Q. Myscallopedpotatoeswere notcormpleteiycookedwhenI removedthedishafterAuto cook. what is wrong?
A. If you prepared the sauce in the ovenprior to combining the sauce with potatoes, there-mayhavebeen too much remaining moisture in the oven. Make sure youdry the ovencompletely beforeusing Auto Cook since this function operates properly by sensing steamin the oven. Also, starting Auto Cook with hot foodscreates steam in the oventoo soon, and decreases the first sensing icycle.

they might damage it. After preparing meat and placing it
on the roasting pan rack, follow these steps for proper probe placement.
S@? 1:Lay the probe on the outside of the meat along thetop or side and mark with your finger where the edge ofthe meat comes to on the probe. Point should rest in the center of the thickest meaty part of the roast.
