INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW

ABOUT YOUR OVEN
NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support nor turn the turntable over
so that a large dish could be placed in the oven. The turntable will turn both
clockwise and anticlockwise.
ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron
cycling on and off.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and the
moisture in food will influence the amount of moisture that condenses in the oven.
Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered
ones. Ventilation openings must not be blocked.
In using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before the
minimum time and add time accordingly.
ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING
Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.

Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and
add more as needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for suggestions: paper
towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering
and help foods to cook evenly.

Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of meat or poultry
to prevent overcooking before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.

Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if
possible.

Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as
chicken and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at least
once.

Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to
bottom and from the center of the dish to the outside.

Add standing time. Remove food from oven and stir, if possible. Cover for
