49 Use metalonly as directedin
Cookbook.Metal strips as used
on meat, roastsare helpful when
used as shown in Cookbook.
TV dinners may be cooked in
metal trays but when using shelf
they must be replaced in their
box. However, when using metal
in microwave oven, keepmetal
[otherthan metalshe!f)at least
l-inch awayfromsidesof oven.
64 Cookingutensilsmay
becomehot becauseof heat
transferred from the heated
food, This is especially true if
plastic wrap has been covering
the top and handles of the
utensil. Potholders may be
needed to handle the utensil.
e$ornetirnes,theovenfloor
can13ecometoohottotouch.
Be careful touching the floor
during and after cooking.
eDo notuseany thermometer
in food you are microwaving
unless that thermometer is
designed or recommended for
use in the microwave oven.
*Remove thetemperature
probefromtheovenwhennot
usingittocook with. if you leave
the probe insidethe ovenwithout
inserting it in food or liquid, and
turn on microwave energy, it can
create electrical arcing in the
oven, and damage oven walls.
*Plastic IJterMs-4%stic
utonsil$ designed for microwave
cookingareveryuseful,but
should be used carefully, EikHi
microwave plastic may not be as
tolerant of overcooking com3i-
ticmsas are glass or ceramic
materials and may soften or
char if subjected to short periods
of overcooking. In longer exp6-
sures to overcooking, the food
and utensils could ignite. For
these reasons: 1)Use rnicr’o-
wave plastics only “and use
{hem” in strict compliance with
the utensil manufacturer’s
recommendations} 2) Da not
wbject empty Mcmsilsto micro-
waving, 3) Do not permit children
to UW3plastic ukmsils without
complcto supervision.
@When cooking porkfollow
our directions exactly and
always cook the meat to at least
170°. This assures that, in the
remote possibility that trichina
may be present in the meat, it
will be killed and meat will be
safe to eat.
eBoilingeggs (in and out of
shell)isnot recommendedfor
microwave cooking. Pressure
can build up inside egg yolk and
may cause it to burst, resulting
in injury,
aFoods with unbrokenouter
“skin”such as potatoes, hot
dogs or sausages,tomatoes,
apples, chicken livers and other
giblets, and eggs (seeabove)
should be pierced to allow
steam to escape during cooking.
@‘Boilable”cookingpouches
andtightlyclosedplasticbags
should be slit, pierced or vented
as directed in Cookbook. If they
are not, plastic could burst dur-
ing or immediately after cooking,
possibly resulting in injury. Also,
plastic storage containers should
beat least partially uncovered
because they form atight seal,
When cooking with containers
tightly covered with plastic wrap,
remove covering carefully and
direct steam away from hands
and face,

TheAuto Cook padmaybeused
to eliminate your need to fook
up cooking time in the Cook-
book, or guessing how long to
set cooking time. By actually
sensing the steam which escapes as food micro-

cooking time to various typesand amounts of food.
Becausecooking containers must be covered,this
feature is bestwith -foodswhich you wish to steam
or to retain moisture. Foodswhich are best micro-

After touching the Auto Cook pad, and pressing

which indicates that the sensor has been activated
to sense steam from the food. To prevent the es=
capeof steamfrom the oven,do not open the door

Setting 1,which is designed for easy reheating of
foods, automatically turns the oven off as soon as
the sensor detects steam from the foods. C)ther
Auto Cook control settings, which are for fresh or

Automatic Cooking Control is afully automatic
electronic control systemthat lets your microwave
oven do the cooking for you. The charts and
recipes in this section are designed to help you
makethe most of this truly newfeature.
Standard cooking techniques require setting the
oven for aspecified cooking time or aselectedfin-
ished temperature. And that means looking up
recipes in acookbook. .trying to convert old
recipes for microwave cooking. ..or just resorting
to guesswork. This control method works on an
entirely different basis--with aspecial electronic
sensor that detects steamfrom cooking food. The
oven “knows” how the food is cooking; so it can
automatically set the correct cooking time and
maintain the proper power Ieveifor different ‘types
and amounts of food. And it’s adjustable to suit
your individual taste.
Simply touch two control pads—AUTOCOOK and
the desired Code number–and then START. A
chart on the oven control panel gives acompiete
list of CC@%for frequently prepared foods. The
readout display shows AUTO until steamis sensed
—and then signals,anddisplays time counting down.
During AUTO, oven should not be opened, but
when cwensignals, most foods should be turned,
stirred, or rotated, Check the Autcmatic Cooking
Chart far suggestions.
Appropriate containers and coverings help assure
good cooking results. Containers should match in
sizeto thesizeofthe food beingcooked.Coverings
such as plastic wrap secured on all sides, the lid
that came with the container, or microwave-safe
plasticdomesareideal.Forexamplesof containers
andcoverings,seepage12andthefollowing recipe
sectionof this book.
With PreferenceControl, you can adjust the Auto-
matic Cooking f%atur~to yuur individual taste by
adding either”1” or “9” after Code number, If after
trying the suggested Code, yOIJwould prefer less
cooking time, simply add the number “l” after the
Codeand the ovenautomatically lessensthe cook-
ing time by20%,Ifyou wish morecooking time,add
“9” after theCodeto increasecooking time by 2CW0.
Automatic Roasting uses the te~perature probe
rather than the electronic sensor to cook meats
evenlyto the desireddegreeof doneness.Theoven
continually monitors the food’s internal tempera-
ture, Unlike ordinary Temperature Cooking, the
oven changes power levels two or three times
depending on the degreeof donenessduring cook-
ing to giv~you the btist:e.suits.automatically. Meat
