3.9 - SIMULTANEOUS COOKING ON 2 LEVELS
By using the spacer wire rack at medium height with the microwave-only function, you can defrost, reheat and
cook foods at the same time, even different dishes on two levels. The special double-microwave-emission
system makes possible, in fact, a perfect distribution of energy.
When you wish to cook two food dishes at the same time, all you have to do is keep these basic rules in mind:
1) The cooking times for food dishes cooked at the same time are different from those for the cooking of single
dishes. So always consult the reference table on page 39.
2) Be careful to ALWAYS place on the MEDIUM WIRE RACK t that food which requires less cookig time: it will
thus be easier to remove the upper pan.
Take the grill out and finish cooking the food underneath.
3) Pay strict attention to the indications and recommendations in the tables. In particular, always check to be sure that the
food being reheated is very hot before removing it from the oven.
