Panasonic NN-S565 General rules for reheating foods by Micro Power, NN-S555 To Operate Press

!! !! ! !! !!!

One of the most common uses for a microwave oven is to reheat food. Your Panasonic microwave allows you to either reheat by placing food into the oven and you choose the micro power level and length of heating time or you may reheat automatically by using the SENSOR REHEAT or AUTO REHEAT buttons on your microwave. Following are some directions for reheating pre- cooked foods from either frozen refrigerator temperature or room temperature.

General rules for reheating foods by Micro

Power

	• Many convenience foods contain heating
	instructions on the packaging. It is best to follow
	these instructions, being sure to check the wattage
	of the oven they used and adjust the cooking time
	if necessary (decrease cooking time by 10% for
	every 100watts more powerful your oven is)
	• If package directions are not available, following
	the recommendations in the charts on the following
	pages.
	• All foods must be pre-cooked; raw foods will not
	cook through during reheating times and if
	consumed may cause illness.
	• Do not reheat in foil containers, cans or plastic
Reheat	containers as incorrect heating times will result.
	Place foods into microwave safe bowls or dinner -
	plate before heating.
	• Most foods can be heated on P10 but consider if
	the food is delicate in structure like baked custard
	or you have a large quantity, a lower power level
	for slightly longer may be gentler.
	• Cover foods with plastic wrap if you require a
	steamed effect or leave uncovered for a dryer
	surface e.g. Crumbed foods
	Note: when cooking by Sensor Cook all food must
	be covered.
	• Stir or re-arrange foods during heating as this will
	help food heat evenly. Stir after heating and let
	stand for 2 to 3 minutes. Check temperatures
	before adding extra heating time and ensure food
	is hot. If food is not heated enough, consumption
	may cause illness.
