from Hotpoint. By joining the familiarityof conventional cooking with the speed and convenience of
microwavecooking,yourCombination Rangegives
you the versatilityof combinationcooking. [n adcfi-
tion, it offers easy cleaningof the totalrangeand an
automaticself-cleaningoven.
Knowing how to use and care for your appliance
properly will save you time and energy, increase
your efficiency, and give you more flexibility in your
cooking style. We have kept features from your former ra~ge-and added new ones to make cooking a
more cr;ative experience.
Your Combination Range has many features you
may not have used before. The best way to become
familiar with them is to read this Useand Care Book
thoroughly. You will learn how to care for your
Combination Range as well as how to cook conven-
tionally, cook with microwave energy, or combine
both for a unique cooking function.
Your Use and Care Book will show with detailed
step-by-step information and illustrations how to
use the cooking and cleaning features. To help you
better understand your new ,range, “How To” recipesare illustrated throughout the book.
There are several ways to create a variety of dishes
and meals with your Combination Range.’
—
.—
@)~ange Top ~~oking–yoursurface units and con-
trols give you a choice of heat settings for cooking on top of your range. Surface cooking gives
you the flexibility of frying, canning, and pressure
cooking.
@-~Microwave Cooking—Food is cooked with micro-
Q&
wave energy faster than can be done conven-
tionally. Microwave energy alone can be used for
quickheating,quickdefrosting,and quick
cooking.
f~~Baking—Food placed inside the oven is cooked
by hot, dry air. Pastries, including cookies and
muffins, cook best with baking because crisp and
crusty surfaces are desirable.
fi.)Cmnbination Baking–Regularbakingheat is
used while microwave energy speeds up cooking
time and retains the food’s moisture.
@Roasting–A low and steady temperaturecooks
meat or po~ltry tenderly and accurately.
@Combination Roasting–Recommended cooking
techniquescombinemicrowaveenergywith
regular roasting heat for some or all of the roasting time. Some cooking time is saved, and the
meat’snatural juicinessand tendernessare
preserved.
@Broi!ing–Food is quick-cooked by intense radiant
heat from the upper unit of the oven. This method
produces foods that are brown on the outside but
moist and juicy on the inside, and usually require
turning over.
@CombinationBroiling–Microwavingis used
along with broiling. This function allows food to
be cooked rapidly with broiled appearance. It efficiently cooks frozen steaks, chops or poultry
which often brown before the center is done.
With your Combination Range, you may sti!l use
your favorite recipes. Usually the only adjustments
are in setti~g your oven. A Cooking and Adapting
Chart, showing adjustments in oven temperatures,
times, and power levels, is in the front of each food
chapter of the Cookbook. General guidelines for
adapting are in a specific section in the front of the
Cookbook.
To keep your Combination Range performing efficiently, it is important for you ta clean and care for
it regularly, and this book will show you how. Continued use of your self-cleaning feature, as well as
frequent washing of your other range parts, will
help your Combination Range to
continue giving
youthe best performance possible.

Use proper power level as recommended and
DO N“OT’OVERCOOK.
Do not operate the oven while empty. If by accident the oven should run empty a minute or two,
no harm is done. However, try to avoid operating
the oven empty at all times—saves energy and
also ensures good long term life of oven.
cooking
Use cooking utensils of medium weight aluminum, tight-fitting covers, and flat bottoms which
completely cover the heated portion of the sur-
face unit.
Cook fresh vegetables with a minimum amount
of water in a covered pan.
“Keep an eye”
on foods when bringing them
quickly to cooking temperatures at HIGH heat.
When food reaches cooking temperature,re-
duce heat immediately to lowest setting that will
keep it cooking.
Use residual heat with surface cooking when-
(
ever possible. For example, when cooking eggs
in the shell bring water to boil, then turn to OFF

c. oven
Preheat the oven only when necessary. Most
foods will cook satisfactorily without preheating.
If you find preheating is necessary, keep an eye
on the indicator light, and put food in the oven
promptly after the light goes out.
Always turn oven OFF before removing food.

During baking, avoid frequent door openings.

desserts will cook together with a main-dish casserole, meat ioaf, chickenor roast. Choose

Use residual heat in oven whenever possible to
finish cooking casseroles, oven meals, etc. Also
add rolls or precooked desserts to warm oven,
using residual heat to warm them.

C!.May I can foods and preserves
on my surface units?
A. Yes, but only use containers designedfor canningpurposes.
Check the manufacturer’s instructions and recipes for preserving
foods. Be sure canner is fiat-bot-
tomed and fits over the center of
your Calrodm unit. Since canning
generates large amounts of steam,
be carefui to prevent burns from
steam orheat. Canningshould
orIly be done on surface units.

After selecting a recipe from the
Cookbook or revising your own ac-
cording to Cookbook instructions,
you must set all of the knobs for
both conventional baking and mi-

Be sure meat is cooked to your

taken into consideration when
determining your cooking time.
Always use a roasting pan that

To slow down surface browning
on turkeys, you can use a foil

meats not turning out as brown as
they should?
A. Preheat the broil unit for ten

cook for the longest period of time
indicated in your Cookbook.
Q. Can I broil bakery goods and

A. Yes. Position the Oven Shelf on

seconds. For English muffins, split
the muffin and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on one side only.

and broil the second side (for %“
slice 4-5 minutes, for 1
9-11 minutes).
For a %-1” slice of
?42” slice
ham, you need only to turn it once.
For larger pieces of meat, check
your Cookbook for instructions.
Step 6: When the ham slice is
done, turn off the oven and serve
immediately.
Q. Should I salt the meat before
broiling?
A. No. Salt draws out the juices
which wouldbe evaporatedin
broiling. Always salt after broiling.
Always turn with tongs because
piercing meat with a fork allows
the juices to escape. As poultry
and fish broil, brush each side often with butter.
Q. When broiling, is it necessary
to always use a rack in the pan?
A. Yes. Using the rack suspends
the meat over the pan. As the meat
cooks, the juices fall into the pan
thus keeping meat dryer. Juices
which are protected by the rack
stay cooler, thus preventing excessive spatter.

Just as in conventional
broiling, a rack is needed to keep
the drippings cool and away from
the meat being cooked. The best
rack to use is packed with your
range. If you desire to use another
kind of rack, chrome or a glass
rack conditioned for high-intensity
heat is recommended.
Q. Since glass containers are recommended f o r Co mbinatio n
Roasting and many other foods,
should I consider glass containers
for Combination Elroi]ing?
