5.SETTING "COOK BY WEIGHT"
This feature is for roasting meats in the
microwave. Its pre-set times and power
levels give better results than microwaving
at one power only, and it is easier to
microwave meat with this setting than with
cookbook instructions because you do not
have to calculate "minutes per pound" cook-
ing times. As soon as you enter the code
(which tells the oven the type of meat) and
the weight, the oven calculates
cooking time.
Meat must be defrosted and at refrigerated
temperature to correspond with the pre-set
times in this code.
Meat-roast weights in about the 3 to 5
pound range microwave best, COOK BY
WEIGHT code allows a setting lower than 3
lb. but no higher than 5 lb. Depending on
code , two beeps signal an error in setting a
too-high weight.
"Cook by Weight" programs the oven to stop
after partial cooking, so meat won't overcook
on one side. Turn meat over, then touch
START pad to continue cooking.
• Touch COOK BY WEIGHT pad. Word
prompt shows ENTER CODE on display.
• Select desired code from 1 through 3. Door
frame (open the door to review ) and chart
at right describe types of food for each code.
• Enter the one-digit code by touching the
correct number pad.
• Check weight of meat . Weight must be in
pounds and ounces. If label gives weight in
pounds only, change the fraction of a pound
to ounces using chart on page 11.
• Enter weight. Word prompt ENTER shows in
display and 0's show where LB and OZ
should be entered. LB flashes until you enter
pound(s) by touching correct number pad.
When pound(s) has been entered, LB will
stop flashing and OZ will flash. As soon as
all these digits have been set, display will
immediately show cook time. Ounce weights
less than 10 must be preceded by a 0. As
soon as three digits are set, display immedi-
ately shows cook time.
• Touch START/STOP to start oven, CODE
flashes in display as time counts down.
Interior light goes on and fan sound is
heard. Oven beeps once after about 1/4
time. If necessary, check thin edges of meat
and poultry for shielding.
• After partial cooking, oven beeps twice and
stops. Interior light goes off but time remains
on the display. Stop is to prevent meat's
overcooking on one side before turning over.
After turning meat over, touch START pad to
resume the time on display and
finish cooking.
• After total cooking time, 4 long beeps sound
and END appears in display. Touch RESET
or open oven door to clear END before start-
ing another cooking function. Let roast stand
few minutes before carving.
When oven switches power levels, you may
observe change in lighting intensity and/or
change in blower sound. This is normal.
