Automatic Mix Cooking
T
he convection microwave oven has two pre-programmed
settings that make it easy to cook with both convection
heat and microwave automatically. Microwave-safe or
oven-safe bakeware may be used.
With the exception of those foods that cook best by
convection cooking alone, most foods are well suited to
mix cooking using either low mix/bake or high mix/roast.
The marriage of these two cooking methods produces
juicy meats, moist and tender cakes and fine textured
breads, all with just the right amount of browning and
crispness.
The temperatures, which range from 100°F
(40°C) to 450°F
(230°C), can be changed; however, the power level cannot.
To change the temperature, first touch LOW MIX/BAKE
or HIGH MIX/ROAST, then touch the same pad again.
When the display reads SELECT TEMP, touch the desired
number/temperature pad. For example: touch HIGH MIX/
ROAST, touch again, then touch number 7 (375°F). The
mix temperature will change to 375°F
(190°C) automatically.

TO PREHEAT AND COOK
The convection microwave oven can be programmed to
combine preheating and automatic mix cooking opera-
tions. You can preheat at the same temperature as the
preset combination temperature or change it to a different
temperature.
Suppose you want to preheat to 350°F
(175°C) and then
cook 25 minutes on 325°F
(165°C) low mix/bake:
1) Touch PREHEAT.
2) Touch number 6 for 350°F
(175°C).
3) Touch LOW MIX/BAKE.
4) Touch LOW MIX/BAKE pad once more to change the
cooking temperature.
5) Touch number 5 for 325°F
(165°C).
6) Enter cooking time by touching numbers 2 5 0 0.
7) Touch START/QUICK ON.
When the oven reaches the programmed temperature,
an audible signal will sound 4 times. The oven will stop
and directions will appear in the display. If the oven
door is not opened, the oven will automatically hold at
the preheat temperature for 30 minutes. After this time
has elapsed, an audible signal will sound, and the oven
will turn off.
8) Place food in dish on turntable.
9) Touch START/QUICK ON.
To program only preheat, touch START/QUICK ON after
step 2. Preheating will start. When the oven reaches the
programmed temperature, follow the indicated message.
