Getting the best cooking results

•Although a new rating method* rates this

oven at 850 watts, you may use a reliable
cookbook and recipes developed for

microwave ovens previously rated at
700-800 watts.

• ALWAYS cook food for the minimum

recommended cooking time. Then check

for doneness to avoid overcooking the
food.

• Stir, turn over or rearrange food being

cooked about halfway through the cook
time for most even doneness with all
recipes.

• If a glass cover is not available, use

wax paper, paper towels or microwave-
approved plastic wrap. Turn back a
corner to vent steam during cooking.

*IEC-705 Tost Procedure. The IEC-705 Tost Procedure

is an internationally recognized method of rating
microwave wattage output and does not represent an

actual change to output power or cooking performance.
