Automatic Roasting

AUTO ROAST uses the
temperature probe to cook to

the desired serving temperature.
Unlike 

 COOK/HOLD,

which uses a single power level,
AUTO ROAST uses up to 3 power
settings which automatically
switch during roasting, thus
providing even, tender cooking
results without overcooking.

Just as in conventional roasting,
only tender roasts should be Auto
Roasted. Less tender roasts should
be microwaved by time, according
to the cookbook which comes with
your oven.

Preparing 

 and

Poultry for Auto Roasting

Place beef roasts and poultry on
trivet in microwave-safe dish. Pork
and ham roasts do not require a

trivet. Make sure probe handle
does not touch the food, top, or
sides of the oven.

Place beef roasts (bone-in cuts) on
trivet in microwave-safe dish with
the eye facing up and down. Insert

probe into the center of the eye
from the side of the roast not
touching bone or fat. Cover tightly
with plastic wrap.

Place beef roasts (boneless cuts) on
trivet in microwave-safe dish with
the eye facing left and right. Insert

probe into the center of the eye from
the side of the roast not touching fat.
Cover tightly with plastic wrap.

Place whole poultry on trivet in
microwave-safe dish. Insert probe
into meatiest area of inner thigh
from below end and parallel to leg.

Cover tightly with plastic wrap.

Ham and pork roasts need no
trivet. Add 1/2 cup water to
microwave-safe roast dish. Insert

probe from the side into the ham
and cover with wax paper. Insert
probe from the side into pork roast
and cover tightly with plastic wrap.

Place food in oven and insert cable
end of probe firmly into receptacle
in top center of oven.
