requirea standingperiodafter
cookingwithAuto Cook?
A. Most vegetables are cooked to a
crisp state during Auto Cook, just
as in regular microwaving. There-
fore, it is recommended that you let

minutes depending on size and
density of pieces. This standing
time also enhances the overall
flavor and appearance of most
vegetab~es.

does not affect sensor performance,

Q. Should i useAuto Cook to cook

require stirring many times during

recommended since you should not
open the door during the AUTO
phase of cooking without affecting
end cooking results.
Ct.My scallopedpotatoeswere not
completelycookedwhen 1removed
the dishafterAuto Cook.M/hatis
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 using Auto Cook
since this function operates properly
by sensing steam and aroma in the
oven. Also starting Auto Cook with
hot foods creates steam and aroma
in the oven too soon, and decreases
the first sensing cycle.
Q. Are there any otherfoodswhich
are bestTime Cooked, ratherthan
Auto Cooked?
A. Bakery foods, candies, melted
chocolate or foods when a dry or
crisp surface is desirable, are
cooked best by Time Cook.

A. No, most types of plastic storage
dishes, butter tubs, etc. with tight
fitting lids are not recommended for
microwaving. Also tight fitting lids
may prevent adequate steam and
aroma from escaping and food may
not cook properly during Automatic
Cooking. -

foods do not haveenough moisture.
