QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS( continued )
* Q : What does “standing time” mean?
* A : “Standing time” means that food should be removed from the oven and covered for additional time to
allow it to finish cooking. This frees the oven for other cooking.
* Q : Why does my oven not always cook as fast as the microwave cooking guide says?
* A : Check your cooking guide again, to make sure you’ve followed directions exactly ; and to see what
might cause variations in cooking time. Cooking guide times and heat settings are suggestions, to help
prevent over-cooking... the most common problem in getting used to a microwave oven.
Variations in the size, shape and weights and dimensions could require longer cooking time. Use your
own judgement along with the cooking guide suggestions to check whether the food has been properly
cooked just as you would do with a conventional cooker.
* Q : Will the microwave oven be damaged if it operates while empty?
* A : Yes. Never run it empty.
* Q : Can I operate my microwave oven without the turntable or turn the turntable over to hold a large dish?
* A : No. If you remove or turn over the turntable, you will get poor cooking results. Dishes used in your oven
must fit on the turntable.
* Q : Is it normal for the turntable to turn in either direction?
* A : Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, depending on the rotation of the motor when
the cooking cycle begins.
* Q : Can I pop popcorn in my microwave oven? How do I get the best results?
* A : Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn following manufacture’s guidelines or use the preset
POPCORN pad. Do not use regular paper bags. Use the “listening test” by stopping the oven as soon
as the popping slows to a “pop” every 1 or 2 seconds. Do not repop unpopped kernels. Do not pop
popcorn in glass cookware.
