Welcome to Panasonic Microwave Cooking
Dear Owner,
Thank you for purchasing a Panasonic Microwave Oven.
Even if this is not your first microwave oven, do please read the opening chapters of
this cookbook to achieve perfect results every time.
This microwave oven has the benefit of the Inverter System Inside. The new unique
technology has been in use with microwave ovens in Japan for many years,
improving the cooking performance of the oven. It also means that you benefit from
having more space inside your oven, without taking up more room on your work
surface.
Microwaves leave most foods tastier and leave you with less washing up, but don’t
expect to become a perfect microwave cook overnight – some of the methods are
very different to those used in conventional cooking.
At our busy Test and Development Kitchen in Bracknell, Home Economists program
the ovens especially for the UK market. The recipes are tested many times to ensure
you achieve successful results at home.
We hope you enjoy using your new oven but should you require any further help or
explanation, phone our
