Q.My scalloped potatoes were not completely cooked when I removedthe $Ish after Auto Cook. Whatis wrong?

A.if you prepared the sauce in the oven prior to combining the sauce with potatoes, there may have been too much remaining moisture in the oven, Make sure you dry the oven completely before us- ing Auto Cook since this function operates properly by sensing steam in the oven, Also, starting Auto Cook with hot foods cre~tes steam in the oven too soon, and decreasesthe first sensing cycle.

Q.Are there any other foods which are best Time Cooked,ratherthafiAutoCooked?

CL I tried to warmsomechow meinnoodlesusing

AutoCook. Whydidn’tthiswork?

Q.Whywas my roastnot fullycookedev~nthough the temperatureon the readout was corre~t and AutoRoastcompleted?

A.When cooking with Auto Roast,the temperature probe must be inserted properly as Wily described in the Cookbook, After turning meat over or rotat- ing, the probe should be checked to make sure it hasn’t slipped or changed position,

Q.Lastthe IusedAuto RoastI removedthe roast fromthe ovento turn it over,When1replacedroast In oven and reccannectedthe meat probe, AUTO reappeared,Why?

A.The oven and roast may have cooled to below 80”, or probe may have been repositioned, Con- tinue roasting and numbers will soon reappear,

Q.Are there any particulartrivetsthat work better thanothers?

A.Yes,flat glass trivets such as lids or dish covers give more even cooking results than plastic trivets, Also, ceramic ridge-bottomed roasting dishes work well. Plastic trivets require meat to be turned over more frequently because the grid design and legs allow the bottom of the meat to stay cooler as it cooks, than glasstrivets do,

Q.Why doesn’tthe roast continuecooking during the standingor holdingtime?

A, The oven automatically reaches finished temper- ature and then decreases to a lower power level to prevent overcooking. Thus an even temperature is maintained,
