The customer should havethe wall receptacle and

circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make

Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is en­countered, it is the personalresponsibilityandobli­gation of the customer to have it replaced with a

RARY CONNECTIONmay be made to a properly
groundedtwo-prong wall receptacleby the useof a
UL listed adapter which is available at most local
hardware stores (Fig. 2). The larger slot in the
adapter must be aligned with the larger slot in the
wall receptacle to provide proper polarity in the
connectionof the powercord.

Caution:Attaching the adapter ground terminal to
the wail receptacle cover screw does not ground
the appliance unlessthe cover screw is metal,and
not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded
through the house wiring. The customer should
havethe circuit checkedbyaqualifiedelectricianto

makesurethe receptacleisproperlygrounded.

When disconnecting the power cord from the
adapter,always hold the adapter with one hand. If
this is not done,the adapterground terminalis very

likely to break with repeated use. Should this hap­pen, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper

ground hasagainbeenestablished.

Cooking utensils may become hot because of

heattransferred from the heatedfood. This is espe­cially true if plastic wrap has been covering the top

AutomaticRoasting”

Auto Roast usesthe temperatureprobe to cook to
thedesired servingtemperature.UnlikeTempCook,
which uses a single power level, Auto Roast uses
up to 3 power settings which automatically switch
during roasting,thus providingeventender cooking
resultswithout overcooking.

IIPreparingRoastsforAutoRoasting

Placetender beef roasts on trivet
in microwave safe dish. Insert
probe from front horizontally into
csnter meaty area not touching

boneor fat.Coverwith waxpaper.

Poultry, pork or ham roasts need
no trivet. Add %cupwater to roast
dish, cover with plastic wrap. (For
cooking bag method, see cook­book.) Insert probe into center

Questions

andAnswers

Q. Are there any particular trivets

that work better than others?

A. Yes, flat glass trivets such as
lids or dish covers give more even
cooking resultsthan plastictrivets.

Also,ceramicridge-bottomedroast-

ingdisheswork well. Plastictrivets
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,than glasstrivets do.

Q. Is it necessaryto always cover
foods during Auto Roast?

A. No, but a loose covering helps
prevent spattering and hold mois­ture in food.

Q. Why was my roast not fully
cooked eventhough the tempera­ture on the readout was correct
and Auto Roastc~mpleted?

A. Whencooking with Auto Roast,

the temperature probe must be

insertedproperly asfully described

inthe Cookbook,Afterturning meat
over or rotating, the probe should
be checked to makesure it hasn’t
slipped or changed position,

9

Q. Last time I used Auto Roast

I removed the roast from the oven
to turn it over. When I replaced
roast in ovenand reconnected the

meat probe, a lower temperature
appeared.Why?

A. The oven and roast may have
cooled to below the temperature
when you removed it, or probe

may havebeen repositioned. Con­tinue roasting and numbers will
soon count upwardagain.

Microwaving‘Tips

Make sure all utensils used in

o

your microwave oven are labeled .
“suitable for microwaving”. Check

your Cookbook for specific test to

determine“microwave-safe” uten­sils.

.

Paper towels, wax paper, and

plastic wrap can be usedto cover
dishes in order to retain moisture
andpreventspattering.

. Most microwavedfoods require
stirring, rotating, or rearranging.
Check your Cookbook for specific

instructions for the food you are
microwaving,

6 Some foods such as unshelled
eggs and hot dogs must be
pricked to allow steam to escape
during cooking.

Questions

aridAnswers

Q. Iset my ovenfor the time called

for in the recipe but at the end of
the time allowed, my dish wasn’t
done. Whathappened?

A, Since house power varies due
to time or location, many Time
Cook recipesgive you atime range

to prevent overcooking. Set the
oven for minimum time, test the
food for doneness, and cook your
disha little longer, ifnecessary.

Q. I want to cook my dish on a
PowerLevelotherthanHIGH,what

do I needto do?

A. To change the Power Level,
touch the POWERLEVELpadafter
entering desired cooking time,

Enterthe desired number andthen
touch START.

Q. Can I interrupt my Time Cook
function to checkthefood?

A, Yes.To resumecooking, simply
close the door and touch START.
NOTE: Microwave power will not
come on until you are ready. You
must touch STARTfor cooking to
begin.

HowtoTempCook

For many foods, internal temperature is the best
testof doneness.
Roasts or poultry are cooked to perfection when

temperature cooking. Heating or reheating foods

accurately to a serving temperature you desire is
simpleand easy.

TEMP COOK takes the guesswork out of cooking
becausethe oven shuts off auto~atically when the

food is done.

~~~

‘Temperature Probe

The temperature probe is a food thermometerthat

gauges the internal temperature of your food; it
must be used when using TEMP COOK or AUTO
ROAST.To utilizeyour temperatureprobe properly,
follow the directions for use and insertion in this
book in the section entitled “Automatic Roasting”.
