Eneqgy-Saving Tips

●Use proper power level as recommended and DO N~

OVERCOOK.

QDo not operate the oven while empty. If b~ accident the oven should run empty a minute or two, no harm is done. However, try to avoid operating the oven empty at all times—saves energy and also ensures good, long-term life of oven.

●Preheat the oven only when necessary. Most foods will cook satisfactorily without preheating. If you find preheating is necessary, keep an eye on the indicator light, and put food in the oven promptly after the light goes out.

●Always turn oven OFF before removing food.

●During baking, avoid frequent

door openings. Keep door open as short a time as possible when it is opened.

●For self-cleaning oven, be sure to wipe up excess spillage before self-cleaning operation.

●Cook complete oven meals instead of just one food item. Potatoes, other vegetables, and some desserts will cook together with a main-dish casserole, meat loaf, chicken or roast. Choose foods that cook at the same temperature in approximately the same time.

●Use residual heat in oven whenever possible to finish cooking casseroles, oven meals, etc. Also add rolls or precooked desserts to warm oven, using residual heat to warm them.

Microwaving Tips

QMake sure all cookware used in your microwave oven is suitable for microwaving. Most glass casseroles, cooking dishes, measuring cups, custard cups, pottery or china dinnerware which does not have metallic trim or glaze with a metallic sheen can be used. Some cookware is labeled “suitable for Microwaving?

If you are unsure, use this dish test: Measure 1 cup water in a glass cup. Place in oven on or beside dish.

Microwave 1 minute at HIGH. If water becomes hot, dish is microwave safe. If dish heats, it should not be used for microwaving.

●Paper towels, wax paper, and

plastic wrap can be used to cover dishes in order to retain moisture and prevent spattering.

●Some microwaved foods require stirring, rotating, or rearranging. Check your cookbook for specific instructions.

●Steam builds up pressure in foods which are tightly covered by a skin or membrane. Pierce potatoes, egg yolks and chicken livers to prevent bursting.
