The Skillette feature uses the Skillette pan to brown, crisp, and
pan-fry foods in the microwave oven. The Skillette pan reaches
its optimal cooking temperature in approximately 3 minutes. Use
the pan as quickly as possible after it is heated for best results.
While microwaves heat food from above, they also heat the
Skillette pan very quickly from below to brown and crisp the food.
• Microwave oven cavity and door will become very hot during
grill element use. The use of oven mitts is recommended.
The Skillette pan will become very hot. Use the handle to
grasp and remove the pan from the microwave oven. Do not
place hot Skillette pan directly on heat-sensitive surfaces.
Damage may occur.
• Use detachable handle when handling hot Skillette pan.
• Do not use plastic utensils on the pan, as it becomes very hot
quickly and could melt the utensils.
• Do not use metal utensils, as they can scratch the pan.
• Do not use the pan in any other microwave oven or in a
standard thermal oven.
• Do not place the pan on the rectangular cooking rack or
circular grill rack. Always use the turntable as a support for
the pan.
• For best results, coat Skillette pan lightly with cooking oil to
make removing food and cleaning easier.

use in a recipe. Ice cream will be softened enough to make
scooping easier. Melt items such as butter, chocolate and
marshmallows with minimal spatter. Use the following chart as a
