GETTING ACQUAINTED
Before using your Presto microwave bacon cooker, please read
the following information.
This bacon cooker was specially designed to work in most
microwave ovens. There are however a few ultra-compact
models, with cavity sizes less than 6 inches tall by 10 inches
wide, in which it will not fit.
If your microwave oven has a removable tray or turntable,
be sure the tray or turntable is in place whenever you use
your bacon cooker.
Before initial use and after each subsequent use, wash the racks
and tray in hot, sudsy water, rinse and dry thoroughly, or wash
in the dishwasher on the rack farthest away from the heating
element. This is usually the top rack.

the drainage openings are facing the open handles. Drape
the desired number of bacon slices over the rack, Fig. B.
Three to five slices will fit on each rack depending on the
width of the bacon slices.
For best cooking results, do
not overlap the bacon slices.
Note: Some bacon stretches
easily, and as you place it
on the racks, it may touch
the bottom of the drip tray.
This is okay, since the bacon
will shrink up as it cooks.
3. While the other rack is still outside the drip tray , load it with
bacon. Once the rack is loaded, carefully place it in the drip
tray next to the other rack.
4. Cover bacon with one piece of paper toweling to reduce
spattering. Note: Paper toweling should be free of recycled
paper to be safe for microwave use.
5. Place the bacon cooker in the center of your microwave oven
and set microwave timer, allowing at least 40 seconds per
slice of bacon being cooked. Begin cooking. Cooking time
will vary from 40 to 90 seconds per slice, depending on the
individual microwave and the type, thickness and fat content
of the bacon. Remain near microwave oven during cooking.
6. When the bacon is done, carefully remove the bacon cooker
from the microwave oven using the handles surrounding the
bacon cooker. Use caution when handling the bacon
cooker when it contains hot drippings.
7. Carefully remove the paper
toweling. Remove bacon
by sliding a knife up under
the bacon through the slot
at the top of the rack and
lift upward, Fig. C. Flip the
bacon over onto a plate
covered with paper
toweling and flatten out.
For best results, remove bacon from racks immediately after
cooking.

HOW TO USE
Follow these easy steps:
1. Assemble racks. Take two of the slotted panels, and with
the rectangular sockets facing each other, insert the small
sockets into the larger sockets, Fig. A, to form a tent shaped
rack. Do the same with the other two panels. Set one
assembled rack aside on one piece of paper toweling.
2. Place the other assembled rack upright in the drip tray so
CLEANING AND STORAGE
Allow drippings to cool slightly and then pour them from any
of the four corners of the tray for disposal. Separate racks and
wash panels and tray in hot, soapy water or wash in the
dishwasher on the rack farthest away from the heating element.
This is usually the top rack. Do not use abrasive cleaners on the
bacon cooker.
Stack the slotted panels in the drip tray for compact storage.
