How to Use
Cook
CodeTM
C ontrol
The
Cook
Code'"
control
provides
a short-cut
method
for entering
time and the Power Level on
your microwave oven. Cooking Codes are only used
for recipes which
need little or no attention,
and
which require no change of power level during cook-
ing. Recipes
which
require
additional
ingredients,
attention
or change
in power level during
micro-
waving should be cooked in the usual manner. Also,
recipes with cooking time of less than one minute or
more than 99 minutes can not use Cooking Codes.
To understand
the Cook Code control, it is impor-
tant to know what the numbers mean and what the
sequence
is. The first and second numbers, if set-
ting a 3 digit Cooking
Code, indicate the amount of
time you desire; the last control
entry number
is
always the Power Level. For example,
125 means
12 minutes at Power Level 5. NOTE: Your oven can
only be programmed
to 99 minutes when using the
Cook Code control and the highest Power Level is
10 which
is represented
by "O". When setting
a
2 digit Cook Code control entry, the first is time, the
second
is power
level.
For example,
50 means
5 minutes at Power Level 10.
On the following
page is shown many frequently
prepared
foods and their codes. It's easy, though,
to make Cooking
Codes for many other recipes.
Just select one or two digits representing
the length
of cooking
time desired,
and a final digit for the
Power Level required. The Cooking Codes given on
the chart are for the minimum time needed, to avoid
overcooking
which can dry out food and make it
tasteless and tough. If you feel that more cooking is
needed, add additional
time by changing
the first
digit of the Code. You cannot add seconds to the
cycle time—Cooking
Codes are for whole minutes
only. If your recipe calls for Power Level changes or
different amounts of time needed between addition
of ingredients,
you may set one Cooking
Code for
the first part of the recipe, then after completion,
set
another Cooking
Code for that period of time and
Power Level.
Remember
that
Cooking
Codes
are for
micro-
waving
by time only.
If you are microwaving
by
temperature,
you must use the Temp Cook or Auto
Roast function.
