Auto Cook - GE JE1468L Use And Care & Cooking Manual

Questions & Answers
Q. If my food is not completely reheated after
using Auto Reheat, what should I do?
A. Use Time Cook I & II to reheat for additional time
until desired temperature is reached.
The Auto Cook feature may be used to eliminate your
need to look up cooking time in a cookbook or guess
how long to set cooking time. By actually sensing
the steam that escapes as food microwaves, this
feature automatically adjusts the oven's cooking
time to various types and amounts of food.
Foods Recommended
A wide
variety of foods
including meats,
fish casseroles,
vegetables,
leftovers and
convenience
foods can be
Auto Cooked.
Easy to Use
Simply touch 3 control pads—AUTO COOK, desired
CODE, and START. The word "AUTO" appears on
the display and the sensor is activated to sense steam
from food.

Q. What if I don't fully cover the dish in Auto
Reheat?
A. Oven senses steam too quickly, which shortens the
reheating time and leaves food too cool. Cover
tightly and reset Auto Reheat.

AUTO COOK

Because most cooking containers must be covered
during Auto Cook, this feature is best with foods that
you want to steam or retain moisture.
NOTE: Use of the metal Double Duty
shelf with Auto Cook is NOT recommended.
Foods Not Recommended
Foods that
must be cooked
uncovered,
foods that
require constant
attention, foods
that require
addition of
ingredients
during cooking, and foods calling for a dry look or
crisp surface after cooking should not be Auto
Cooked. It is best to Time Cook them.
Foods that microwave best using the temperature
probe should be Temp Cooked or Auto Roasted.
Keep Door Closed
Do not open the oven door while the word "AUTO"
is displayed—steam escaping from the oven can
affect cooking performance. If the door is opened,
close the door and touch START immediately.
