Auto Weight Programs; Guidelines - Panasonic NN-CT890S Operating Instructions And Cookery Book

Auto Weight Cook Programs
This feature allows you to cook foods by setting the weight. The oven determines the Microwave
power level and/or Combination setting, then gives a cooking time; this cooking time has been
developed following extensive testing by our Home Economists in our development kitchen. Select the
category of food and enter the weight. The weight can be entered in grams or pounds and ounces. To
allow for some variations that occur in food, check that food is thoroughly cooked and piping hot
before serving. This is of particular importance for food items such as poultry, which can vary
considerably in water and fat content which may influence the cooking result. You cannot adjust auto
program cooking times. We recommend a standing time of 10 minutes upon completion of cooking a
whole chicken.

Guidelines for Use
The Auto Weight Programs must ONLY be used for foods described.
1. Only cook foods within the weight ranges described below.
2. Always weigh the food rather than relying on the package weight information.
3. Only use the accessories as indicated on pages 48-49.
4. Do NOT cover food, as the programs use a combination of Microwave and Grill and/or Convection,
and it will prevent the food from browning. The heat of the grill and/or oven will also melt any
plastic covering.
5. Most foods benefit from a STANDING time after cooking on an Auto Program, to allow heat to
continue conducting to the centre. We recommend a standing time of 10 minutes upon completion
of cooking a whole chicken.
6. To allow for some variations that occur in food, check that food is thoroughly cooked and piping hot
before serving.
