Using Your Microwave Oven

Using EASY SIMMER

Your microwave oven lets you simmer soups, casseroles, stews, and other liquid foods. All you do is set a simmer time and your oven will bring your food to a boil and then simmer it for the time you specify.

NOTES:

•You cannot change the cook power or doneness for EASY SIMMER.

•This function uses the sensor. The sensor needs 2 minutes, 30 seconds to warm up after the oven is connected to power or after a power failure. If you start EASY SIMMER during the warm-up, microwave energy will not be turned on until the sensor is warm.

•When cooking vegetables, increase amount of water to 1⁄4 to 1⁄2 cup (63 - 125 mL).

•Cover dish with a hard lid, i.e., the lid that comes with the dish or a dinner plate. Do not use plastic wrap.
