Automatic Cooking Recipe Guide

.omatic Cooking Control is a fully automatic &lectronic control system thatt lets your microwave oven do the cooking for you. The charts and recipes in this section are designed to help you make the most of this truly new feature.

Standard cooking techniques require setting the oven for a specified cooking ~ime or a selected fin-

ished temperature. And that means looking up recipes in a cookbook. . .t~ing to convert old recipes for microwave cookirtg. . .or just resorting to guesswork. This control method works on an entirely different basis—with a special electronic sensor that detects steam fram cooking food. The oven “knows” how the food is cooking; so it can

automatically set the correct cooking time and maintain the proper power level for different types and amounts of food. And it’s adjustable to suit your individual taste.

Easy to Use

Simply touch two control pads—AUTO COOK and

the desired Code number—and then START. A chart on the oven control panel gives a complete list of Codes for frequently prepared foods. The readout display shows AUTO until steam is sensed and then signals, and displaystime counting down. P“ -ing AUTO, oven should not be opened, but

v.n oven signals, most foo@ should be turned, stirred, or rotated. Check the Automatic Cooking

Chart for suggestions. .

Appropriate containers and coverings help assure good cooking results. Containers should match in

size to the size of the food being cooked. Coverings such as plastic wrap secured on all sides, the lid that came with the container, or microwave-safe plastic domes are ideal. For examples of containers and coverings, see page 12 and the following recipe section of this book.

Preference Control

With Preference Control, you can adjust the Auto- matic Cooking Feature .to your individual taste by adding either “l” or “9” after Code number. If after trying the suggested Code, you would prefer less cooking time, simply add the number “1” after the Code and the oven automatically lessens the cook- ing time by 200A. If you wish more cooking time, add “9” after the Code to increase cooking time by 20W0.

Automatic Roasting

Automatic Roasting uses the temperature probe rather than the electronic sensor to cook meats evenly to the desired degree of doneness. The oven continually monitors the food’s internal tempera-

ture. Unlike ordinary Temperature Cooking, the oven changes power levels two or three times depending on the degree of doneness during cook- ing to give you the best results automatically. Meat is cooked evenly, without toughening because lower power Ieveis are used as the meat temperature rises thus cooking meats eveniy whiie retaining the nat- urai juices. After cooking, the oven switches auto- matically to Hoid for an hour. Food stays warm without overcooking.

Foods Not Recommended

A wide variety of foods inciuding meats, fish, casseroles, vegetables, leftovers, and convenience foods can be Auto

Cooked. Match container size with the food, cover secureiy, and do not open door during AUTO cycie. V“ ‘n oven signais, turn, rotat$ or stir as recommended in C .(book or chart on pages 24 and 25.

Recipes and foods which must be cooked uncovered, or which require constant atten- tion, or adding ingredients during cooking shouid be microwaved by TiME COOK. For foods that microwave best using temperature probe, use TEMP COOK or AUTO ROAST. Foods requiring a dry or crisp surface after cooking cook best with TiME COOK.
