MESURES DE SECURITE IMPORTANTES
1. Pour éviter toute ébullition ou éruption spontanée,
remuer vigoureusement ou verser les liquides
avant de les chauffer au four à micro-ondes. Ne
pas trop chauffer. Si de l’air n’a pas été incorporé
dans le liquide, celui-ci peut déborder dans le
four ou après en avoir été retiré.
2. Ne pas faire de friture dans le four. La graisse
pourrait surchauffer et devenir dangereuse à
manipuler.
3. Les oeufs ne doivent pas être chauffés ou
réchauffés au four à micro-ondes dans leur
coquille ou avec leur jaune intact ; cela pourrait
provoquer une accumulation de pression et
l’éclatement de l’oeuf. Percer le jaune avec
une fourchette ou un couteau avant la cuisson.
4. Percer la peau des pommes de terre, tomates et
aliments similaires avant de les cuire au four à
micro-ondes. Lorsque la peau est percée, la
vapeur peut s’échapper uniformément.
5. Ne pas faire fonctionner l’appareil sans nourriture
à l’intérieur.
6. Pour faire du pop-corn, utiliser uniquement du
maïs en paquet spécial micro-ondes (indiqué sur
l’étiquette). Le temps nécessaire pour faire
éclater le maïs varie en fonction de la puissance
du four. Ne pas continuer à faire chauffer le maïs
une fois qu’il a fini d’éclater, car il peut brûler ou
s’enflammer. Ne pas laisser le four sans
surveillance.
7. Ne pas utiliser de thermomètre de cuisson pour four
traditionnel dans le four. La plupart des
thermomètres de cuisson contiennent du mercure
qui peut causer des arcs électriques ou le mauvais
fonctionnement du four, ou encore endommager
celui-ci.
8. Ne pas faire chauffer de biberon au four.
9. Ne pas utiliser d’ustensiles métalliques dans le four.

Oven Clearances
Installation Cooking Guidelines
The Amana Microwave Oven can make your job easier.
You’ll cook ahead and pre-portion more. You’ll also spend
less time preparing special-order dishes.
To be sure of consistently good results, remember a few
simple guidelines.
How Microwave Ovens Heat Food
All food and liquid molecules have positive and negative
particles which are in constant, but slow, motion. (Positive
and negatives attract and repel each other like magnets.)
In microwave cooking this molecular action is then
accelerated. The instant microwaves bombard food they
agitate the molecules. Agitation causes friction as
molecules rub and bump into each other at a increased
rate. Friction results in heat that cooks food and boils
water.
Once the microwaves stop, this friction action continues
by itself, eventually tapering off and returning to normal
molecular action.
Microwaves penetrate food to a depth of ¾" to 1½". As
cooking begins, heat is spread by conduction to the
interior portion of the food just as in conventional cooking
methods. Your microwave oven features variable power
settings that allow you to choose the speed at which food
cooks.
Food Variables
Microwave cooking can be directly affected by different
food variables.
The shape of foods can greatly affect the amount of
cooking time. Foods that are flat and thin heat faster than
foods which are chunky. For example, a casserole will
cook faster in a flat dish, rather than if heaped in a small
dish. Foods cut into small pieces will cook faster than
large-shaped foods. Pieces should be of a uniform size
and shape for more uniform cooking, or the smaller pieces
will cook faster. The greatest amount of heating takes
place within ¾" of the food’s surface. The interior of large
food items, or dense foods, is heated by the heat con-
ducted from the outer food layer. The most uniform
heating occurs in flat, doughnut-shaped foods. For best
results, cook foods together which have similar sizes and
shapes.
9
The quantity or volume of a food can affect the amount of
cooking time. As the volume of the food is increased, the
time required to cook or heat the item increases almost
proportionately. If twice the amount of food is placed in the
oven, it will take almost twice as long to cook. To deter-
mine the time for larger quantities, multiply the individual
serving time by the increased amount, then reduce the
total heating time by about 20%.
The density of foods can greatly affect the amount of
cooking time. Porous foods, such as breads, cakes or
pastries, will heat much more quickly than dense meats
of the same size. Porous foods absorb microwaves
quickly throughout. Meats absorb microwaves mostly at
the exterior surface, and the interior is heated by conduc-
tion, increasing the cooking time. Meats can be cooked in
a sauce, if desired. Due to the moisture content, a sauce
will heat rapidly. The heat will transfer to the meat, so the
meat will heat faster due to heat by conduction as well as
by microwaves.
The starting temperature of foods affects the amount of
cooking time. Each temperature degree that the food item
is to raise must be supplied with a definite amount of
energy. Lower initial starting temperatures require more
energy and more time to cook. Therefore, refrigerator
temperature foods require a longer cooking time than do
room temperature foods. Foods already slightly warm will
heat very quickly in the oven.
The moisture content of foods affects the amount of
cooking time. The higher the moisture content is in a food
the longer the amount of cooking time.
The fat and sugar content of foods affects the amount of
cooking time. Foods containing high fat and sugar levels
heat very quickly and may reach much higher tempera-
tures than foods having low fat and sugar levels. Foods
having lower fat and sugar levels require longer cooking
times.
The arrangement of food within a microwave oven cavity
affects the way in which the food cooks. A “round”
arrangement is best. Use round utensils whenever
possible. Also, arrange foods such as baked potatoes in
a circle, rather than in rows, for cooking. When only one
food item is being cooked, place it in the center of the
oven glass shelf for cooking.
Manipulation of Foods
Sometimes recipes suggest manipulating or moving food
during cooking. There are several forms of manipulation:
Stirring is required less often in microwave cooking than
in conventional cooking. In conventional cooking, you use
a spoon to move food up from the bottom of a pan to
evenly distribute the heat. In microwave cooking, you still
stir to redistribute the heat within some foods, but you
need to stir from the outside of a dish toward the inside or
center. If a recipe states to stir once or twice during
cooking, stir at approximately even intervals. For ex-
ample, in a 12-minute cooking period, if a recipe states to
stir twice, stir after 4 minutes of cooking and again, after 8
minutes of cooking. However, it is not necessary to be
precise. Stir only when necessary. When using lower
power levels or settings, less stirring is required. Some
examples of foods which may require stirring are pud-
dings, some casseroles, some sauces, some soups, and
some egg dishes. Some foods can’t be stirred. These
foods are rearranged or turned.
Some foods can’t be stirred and should be repositioned
or rearranged during cooking. Some examples include
baked potatoes, cupcakes (in custard cups), and
chicken pieces. Rearranging allows for more even
cooking of foods. Foods which are cooked, covered or
which are cooked using lower power levels, usually
require little rearranging.
There are actually two types of turning. Turning is done
when foods cannot be stirred. Foods which are cooked,
covered or which are cooked at lower power levels usually
require little turning.
Turning foods over: Turning foods over is done to
distribute heat. Meat and poultry are two types of foods
which are sometimes “turned over.” Examples include
roasts, turkeys and whole chickens. Small meat items
such as poultry pieces may need to be turned over when
in casseroles, or when in a browning skillet.

Microwave Utensils
CAUTION
!
To avoid burns, use protective gloves or pads when
removing dishes from oven. Some utensils become
hot while cooking.
Never use cooking containers or covers with any metal
content. This includes all metal and enameled metal-
core ware, foil, and metal-trimmed containers. Suitable
heating containers include those made of paper
products, glass, china, cloth, and wicker baskets.

Cooking Hints
Cover foods for faster, more even heating. Glass lids,
plastic wrap, plate covers or other paper products may be
used. Do not seal. Instead, allow for steam-venting at all
times.
Pierce pouches, plastic wrap covers and all foods
with a thin skin or membrane, such as potatoes, squash,
tomatoes, eggs, etc. This prevents an eruption in the oven
and allows for expansion and/or the escape of steam.
Foods should be carefully arranged. For best results,
arrange food such as vegetables or casserole-type items
evenly around the edge of the plate with slightly less
depth in the center. The edges of food items should not
overlap or overhang the rim of the container. Cover meats
with gravy or au jus and moisten all dry foods other than
bread or pastry items.
Do not stack food or plated dishes in your oven.
Instead, when heating more than one serving or platters,
all plates should be placed at the same level in the oven,
with space between all containers.
