Microwave Oven Cooking COVERING FOODS: Some foods cook best when covered. See pages 8-9 for ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS. Refer to the hints by touching the TIMER/SETTINGS pad. • Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap specially marked for microwave cooking. Cover the dish loosely so plastic wrap does not touch food, leaving an approximately 1/2" gap for steam to escape. • Wax paper: Cover the dish completely, overlapping two pieces at least an inch if the dish is too wide, and fold excess wrap under the dish to secure. • Remove any covering by carefully lifting at the furthest corner to allow steam to escape away from you. SENSOR POPCORN, REHEAT, COOK You can cook or reheat many foods without calculating cooking time or power level. • Suppose you want to cook baked potatoes. 1 Touch COOK pad once. 2 See Menu Label. Select desired food by touching number pad. Ex: Touch 1 for baked potatoes. 3 Touch START/ADD-30-SEC pad.
