OPERATION TIPS FOR COMBINATION COOKING This section provides instructions for each combination cooking function. Combination microwave-convection cooking shortens the cooking time for foods that normally need a long time to cook. It also leaves meat juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. In combination cooking, the convection heat and microwave energy alternate automatically. The oven has three preprogrammed settings that make it easy to use combination cooking. HELPFUL HINTS FOR COMBINATION COOKING 1. Meats can be roasted directly on the metal rack or in a shallow roasting pan placed on the rack. When using the metal rack, check the cooking guide for information on proper use. 2. Less tender cuts of beef can be roasted and tenderized using oven cooking bags. 3. When baking, check for doneness after cooking time is up. If not completely done, let stand in oven for a few minutes to complete cooking. PRECAUTIONS 1. All cookware used for combination cooking must be BOTH microwave-safe and oven-safe. 2. During combination baking, some baking cookware may cause arcing when it comes in contact with the oven walls or metal accessory racks. Arcing is a discharge of electricity that occurs when microwaves come in contact with metal. - If arcing occurs, immediately stop the cooking cycle and place a heat resistant dish between the pan and the metal rack. - Use the metal tray supplied with the oven. It has rubber feet that help prevent arcing. - If arcing occurs with other baking cookware, do not use them for combination cooking.
