods will take longer to cook than food at room temperature. Cut into foods with fillings, e.g. jam doughnuts, to release heat or steam.

COOKING TECHNIQUES

Arrange Cover PiercePlace the thickest parts of food towards the outside of the dish. E.g. Chicken drumsticks.Use vented microwave cling film or a suitable lid.Foods with a shell, skin or membrane must be pierced in several places before cooking or reheating as steam will build up and may cause food to explode, e.g. Potatoes, Fish, Chicken, Sausages Important: Eggs should not be heated using microwave power as they may explode, even after cooking has ended, e.g. poached, fried, hard boiled.For even cooking it is essential to stir, turn and rearrange food during cooking. Always stir and rearrange from the outside towards the centre.Standing time is necessary after cooking to enable the heat to disperse equally throughout the food. Some areas of food being defrosted may become warm. Warm areas can be shielded with small pieces of foil, which reflect microwaves, e.g. legs and wings on a chicken.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANERS, STEAM CLEANERS, ABRASIVE, HARSH CLEANERS, ANY THAT CONTAIN SODIUM HYDROXIDE OR SCOURING PADS ON ANY PART OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN.

CLEAN THE OVEN AT REGULAR INTERVALS AND REMOVE ANY FOOD DEPOSITS.

Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to a deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.

Oven exterior

The outside of your oven can be cleaned easily with mild soap and water. Make sure the soap is wiped off with a moist cloth, and dry the exterior with a soft towel.

Oven controls

Open the door before cleaning to de-activate the oven controls. Care should be taken when cleaning the oven control. Using a cloth dampened with water only, gently wipe the panel until it becomes clean. Avoid using excessive amounts of water. Do not use any sort of chemical or abrasive cleaner.

Oven Interior

  1. For cleaning, wipe any splatters or spills with soft damp cloth or sponge after each use when the oven is still warm. For heavier spills, use mild soap and wipe several times with a damp cloth until all residues are removed. Do not remove the waveguide cover.
  2. Make sure that mild soap or water does not penetrate the small vents in the walls which may cause damage to the oven.
  3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven interior.

Turntable and turntable support

Remove the turntable and turntable support from the oven. Wash the turntable and turntable support in mild soapy water. Dry with a soft cloth. Both the turntable and the turntable support are dishwasher safe.

Door

To remove all trace of dirt, regularly clean both sides of the door, the door seals and sealing surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

NOTE: A steam cleaner should not be used.
