BEVERAGE

NOTE: Do not use this feature twice in succession on the same food portion— it may result in severely overcooked or burnt food.

Beverage

Press the BEVERAGE button to heat an 8–10 oz. cup of coffee or other beverage. The oven starts immediately.

Drinks heated with the Beverage feature may be very hot. Remove the container with care.

If food is undercooked after the countdown, use Time Cook for additional cooking time.
