Do not use the Meal Sensor probe when cooking poultry. Because of the amount of bone and shape of poultry, there is no place where the meat is thick enough to place the probe properly.

TIPS

Casseroles cooked using the MEAL SENSOR probe should be made from precooked foods. Do not use raw meats, raw vegeta- bles and cream sauces in casseroles.

Dry casseroles do not work well

Thaw frozen casseroles and meats in the microwave oven before inserting the probe.

If you are cooking individual servings such as mugs of soup, check the probe setting

in several of the items -all the mugs may not heat at the same rate.

l Dry meat loaf mixtures don’t work well.

l Remember that roasts may vary in size,

shape and composition. Use the timings for minutes per pound as a guideline as well as the MEAL SENSOR probe.

l Starchy vegetables tend to stick to the MEAL SENSOR probe.
