Getting the best cooking results

•ALWAYS cook food for the minimum recommended cooking time. If necessary, touch EASY MINUTE while the oven is operating or after it has completed the cooking cycle (see page 42 for more information). Then check for doneness to avoid overcooking the food.

•Stir, turn over, or rearrange food being cooked about halfway through the cook time for most even doneness with all recipes.

•If a glass cover is not available, use wax paper, paper towels, or microwave- approved plastic wrap. Turn back a corner to vent steam during cooking.

•Although a new rating method* rates this oven at 850 watts, you may use a reliable cookbook and recipes developed for microwave ovens previously rated at 700-800 watts.

*IEC-705 Test Procedure. The IEC-705 Test Procedure is an internationally recognized method of rating microwave wattage output and does not represent an actual change to output power or cooking performance.
