Browning Pan
The Browning Pan feature uses the crisper pan, the broil element and microwaves to crisp and brown foods. While microwaves heat food from above, they also heat the pan from below to brown and crisp the food.
Browning Pan can be used to saute meats and vegetables, pan- fry bacon and eggs, and to crisp and brown pizza and french fries.
Some Browning Pan cycles are programmed to preheat the empty pan for 3 minutes before cooking begins. When the preheating cycle is complete, the microwave oven will stop and prompt you to add the food to the crisper pan. The microwave oven may prompt you to turn over the food during the cycle.
■Always use the crisper pan.
■See the “Teflon Coated Crisper Pan and Handle” section before using.
■Microwave oven cavity and door will become very hot during broil element use. The use of oven mitts is recommended.
■The crisper pan will become very hot. Use the handle to grasp and remove the pan from the oven. Do not place hot crisper pan directly on
■To avoid damage to plastic utensils, do not use them with the crisper pan as it becomes very hot and could melt the utensils.
■Do not use metal utensils, as they can scratch the pan.
■For best cooking results, do not use the pan in any other microwave oven or in a thermal oven.
■For best cooking results, do not place the crisper pan on the convection grid. Always use the turntable as a support for the pan.
■For best results, coat pan lightly with cooking oil to make removing food and cleaning easier.
