FOR THE BEST COOKING RESULTS
• Always cook food for the shortest cooking time recommended. Check to see how the food is cooking. If
needed, touch Add 30 Sac while the oven is operating, or after the cooking cycle is over (see the "Add
30 Sec" section).
• Stir, turn over, or rearrange the food being cooked about halfway through the cooking time for all recipes.
This will help ensure that the food is evenly cooked.
• If you do not have a cover for a dish, use wax paper, or microwave-approved paper towels or plastic
wrap. Remember to turn back a corner of the plastic wrap to vent steam during cooking.
• The metal shelf is used for cooking certain items and should be removed from the microwave oven when not
needed. Do not store metal shelf in the microwave oven.
COOKWARE GUIDE
Microwave Cooking
Most heat-reslstant, non-metalllc cookware is safe for use in your microwave oven. However, to test cookware before
using, follow these steps:
1. Place the empty cookware in the microwave oven.
2. Measure 1 cup (250mJ) of water in a glass measuring cup and place it in the oven beside the cookware.
3. Microwave on 100% power for 1 minute. If the dish is warm, it should not be used for microwave cooking.
Convection Cooking
• Metal Pans are recommended for aii types of baked products, but especially where browning or crusting is important.
• Dark or dull finish metal pans are best for breads and pies because they absorb heat and produce a crisper crust.
, Shiny aluminum pans are better for cakes, cookies, or muffins because these pans reflect heat and help produce a
light, tender crust.
• Glass or glass-ceramic casserole or baking dishes are best suited for egg and cheese recipes due to the cleanability
of glass.
Combination Cooking
Glass or glass-ceramic baking containers are recommended. Be sure not to use items with metal trim as it may cause !
@
arcing (sparking) with oven wall or oven shelf, damaging the cool<ware, the shelf or the oven. I
* Heat-resisant plastic microwave cookware (safe to 450 °F) may be used, but is not recommended for foods that require_
crusting or all-around browning, because plastic is a poor conductor of heat.
