Sure Simmer - Sears Kenmore 89682 Owner's Manual

Using SURE SIMMER
Your microwave oven lets you simmer soups,
casseroles, Stews, and other liquid foods. All you
do is set a simmer time and your oven will bring
your food to a boil and then simmer it for the time
you specify.
NOTES:
• You cannot change the cook power or doneness
for SURE SIMMER.
• This function uses the sensor. The sensor needs 2
minutes, 30 seconds to warm up after the oven is
connected to power or after a power failure. If you
start SURE SIMMER during the warm-up, micro-
wave energy will not be turned on until the sensor
is warm.
• When cooking vegetables, increase amount of
water to 1/4 to 1/2 cup (60 to 125 mL).
• Cover dish with a hard lid, i.e., the lid that
comes with the dish or a dinner plate. Do not use
plastic wrap.

the water before boiling. Use the following method.
