COMBINATION COOKING
The combination cooking feature allows you to cycle
automatically between microwave and convection cooking
for food that is moist as well as crisp and brown. This
type of cooking is ideal for large foods that require a long
cooking time when prepared in a conventional oven (such
as dense cakes, large roasts, and large whole chicken).
When combination cooking, use the wire rack to allow air
to circulate completely around the dish. Example:
1. Touch COMBI. pad.
ROAST, USE RACK, ENTER
COOKING TIME scrolls through
display.
2. Enter the cooking time.
3. Touch ENTER/START pad.
Roast MWO 30% + Conv. 350°F
COMBINATION COOKING GUIDE
• When roasting meats and poultry, place meat directly on the wire rack, which has been placed on the glass turntable
and sprayed with vegetable cooking spray.
• When using Combination cooking, multiply the weight of the meat by the minutes per pound, listed in the table below to
figure your cooking time. After half the cooking time, turn the meat over, remove any accumulated drippings, return to
the oven, and touch
ENTER/START pad.
• Temperatures given below are removal temperatures. The meat continues to cook after removal from the oven and the
temperatures will rise. Let food stand 5 to 15 minutes after cooking.
