Normally, outwards as they travel through the atmosphere and disappear without effect. Microwave ovens, however, have a magnetron which is designed to make use of the energy in microwaves. Electricity, supplied to the magnetron tube, is used to created microwave energy. These microwaves enter the at the bottom of the penetrate cooking cooking area through openings inside the oven. A turntable or tray is located Microwaves cannot pass through metal walls of the oven, but they can such materials as glass, porcelain and paper, the materials out of which microwave-safe dishes are oven. constructed. Microwaves do not heat cookware, by the food. A very safe Your microwave though cooking vessels will eventually get hot from the heat generated appliance is one of the safest of all home appliances.

Why is microwave A Why doesn't my oven always cook as fast as the cooking guide says? Check your cooking guide again to make sure you've followed directions correctly, and to see what might cause variations in cooking time. Cooking guide times and heat settings are suggestions, chosen to help prevent overcooking, the most common problem in getting used to a microwave oven. Variations in the size, shape, weight and dimensions of the food require longer cooking time. Use your own judgement along with the cooking guide suggestions to test food condition, just as you would do with 22 a conventional cooker.
