your Convection microwave Oven can cook any
food perfectly because of the number of ways it can
cook: microwave only, automatic mix, convection
only or broil. The cookbook that comes with your
oven has excellent instructions, guidelines, hints,
charts and recipes to help you get the best use of
your oven. Consult it often until you are familiar
with it. This Use & Care Guide tells you how to
program the oven.
The oven cannot be used without the turntable
in place. never restrict the movement of the turn-
table.
coNvectIoN cookINg:
1. when preheating, the turntable can be left in
or removed. when using the high rack for 2
shelf baking in a preheated oven, it is easier to
remove the turntable for preheat.
Place high rack on turntable along with foods.
when preheat is over, open oven door and
quickly place turntable, high rack and foods to
be baked inside.
2. Do not cover turntable, low rack or high rack
with aluminum foil. It interferes with air flow that
cooks food.
3. round pizza pans are excellent cooking utensils
for many convection-only items. Choose pans
that do not have extended handles.
4. Using a preheated low rack can give a grilled
appearance to steaks, hot dogs etc.
autoMatIc MIX cookINg:
1. meats are best when roasted directly on the
low rack. A dish can be placed below the meat
if gravy is to be made from the drippings.
2. less tender cuts of meat can be roasted and
tenderized using oven cooking bags.
3. when baking, check for doneness after time
has elapsed. If not completely done, let stand
in oven a few minutes to complete cooking.
Note:
During mix baking some metal baking utensils may
cause arcing when they come in contact with the
turntable, oven walls or accessory racks. Arcing
is a discharge of electricity that occurs when
microwaves come in contact with metal.
If arcing occurs, place a heat resistant dish (Pyrex®
pie plate, glass pizza dish or dinner plate) between
the pan and the turntable or rack. If arcing occurs
with other metal baking utensils, discontinue their
use for mix cooking.
