Cooking with your microwave
oven
Although a new rating method* rates this oven at
900 watts, you may use a reliable cookbook and
recipes developed for “higher” wattage
(700-800
watt) microwave ovens.
To get the best cooking results:
l
ALWAYS cook food for the minimum recom-
mended cooking time. If necessary, add time in
one or two minute periods, then check for
doneness to avoid overcooking the food.
l
Stir, turn over or rearrange the food being cooked
about halfway through the cooking time for most
even doneness with all recipes.
l
If a glass cover is not available, use wax paper,
paper towels or microwave-approved plastic wrap.
Turn back a corner to vent steam during cooking.
‘IEC-705 Test Procedure. The IEC-705 Test Procedure is an
internationally recognized method of rating microwave
wattage output and does not represent an actual change to
output power or cookIng performance.
Cooking at high cook power
Follow these steps to cook at high power:
1. Put food in the oven and close the door.
2. Touch Number Pads for the cooking time you
want. The Display will show the numbers you
touched in the order you touched them. The
example shows
1
minute, 30 seconds.
NOTE: If programming more than one cycle, you
must touch POWER LEVEL twice for
100%
Cook
Power. If programming only one cycle, you do not
need to touch POWER LEVEL at all.
3. Touch START. The oven will automatically cook
at high Cook Power. The COOK Indicator will
come on to show that the oven is cooking. The
Display counts down the time to show how much
time is left in the cycle. When the cooking time
ends, a long tone will sound. “END” will flash on
the Display. Touch STOP/CLEAR or open the
oven door. The Display will then show the time
of day.
