The convection microwave oven is the ultimate cooking team. This
state-of-the-art system brings together the best of both worlds. Enjoy the brown-
ing and crisping capabilities of convection plus the speed of microwave cooking.
Microwaving brings out the natural flavor of foods and keeps them moist and
juicy. Convection cooking adds the advantage of browning and crisping food.
Combination settings LOW MIX and HIGH MIX use convection heat to seal and
brown the outside while using microwave energy to make sure the interior is
cooked.
Roasting Techniques:
The HIGH MIX setting roasts perfectly. Preheating the oven is not necessary for roasting
meat and poultry. Place foods on the broiling trivet which holds meat juices. Never cover the
broiling trivet with aluminum foil. You don’t need a pan because the turntable will catch the
drippings.
• Shield thin or bony areas of roasts or breast, wing tips and legs of poultry to
prevent over browning.
• Should you wish to have gravy, place an oven-glass baking dish below the meat
on the broiling trivet to collect juices. When food is done, simply make gravy in
the baking dish and cook using HIGH power.
• Roast less-tender cuts of beef in heat-resistant and microwave oven-safe covered
casserole or in oven cooking bag set in baking dish. Covering helps tenderize
meat. You may also use the SLOW COOK setting.
• Use dual safe microwave/convection meat thermometer.
• Check doneness after minimum time using a meat thermometer. Add additional
time, if necessary.
• After cooking, cover roasts with “tent” of foil and let stand 5 to 10 minutes before
carving.
Broiling Techniques:
The oven broils both sides of the food simultaneously giving tender, juicy results.
Preheating is necessary so program the oven and touch START. During the preheat time,
prepare food by removing excess fat, slashing edges and seasoning, if desired. Place on broil-
ing trivet - NOT COVERED BY FOIL.
• Spray trivet and turntable with non-stick vegetable cooking spray for easy
cleanup.
• Using a preheated broiling rack can give a grilled appearance to steaks, hot dogs,
etc.
• Broil food in advance, if desired, then slice. Individual servings may be reheated
as needed by microwaving at MEDIUM (50%).
• Clean by turning broiling trivet over onto the turntable. Place 2 cups of water in
the turntable and heat for 2 minutes on HIGH power. Remove to finish cleaning.
Wipe out oven interior.
