Automatic Cooking

 

-.

 

67The AU~ COOK feature maybe

 

used to eliminate your need to look

 

up cooking time in the cookbook or

 

guess how long to set cooking time.

 

By actually sensing the steam

 

that escapes as food microwaves,

 

this feature automatically adjusts

.

the oven’s cooking time to various

types and amounts of food.

 

 

Because most cooking containers

 

must be covered during automatic

 

cooking, this feature is best with

 

foods that you want to steam or

 

retain moisture. See page 19for

 

containers and covers recommended

 

for automatic cooking.

 

Note:

 

Use of the metal Double Duty~

 

shelf with Automatic Cooking

 

is N(YI! recommended.

Do not open the oven door while the word “AUTO” is displayed— steam escaping from the oven can affect cooking performance. If the door is opened, the word “ERROR” appears. Close the door and touch START immediately.

Automatic Cooking Codes

Automatic Cooking Codes 1 through 9 are designed to give you easy automatic results with a number of foods.

CODE 1, designed for reheating foods quickly, turns the oven off automatically as soon as the sensor detects steam from the foods.

When CODES 2 through 9 are selected, the oven determines how much additional cooking time is needed after steam has been sensed, automatically switches to MICRO TIME COOK, signals, and the word “AUTO” on the display is replaced by countdown numbers indicating remaining cooking time. When the signal is heard, the oven door may be opened for stirring, turning or rotating food.

A guide behind the oven door lists cooking codes for frequently prepared fresh or uncooked foods and appropriate codes are recommended in the recipes and cooking guide on pages 20 through 27.

Place covered food in oven. Touch AUTO COOK pad. “AUTO COOK” appears on display and “ENTER CODE” flashes.

Touch number pad for desired code. “COOK” and “CODE 2“ shows and “START” flashes. Touch
