Microwave Cooking

Your oven uses microwave energy to cook by a set time or weight, or automatically by sensor.

Sensor microwave works by detecting the increasing humidity released during cooking. The oven automatically adjusts the cooking time to various types and amounts of food.

Convection Baking and Convection Roasting

During baking or roasting, a heating element is used to raise the temperature of the air inside the oven. Any oven temperature from 225°F. to 450°F. may be programmed. A fan gently circulates this heated air throughout the oven, over and around the food, producing golden brown exteriors and rich moist interiors. This circulation of heated air is called convection.

Because the heated air is kept constantly moving, not permitting a layer of cooler air to develop around the food, some foods cook faster than in regular oven cooking.

Always use the shelf when baking. For best results, use one shelf in the lower position. For two-level cooking only, use both shelves.
