One of the most common uses for a microwave oven is to reheat food. Your Panasonic microwave allows you to either reheat by placing food into the oven and you choose the micro power level and length of heating time or you may reheat automatically by using the SENSOR REHEAT buttons on your microwave. Following are some directions for reheating pre-cooked foods from either frozen refrigerator temperature or room temperature.

General rules for reheating foods by Micro

Power

 

• Many convenience foods contain heating

 

instructions on the packaging. It is best to follow

 

these instructions, being sure to check the wattage

 

of the oven they used and adjust the cooking time

 

if necessary (decrease cooking time by 10% for

 

every 100watts more powerful your oven is)

 

• If package directions are not available, following

 

the recommendations in the charts on the following

 

pages.

 

• All foods must be pre-cooked; raw foods will not

 

cook through during reheating times and if

 

consumed may cause illness.

 

• Do not reheat in foil containers, cans or plastic

Reheat

containers as incorrect heating times will result.

Place foods into microwave safe bowls or dinner -

 

plate before heating.

• Most foods can be heated on P10 but consider if the food is delicate in structure like baked custard or you have a large quantity, a lower power level for slightly longer may be gentler.

• Cover foods with plastic wrap if you require a steamed effect or leave uncovered for a dryer surface e.g. Crumbed foods

Note: when cooking by Sensor Cook all food must be covered.

• Stir or re-arrange foods during heating as this will help food heat evenly. Stir after heating and let stand for 2 to 3 minutes. Check temperatures before adding extra heating time and ensure food is hot. If food is not heated enough, consumption may cause illness.

Reheating by Sensor Cook (S) (125 g - 1.0 kg)

Reheating by Sensor is suitable for pre-cooked foods. There is a setting for frozen, and refrigerator temperature or room temperature foods. It is suitable for casseroles, plated meals, soup, stews, pasta dishes (except lasagne) and canned foods.

Do not reheat bread or pastry products, raw uncooked food or beverages on Sensor Reheat.

Foods greater than 1 kg or smaller than 125 g should be cooked by micro power and time.

Follow general directions for heating as above.

Cover foods securely with plastic wrap or a fitted lid, which does not snap seal.

Halfway through the cooking time, the oven will 'beep' and prompt you to stir/rearrange the food. There is no need to recover if not required.

After heating, stir the food, check it is hot and allow standing for 2 to 3 minutes.

To Operate: Press

or

then Press Start.

 

Reheating by Auto Cook Å

Suitable foods include casseroles, plated dinners, soups, stews, pasta dishes, (except lasagne) and canned foods.

Do not reheat bread or pastry items, raw or uncooked foods or beverages.

Cover foods loosely with plastic wrap or a lid, which does not snap seal.
