MANUAL COOKING

USING ONE TOUCH START

This is a time saving pad that will automatically start cooking 2 seconds after selected. Numeric key 1 to 9 can be touched for a 1 minute to minutes automatic start cooking feature.

• Suppose you want to cook 3 minutes at 100% power

USING ADD 30 SEC.

This is a time-saving pad. It is a simplified feature that lets you quickly set and start microwave cooking at 100% power.

• Suppose you want to set and start microwave cooking at 100% for 30 SEC.

SETTING TIMED COOKING WITH POWER LEVEL

This feature lets you program a specific cook time and power. For best results, there are 11 power level settings in addition to HIGH (100%) power. Refer to the "Microwave Power Levels" table.

• Suppose you want to cook for five minutes at 70% power.

SETTING TWO-STAGE COOKING

For best results, some recipes call for different power levels during a cook cycle. You can program your oven for two power level stages during the cooking cycle.

• To set a 2-stage cook cycle. The first stage is a 2 minutes cook time at 30% cook power then a 4 minutes cook time at 70% cook power.

When the first stage finishes, the oven will beep. "FIRST STAGE DONE" will show on the display. The second stage starts automatically.

AUTO COOKING

USING AUTO DEFROST

Three defrost sequences are preset in the oven. The auto defrost feature provides you with the best defrosting method for frozen foods. The cooking guide will show you which defrost sequence is recommended for the food you are defrosting.

For added convenience, the Auto Defrost includes a built-in beep mechanism that reminds you to check, turn over, separate, or rearrange the food in order to get the best defrost results. Three different defrosting levels are provided:

1. MEAT

2. POULTRY

3. FISH

Available weight is 0.1-6.0 lbs.

• Suppose you want to defrost 0.6 lbs of meat.

OPERATING TIPS

• For best results, remove fish, shellfish,meat, and poultry from its original closed paper or plastic package (wrapper). Otherwise, the wrap will hold steam and juice close to the foods, which can cause the outer surface of the foods to cook.

• For best results, roll your ground meat into a ball before freezing. During the DEFROST cycle, the microwave will signal when it is time to turn the meat over. Scrape off any excess frost from the meat and continue defrosting.

• Place foods in a shallow containers or on a microwave roasting rack to catch drippings.

This table shows food type selections and the weights you can set for each type. For best results, loosen or remove covering on food.

Weight conversion table

You are probably used to measuring food in pounds and ounces that are fractions of a pound (for example, 4 ounces equals 1/4 pound). However, in order to enter food weight in Auto Defrost, you must specify pounds and tenths of a pound.

If the weight on the food package is in fractions of a pound, you can use the following table to convert the weight to decimals.

DEFROSTING TIPS

When using Auto Defrost, the weight to be entered is the net weight (the weight of the food minus the container).
Before starting, make sure to remove any and all metal twist-ties that often come with frozen food bags, and replace them with strings or elastic bands.
Open containers, such as cartons, before placing in the oven.
Always slit or pierce plastic pouches or packaging.
If food is foil wrapped, remove foil and place food in a suitable container
Slit the skin of skinned food, such as sausage.
Bend plastic pouches of food to ensure even defrosting.
Always under estimate defrosting time. If defrosted food is still icy in the center, return it to the microwave oven for more defrosting.
The length of defrosting time varies according to how solidly the food is frozen.

SETTING BEVERAGE

Press key 1,2 or 3 to select the amount of beverage.

• Suppose you want to have 1 cup of beverage.
