PRECAUTIONS
TO AVOIDPOSSIBLE
EXPOSURETO EXCESSIVE
MICROWAVEENERGY
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open since open-door operation can
result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with
the safety interlocks.
(b) Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner
residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door close
properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) door (bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken
or loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces.
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service
personnel.

You will use the oven frequently so plan its location
for ease of use. It's wise, if possible, to have counter
space on at least one side of the oven. Allow at least 2
inches on the sides, top and at the rear of the oven for
air circulation.

Extension Cord
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has

to observe the correct electrical connection procedures.
Radio or TV interference
Should there be any interference caused by the microwave oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave oven

for the exterior of the oven to be warm to the touch
when cooking or reheating.

A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset.
Check it for microwave cooking principles, techniques,
hints and recipes.

Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking.
Room humidity and the moisture in food will influence
the amount of moisture that condenses in the oven.
Generally, covered foods will not cause as much
condensation as uncovered ones. Vents on the oven
back must not be blocked.

NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support
nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could
be placed in the oven. The turntable wilt turn both
clockwise and counterclockwise.

The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be
used to dry clothes or newspapers.

ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb

ABOUTUTENSILSAND COVERINGS
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many
pieces already in your kitchen can be used successfully in your new microwave oven. Make sure the
utensil does not touch the interior walls during cooking.

Usethese utensilsfor safe microwave cooking
and reheating:
* glass ceramic (Pyroceram_), such as
Corningware ®.
* heat-resistant

glass (Pyrex <_)

* microwave-safe

* paper plates
* microwave-safe

and

* Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave use can be used for cooking and reheating. DO NOT allow plastic wrap to touch food.
Vent so steam can escape.
* Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice
because heat is kept near the food to hasten
cooking.
* Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or
foods that need tenderizing. DO NOT use metal
twist ties. Remember to slit bag so steam can
escape.

How to use aluminum foil in your microwave
oven:
• Small flat pieces of aluminum
foil placed
smoothly on the food can be used to shield
areas that are either defrosting or cooking too
quickly.
• Foil should not come closer than one inch to any
surface of the oven.
Should you have questions about utensils or coverings,
check a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe
suggestions.
ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before
you purchase so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in determining
correct doneness and assure you that foods have
been cooked to safe temperatures.
DCS is not
responsible for any damage to the oven when accessories are used.

becomes very hot should not be used.

ABOUTCHiLDREHAHB THE MICROWAVE
Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave
oven with a supervising person very near to them.
Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person
should be in the same room.

Children should be taught all safety precautions: use
potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special
attention to packages that crisp food because they
may be extra hot.

The child must be able to reach the oven comfortably;
if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.

Don't assume that because a child has mastered one
cooking skill he/she can cook everything.

At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing
on the oven door.

Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not
a toy. See page 25 for Child Lock feature.

ABOUTMICROWAVECOOKJHG
* Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards
outside of dish.

Rearrange
foods such as meatballs
halfway
through cooking both from top to bottom and from
the center of the dish to the outside.

,, Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount
of time indicated and add more as needed. Food
severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

Add standing time. Remove food from oven and
stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which allows
the food to finish cooking without overcooking.

,, Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for suggestions:
paper towels, wax paper,
microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent
spattering and help foods to cook evenly.

Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that
cooking temperatures have been reached.
Doneness signs include:

,, Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any
thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking
before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.

- Food steams throughout, not just at edge.

,, Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice
during cooking, if possible.

- POULTRY thigh joints move easily.

,, Turn foods over once during microwaving
to
speed cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over
at least once.

- Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

- Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.

- Meat and poultry show no pinkness.

ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when
handling utensils that are in contact with hot food.
Enough heat from the food can transfer through
utensils to cause skin burns.
* Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from
the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge of
a dish's covering and carefully open popcorn and

Your oven can be programmed for 99 minutes and
99 seconds (99.99). Always enter the seconds after
the minutes, even if they are both zeros.

There are eleven preset power levels.
Using lower power levels increases the cooking time
which is recommended for foods such as cheese, milk
and long stow cooking of meats. Consult cookbook or
recipes for specific recommendations.

KEEP WARM

MULTIPLESEQUEHCECOOKING

KEEP WARM allows you to keep food warm up to 30
minutes.

Your oven can be programmed for up to 4 automatic
cooking sequences, switching from one power level
setting to another automatically.

To use, simply touch the KEEP WARM pad and enter
the appropriate time (up to 30 minutes). You can also
program KEEP WARM with manual cooking to keep
food warm continuously after cooking.

Sometimes cooking directions tell you to start on one
power level and then change to a different power
bevel. Your oven can do this automatically.
* Suppose you want to cook roast beef for 5 minutes
at 100% and then continue to cook for 30 minutes
at 50%.

DIRECTUSE
Suppose you want to keep a cup of soup warm for
15 minutes.
