Questions and Answers

Q. When I press START, I hear a dull, thumping noise. What is it?

A. This sound is normal. It is letting you know the oven is using a power level lower than 10 (High).

Q. Can I defrost small items in a hurry?

A. Yes, but they will need more frequent attention than usual. Raise the power level after entering the time by touching the desired power level pad. Power level 7 cuts the total defrosting time in about 1/2; Power level 10 cuts the total defrosting

time to approximately 1/3. During either, rotate or stir food frequently.

COOKING BY TEMPERATURE

Internal temperature is the best test of doneness for many foods.

Use Temp Cook/Hold to cook a variety of foods to the desired finished food temperature. The Time

Cook I & II setting is recommended for batters, doughs, frozen foods and foods which are difficult to cook precisely with the probe.

Temp Cook/Hold takes the guesswork out of cooking, because the oven automatically switches to "Hold" setting after reaching the preset food temperature

and maintains that temperature until you touch the CLEAR/OFF pad.

NOTE: Oven automatically switches to "Hold" when preset food temperature is reached.

The Temperature Probe

The temperature probe is a food thermometer that gauges the internal temperature of your food. (Its appearance may vary from picture at right.) The probe must be used when using Temp Cook/Hold or Auto Roast. To use the probe properly, follow directions in the Automatic Roasting section.
