Helpful hints for combination
cooking:
l Meats may be roasted directly on the
Bi-Level Metal Rack or in a shallow
roasting pan placed on the rack. When
using the Bi-Level Metal Rack, please
check your cookbook for information on
proper use.
l Less tender cuts of beef can be roasted
and tenderized using oven cooking bags.
l When baking, check for doneness after
cooking time is up. If not completely done,
let stand in oven for a few minutes to
complete cooking.
NOTE: During combination baking, some
bakeware may cause arcing when it comes
in contact with the oven walls or metal
accessory racks. Arcing is a discharge of
electricity that occurs when microwaves
come in contact with metal. If arcing occurs,
place a heatproof dish between the pan and
the Bi-Level Metal Rack. If arcing occurs
with other bakeware, stop using them for
combination cooking.
Combination microwave/convection
Sometimes combination microwave-convec-
tion cooking is suggested to get the proper
cooking results. It shortens the cooking time
for foods that normally need a long time to
cook. This cooking process also leaves
meats juicy on the inside and crispy on the
outside. In combination cooking, the convec-
tion heat and microwave energy alternate
automatically. Your oven has two pre-
programmed settings that make it easy to
cook with both convection heat and micro-
wave energy automatically.
