AIJTC)cycle when usingAutoCook ControlCode 1
whenit does not forothersettings?
A. When using Code 1,there is no second phase of
minutes counting down. All the cooking is com-
pleted in the first phase or AUTO.
Q. !f my food is not completely cooked after using
the suggested Auto Cook Control Code, what
should I dO?
A. Thick starchy or dense foods may require some
addHional time cooking. Use TIME COOK and
Power Level 10 for a few minutes until completion
or recover and use Auto Cook Code 1.
Q. Do ail fresh or frozen vegetables require a
standingperiod aftercookingwith AIJTOCOOK?
A. Most vegetables are cooked to a crisp state dur-
ing Auto Cook, just as in regular microwaving.
Therefore, it is recommended that you let the vege-
tables stand for up to 5 minutes depending on size
and density of pieces, This standing time also en-
hances the overall flavor and appearance of most
vegetables.
Q. What if i don’t fully cover the dish in Auto
Cook?
A. Oven senses steam too quickly which shortens
the cooking time thus leaving undercooked dish.
Recover tightly and reset Auto Cook.
Q. Do #he shapes and sizes of food make a differ-
ence when using Auto Cook?
A. Yes, in some cases, larger ~ieces will require ad-
ditional Time Cooking. Be sure to check suggested
arrangement of pieces in the dish, since proper ar-
rangement is often a successful tip in regular micro-
waving.
Q. Should ! use Auto Cook to cook pudding or
sauces?
A. Most pudding and sauce recipes require stirring
many times during cooking; therefore, Time Cook is
recommended since you should not open the door
during the AUTO phase of cooking without affect-
ing end cooking results.
Q. My scalloped potatoes were not
Cooked VVlleni removed ‘thedish after Auto cook.
What is wrong?
A. if you prepared the sauce in the oven prior to
combining the sauce with potatoes, there may have
been too much remaining moisture in the oven.
Make sure you dry the oven completely before us-
ing Auto Cook since this function operates properly
by sensing steam in the oven. Also, starting Auto
Cook with hot foods creates steam in the oven too
soon, and decreases the first sensing cycle.
Q.
Are there any other f(x.xk which are best Tim+
C2xNM@,Fatherthan Auto cooked?
A,
Bakery foods, candies, melted choco!ate or
foods when a dry or crisp surface is desirable, are
cooked best by Time Cook.
Q. Do fresh or frozen vegetables require water
whenusingAuto Cook?
A. Yes, Add water as recommended on chart to the
vegetables and cover well for even, complete
cooking.
Q. Would my plastic containers with very tight fit-
ting lids be appropriate for Automatic Cooking?
A. No, most types of plastic storage dishes, butter
tubs, etc, with tight fitting lids are not recommended
for microwaving, Also tight fitting plastic lids may
prevent adequate steam from escaping and food
may not cook properly during Automatic Cooking.
Q. ! tried to warm some chow mein noodles using
Auto Cook. Why didn’tthis work?
A. Food must havesome moisture in order to create
steam which helps the auto sensor function.
Extremely dry foods such as chow mein noodles,
potato chips and other such foods do not have
enough moisture.
Q. May IIuse Auto Cook when I am cooking many
foods in more than one dish or casserole?
A. No, because of different food densities, attention
needed during cooking, and food amounts, it is best
to use TIME COOK when cooking many foods.
Q. Why was my roast not fully cooked even though
the temperature on the readout
was correct and
Auto Roastcompleted?
A, When cooking with Auto Roast, the temperature
probe must be inserted properly as fully described
in the Cookbook.
Q. Are there any particular trivets that work better
?hanothers?
A. Yes, flat glass trivets provide more browning “to
the bottom of meats than plastic trivets. Also,
ceramic ridge-bottomed roasting dishes work well.
Plastic trivets may require meat to be turned over
more frequently because the grid design and legs
allow the bottom of the meat to stay cooler as it
cooks, than glass trivets do.
Q. When cooking by Auto Roast, why doesn’t the
roast continue cooking during the standing or
ho!ding time?
A. The oven automatically reaches finished tem-
perature and then decreases to a lower power level
to prevent overcooking. Thus an even temperature
is maintained.
Q. I entered
Auto Defrost Code 1, then the number
4 for 4 Ibs. of chicken. -i-hereadout flashed “start”
but when i touched Wart “EERFN3R”flashed. Winy?
A. You must enter 4 and O denoting 4 Ibs. Touch
CLEAR/OFF and begin again. “ERROR” will also
flash if an improper weight for that particular code
has been entered.
