SETTING " FROZEN DINNER" This automatic setting is very useful for easily microwaving your favorite single-serving entrees and dinners. This setting may take slightly longer than the microwave time given on the package. That's because of the built-in standing time included in the oven's automatic program. The program's specially designed sequence of power levels plus the automatic standing time allows one setting to microwave a great variety of frozen foods. 1.MICROWAVING 1 OR 2 SMALL SIZE ( 7-9 oz.)

Its automatic program has been designed to tolerate a large variety of food combinations when arranged together. Remember some of the following tips when preparing foods to reheat on the REHEAT setting. How you arrange foods on the plate affects how evenly they cook. Consider the amount and density of each food. DENSE FOODS SUCH AS MEATS ( large or bulky pieces or thick slices of precooked meats ) AND COMPACT VEGETABLE such as mashed potatoes or potatoes au gratin should be placed around edges of plate and spread out as much as possible to expose them to microwave energy. LARGE AMOUNT OF FOODS should be spread out to receive more microwave energy than smaller amounts. Covering dry meat slices with sauce or gravy also helps speed their heating. LIGHT, AIRY FOODS such as rice, small pieces of vegetables, delicate seafood, small chicken nuggets, or small amounts of food absorb microwaves quickly. Place these in the center of the plate where they will be somewhat shielded by foods on the outside edges. TEMPERATURE OF FOODS determine how evenly they cook together. A can of freshlyopened vegetables( food is at room temperature) will probably heat more quickly than foods which are started from the refrigerator. DELICATE DINNER ROLLS, if desired, should be added only the last few seconds. COVER plate with wax paper to hold steam around most foods. Exception: Do not cover to warm rare meats and foods with crisp exteriors. 1.Touch REHEAT pad. CODE appears on the display and 3:00 (3 min.) is set. This coded setting includes three automatic cooking levels which allow for even cooking of many food combinations and types. 2.Touch START pad.
