ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN

This Use and Care Manual is valuable: read it carefully and

always save it for reference.

A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it for

microwave cooking principles, techniques, hints and recipes.

NEVER use the microwave oven without the turntable and

support nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could

be placed in the microwave oven. The turntable will turn both

clockwise and counterclockwise. See page 26 for complete

instructions.

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

absorb the microwave energy.

When using the microwave oven at power levels below 100%,

you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal

for the exterior of the microwave oven to be warm to the touch

when cooking or reheating.

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 microwave oven. Generally,

covered foods will not cause as much condensation as

uncovered ones. Ventilation openings must not be blocked.

The microwave oven is for food preparation only. It should not

be used to dry clothes or newspapers.

Your microwave oven is rated 1000 watts by using the IEC

Test Procedure. In using recipes or package directions, check

food a minute or two before the minimum time and add time

accordi ngly.

ABOUT FOOD

ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING

• Arrange food carefully. Placethickest areas towards outside of dish.

• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of

time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely

overcooked can smoke or ignite.

• 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.

• 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.

• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during

cooking, if possible.

• 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.

• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking

both from top to bottom and from the center of the dish to

the outside.

• Add standing time. Remove food from microwave oven and

stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which allows the food

to finish cooking without overcooking.

• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking

temperatures have been reached.

Doneness signs indude:

- Food steams throughout, not just at edge.

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

- Poultry thigh join% move easily.

- Meat and poultry show no pinkness.

- Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

FOOD DO DON'T

Eggs, • Puncture egg yolks before cooking to prevent • Cook eggs in shells.

sausages, "explosion". • Reheat whole eggs.

nuts, seeds, • Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, squash, hot dogs • Dry nuts or seeds in shells.

fruits & and sausages so that steam escapes.

vegetables

Popcorn • Use specially bagged popcorn for microwave cooking.

• Listen while popping corn for the popping to slow

to 1 or 2 seconds or use special popcorn pad.

• Pop popcorn in regular brown bags or glass bowls.

• Exceed maximum time on popcorn package.

Baby food • Transfer baby food to small dish and heat carefully,

stirring often. Check temperature before serving.

• Put nipples on bottles after heating and shake

thoroughly. "Wrist" test before feeding.

• Heat disposable bottles.

• Heat bottles with nipples on.

• Heat baby food in original jars.

General • Cut baked goods with filling after heating to release

steam and avoid burns.

• Stir liquids briskly before and after heating to avoid

"eruption".

• Use deep bowl, when cooking liquids or cereals, to

prevent boilovers.

• Heat or cook in closed glass jars or air tight

containers.

• Can in the microwave as harmful bacteria may not

be destroyed.

• Deep fat fry.

• Dry wood, gourds, herbs or wet papers.

ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS

It is not necessaryto 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.

Use these utensils for safe microwave

cooking and reheating:

*glass ceramic (Pyroceram®), such as Corningware ®.

*heat-resistant glass (Pyrex ®)

*microwave-safe plastics

*paper plates

*microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain

*browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheating time.

Follow manufacturer's directions.)

These items can be used for short time reheating

of foods that have little fat or sugar in them:

•wood, straw, wicker

DO NOT USE

*metal pans and bakeware

*dishes with metallic trim

*non-heat-resistant glass

*non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)

*recycled paper products

*brown paper bags

*food storage bags

*metal twist-ties

Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place

the empty dish in the microwave oven and microwave on HIGH for

30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be used.

The following coverings are ideal:

*Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating and

absorbing fat while cooking bacon.

*Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.

*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.

,Microwave 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:

*Smallfiat piecesof 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 microwave 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. Electrolux is not responsible

for any damage to the microwave oven when accessories are used.

ABOUT CHILDREN AND 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.

As with any appliance, close supervision by an adult is

necessary when used by children.

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

microwave oven door.

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.

Don't assume that because a child has mastered one cooking

skill he/she can cook everything.

Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not a toy. See

page 23 for Child Lock feature.

ABOUT SAFETY

*Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States

Department of Agriculture's recommended temperatures.

TEIvlP FOOD

145°F - For beef, lamb or veal cut into steaks, chops or

(63oc) roasts, fish

160°F - For fresh pork, ground meat, seafood, egg dishes,

(71°C) frozen prepared food and beef, lamb or veal cut into

steaks, chops or roasts

165°F - For leftover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated, dell and

(74°C) carry out "fresh" food, whole chicken or turkey,

chicken or turkey breasts and ground poultry used

in chicken or turkey burgers

Do not cook whole, stuffed poultry. Cook stuffing

separately to 165°R

To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a thick

or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER leave the

thermometer in the food during cooking, unless it is approved

for microwave oven use.

*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 oven cooking bags away from the face.

*Stay near the microwave oven while it's in use and check

cooking progress frequently so that there is no chance of

overcooking food.

*NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or other items.

*Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve its high

quality and minimize the spread of foodborne bacteria.

*Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can cause arcing

and/or fires.

*Use care when removing items from the microwave oven so

that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not touch the

safety door latches.

Keep aluminum foil used for shielding at least 1 inch away

from walls, ceiling and door.

Using the Rack

The rack allows several foods to be cooked or reheated at

one time. However, for the best cooking and reheating, use

Turntable ON function and cook with SENSORCOOKING or

AUTO COOKING without the rack. When the rack is used, set

time and power level manually. Allow plenty of space around

and between the dishes. Pay close attention to the cooking

and reheating progress. Reposition the foods and reverse

them from the rack to turntable and/or stir them at least

once during any cooking or reheating time. After cookin(

or reheating, stir if possible. Using a lower power level will

assist in better cooking and reheating uniformity.

Avoid:

- Storing the rack in the microwave oven when not in

use.

- Popping popcorn with the rack in the microwave oven.

- Using any browning dish on the rack.

- Using SENSOR COOKING and AUTO COOKING with the

rack.

- Cooking directly on the rack--use microwave-safe

cookware.

Turntable on/offfunction can be used in Manual Operation.

See page 25.

You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously in 1 minute increments on power level 30% until totally

cooked, by using power level for 30% Follow the exact defrosted.

3-step procedure found under To set power level. Estimate When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost only

defrosting time and press power level pad eight times for long enough to remove from the plastic in order to place in

30% power, a microwave-safe dish.

For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the rule of

thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound. For example,

Sensor cooking has an electronic controlled sensor that

detects the vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from the

food as it heats. The sensor adjusts the cooking times and

power level for various foods and quantities automatically.

Using Sensor Settings:

1. After oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before using

Sensor Settings.

2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the

interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture with

a dry cloth or paper towel.

3. The oven works with foods at normal storage tem-

perature. For example, popcorn would be at room

temperature.

4. Any Sensor Settings selection can be programmed with

More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 24.

5. More or less food than the quantity listed in the chart

should be cooked following the guidelines in any micro-

wave cookbook.

6. During the first part of SENSORCOOKING, food name will

appear on the display. Do not open the oven door or press

the STOP clear pad during this part of the cycle. The

measurement of vapor will be interrupted. If this occurs,

an error message will appear. To continue cooking, press

the STOP clear pad and cook manually.

Z If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when pop-

ping popcorn, the oven will turn off, and the correct time

of day will be displayed. If the sensor does not detect

vapor properly when cooking other foods, ERROR will

be displayed, and the oven will turn off.

8. Check food for temperature after cooking. If additional

time is needed, continue to cook manually.

.Each food has a cooking hint. Press the user pref pad

when the HELP indicator is lighted in the display.

Covering Foods:

Some foods cook better when covered. Use the cover

recommended in the food charts.

1. Casserole lid.

Plasticwrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for microwave

cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow approximately 1/2 inch

to remain uncovered to allow steam to escape. Plastic

wrap should not touch food.

Wax paper: Cover dish completely; fold excess wrap

under dish to secure. If dish is wider than paper, overlap

two pieces at least one inch to cover.

Be careful when removing any covering to allow steam to

escape away from you.

When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the

food, remainder of cooking time will appear. Door may

be opened when remaining cooking time appears on

the display. At this time, you may stir or season food,

as desired.

EASY CARE TM STAINLESS STEEL

(SOME MODELS)

Your microwave oven finish may be made with Easy CareTM

Stainless Steel (some models). Clean the stainless with warm

soapy water using a clean sponge or cloth. Rinse with clean

water and dry with a soft clean cloth. DO NOT use ANY store

bought cleaners like Stainless Steel cleaners or any other

types of cleaners containing any abrasive, chlorides, chlorines

or ammonia. It is recommended to use mild dish soap and

water or a 50/50 solution of water and vinegar.

INTERIOR

Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the

interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting

of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, wipe

with a soft cloth and warm water. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE

OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier

soil, use baking soda or a mild soap; rinse thoroughly with

hot water. The rack can be cleaned with hot soapy water,

rinsed and dried.

ODOR REMOVAL

Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the microwave

oven. To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and juice

of 1 lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass measuring

cup. Boil for several minutes using 100% power. Allow to set in

microwave oven until cool. Wipe interior with a soft cloth.

TURNTABLE/TURNTABLE SUPPORT

The turntable and turntable support can be removed for easy

cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy water; for stubborn stains

use a mild cleanser and non-abrasive scouring sponge. They

are also dishwasher-proof. Use upper rack of dishwasher. The

turntable motor shaft is not sealed, so excess water or spills

should be wiped up immediately.

GREASE FILTERS

Filters should be cleaned at least once a month. Never operate

the fan or microwave oven without the filters in place.

1. Pull down slightly on the tab toward the front of the

microwave oven and remove the filter. Repeat for the

other filter.

Soak the filters in a sink or dish pan filled with hot water

and detergent. DO NOT use ammonia or other alkali;

they will react with the filter material and darken it.

Agitate and scrub with a brush to remove embedded

dirt.

Rinse thoroughly and shake dry.

Replace by fitting the filter back into the opening.
