Panacrunch Pan - Panasonic Inverter NN-CD757W Cookery Book & Operating Instructions

Panacrunch Pan

THE ʻCONCEPTʼ
Some foods cooked by microwave can become soft and
soggy. Your Panacrunch Pan accessory will brown and crisp
pizzas, quiches, pies and breaded products just as a
conventional oven. Your Panasonic Panacrunch Pan works
by absorbing microwave energy and transferring this as heat
to crisp the base of the food. The microwave oven then heats
up the food directly and browns the food by the grill. The
heating effect of the pan is maximised by the non-stick
surface.
USING THE PANACRUNCH PAN (Manual operation)
x For best results, pre-heat the pan before using. Place
directly on the Glass Turntable and pre-heat on GRILL 1 +
MEDIUM MICROWAVE for 4 minutes. To assist browning,
brush the food with oil for items such as meat chops and
chicken pieces.
x Remove the pan from the oven and place the food in the
pan. Use the Panacrunch pan handle or oven gloves
as the pan will be very hot. For best results, it is
important that the food is placed on the pan immediately
after pre-heating. Performance cannot be guaranteed with
a time delay.
x Place the pan on the Glass Turntable and cook according
to the guidelines shown in the re-heating and cooking
charts.
NOTES:
1. Do not pre-heat the pan more than 8 minutes.
2. Always place the pan in the centre of the glass tray and
ensure it does not touch the wall of the oven cavity. Failure to
do so may cause sparking which would damage the cavity.
3. Always use the pan on the glass tray. Do not use with the
wire rack.
4. Always use the Panacrunch pan handle or oven gloves when
handling the hot pan.
5. Ensure all food packaging is removed before cooking.
6. Do not place any heat-sensitive materials on the hot pan as
this may cause burning.
7. The pan can be used in a conventional oven.
8. For best results, use the pan in COMBINATION: GRILL/
CONVECTION and MICROWAVE.
CARE OF THE PAN
x Never use any sharp utensils on the pan as this will
damage the non-stick surface.
x After use, wash the pan in hot soapy water and rinse in hot
water. Do not use any abrasive cleaning substances or
scouring pads as this will damage the surface of the pan.
x The pan is dishwasher safe.
