2. EX-72D UK ENGLISH 09/02/2006 13:47 Page 8 WHAT ARE MICROWAVES? Like radio and television waves, microwaves are electromagnetic waves. Microwaves are produced by a magnetron inside the microwave oven, and these vibrate the molecules of water present in the food. The friction this causes produces heat, which ensures that the food is defrosted, heated or cooked through. The secret of the reduced cooking times is the fact that the microwaves penetrate the food from every direction.
