Short Cooking TimesAs microwave cooking times are muchshorter than other cooking methods it isessential that recommended cooking timesare not exceeded without first checking thefood.
Cooking times given in the cookbook areapproximate. Factors that may affect cook-ing times are: preferred degree of cooking,starting temperature, altitude, volume, sizeand shape of foods and utensils used. Asyou become familiar with the oven, you will beable to adjust these factors.
It is better to undercook rather than overcookfoods. If food is undercooked, it can alwaysbe returned to the oven for further cooking.If food is overcooked, nothing can be done.Always start with minimum cooking times.
Important.If the recommended cooking times areexceeded the food will be spoiled and inextreme circumstances could catch fire andpossibly damage the interior of the oven.
1. Small Quantities of Food.Take care when heating small quantitiesof food as these can easily burn, dry outor catch fire if cooked too long. Alwaysset short cooking times and check thefood frequently.
NEVER OPERATE THE OVEN WITH-OUT FOOD INSIDE ON MICROWAVEOR COMBINATION.
2. Foods Low in Moisture.
Take care when heating foods low in moisture, eg, bread items, chocolate, biscuits and pastries. These can easily burn, dry out or catch fire if cooked too long.We do not recommend heating foodslow in moisture such as popcorn or poppodums. This oven has been developed for food use. We do not recommend that it is used for heating non-food items such as wheat bags or hot water bottles.
3. Christmas Pudding.Christmas puddings and other foods highin fats or sugar, e.g. jam, mince pies,must not be over heated. These foodsmust never be left unattended as withover cooking these foods can ignite.
4. Boiled Eggs.Eggs in their shell and whole hard- boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode even after microwave heating has ended.
5. Foods with Skins.Potatoes, apples, egg yolk, whole vegetables and sausages are examplesof food with non porous skins. Thesemust be pierced using a fork before cook-ing to prevent bursting.
6. Liquids.Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode. When heating liquids, e.g. soup, sauces and beverages in your microwave oven, over heating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without evidence of bubbling.This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility the following steps shouldbe taken:
a) Avoid using straight-sided containerswith narrow necks.
b) Do not overheat.c) Stir the liquid before placing the
container in the oven and againhalfway through the heating time.
d) After heating, allow to stand in theoven for a short time, stirring againbefore carefully removing the container.
e) Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care should be taken when handling the container.
Important Information – Read Carefully

Important Information – Read Carefully
7. Lids.Always remove the lids of jars andcontainers and takeaway foodcontainers before you microwave them.If you don’t then steam and pressuremight build up inside and cause anexplosion even after the microwavecooking has stopped.
8. Deep Fat Frying.Do not attempt to deep fat fry in youroven.
9. Meat Thermometer.Use a meat thermometer to check thedegree of cooking of roasts and poultryonly when meat has been removedfrom the microwave. If undercooked,return to the oven and cook for a fewmore minutes at the recommendedpower level. Do not leave aconventional meat thermometer in theoven when microwaving.
10. Paper, Plastic.When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition. Do not use wire twist-ties with roasting bags as arcing will occur.
Do not use re-cycled paper products,e.g. Kitchen roll unless they say theyare specifically designed for use in amicrowave oven. These products contain impurities which may causesparks and/or fires when used.
11. Reheating.It is essential that reheated food isserved “piping hot”.
Remove the food from the oven andcheck that it is “piping hot”, i.e. steam isbeing emitted from all parts and anysauce is bubbling. (If you wish you maychoose to check the food has reached72˚C with a food thermometer – butremember do not use this thermometerinside the microwave.)
For foods that cannot be stirred, e.g. lasagne, shepherds pie, the centre should be cut with a knife to test it is well heated through. Even if a manufacturer’s packet instructions havebeen followed always check the food ispiping hot before serving and if in doubtreturn your food to the oven for further heating.
12. Auto Sensor Cooking.Auto Sensor Program - Whole Chicken.Customers are advised to check that the chicken is thoroughly cooked prior to consumption.
There may be variations in the physicalcharacteristics and water content of thechickens which could affect the result.
If the chicken appears undercooked after completion of the Whole Chicken Auto Sensor program please use the following setting.
1) Set to Combination Mode 2) Set Convection to 190ºC3) Set Microwave to Simmer4) Set Time to 10 minutes
If you continue to experience inconsistent results using the Whole Chicken Auto Sensor program please cook your chicken using cooking chart guidelines on page 62.
Please ensure that the chicken is thoroughly cooked prior to consumption.

Important Information – Read Carefully
13. Standing Time.Standing time refers to the period at theend of cooking or reheating when foodis left before being eaten, i.e. it is a resttime which allows the heat in the foodto continue to conduct to the centre,thus eliminating cold spots.
14. Keeping Your Oven Clean.It is essential for the safe operation ofthe oven that it is wiped out regularly.Use warm soapy water, squeeze thecloth out well and use to remove anygrease or food from the interior. Payparticular attention to the door sealarea and also the areas around themicrowave feed guide situated on theright hand side of the cavity wall. Theoven should be unplugged when clean-ing.
15. Grilling.The oven will only operate on theGRILL function with the door closed.
16. Fan Motor Operation.After using the microwave oven, the fanmotor may operate to cool the electriccomponents. This is normal and youcan take out food even though the fanmotor operates. You can continue usingthe oven during this time.
17. Utensils.Before use check that utensils/containers are suitable for use inmicrowave ovens.
18. Babies Bottles and Food Jars.When reheating babies bottles alwaysremove top and teat. Liquid at the topof the bottle will be much hotter thanthat at the bottom and must be shakenthoroughly before checking the temper-ature. The lid must also be removedfrom babies food jars, the contentsmust also be stirred or shaken beforethe temperature is checked. Thisshould be carried out beforeconsumption to avoid burns.
19. Arcing.Arcing may occur if a metal containerhas been used incorrectly, if the incor-rect weight of food is used, or if theaccessories have been damaged.Arcing is when blue flashes of light areseen in the microwave oven. If thisoccurs, stop the machine immediately.If the oven is left unattended and thiscontinues it can damage the machine.
You can continue to cook by GRILL ORCONVECTION ONLY.
20. Maximum Weight on turntable.The maximum weight that can beplaced on the turntable is 5 Kg (11lb)this includes total weight of food anddish.

Microwave energy has been used in this country to cook and reheat food since earlyexperiments with RADAR in World War II. Microwaves are present in the atmosphere all thetime, both naturally and from manmade sources.Manmade sources include radar, radio, television, telecommunication links and car phones.
Microwaving Principles
The microwaves cause the water molecules to vibrate which causes FRICTION, i.e. HEAT.This heat then cooks the food. Microwaves are also attracted to fat and sugar particles, andfoods high in these will cook more quickly. Microwaves can only penetrate to a depth of 11⁄2-2 inches (4-5 cm) and as heat spreads through the food by conduction, just as in atraditional oven, the food cooks from the outside inwards.
In a microwave oven, electricity is convertedinto microwaves by the MAGNETRON.
REFLECTIONThe microwaves bounce off the metal wallsand the metal door screen.
TRANSMISSIONThen they pass through the cookingcontainers to be absorbed by the watermolecules in the food, all foods containwater to a more or lesser extent.
IMPORTANT NOTES
HOW MICROWAVES COOK FOOD
The dish used to cook or reheat the food will get warm during cooking, as the heat conductsfrom the food. Even in micro waving, oven gloves are required!MICROWAVES CANNOT PASS THROUGH METAL AND THERE FORE METAL COOKINGUTEN SILS CAN NEVER BE USED IN A MICROWAVE, FOR COOKING ON MICROWAVEONLYFoods Not Suitable for Cooking by Microwave OnlyYorkshire Puddings, Souffles, Double Crust Pastry Pies.Because these foods rely on dry external heat to cook correctly, do not attempt to cook bymicro wave. Foods that require deep fat frying cannot be cooked either.
STANDING TIMEWhen a microwave oven is switched off, the food will continue to cook by conduction – NOTBY MICROWAVE ENERGY. Hence STANDING TIME is very important in microwaving,particularly for dense foods i.e. meat, cakes and reheated meals (Refer to page 12).
Boiled EggsDo not boil eggs in your microwave. Raw eggs boiled in their shells canexplode and cause serious injury
13 Amp fused socket
CLING FILMCling film helps keep the food moist and the trapped steam assists inspeeding up cooking times. However it should be pierced beforecooking, to allow excess steam to escape. Always take care whenremoving cling film from a dish as the build-up of steam will be very hot.Always purchase cling film that states on the packet “suitable formicrowave cooking” and use as a covering only. Do not line dishes withcling film. Do not cover foods when cooking by COMBINATION,CONVECTION or GRILL.

General Guidelines
MOISTURE CONTENTMany fresh foods e.g. veget ables and fruit, vary in their moisturecontent throughout the season. Jacket potatoes are a particularexample of this. For this reason cooking times may have to beadjusted throughout the year. Dry ingredients e.g. rice, pasta, can dryout further during storage and cooking times may differ fromingredients freshly purchased.
STANDING TIME
Dense foods e.g. meat, jacket potatoes and cakes, requirea STANDING TIME (inside or outside of the oven) aftercook ing, to allow heat to finish con ducting to cook thecentre completely.
� MEAT JOINTS – Stand 15 mins. wrapped in aluminium foil.� JACKET POTATOES – Stand 5 mins. wrapped in aluminium foil after cooking by
microwave only.� LIGHT CAKES – Stand 5 mins. before removing from dish.� RICH DENSE CAKES – Stand 15-20 mins.� FISH – Stand 2-3 mins.� EGG DISHES – Stand 1-2 mins.� PRECOOKED CONVENIENCE FOODS – Stand for 2-3 mins.� PLATED MEALS – Stand for 2-3 mins.� VEGETABLES – Boiled potatoes benefit from standing 1-2 mins., however most other
types of vegetables can be served immediately.� DEFROSTING – It is essential to allow standing time to com plete the process. This can
vary from 5 mins. e.g. raspberries, to up to 1 hour for a joint of meat.If food is not cooked after STANDING TIME, return to oven and cook for additional time.
PIERCINGThe skin or membrane on some foods will cause steam to build upduring cooking. These foods must be pierced or a strip of skin shouldbe peeled off before cooking to allow the steam to es cape. Eggs,potatoes, apples, sausages etc., will all need to be pierced beforecooking. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BOIL EGGS IN THEIR SHELLS.
13
DISH SIZEFollow the dish sizesgiven in the recipes,as these affect thecook ing andreheating times. Aquan tity of foodspread in a biggerdish cooks andreheats more quickly.
QUANTITYSmall quantities cookfaster than largequantities, also smallmeals will reheatmore quickly thanlarge portions.
SPACINGFoods cook morequickly and evenly ifspaced apart.NEVER pile foods ontop of each other.
SHAPEEven shapes cookevenly. Food cooksbetter by microwavewhen in a roundcontainer rather thansquare.
DENSITYPorous airy foodsheat more quicklythan dense heavyfoods.
COVERINGCover foods withmicrowave cling filmor a self-fitting lid.Cover fish,vegetables,cas seroles, soups. Donot cover cakes,sauces, jacketpotatoes, pastryitems.
ARRANGINGIndividual foods e.g.chicken portions orchops, should beplaced on a dish sothat the thicker partsare to the outside.
STARTINGTEMPERATUREThe colder the food,the longer it takes toheat up. Food from afridge takes longer toreheat than food atroom temperature.
General Guidelines
TURNING ANDSTIRRINGSome foods requirestirring duringcooking. Meat andpoultry should beturned after half thecooking time.
LIQUIDSAll liquids must bestirred before, duringand after heating.Water espe cially mustbe stirred before andduring heating, toavoid eruption. Do notheat liquids that havepreviously beenboiled. DO NOTOVERHEAT.
CHECKING FOODIt is essential that foodis checked during andafter a recommendedcooking time, even ifan AUTO PROGRAMhas been used (just asyou would check foodcooked in aconven tional oven).Return the food to theoven for furthercooking if necessary.
CLEANINGAs microwaves workon food particles,keep your oven cleanat all times. Stubbornspots of food can beremoved by using abranded oven cleaner,applied to a soft dampcloth, always wipe theoven dry aftercleaning. Avoid anyplastic parts, the roofof the oven and doorarea.

Containers to use
When unsure that a cookingcon tainer is suitable for use inyour microwave, check by thefollow ing test:1. Fill a microwave safe measur -
ing jug with 300ml (1⁄2pt) coldwater.
2. Place it on the turntablealong side the dish to betested. If the dish you aretesting is a large dish, thenstand the measur ing jug ontop of the empty dish.
3. Heat on HIGH power for1 minute.
ResultIf the dish is suitable for micro -waving, it will remain cool, whilstthe water in the jug will begin tofeel warm. If the testing dish feelswarm, do not use as it is obvious lyabsorbing microwave energy.N.B. This test does not apply toplastic or metal based con tainerse.g. Le Creuset® style dishes,which should not be used as theyare cast iron covered with enamel.
OVEN GLASSEveryday glass that isheat resistant e.g. Pyrex®,is ideal for Microwave,Convection orCombination cooking. DONOT USE FORGRILLING. Do not use
delicate glass or lead crystal which maycrack or arc.
CHINA AND CERAMICEveryday glazed china, porcelain or ceramic
plates, bowls, mugs andcups can be used ifthey are heat resis tant.Fine bone china shouldonly be used forreheating for shortperiods. Do not usedishes with a metal rimor pattern. Do not use
jugs or mugs with glued handles, since theglue can melt. If dishes are heat resistantthey may be used on CONVECTION andCOMBINATION but not directly under theGRILL.
POTTERY, EARTHENWARE, STONEWAREIf completely glazed, thesedishes are suitable. Do notuse if partially glazed orunglazed, since they areable to absorb water whichin turn absorbs microwaveenergy, making thecontainer very hot andslows down the cooking of food.
FOIL/METAL CONTAINERSNEVER ATTEMPT TO COOK IN FOIL ORMETAL con tai ners onMicrowave only as themicrowaves cannot passthrough and the food willnot heat evenly, it mayalso damage your oven.Foil and metal containers can be used onGRILL and CONVECTION modes and maybe used with care during certainCOMBINATION cooking as long as they arenot damaged or dented.
QUICK CHECK GUIDE TO COOKING UTENSILS
Choosing the correct container is a very important factor in deciding the success or failure ofyour cooking. Testing Dishes for Suitability - For Microwave Cooking Only.
15
PLASTIC
Many plastic containers are designed formicrowave use, but do not use forcooking foods high in sugar or fat or forfoods that require long cooking times e.g.brown rice. Only use Tupperware®
containers if they are designed formicrowave use. Do not use Melamine.Never cook in margarine cartons oryoghurt pots, as these will melt with theheat from the food. If heatproof they canbe used for CONVECTION orCOMBINATION cooking. DO NOT USEUNDER THE GRILL.
PAPERPlain white absorbent kitchen paper (kitchen towel) can only beused for microwave cooking e.g. covering blind pastry cases andfor cover ing bacon to prevent splattering. ONLY USE FOR SHORTCOOKING TIMES. NEVER RE-USE A PIECE OF KITCHENTOWEL. ALWAYS USE A FRESH PIECE OF PAPER FOR EACHDISH.Avoid kitchen paper containing manmade fibres. If you are using branded re-cycled kitchen towel, check first that itis recommended for microwave use. Do not use waxed or plasticcoated cups or plates as the finish may melt. Greaseproof papercan be used to line the base of dishes and to cover fatty foodse.g. bacon rashers, to stop splattering. White paper plates can beused for SHORT RE HEATING TIMES, on MICROWAVE only.
WICKER, WOOD, STRAW BASKETSDishes will crack and could ignite. Do not use wooden dishes in your microwave.DO NOT USE ON ANY COOKING MODE.
CLING FILMMicrowave cling film can only be used for covering food that isreheated by microwave. It is also useful for covering food to becooked, but care should be taken to avoid the film being in directcontact with the food eg. Do not line dishes with cling film. DONOT USE ON ANY OTHER COOKING MODE.
ROASTING BAGSRoasting bags are useful when slit up one side to tent a joint, forroasting by power and time. Do not use the metal twists supplied,when using MICROWAVE or COMBINATION.
ALUMINIUM FOILSmall amounts of smooth aluminium foil can be used to SHIELDjoints of meat during defrosting and cook ing by Microwave, as themicrowaves cannot pass through the foil, this prevents the partsshielded from overcook ing or over de frost ing. Take care that the foildoes not touch the sides or roof of the oven, as this may causearcing and damage your oven. Aluminium foil can be used forCONVECTION cooking.

This feature allows you to defrost minced meat, chops, chicken portions, meat joints andbread.The CHAOS defrost pad should be pressed to select the correct category and then enter inthe weight of the food in grams or pounds and ounces using the appropriate pads (Seepage 19). Foods should be placed in a suitable dish, whole chickens and joints of meatshould be on an upturned saucer or on a rack. Chops, chicken portions and slices of breadshould be placed in a single layer. It is not necessary to cover the foods. The CHAOS Theory principle is used in Auto Weight defrost programs to give you a quickand more even defrost. The CHAOS system uses a random sequence of pulsing microwaveenergy which speeds up the defrosting process.During the program the oven will beep to remind you to check the food. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT YOU TURN AND STIR THE FOOD FREQUENTLY AND SHIELDIF NECESSARY (See page 21). On hearing the first beep you should TURN and SHIELD (ifpossible). On the second beep you should turn the food or break it up.
Auto Weight Defrost Programs
CATEGORY 1 BREADThe Bread Program is suitable for defrosting small items e.g. rolls, buns and slices of breadwhich are required for immediate use. Small items may feel warm immediately afterdefrosting. Loaves can also be defrosted on this program but these will require standingtime to allow the centre to thaw out. Standing time can be shortened if slices are separatedand buns and loaves cut in half. Items should be turned halfway during defrosting. THISPROGRAM IS NOT SUITABLE FOR CREAM CAKES OR DESSERTSe.g. cheesecake.CATEGORY 2 MEAT ITEMS (MINCE/CHOPS/CHICKEN PORTIONS)It is necessary for mince to be broken up frequently during defrosting and this is best carriedout in a large shallow dish. Chops and chicken portions should be arranged in a single layerand turned frequently.CATEGORY 3 MEAT JOINTS/WHOLE CHICKENSMeat joints and chickens will require shielding during defrosting especially if they areparticularly fatty pieces. This is to prevent over defrosting on the outside edges. Smooth foilsecured with cocktail sticks should be used. DO NOT ALLOW THE FOIL TO TOUCH THEWALLS OF THE OVEN. Back fat of joints, legs, wings and breast bones need shielding (seephotograph above). Standing time of at least 1 hour should be allowed (rolled joints mayrequire longer) before cooking to ensure the centre is fully defrosted.

1 Check foods during defrosting. Foods vary in their defrosting speed.2 It is not necessary to cover the food.3 Always turn or stir the food especially when
the oven “beeps’’. Shield if necessary (see point 5).4 Minced meat/chops/chicken portions should be broken up or separated as soon as possible and
placed in a single layer.5 Shielding prevents food cooking. It is essential when defrosting chickens and joints of meat. The
outside thaws out first, so protect wings/breast/fat with smooth pieces of aluminium foil securedwith cocktail sticks.
6 Allow standing time so that the centre of the food thaws out. (minimum 1 hour for joints of meatand whole chickens)
By selecting the DEFROST power level fromthe microwave power pad, and setting a time,you can defrost food in your microwave. Thebiggest problem is getting the insidedefrosted before the outside starts to cook.
For this reason a defrost program alternatesbetween a defrost power and a standingtime. The name for this type of defrost iscyclic and during the standing stages there is
not any microwave power in the oven,although the light will remain on and theturntable will turn. The automatic stand timesensure a more even defrost but it is stillnecessary to allow for standing time beforeuse. Place foods in a suitable container. Meatjoints and chickens should be placed on anupturned saucer or on a plastic rack if youhave one.
Defrosting Guidelines
Turn dense foods and meat 2/3times during defrosting.
TIPS
Separate chops and small itemse.g. bread slices where possible.
Chickens and joints of meat willrequire shielding during defrosting.
Break up small items e.g. mincedmeat, frequently during defrosting.

• Press Start.The cookingprogram will startand the time in thedisplay will countdown.
CAUTIONS:THE ACCESSORIES AND SURROUNDING OVEN WILL GET VERY HOT. USEOVEN GLOVES.
The radiant Grill system on the oven gives efficient cooking for a wide variety of foods e.g.chops, sausages, steak, toast, oven chips etc.
ALWAYS PREHEAT THE GRILL BEFORE USE.The metal tray must be on the glass turntable when preheating, unless you are using theenamel shelf.
NOTE: The Grill will only operate with the oven door closed, and there is no microwavepower on the GRILL only program.
When using the grill to cook foods, once the grill is preheated the cooking times will be similar totraditional grilling. Most foods will require turning halfway through the cooking time (see sectionon oven accessories page 27).
The Grill has three variable settings, Grill 1 (High), Grill 2 (Medium) and Grill 3 (Low). Grill 1 willbe the hottest.
GRILLING TIMES
27
Place food on Splash Guard in the MetalTray on the High Wire Rack on Turntable.The splash guard will allow fat to dripthrough into the Metal Tray which will prevent excess splatter and smoke whengrilling steaks, chops and other fatty foods.
Most foods require turning halfway duringcooking. When turning food, open oven doorand CAREFULLY remove the Metal Tray,Splash Guard and High Wire Rack orenamel shelf by holding the accessoriesfirmly. Use oven gloves when removingaccessories as they will be very hot, and sowill the roof and walls of the oven.
After turning, return food to the oven, closedoor and press START. The oven willcontinue to count down the remainingcooking time. It is quite safe to open theoven door at any time to check the progressof the food as it is grilling.
Grilling
When grilling foods the Glass Turntable should be in position, with the High WireRack and the Metal Tray on top. The splash guard is placed inside the metal traywhen cooking fatty foods. Or the enamel shelf can be used for grilling large quantities of food or to brown off a dish of food, but we do not recommend using thisfor fatty foods that can splatter.
OVEN ACCESSORIES TO USE
1. There is no microwave power on the GRILL only program.
2. Use the accessories provided, as explained above.
3. The Grill will only operate with the oven door closed.
4. Most meat items e.g. bacon, sausages, chops can be cooked on the hottest setting -GRILL 1.
5. GRILL 2 and GRILL 3 are used for more delicate foods or those that require a longergrill time e.g. fish or chicken portions.
6. ALWAYS PREHEAT THE GRILL WITH THE METAL TRAY ON GLASS TURNTABLE,UNLESS YOU ARE USING THE ENAMEL SHELF.
7. NEVER COVER THE FOOD WHEN GRILLING.
8. ALWAYS USE OVEN GLOVES WHEN REMOVING THE FOOD AND ACCESSORIESAFTER GRILLING AS THE OVEN AND ACCESSORIES WILL BE VERY HOT.
9. After Grilling it is important that the Grill accessories are removed for cleaning beforereuse and that the oven walls and floor are wiped with a cloth squeezed in hot soapywater to remove any grease. DO NOT PUT ACCESSORIES IN DISH WASHER.

Grill 1-2-3
Micro Power
COMBINATION cooking is ideal for manyfoods. The microwave power cooks themquickly, whilst the oven, grill or both givesthe traditional browning and crispness.
All this happens simultaneously resulting inmost foods being cooked in 1/2-2/3 of theconventional cooking time.
There is no need to preheat onCOMBINATION programs, EXCEPT whencooking pastry and using aCOMBINATION program of Grill andMicrowave.
It is possible to use smooth seamed metaltins and foil containers on COMBINATIONbut they must be placed directly onto themetal tray on the glass turntable. They mustnot be placed directly onto the Low Rack, orarcing will occur.
If you experience arcing, which is when yousee blue sparks or hear crackling noises,the metal container is unsuitable or youhave insufficient food in the oven. Youshould stop the program immediately andchange the container or re-program toCONVECTION only.
To cook successfully by COMBINATION youshould always use a minimum of 200 g(7oz) food. Small quantities should becooked by CONVECTION, GRILL orTURBO-BAKE.

lessmore
These features allow you to cook or reheat foods automatically. There is no need to enterthe weight, as these programs use a humidity sensor which will automatically select theMicrowave power level and/or Combination setting and calculate the cooking time.
IMPORTANT NOTES:1. If you select an Auto Sensor program directly after plugging in the oven an initial warm up
period will automatically count down in the display window, after which the sensorprograms may be operated.
2. The Sensor Programs cannot be used when the oven is hot. If “HOT” appears in thedisplay window, when trying to set a Sensor program, do not press Stop/Cancel. A fan willautomatically operate to cool the oven within 10-15 minutes, as long as the word “HOT” isleft in the display, otherwise cooling may take longer. If in a hurry, cook the food manually,i.e. select the correct power level and cooking time.

Guidelines for UseFor the auto sensor programs it is not necessary to enter the weight of the food. They must ONLY beused for the foods described.1. Only cook foods within the weight ranges described (see table below).2. Only use the accessories as indicated on pages 44-47.3. It is essential when using the Auto Sensor Programs, which use microwave only, to cover the food with
pierced cling film or a lid that is designed to fit the dish.4. DO NOT cover food on Sensor Combi programs, as they use a Combination of MICROWAVE and
CONVECTION oven and/or GRILL and it will prevent the food browning. The heat of the grill will alsomelt any plastic covering.
5. Always choose a container size that is suitable for the quantity of food i.e. do not allow too large aheadspace or the food may not be cooked correctly.
6. Most foods benefit from a STANDING time after cooking on an Auto Program, to allow heat tocontinue conducting to the centre.
7. To allow for some variations that occur in food, check that food is thoroughly cooked before serving. 8. Due to the variation in the physical characteristics and water content of chicken available in the
market, it is possible that use of the Auto Sensor Program may result in undercooking.
Auto Sensor Program - Whole Chicken.Customers are advised to check that the chicken is thoroughly cooked prior to consumption. There maybe variations in the physical characteristics and water content of the chickens which could affect theresult.
If the chicken appears undercooked after completion of the Whole Chicken Auto Sensor program please use the following setting.

Guidelines for UseThe Auto Weight Programs are designed to take the guesswork out of cooking or reheatingyour food. They must ONLY be used for foods described.1. Only cook foods within the weight ranges described below.2. Only use the accessories as indicated on page 48-49.3. Do NOT cover food, as the programs use a Combination of Microwave and Grill and/or
Convection, and it will prevent the food from browning. The heat of the grill and/or ovenwill also melt any plastic covering.
4. Most foods benefit from a STANDING time after cooking on an Auto Program, to allowheat to continue conducting to the centre.
5. To allow for some variations that occur in food, check that food is thoroughly cooked andpiping hot before serving.
Auto Weight ProgramsMinimum/Maximum Weights to use on Auto Weight Programs

Cooking and Reheating GuidelinesMost foods reheat very quickly in your oven by HIGH power. Meals can be brought back toserving temperature in just minutes and will taste freshly cooked and NOT leftover. Alwayscheck food is piping hot and return to oven if necessary.
As a general rule, always cover wet foods, e.g. soups, casseroles and plated meals.
Do not cover dry foods e.g. bread rolls, mince pies, sausage rolls etc.
The charts on pages 52-72 show you the best way to cook or reheat your favourite foods.The best method depends on the type of food.
Remember when cooking or reheating any food that it should be stirred or turned whereverpossible. This ensures even cooking or reheating on the outside and in the centre.
When is food reheated?
Food that has been reheated or cooked should be served “piping hot” i.e. steam should bevisibly emitted from all parts. As long as good hygiene practices have been followed duringthe prepa ra tion and storage of the food, then cooking or reheating presents no safety risks.
Foods that cannot be stirred should be cut with a knife to test that they are adequatelyheated throughout. Even if a manufac tur er’s instructions or the times in the cookbook havebeen followed, it is still important to check the food is heated thoroughly. If in doubt, alwaysreturn to the oven for further reheating.
If you cannot find the equivalent food in the chart then choose a similar type and size listedand adjust the cooking time if necessary.
PLATED MEALS
Everyone’s appetite varies and reheat timesdepend on meal contents. Dense items e.g.mashed potato, should be spread out well. Ifa lot of gravy is added, extra time may berequired. Place denser items to the outside ofthe plate. Between 3-4 mins. on HIGH powerwill reheat an average portion. If stacking twomeals, heat on HIGH power for 6-7 mins.and change the meals over halfway.
CANNED FOODS
Remove foods from can and place in asuitable dish before heating.
SOUPS
Use a bowl and stir before heating and atleast once through reheat time and again atthe end.
CASSEROLES
Stir halfway through and again at the end ofheating.
Increasing and Decreasing RecipesINCREASING RECIPES
• To increase a recipe from 4 to 6servings, increase each ingredient listedby half. To double the quantity, simplydouble every ingredient listed.

Increasing and Decreasing RecipesINCREASING RECIPES
• To increase a recipe from 4 to 6 serv-ings, increase each ingredient listed byhalf. To double the quantity, simply dou-ble every ingredient listed.
• Do not forget that large quantities willrequire a larger dish. Make sure that it isdeep enough to prevent the recipe fromboiling over during cooking.
• Cover as directed in the recipe. Stir orrearrange foods as recommended.
• Increase the stand times by 5 mins. perlb.
• Always check the recipe during cooking.
• When increasing the ingredients to 6servings, add an extra one third of theoriginal cooking time, i.e.. 30 mins. onMEDIUM power for 4 servings willbecome 40 mins. on MEDIUM power for6 servings.
• When doubling a recipe from 4 to 8add on half the original cooking time, i.e.30 mins. on MEDIUM power for 4 serv-ings will become 45 mins. on MEDIUMpower for 8 servings.
DECREASING RECIPES
• To decrease a recipe from 4 servings to2 servings, halve the ingredients listed.
• Choose a dish that is proportionallysmaller than the one recommended inthe recipe, however make sure it is deepenough to stop food boiling over.
• Allow half to two-thirds of the originalcooking time, i.e. 30 mins. on MEDIUMpower for 4 servings will become 15-20mins. on MEDIUM power for 2 servings.
Using Recipes from Other BooksThe best way to convert a family favouritedish is to find a similar recipe in a cookerybook to give you a guide to the correctmethod and timings to use.
Many cookbooks refer to 650W ovens,however since 1990 oven output powershave been set by a new standard (IEC).
When using other cookbooks, the 1000 Woutput power of your oven must be allowedfor. Use the same power level suggestede.g. HIGH or MEDIUM and select the samecooking time suggested, however CHECKthe progress of the food during cookingand adjust the time if necessary.
Cooking for One• For one serving quarter ALL ingredients
listed.
• Choose a dish that is proportionallysmaller than the one recommended inthe recipe.
• Use the same cooking power recom-mended in the original recipe.
• Start by cooking for one quarter of therecommended cooking time, althoughextra time in most cases will be required.
• Always check the food during cooking.
• There is not a great saving for reducedquantities of soups, casseroles, stewsand rice, as a minimum time is requiredto tenderise meats and blend flavours.
• When cooking for one it often makessense to cook for two and plate up bothmeals. Freeze one meal for a later date.

Meat and Poultry
DEFROSTED JOINTS
If the meat has previously been frozen,ensure it is properly thawed before cook-ing. Defrosted joints of meat must beallowed to STAND for up to an hour beforecooking to ensure the centre is fullydefrosted.
FAT
Large amounts of fat absorb microwaveenergy and can cause the meat next to itto overcook. Always choose meat that isn’texcessively fatty. Braised and stewed meatcooked in a microwave has a slightly firmtexture and therefore it is essential to pur-chase good quality meats.
STANDING TIME
Meat and poultry joints require a minimumof 15 mins. STANDING TIME. Roast meatis always easier to carve after STANDINGand the meat will continue to cook duringthe STAND TIME. TURNING Joints andpoultry should be turned over halfwaythrough cooking.
ROASTING BAGS
Roasting bags are useful when split up oneside to tent a joint for roasting bymicrowave and time. Do not use the metaltwists supplied when operating withmicrowave.

Questions and Answers
Building-in Your Oven
Q My microwave oven causesinterference with my TV, is thisnormal?
A Some radio and TV interferencemight occur when you cook withthe microwave oven. Thisinterference is similar to theinterference caused by smallappliances such as mixers,vacuums, hair dryers, etc. It doesnot indicate a problem with youroven.
Q Sometimes warm air comes fromthe oven vents. Why?
A The heat given off from thecooking food warms the air in theoven cavity. This warmed air iscarried out of the oven by the airflow pattern in the oven. Thereisn’t an airtight seal to the airtherefore steam can escape. Thereare no microwaves in the air, orsteam. The oven vents shouldnever be blocked during cooking.
Q My oven has an odour andgenerates smoke when using theCONVECTION, COMBINATIONand GRILL function. Why?
A It is essential that your oven iswiped out regularly particularlyafter cooking by COMBINATION orGRILL. Any fat and grease thatbuilds up will begin to smoke if notcleaned.
1. In case of fitting into an oven housing, please use Panasonic’s Trim Kit
NN-TKA80W - WhiteNN-TKA80M - Metallic Silver
2. Microwave ovens should not be built into a unit directly above a top frontventing conventional cooker. This will invalidate your one year guarantee.
3. A microwave which is built in must be more than 850 mm above floor level.Read Trim-Kit instructions carefully before installation.
It is recommended that the microwave oven is placed below a conventionaloven to avoid heat damage to the facia of the microwave.
However if it is necessary to install the microwave above, then a gap of atleast 15 cm (6 inches) is required from the top of the conventional oven cas-ing to the bottom of the microwave oven casing.
