The following hints apply to the above two
categories.
• Roasts weighing less than 1.0 kg and greater than
2.5 kg should be cooked by manual MICRO POWER.
• Select roasts that are uniform in shape for best
results. If roast is uneven, tie with string or shield
thin portions once countdown time appears in the
Display Window.
• Less tender cuts of meat e.g. chuck steak should
not
be cooked by Sensor cook. Using a lower
manual MICRO POWER setting with the addition of
extra cooking time will tenderise the meat.
• Whole roasting pieces should be totally thawed
before cooking.
• Meats may be marinated, seasoned or stuffed
before cooking.
• Do not sprinkle roasts with flour, since it will not dry
and crisp as in a conventional oven.
• Place roast fat side down on a microwave rack set
into a dish.
• Cover securely with plastic wrap.
• Once countdown time appears in the Display
Window, remove the plastic wrap and turn,
rearrange or shield roast, if required.

time after cooking. This makes carving easier and
ensures that the heating is even throughout.
