The Auto Cook pad may be used
to eliminate your need to fook
up cooking time in the Cook-
book, or guessing how long to
set cooking time. By actually
sensing the steam which escapes as food micro-
waves,this feature automatically adjusts the oven's
cooking time to various types and amounts of food.
Becausecooking containers must be covered, this
feature is best with -foodswhich you wish to steam
or to retain moisture. Foods which are best micro-
waved uncovered or only lightly covered should be
cooked using time or temperature settings.
After touching the Auto Cook pad, and pressing
Start, you will see the word AUTO cm the readout,
which indicates that the sensor has been activated
to sense steam from the food. To prevent the es=
cape of steam from the oven, do not open the door
while the word AU'TO is on the readout. If 'door is
opened, ERROR appears. Close door and touch
STARTimmediately.
Setting 1, which is designed for easy reheating of
foods, automatically turns the oven off as soon as
the sensor detects steam from the foods. C)ther
Auto Cook control settings, which are for fresh or
frozen foods, need additional time after steam has
been sensed. For these foods, the oven determines
the amount of additional time needed, then auto-
matically switches the oven to Time Cook for the
necessary cooking time remaining. Oven beeps
when it switches to Time Cook (AUTOon readout is
repiaced by numbers indicating cooking time), and
ovendoor can beopenedfor stirring or rotating food.
Be carefui of steam when removing tight covers.
When you remove cover, direct the steam away
from hands and face.
Be sure the exterior of tne cooking container and
interior of microwave oven are dry.
Always cover food containersusinglids or plastic
wrap. Plastic wrap should be loose over food to
allowfor expansion.Seal by prwslng plasticwrap
