How to Adjust

Auto Cook Codes to

Suit Your Taste

By simply adding a 1 after any Auto Cook code number, you can set the oven to cook for 20% less time than the code would regularly provide.

For example, if code 4 cooks your chicken more done than you like it, set code 41 next time and you’ll get 20% shorter cooking time.

If you want a longer cooking time than a code provides, add a 9 after the code.

For the chicken in the example above, code 49 would provide 20% longer cooking time than the regular code 4 would provide.

Emmple:

I AUTOr

Touch START. “AU~” shows on display. DO N~ OPEN DOOR until first oven signal, then rotate dish 1/2 turn if necessary. Close door and touch START to finish cooking.

Questiom & Amwers

Q. Why does myovenautomati~y cut off after the Auto cycle when using Auto Cook code 1, when it does not for other settings?

A. When using Code 1, there is no second phase of minutes counting down. All the cooking is completed in the first phase or Auto.

Q. If my food is not completely cooked after using the suggested code, what should I do?

A. Use Time Cook I and power level 10 for a few minutes until completion.

Q. Do d fmh or f-n vegetables require a standing period after cooking with Auto Cook?

A. Most vegetables are cooked to a crisp state during Auto Cook, just as in regular microwaving. Therefore, it is recommended that you let the vegetables stand for up to 5 minutes depending on size and density of pieces. This standing time also enhances the overall flavor and appearance of most vegetables.

Q. What if I don’t fully cover the dish in Auto Cook?

A. Oven senses steam too quic~y, which shortens the cooking time and leaves food undercooked. Cover tightly and reset Auto Cook.

Q. Do the shapes and sizes of foods make a difference when using Auto Cook?

A. Yes, in some cases, larger pieces will require additional Time Cooking. Be sure to check suggested arrangement of pieces in the dish, since proper arrangement is often a successful tip in regular microwaving.

Q. Do fresh or frozen vegetables require water when using Auto Cook?

A. Yes. Add water to the vegetables as recommended on guide and cover well for even, complete cooking.

Q. Should I use Auto Cook to cook pudding or sauces?

A. Most pudding and sauce recipes require stirring many times during

cooking; therefore, Time Cook is recommended.

Q. My scalloped potitoes were not completely cooked when I removed the dish after Auto Cook. What is 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 using Auto Cook since this function operates properly by sensing steam in the oven. Also, starting Auto Cook with hot foods creates steam in the oven too soon, and decreases the first sensing cycle.

Q. Are there any other foods which are best Time Cooked, rather than Auto Cooked?

A. Bakery foods, candies, melted chocolate or foods when a dry or crisp surface is desirable are cooked best by Time Cook.

Q. Would my plastic containers with very tight fitting lids be appropriate for Automatic Cooking?

A. No, most types of plastic storage dishes, butter tubs, etc. with tight fitting lids are not recommended for microwaving. Also, tight fitting plastic lids may prevent adequate steam from escaping and may keep food from cooking properly during Automatic Cooking.

Q. I tried to warm some chow mein noodles using Auto Cook. Why didn’t this work?

A. Food must have some moisture in order to create steam which helps the auto sensor function. Extremely dry foods such as chow mein noodles, potato chips and other such foods do not have enough moisture.

Q. May I use Auto Cook when I am cooking many foods in more than one dish or casserole?

A. No. Because of different food densities, attention needed during cooking and food amounts, it is best to use Time Cook when cooking many foods.
