Microwave Cooking

Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts of food such as chicken wings, leg tips, fish tails, or areas that start to get warm. Make sure the foil does not touch the sides, top, or bottom of the oven. The foil can damage the oven lining.

For better results, a preset standing time is included in the defrosting time. This may make the defrosting time seem longer than expected.

Popping popcorn

POPCORN lets you pop commercially packaged microwave popcorn by touching just one pad. Pop only one package at a time. Try several brands to decide which gives best popping results. For best results, use fresh bags of popcorn. Cooking perfor- mance may vary with brand and fat content. If you are using a microwave popcorn pop- per, follow manufacturer’s instructions.

NOTE: If you want to add more time during or after popping, use EASY MINUTE.

IMPORTANT: Never leave microwave unat- tended when adding more popping time than recommended by the automatic cycle.
