Automatic Cooting
The Auto Cook feature eliminates your need to lookup cooking times in the cookbook or guess how long to set cooking time. By actually sensing the steam that escapes as food microwaves, this feature automatically adjusk the oven’s cooking time to various types and amounts of food.
Because most cooking containers must be covered during automatic cooking, this feature is best with foods you want to steam or retain moisture.
foods calling for a dry look or crisp surface after cooking should not be Auto Cooked. It is best to Time Cook these foods.
Foods that microwave best using the temperature probe should be Temp Cooked or Auto Roasted.

Automatic Cooking Codes
Automatic cooking 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 cooking time, counting down. 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 frequendy prepared fresh or uncooked foods and appropriate codes are recommended in the recipes and Automatic Cooking Control Guide on pages 22 and 23.
