Crisp or Sizzle
The Pan Heat feature, combined with Crisp or Sizzle features,
uses the Crisper Pan to brown, crisp, and pan-fry foods in the
microwave oven. Pan Heat preheats the pan to its optimal
temperature in approximately 3 minutes.
While microwaves heat food from above, they also heat the pan
very quickly from below to brown and crisp the food.
IMPORTANT: Pan Heat must be used before the other Crisp or
Sizzle features are used.
■ Use the handle to grasp and remove the Crisper Pan from the
oven. Do not place the hot Crisper Pan directly on heat-
sensitive surfaces. Damage may occur.
■ Do not use plastic utensils on the pan, as it becomes very hot
quickly and could melt the utensils.
■ Do not use metal utensils, as they can scratch the pan.
■ Do not use the pan in any other microwave oven or in a
thermal oven.
■ Always use the turntable as a support for the pan. Do not
place the pan on the cooking rack.
■ For best results, coat the pan lightly with cooking oil to make
removing food and cleaning easier.
To Use Pan Heat:
1. Place empty Crisper Pan on the turntable and close the door.
2. Touch PAN HEAT once.
Pan will preheat for 3 minutes.
