Introduction - Merrychef Microcook MD Manual De Instrucciones

INTRODUCTION

Merrychef Microwave ovens use microwave energy to cook or heat food in a fraction of the
time of conventional ovens.
The microwaves are confined within the sealed metal cavity of the oven and cannot pass
through the reinforced glass window of the door.The door is electrically sealed with three
interlocking safety switches which ensures that the energy stops automatically as soon as
the door moves.
It is important to understand the amount of energy produced inside your oven, known as the
power output ( see TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS section ), because this determines the
amount of time rquired to heat an item. Also, with a given amount of energy inside the
cavity, two items will take longer than one.
Just like any other heating method, if food is left cooking in a microwave oven for too long it
will burn and eventually catch fire. If you are unsure about the required heating time it is
safest to underestimate and monitor the items closely but always check that the minimum
core temperature has been achieved.
Once established, precise cooking instructions for selected items may be programmed into
the oven's memory so that they can be repeated easily and accurately.
Multi-stage Programming
The Microcook MD Series offers even greater flexibility by allowing multi-stage programming.
This enables the exact conditions required for quality results to be set according to the food
type. Programs can have one, two or three stages.
A typical 3-Stage program is shown below. In stage 1 the item is defrosted for 9 minutes 59
seconds ( by applying a gentle microwave power-*). In stage 2 the microwave power
increases to 50% for 5 minutes and for the final 5 minutes-Stage 3- power is increased to
100%.
This is only one example of a multi-staged program that can be stored.
The instructions outlined in this guide are intended to ensure the safety and long life of
your microwave oven.
It is important that all staff are fully trained before using the oven.
