MULTI-STAGE COOKING
I IIIIII I
Multi-Stage cooking allows you_to set the oven to cook in three stages at different power levels for a specific time or
temperature. When you combine multi-stage cooking with Auto Defrost, you can set the cooking process for four stages.
You set all stages before starting to cook and after you start the oven, each stage follows automatically.
To combine Auto Defrost with multi-stage cooking, first set the Auto Defrost (Pages 24-25 ). Then follow the
instructions below for multi-stage cooking.
In the instructions for three-stage cooking below, we are using rice as an example. Place 1 cup rice and 2-1/2 cups
hot water in a 2-quart casserole dish. First stage: 4 rain. at "HI" power. Second stage: 10 min. at "6" Power.
Third stage: 5 min. at "5" Power. The following steps tell you how to set the three stages. When the oven is finished with
all three levels, the word "End" will display and two short beeps and one long beep will sound. The oven will shut off
automatically. Let therice stand for 10 minutes.
