GETTING TO KNOW YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
Your oven’s ACCUWAVE* Distribution System also lets you brown and crisp food with the Sizzler Pan. The rubberized pad on the bottom of the Sizzler Pan is made of a special material which absorbs microwaves. This heats the pan very rapidly, browning and crisping the bottom of the food.
The Sizzler Pan reaches about 410°F (210°C) in about 2 minutes (faster than a browning dish, which heats in about
7 minutes). The Sizzler Pan stays at that temperature, which is the best temperature for pan frying.
For the best cooking results
•Always cook food for the shortest cooking time recommended. Check to see how the food is cooking. If needed, touch the ADD MINUTE pad while the oven is operating or after the cooking cycle is over (see the “Using ADD MINUTE” section).
•Stir, turn over, or rearrange the food being cooked about halfway through the cooking time for all recipes. This will help make sure the food is evenly cooked.
•If you do not have a cover for a dish, use wax paper, or
Radio interference
Using your microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV, or similar equipment. When there is interference, you can reduce it or remove it by:
•Cleaning the door and sealing surfaces of the oven.
•Adjusting the receiving antenna of the radio or television.
•Moving the radio/TV away from the microwave oven.
•Plugging the microwave oven into a different outlet so that the microwave oven and radio/TV are on different branch circuits.
Testing your microwave oven
To test the oven put about 1 cup (250 ml) of cold water in a glass container
in the oven. Close the door. Make sure it latches. Follow the directions in the “Cooking at high cook power” section
to set the oven to cook for 2 minutes. When the time is up, the water should be heated.
