Combination Auto Roast
Auto Roast is a combination
function which is similar to
combination temperature
cooking, using both microwave
and convection cooking
in
conjunction with the temperature
probe. However, the Auto Roast
feature eliminates most of the
steps necessary to program
combination temperature
cooking. Instead, you can set
the entire cooking program by
selecting just one Auto Roast code.
The food is placed in a glass dish
on a trivet for cooking during
Auto
Roast. To select a code from 1
to 8 see Auto Roast Guide on this
page.

Questions and Answers
Q. Usually my temperature probe
gives very accurate
resulk, but this
time it didn’t. What happened?
A. If the temperature probe is
positioned touching fat or bone, an
inaccurate reading may result. Be
sure to place the probe in solid
muscle, usually the thickest, meatiest
part of the roast or poultry, or in the
center of a meat loaf or casserole.
Q. Meats often take longer than
indicated in the guides to reach
the desired internal temperature.
Why?
A.
If the meat is recently defrosted
and still very cold or icy inside, it
will require a longer cooking time
than meat which has been merely
refrigerated. Times shown in the
guides are usually for meats that
are refrigerator temperature.

A.
You may want to let meats stand
briefly, to allow easier carving and
serving. Most meat roasts continue
to cook for a few minutes after
removing from the oven. Check the
cookbook for specific instructions.
