    Contents Introduction: The benefits of the microwave oven .....32-33 Microwave automatic functions ......34 Automatic weight defrosting .
  • Page 34: The Benefits Of The Microwave Oven

    The benefits of the microwave oven For many foods, the microwave oven is the quickest and healthiest method of cooking. Since the microwaves act directly on the food (the food container hardly becomes hot and the inside of the microwave stays cool), the microwave oven is also very energy efficient.
  • Page 35 If you wish to use your microwave in manual mode, all you need do is choose the power level (e.g. full power = 1000 watts), state the cooking time and push the Start button. The power levels available on the Panasonic combination microwave oven are as follows: 1000 watts...
  • Page 36: Microwave Automatic Functions

    Microwave automatic functions As well as manual operation, when the power level must be selected (e.g. 1000 watts), if applicable, the method of operation (e.g. "Grill") and a cooking time, the microwave has various automatic functions, which dispense with the need to select the power level, temperature and time.
  • Page 37: Automatic Weight Defrosting

    - poultry, game, fish. TIP: Food which is not suitable for automatic weight defrosting can nonetheless be defrosted with the Panasonic combination microwave oven. The charts on pages 74- 83 therefore give the necessary defrost power levels and times which must be selected manually.
  • Page 38: Using The Fan Oven

    Accessories: Using the grill When using the grill, the door of the Panasonic combination microwave oven must remain closed. This reduces cooking odours and the consumption of electricity. When it is in operation, the heating element inside the oven generates a powerful heat.
  • Page 39: Using The Grill With Fan Oven

    Using the grill with the fan oven In this operating mode, the hot air produced by the heating element is fanned by the fan attached to the back of the microwave. For grilling, use the high rack on the turntable. In theory, no preheating is necessa- ry, which will reduce the consumption of electricity accordingly.
