-T YOUR OWN CAN DO
Cooking with your new oven offers a wide variety of food preparation options. Microwave cooking uses very short, high frequency radio waves. The movement of the microwaves through the food generates heat and cooks most foods faster than regular methods, while retaining their natural texture and moisture. Microwave cooking heats food directly, not the cooking utensil or the interior of the oven. Reheating is easy and defrosting is particularly convenient because less time is spent in food preparation.
Convection cooking constantly circulates heated air around the food, creating even browning and
Your new oven also offers the option of combination cooking, using microwave energy along with convection cooking. You cook with speed and accuracy, while browning and crisping to perfection.
You can use microwave cooking, convection cooking or combination cooking to cook by time. Simply preset the length of cooking time desired and your oven turns off automatically. Or you can cook by temperature, by these methods, using the temperature probe to determine the doneness by the internal temperature of the food. This method takes the guesswork out of cooking, shutting the oven off automatically when the food reaches the desired temperature.
The Automatic Cooking Control (AUTO COOK) feature does your microwave cooking for you. It’s easy and
AUTO ROAST is a combination cooking function that uses the temperature probe. You simply select from 8 Auto Roast codes, and the oven automatically adjusts power level, oven temperature and internal food temperature to cook the food the way you want it.
AUTO DEFROST automatically sets the defrosting time and power levels for you. You choose the appropriate code number from 1 to 3 from the food you are defrosting, then enter the food weight in pounds and tenths of a pound and touch the START pad. The oven calculates the defrosting time and changes power levels during defrosting to give even defrosting results.
The Auto Start Timer lets you program the oven to start cooking at a desired time, even if you’re not at home.
The following guide shows at a glance the difference between microwave, convection and combination cooking.
