Microwaving Tips

●

Make sure all cookware used in your microwave oven is suitable for microwaving.

casseroles, cooking dishes, measuring cups, custard cups, pottery or china dinnerware which does not have metallic trim or glaze with a metallic sheen can be used. Some cookware is labeled “suitable for microwaving.”

If you are not sure if a dish is microwave-safe, use this test:

Place in the oven both the dish you are testing and a glass measuring cup filled with one cup water—set the measuring cup either in or next to the dish. Microwave 1 minute at high. If the dish heats, it should not be used for microwaving. If the dish

remains cool and only the water in the cup heats, then the dish is microwave-safe.

●

Paper towels, wax paper and

plastic wrap

dishes in order to retain moisture and prevent spattering. Be sure to vent plastic wrap so steam can escape.

●

Some microwaved foods require stirring, rotating or rearranging.

● Steam builds up pressure in

foods which are tightly covered by a skin or membrane. Pierce

potatoes, egg yolks and chicken livers to prevent bursting.

Most glass

can be used to cover

AUTOMATIC

Cooking appliances installed under the oven may, under some heavy usage conditions, cause temperatures high enough to overheat some internal parts of the microwave oven.

To prevent overheating from taking place, the exhaust fan is designed to automatically turn on at a low speed if excessive temperatures occur. Should this happen, the fan can not be manually turned off, but it will automatically turn off when the internal parts have cooled. The fan may stay on up to approximately 30 minutes after the range and microwave oven controls have been turned off.

Questions and Answers

Q. When I press START, I hear a

letting you know the oven is using a

power level lower than 10 (High). Q. Can I defrost small items in

a hurry? A. Yes,

frequent attention than usual. Raise the power level after entering the time by touching the desired power level pad. Power level 7 cuts the total defrosting time in about 1/2; Power level 10 cuts the total defrosting time to approximately

1/3. During either, rotate or stir

food frequently. Q.

times in the cookbook seem right for my food?

A. Cookbook times are averages.

Defrosting time can vary according to the temperature in your freezer. Set your oven for the time indicated in your cookbook. If your food is still not completely thawed at the end of that time, reset your oven and adjust the time accordingly.

For even defrosting, some foods

● Family-size, pre-packaged

● Check your cookbook for other

defrosting tips.

Q. Should all foods be completely thawed before cooking?

A. Some foods should not be

completely thawed before cooking. For example, fish cooks so it is better to begin cooking while it is still slightly frozen.

Q. Can I open the door during

Questions and Answers

Q. I set my oven for the time called for in the recipe, but at the end of the time allowed, my food wasn’t done. What happened?

A. Since house power varies due

to time or location, many time cooking recipes give you a time range to prevent overcooking. Set the oven for minimum time, test the food for doneness, and cook your food a little longer, if necessary.

Q. I touched the number pads

and selected my power level. When I touched START, however, my oven didn’t come on. Why not?

A. The TIME COOK I & II pad

must be touched before setting the number pads or else your oven will not begin cooking.

Q. I want to cook on a power level other than High. What do I need to do?

A. To change the power level,

touch the POWER LEVEL pad, then touch desired number for new power level.

Cooking by Temperature

Internal temperature is the best test of doneness for many foods.

Use Temp Cook/Hold to cook a variety of foods to the desired finished food temperature. The Time Cook I &

IIsetting is

recommended for batters, doughs, frozen foods and foods which are difficult to cook precisely with the probe.

Temp Cook/Hold takes the guesswork out of cooking, because the oven automatically switches to “Hold” setting after reaching the preset food temperature and

maintains that temperature for up to

one hour or until you touch the

CLEAR/OFF pad.

Note: Oven automatically switches to “Hold” when preset food temperature is reached.

The Temperature Probe

The temperature probe is a food thermometer that gauges the

Cooking Tips

●

Use a lower power level; it will heat more evenly even though requiring more time.

●

Be sure frozen food has been completely defrosted before inserting probe. Probe may break off if used in frozen foods.

●

Cover foods loosely for moisture control and quick, even heating.

Automatic Roasting

Auto Roast uses the temperature probe to cook to the desired serving temperature. Unlike

Temp

Cook/Hold, which uses a single power level, Auto Roast uses up to 3 power settings which automatically switch during roasting, thus providing even, tender cooking results without

overcooking.

Just as in conventional roasting, only tender roasts should be Auto Roasted until specified internal temperatures are reached. Less tender roasts should be microwaved by time, according to the cookbook which comes with your oven.

Because of the varying rates, you may need to start reheating larger or more dense foods a few minutes ahead of time, then add other smaller or less dense foods. Alternately, if one of the foods you are heating seems undercooked but the others are heated satisfactorily, let the

underheated food continue

cooking. Heat or reheat different types of

food at High (10). To determine heating times, add times for all foods together. (See Heating Guide in cookbook. ) After stir or rearrange foods (do not reverse positions). Check foods (especially those on oven floor) after 3/4 of total time and remove any which are done. Continue cooking others.
