WARNING
Food Poisoning Hazard Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
Auto Start allows the microwave oven to be programmed to turn on at a certain time of day and cook for a set length of time. Before setting, make sure the correct time of day is displayed.

Browning Pan Use
The Browning Pan (sold separately) is specially designed to brown, crisp, and pan-fry foods in the microwave oven. The Browning Pan reaches its optimal cooking temperature in approximately 3 minutes. Use the pan as quickly as possible after it is heated for best results. While microwaves heat food from above, they also heat the pan very quickly from below to brown and crisp the food. s Use high power to preheat the pan and to cook foods such as bacon, hamburgers, chicken breasts, frozen pizza and chicken nuggets. Many foods require turning over during cooking (see chart).

The Browning Pan will become very hot. Use the handle to grasp and remove the pan from the oven. Do not place hot Browning Pan directly on heat-sensitive surfaces. Damage may occur. Do not use plastic utensils on the pan, as it becomes very hot quickly and could melt the utensils. Do not use metal utensils, as they can scratch the pan. Do not use the pan in any other microwave oven or in a thermal oven. Always use the turntable as a support for the pan. For best results, coat pan lightly with cooking oil to make removing food and cleaning easier.
