Automatic Cooking Control is a fully automatic
electronic control systemthat lets your microwave
oven do the cooking for you. The charts and
recipes in this section are designed to help you
makethe most of this truly newfeature.
Standard
cooking techniques require setting the
oven for a specified cooking
time or a selectedfin-
ished temperature. And that means looking up
recipes in a
cookbook. . trying to convert old
recipes for microwave cooking. . .or just resorting
to guesswork. This control method works on an
entirely different basis--with a special electronic
sensor that detects steam from cooking food. The
oven “knows” how the food is cooking; so it can
automatically set the correct cooking time and
maintain the proper power Ieveifor different ‘types
and amounts of food. And it’s adjustable to suit
your individual taste.
Simply touch two control pads—AUTOCOOK and
the desired Code number–and then START. A
chart on the oven control panel gives a compiete
list of CC@%for frequently prepared foods. The
readout display shows AUTO until steam is sensed
and then signals, and displays time counting down.
During AUTO, oven should not be opened, but
when cwen signals, most foods should be turned,
stirred, or rotated, Check the Autcmatic Cooking
Chart far suggestions.
Appropriate containers and coverings help assure
good cooking results. Containers should match in
sizeto the sizeof the food being cooked. Coverings
such as plastic wrap secured on all sides, the lid
that came with the container, or microwave-safe
plastic domesare ideal. Forexamplesof containers
and coverings,seepage12and the following recipe
section of this book.
With PreferenceControl, you can adjust the Auto-
matic Cooking f%atur~to yuur individual taste by
adding either”1” or “9” after Code number, If after
trying the suggested Code, yOIJwould prefer less
cooking time, simply add the number “l” after the
Code and the oven automatically lessensthe cook-
ing time by 20%,If you wish morecooking time,add
“9” after the Codeto increasecooking time by
2CW0.
Automatic Roasting uses the te~perature probe
rather than the electronic sensor to cook meats
evenly to the desireddegreeof doneness.The oven
continually monitors the food’s internal tempera-
ture, Unlike ordinary Temperature Cooking, the
oven changes power levels two or three times
depending on the degree of donenessduring cook-
