•

ALWAYS cook food for the minimum
recommended cooking time. If necessary,
touch EASY MINUTE while the oven is
operating or after it has completed the
cooking cycle (see page 39 for more
information). Then check for doneness to
avoid overcooking the food.

•

Stir, turn over, or rearrange food being
cooked about halfway through the cook
time for most even doneness with all
recipes.

Although a new rating method* rates this
oven at 850 watts, you may use a reliable
cookbook and recipes developed for
microwave ovens previously rated at
700-800 watts.

* IEC-705 Test Procedure. The IEC-705 Test Procedure is an internationally

recognized method of rating microwave wattage output and does not rep-
resent an actual change to output power or cooking performance.
