Using Your Microwave Oven
Using EASY SIMMER
Your microwave oven lets you simmer soups,
casseroles, stews, and other liquid foods. All you
do is set a simmer time and your oven will bring
your food to a boil and then simmer it for the time
you specify.
NOTES:
• You cannot change the cook power or doneness
for EASY SIMMER.
1. Place the food in the oven and shut the door.
2. Touch EASY SIMMER.
3. Touch Number pads to enter the simmer time.

4. Touch START.
The oven will bring the food to a boil.
The food will then simmer for the time you set.
When simmering foods like pasta
Use a container that can hold enough water to cover
the food completely when cooking, such as a 3-
quart (12-cup [3 L]) casserole with a lid. When cook-
ing pasta or noodles, add 1 tbsp (14.8 mL) oil to the
water before boiling. Use the following method.

• This function uses the sensor. The sensor needs 2
minutes, 30 seconds to warm up after the oven is
connected to power or after a power failure. If you start
EASY SIMMER during the warm-up, microwave energy
will not be turned on until the sensor is warm.
• When cooking vegetables, increase amount of water
to
1
⁄4 to
1
⁄2 cup (63 - 125 mL).
• Cover dish with a hard lid, i.e., the lid that comes with
the dish or a dinner plate. Do not use plastic wrap.
