Using Speedcook Features
CAUTION
When using speedcook programs,
remember that the oven, door and dishes will be
very hot!
Before you begin, make sure the turntable is in place.
Use the nonstick metal tray and your own glass or
ceramic cookware, if needed.
The turntable must always be in
place when using the oven.
To Use A Preset Speedcook Menu
Upper oven is already pre-set to cook over 175 popular dishes.
1. Press the Speedcook pad.
If no selection is made within 15 seconds, the display
will revert back to the time of day.
2. Turn the selector dial to select the type of food
category you want. Press the selector dial to enter.

Things That Are Normal
■ Early in a speedcook program, you will see
Optimizing Cook Time on the display. The oven
automatically senses the electrical voltage level in
your home and adjusts the cooking time up or down
for proper cooking.
■ If the door is opened during cooking, the oven will stop
and Pause will appear in the display. Close the door
and press the Start/Pause pad to resume cooking.
■ At anytime during cooking you can turn the selector
dial to change the cooking time. You can change
power levels by pressing the selector dial to edit
setting.
■ To assure consistent cooking results, the oven may
adjust power levels downward if the oven is hot at
the beginning of a program.
■ To cook for additional time after a cooking cycle has
been completed, use the resume feature.
