HOW TO USE THE MINUTE/SECOND TIMER
(continued)
Using the Minute/Second Timer While Running Another Program
The Minute/Second Timer can be used while another
program is running. First setup the other program and
touch START. Then touch the MIN/SEC TIMER pad.
Enter the amount of time you want by touching the
number pads. Do not touch START; the timer will
automatically begin within three seconds.
NOTE: The Minute/Second Timer will not work
while Auto Start/Reminder, Combination Auto Roast,
Auto Defrost or Auto Cook are running.
Questions and Answers
Q. What will happen if I accidentally reverse my
defrost, hold and cook instructions?
A The oven will automatically rearrange your
program. Defrosting will always come first, then
hold, and then the cooking function.
Q. Can I defrost and hold only?
A. Yes. Sometimes you may only want to defrost a
food, hold it, and cook it later. All you need to do
is program in defrost and amount of time. Then
program the hold time. Be sure to put the thawed
dish in the refrigerator promptly.
Q.
A°
NOTE: Foods that spoil easily, such as milk, eggs,
fish, stuffings, poultry and pork should not be
allowed to sit out for more than one hour after
defrosting. Room temperature promotes the
growth of harmful bacteria.
I programmed my oven for a specific defrosting
time but it defrosted longer than necessary.
What happened?
When instructions conflict, the oven carries out
the last instruction. You may have set the oven
to defrost for 4 minutes, hold for 2 minutes, and
then defrost for 6 minutes. In this case, the oven
would defrost for 6 minutes and hold for
2 minutes.
COOKING BY TIME
