COOKING (cont’d)
SETTING “FROZEN DINNER”: This automatic setting is very useful for easily microwaving your favorite single-
serving entrees and dinners. This setting may take slightly longer than the microwave time given on the package.
That’s because of the built-in standing time included in the oven’s automatic program. The program’s specially
designed sequence of power levels plus the automatic standing time allows one setting to microwave a great variety
of frozen foods.
1) MICROWAVE 1 OR 2 SMALL SIZE (7~9oz.) FROZEN DINNERS: Touch FROZEN DINNER pad once.
ENTER AMT (amount) appears on the display.You can skip the amount step for 1 entree, just touch START. For 2
entrees, touch the “2”number pad. Cook times for small-size entrees are as follows:1 entree: 4 min.15 sec, 2 entrees: 7
min.30 sec.
2) MICROWAVING ONE LARGER 10~12 oz.FROZEN PLATED DINNER: Tap FROZEN DINNER pad
twice. ENTER AMT (amount) appears on the display. You can skip the amount step for 1 entree, just touch START.
For 2 entrees, touch the “2” number pad. Cook times for small-size entrees are as follows: 1 entree: 6 min., 2
entrees:11 min.
3) CODE and correct amount of cook time appears on display. Touch START pad.CODE flashes ondisplay and time
begins to count down.
SETTING “REHEAT”: This setting lets you reheat a dinner plateful of chilled leftovers with good results. Its auto-
matic program has been designed to tolerate a large variety of food combinations when arranged together. Remember
some of the following tips when preparing foods to reheat on the REHEAT setting. How you arrange foods on the
plate affects how evenly they cook. Consider the amount and density of each food. DENSE FOODS SUCH AS
MEATS (large or bulky pieces or thick slices of precooked meats) AND COMPACT VEGETABLE such as mashed
potatoes or potatoes au gratin should be placed around edges of plate and spread out as much as possible to expose
them to microwave energy. LARGE AMOUNT OF FOODS should be spread out to receive more microwave energy
than smaller amounts. Covering dry meat slices with sauce or gravy also helps speed their heating. LIGHT, AIRY
FOODS such as rice, small pieces of vegetables, delicate seafood, small chicken nuggets, or small amounts of food
absorb microwaves quickly. Place these in the center of the plate where they will be somewhat shielded by foods on
the outside edges. TEMPERATURE OF FOODS determine how evenly they cook together. A can of freshly opened
vegetables (food is at room temperature) will probably heat more quickly than foods which are started from the
refrigerator. DELICATE DINNER ROLLS, if desired, should be added only the last few seconds. COVER plate with
wax paper to hold steam around most foods. EXCEPTION: Do not cover to warm rare meats and foods with crisp
exteriors.
1) Touch REHEAT pad. CODE appears on the display and 3:00 (3 min.) is set. This coded setting includes three
automatic cooking levels which allow for even cooking of many food combinations and types.
2) Touch START pad. CODE flashes on display and cooking time begins counting down.
3) When cook time has elapsed, END appears on display. Open oven door or touch RESET pad to return clock time
(if set) to display.
