@ When cooking pork follow our directions exactly and always cook the meat to at least 170°. This assures that, in the remote possibility that trichina may be present in the meat, it will be killed and meat will be safe to eat.

e Boilingeggs (in andout of shell)isnot recommendedfor microwave cooking. Pressure can build up inside egg yolk and may cause it to burst, resulting in injury,

a Foods with unbrokenouter

“skin”such as potatoes, hot

dogs or sausages, tomatoes, apples, chicken livers and other giblets, and eggs (seeabove) should be pierced to allow steam to escape during cooking.

@ ‘Boilable”cookingpouches

andtightlyclosedplasticbags

should be slit, pierced or vented as directed in Cookbook. If they are not, plastic could burst during or immediately after cooking, possibly resulting in injury. Also, plastic storage containers should beat least partially uncovered

because they form a tight seal, When cooking with containers tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove covering carefully and direct steam away from hands and face,

TheAuto Cook padmay be used to eliminate your need to fook up cooking time in the Cookbook, or guessing how long to

set cooking time. By actually sensing the steam which escapes as food microwaves,this featureautomatically adjusts the oven’s cooking timeto varioustypesand amounts of food.

Becausecooking containers must be covered, this feature is bestwith -foodswhich you wish to steam or to retain moisture. Foodswhich are best microwaveduncoveredor only lightly covered should be cooked using time or temperature settings.

After touching the Auto Cook pad, and pressing Start, you will see the word AUTO cmthe readout, which indicates that the sensor has been activated to sense steam from the food. To prevent the es= capeof steamfrom the oven,do not open the door while the word AU’TOis on the readout. If ‘door is opened, ERROR appears. Close door and touch STARTimmediately.

Automatic Cooking Control is a fully automatic electronic control systemthat lets your microwave oven do the cooking for you. The charts and recipes in this section are designed to help you makethe most of this truly newfeature.

recipes for microwave cooking. . .or just resorting to guesswork. This control method works on an entirely different basis--with a special electronic sensor that detects steam from cooking food. The oven “knows” how the food is cooking; so it can automatically set the correct cooking time and maintain the proper power Ieveifor different ‘types

and amounts of food. And it’s adjustable to suit your individual taste.

Simply touch two control pads—AUTOCOOK and the desired Code number–and then START. A

chart on the oven control panel gives a compiete

list of CC@%for frequently prepared foods. The readout display shows AUTO until steam is sensed

and then signals, anddisplays time counting down.

During AUTO, oven should not be opened, but when cwensignals, most foods should be turned, stirred, or rotated, Check the Autcmatic Cooking Chart far suggestions.

Mostvegetablesare cooked to a crisp “stateduring Auto Cook, just as in reguiar microwaving. Therefore,it is recommendedthat you let the vege-

tables stand for up to 5 minutes depending on size and density of pieces. This standing time also en-

Whatis wrong? A. If you prepared the sauce in the oven prior to

combining thesauce with potatoes,there mayhave

been too much remaining moisture in the oven,

Make sure you dry the oven completely before us-

ing Auto Cook since this function operates properly

by sensing steam in the oven. Also, starting Auto Cook with hot foods create~ steam in the oven too soon,and decreasesthefirst sensingcycle.

Are there any other foods which are best Time

Cooked?

& Bakery foods, candies, melted chocoiate or

foods when a dry or crisp surface is desirable, are

cooked best byTime Cook.

Q. Do fresh or frozen vegetables require water when using Auto Cook?

A.Yes.Add water as recommendedon chart to the vegetables and cover weil for even, corpplete cooking.

Wouid my piastic containers with very tight fit-

ting iids beappropriate for Automatic Cooking?

A. No,

most types of plastic storage dishes, butter tubs, etc.with tight ’fitting lids arenot recommended for microwaving. Also tight fitting plastic lids may

prevent adequate steam from escaping and food maynot cook properly during Automatic Cooking.

C!. 1tried to warm some chow mein noodles using Auto Cook. Why didn’t this work?

A. Foodmusthavesomemoisture inorder to create steam which helps the auto sensor function.

Extremely dry foods such as chow mein noodles, potato chips and other such foods do not have enough moisture.

(2,Whywasmyroastnotfullyrooked even though

thetemperature on the readout was correct and AutoRoastcompieted?

Whencooking with Auto Roast,the temperature

probe mustbe inserted properiy as fuiiy described

in the Cookbook.

(1. Are there any parthdar trivets that work better thanothers’?

A. Yes,

flat giasstrivets such as iids or dish covers give more even cooking resuits than piastic trivets. Also, ceramic ridge-bottomed roasting dishes work weli. Piastic trivets require meat to be turned over

more frequently because the grid design and iegs allow the bottom of the meat to stay cooler as it

cooks,thanglasstrivets do.

(2. Why doesn’t the roast car!tinue co~king during thestanding or holding thne?

The oven automaticallyreaches finished temper-

ature and then decreasesto a iower power ievel to prevent overcooking, Thus an even temperature is maintained.

To TypesofFoodsTogether

When heating several different types of food together, foods which should be served hot must

be placed on the ovenshelf, while foods which are only warmed should beplacedon the floor. This

is because microwave energy enters the oven from the top only. Also, it is

that

energy atdifferent rates.Ratescan

beaffected by the sizeof the food,

and its starting temperature.

Because of the varying rates you mayneedto start reheatingalarge

or densefood a few minutesahead of time, then add other smaller or less dense foods. Alternately, if one of the several foods you are

heating seems under cooked but the others are heated satisfactorily, let the undw’heated food continue cooking,
