Questions and Answe~
Q. I set my oven for the time
called for in the recipe, but at the
end of the time allowed, my food
wasn't done. What happened?
A. Since house power varies due
to time or location, many recipes
give you a time range to prevent
overcooking. Set the oven for
minimum time, test the food for
doneness, then cook your food a
little longer, if necessary.
Q. I touched the number pads
and selected my power level. When
I touched START, however, my
oven didn't come on. Why not?
A. The TIME COOK pad must be
touched before setting the number
pads or else your oven will not
begin cooking.
Q. I want to cook on a power
level other than High. What do I
need to do?
A. To change the power level,
touch the POWER LEVEL pad.
"P-10" appears on the display
panel. Enter new number.
Q. What happens if I accidentally
operate the microwave oven
without food in it?
A. Accidental use for short periods
of time does not damage the oven
but it is not recommended.
Q. Can I interrupt my Time
Cook function to check the food?
A. Yes. To resume cooking,
simply close the door and touch
the START pad. The timer must be
reset for cooking to resume unless
time is remaining on timer.
