Cooking with CRISP and BROIL

This section gives you step-by-step instructions for operating the Crisp and Broil functions.

To get the best cooking results

•The CRISPWARE™ Crisper Pan is specially designed for crisping and browning food. It can be preheated for 2 to 3 minutes before use.

•Brush Crisper Pan with 1⁄2 tsp (3 mL) of oil or spray with nonstick cooking spray before heating. This will make it easier to remove food from the pan and clean the pan after use.

•Use the broiling grid with or without the Crisper pan. When cooking with the broil element, the Crisper pan will catch drippings from the food.

•Use the broiling grid to place food closer to the broil element for faster cooking. See “Utensils” in the “Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven” section for more information.

•If you want to add more time during cooking use EASY MINUTE.
