Automatic Microwave Cooking

Microwaving with the Auto Cook setting offers especially convenient shortcut cooking for many foods. There’s no guesswork about cooking times, no need to look up suggested times in the cookbook. Instead, a sophisticated sensing device actually detects the steam which escapes from cooking food, and automatically adjusts the oven’s cooking time for various types and amounts of food.

Cooking containers must be covered during Auto Cook, so this feature is best used for foods which you wish to steam or to retain moisture. Eight Auto Cook codes let you select a cycle ideal for many frequently prepared foods. When oven senses the steam, the oven signals so that you can stir or rotate the food as directed. Once steam has been detected, the oven automatically begins counting down the remaining cooking time and adjusts power levels as needed.

Setting the Oven Controls

Step 1: Place food in appropriate container and cover as directed on pages 10 to 16.

Step 2: Touch AUTO COOK. Time of day disappears from display. “Auto” appears on display and “ENTER COOK CODE” flashes.

Step 3: Select the desired Auto Cook code by touching a number pad from 1 to 8. Selected “COOK CODE” appears in the display. “START” flashes.

Step 4: Touch START. Display shows “Auto COOK:’ DO NOT OPEN DOOR DURING THIS TIME. When steam is sensed, oven signals. Stir or rotate food as needed. Touch START to resume cooking. Display shows time counting down. When done, oven displays “End,” signals and turns off.

N~E: Oven will not accept “Auto Cook code” if the oven is hot. If “START” and “Hot” flash on display and “DELAY TIME” appears, you must cool the oven before using Auto Cook or you may choose to use time or temperature microwave cooking.

Questions and Answers

Q. Would plastic storage 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 and do not allow steam to escape properly.

Q. When I opened the oven door to stir my food, the oven beeped and flashed “EEEE?’ What did I do wrong?

A. If the oven door is opened while “Auto” is showing in display, it will signal and flash “EEEE.” Close door and touch START.

Q. When I tried to enter AUTO COOK, “START” and “Hot” flashed on display and “DELAY TIME” appeared. Why?

A. If you had previously used your oven for convection or combination cooking and its interior temperature was above 150°F., “Hot” and “START DELAY TIME” will appear on display. If you start the oven at this time, oven light and cooling fan will come on, but no cooking will begin. When oven has cooled below 150°F., you can use Auto Cook function.

Q. Arethere some foods which do not Auto Cook well?

A. Yes. Puddings and sauces which require frequent stirring, candies and melted chocolate, bakery goods or other foods where a dry or crisp surface is desirable are best prepared by microwave time cooking (see page 22). Also, extremely dry foods such as chow mein noodles or potato chips do not have enough moisture to create steam for the sensor.
