Covering Foods:
Some foods cook best when covered. Use the cover
recommended in the charts for these foods. You may refer
to the hints by touching the Settings pad. See page 16.
1. Casserole lid.
2. Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for micro-
wave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow approximately
1/2 inch to remain uncovered to allow steam to escape.
Plastic wrap should not touch food.
3. Wax paper: Cover dish completely; fold excess wrap
under dish to secure. If dish is wider than paper,
overlap two pieces at least one inch to cover.
Be careful when removing any covering to allow steam to
escape away from you.
