Auto Cook

The Auto Cook feature may be used to eliminate your need to look Lip 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 Auto Cook, this feature is best with foods that you want to steam or retain moisture.

Auto Cook Codes

Auto Cook codes 1 through 8 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 8 are selected, the oven determines how much additional cooking time is needed after steam has been sensed, automatically switches to TIME COOK and signals. The word “AUTO” on the display

is then 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 in the Automatic Cooking section.
