DUAL COOK
TIME
Dual Cook is a special feature that enables you to combine two cooking
2 to 4 hours
functions or two temperatures and run them consecutively . This is ideal for those
recipes that require multiple cooking steps . Some examples are:
• Starting a casserole or a dish like nachos, bake to heat through and then
1 to 2 hours
switch to broil for a melted and browned top
• Beginning a dish on a higher heat to achieve a crispy crust and then reducing
temperature for tender results like in Low cooking
