Available Cooking Options
Microwave Cooking
Your oven uses microwave energy to cook by a set time or weight, or automatically by sensor.
Sensor microwave works by detecting the increasing humidity released during cooking. The
oven automatically adjusts the cooking time to various types and amounts of food.
Cooking Method
Microwave energy
is distributed evenly
throughout the oven
for thorough, fast
cooking of food.
Convection Baking and Convection Roasting
During baking or roasting, a heating element is used to raise the temperature of the air inside
circulates this heated air throughout the oven, over and around the food, producing golden
brown exteriors and rich moist interiors. This circulation of heated air is called convection.
Because the heated air is kept constantly moving, not permitting a layer of cooler air to
develop around the food, some foods cook faster than in regular oven cooking.

Hot air circulates
around food to
produce browned
exteriors and seal
