OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Cont’d) TIMEDCOOKING TIMED COOKING gives the highest cooking power possible with your microwave oven. It is the recommended setting for cooking foods with high moisture or for cooking foods that need fast cooking to maintain their natural flavor and texture. Many foods need slower cooking (at less than HI power) in order to give you the best results. In addition to HI-POWER, there are nine multi-power settings.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Cont’d) USING MULTI-POWER LEVELS For foods requiring slower cooking, your oven also provides 10 different power settings. The Multi-Power feature lets you choose a lower power level over the automatic Hl(maximum oven power), SO that food can be cooked at suitable power level. The chart on the next page serves as a guideline for power level use.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Cont’d) MICROWAVE POWER LEVELS Your microwave oven is equipped with ten power levels (11 levels including 0) to give you maximum flexibility and control over cooking. When your cooking program is completed, a beep automatically sounds. The table below will give you some idea of which foods are prepared at each of the various power levels.
. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Cont’d) MULTI STAGE COOKING Multi stage cooking lets you program up to 3 different cooking stages in advance-each stage with a different power level and time settings. When START is pressed, the oven begins the first stage and automatically proceeds to the second and the third stages.

L OTHER HELPFUL INSTRUCTIONS For best results and more enjoyable cooking, please read your cooking guide thoroughly. For Best Results: When determining the time for a particular food, begin by using minimum time and checking occasionally for doneness. The microwave oven cooks so quickly, it is easy to overcook foods. 2.
GENERAL PROCEDURE FOR COOKING MEAT 1. No special techniques are required. The roast should be prepared and seasoned (if desired) as for any other conventional method. Meat should be thoroughly defrosted before cooking. 2. Place the meat on a microwave roasting rack or ovenproof plate and place on the turntable. 3.
6. Let stand for 5-1 0 minutes wrapped in foil after cooking before carving. The standing time is very important as it ‘finishes off’ the cooking time. 7. Ensure poultry is thoroughly cooked before eating. Whole poultry is cooked when the juices run clear from the inside thigh when it is pierced with a sharp knife.

PREHEATING This chart is a guide only. You may want to adjust cooking times according to personal preference. Measure the amount of food in order to determine the time needed to reheat. Arrange the food in a circular pattern for best resutts.
PRECAUTIONS 1. Do not attempt to tamper with, or make any adjustments or repairs to door, control panel, safety interlock switches or any other part of the oven. Repairs should be done by qualified service personnel only. 2. Be certain to place the front surface of the door three inches or more away from the countertop edge to avoid accidental tipping of the appliance in normal usage.
