HELPFUL HINTS FOR COMBINATION
COOKING
•
Meats may be roasted directly on the Convection
Rack. Use Drip Pan to catch grease.
•
Less tender cuts of beef can be roasted and
tenderized using oven cooking bags.
•
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 cooking, some cooking
utensils may cause arcing when they come in contact
with the oven walls or metal Convection Rack. 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 Convection Rack. If arcing occurs with other
cooking utensils, stop using them for combination
cooking.
AUTO CONVECTION COOKING
You can automatically cook a wide selection of foods
just by touching one of the 6 Auto Convection pads:
Meat, Poultry, Fish, Baked Goods, Snack Foods,
Other Foods.
See the "Auto Convection Chart" section and follow

You can select how done you would like your meats
cooked (Rare, Med-Rare, Medium, Med-Well, Well) by
touching the TEMP/POWER/DONENESS pads. The
settings will cook to Medium if you do not adjust the
doneness.
You may adjust the recommended time and
