Canning

Canning is not recommended in microwave or combination ovens.

When heating liquids in the micro- wave oven, especially for extended periods of time, superheating can occur. This condition may result in boil over or possible eruption when

the liquid is disturbed or a jar is sealed.

Damage incurred by canning, or attempting to can, using the oven is not covered under warranty.

 

Do not use metal utensils or pots in the oven.

 

 

 

 

 

Cooking hints

 

 

 

Covering

 

A cover will trap heat and steam, causing food to heat more

 

 

quickly. Always use a lid approved for both convection and

 

 

microwave cooking.

 

 

 

Stirring

 

Redistributes heat in foods. Always stir from the outside

 

 

toward the center of the dish.

 

 

 

Piercing

 

Pierce the shell, skin or membrane of foods before heating to

 

 

prevent bursting.

 

 

 

Turning

 

Large foods should be turned so that the top and bottom heat

 

 

evenly.

 

 

 

Arrangement

 

Do not stack food. Arrange in a single layer on a dish safe for

 

 

combination heating.

 

 

 

Standing

 

Foods often need to stand from 2 to 15 minutes after being

Time

 

removed from the oven. This finishes cooking. Normally an

 

 

internal temperature will continue to rise approximately 5 to

 

 

10° F during standing time.

 

 

 

Spacing

 

Arrange individual foods, such as potatoes, in a circle and at

 

 

least 1 inch apart. This helps food heat more evenly.

 

 

 

Oven Rack

A metal rack

is

provided with

the

oven

for

use

in

convection

oven

mode

.

Metal

racks should not

be

used in the oven during microwave or

 

combination mode. Metal will cause

 

arcing, which could result in damage

 

to the oven.

 

 

 

Popcorn

Popcorn should only be cooked in a

 

specially designed microwave pop-

 

corn popper or in a commercially pre-

 

pared microwave-safe popcorn bag.

 

Do not use a popper

designed to

 

focus or concentrate energy or heat.

 

Popcorn should also be popped only

 

while oven is in

microwave mode

. If

convection heat is present, popcorn may scorch, burn or catch fire.
