IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• The microwave oven should be serviced only by
qualified service personnel. Call an authorized
service company for examination, repair, or
adjustment.
• See door surface cleaning instructions in the "Caring
for Your Microwave Oven" section.
• To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
- Do not overcook food. Carefully attend the
microwave oven when paper, plastic, or other
combustible materials are placed inside the oven to
facilitate cooking.

• Do not store anything directly on top of the
microwave oven when the microwave oven is in
operation.
• Do not cover or block any openings on the
microwave oven.
• Do not store this microwave oven outdoors. Do not
use the microwave oven near water - for example,
near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, near a
swimming pool, or similar location.
• Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
• Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

- Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags
before placing bags in oven.

• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
• Do not mount over a sink.

- If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven door
closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the power
cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker
panel.

• Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with
metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.

- Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not
leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in
the cavity when not in use.
• Suitable for use above both gas and electric cooking
equipment.
• Intended to be used above ranges with maximum
width of 36 inches (9t cm).
• Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently -Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.
• When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
• Use care when cleaning the vent-hood filter.
Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based oven
cleaners, may damage the filter.
• Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should
not be inserted in the microwave oven as they may
create a fire or risk of electric shock.

• Liquids such as water, coffee, or tea are able to
be overheated beyond the boiling point without
appearing to be boiling due to surface tension of
the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling when the
container is removed from the microwave oven is
not always present. This could result in very hot
liquids suddenly boiling over when a spoon or
other utensil is inserted into the liquid. To reduce
the risk of injury to persons;
1) Do not overheat the liquid.
2) Stir the liquid both before and halfway through
heating it.
3) Do not use straight-sided containers with
narrow necks.
4) After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before
removing the container.
5) Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or
other utensil into the container.

• Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can
burn off the pad and touch electrical parts involving a
risk of electric shock.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE
EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE
ENERGY
(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.

Electrical
requirements
Observe all governing codes and
ordinances. A 120 Volt, 60 Hz, AC only,
15 or 20 amp fused electrical supply is
required. (A time-delay fuse is recommended.)
It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this appliance be provided.

GROUNDING
• For all cord connected appliances:
The microwave oven must be grounded.
In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. The microwave oven is
equipped with a cord having a grounding
wire with a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
WARNING:
Improper use of the
grounding can result in a risk of electric
shock.

(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.

Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong
outlet. Do not remove ground
prong. Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these
instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.

INSTRUCTIONS
Do not use an extension cord. If the power
supply cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or serviceman install an outlet
near the microwave oven.
• For a permanently
connected appliance:
The microwave oven must be connected
to a grounded, metallic, permanent wiring
system, or an equipment grounding
conductor should be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the
equipment grounding
the microwave oven.

terminal or lead on

Consult a qualified electrician or
serviceman if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the microwave oven
is properly grounded.

Getting to Know Your
Microwave Oven
This section discusses the concepts behind microwave cooking. It also shows you the
basics you need to know to operate your microwave oven. Please read this information
use your oven.

How your microwave oven works
Microwave ovens are safe. Microwave energy is not hot. It
causes food to make its own heat, and it's this heat that cooks
the food.

Magqetron
j_

Microwaves are like TV waves, radio waves, or light waves. You
cannot see them, but you can see what they do.
A magnetron in the microwave oven produces microwaves. The
microwaves move into the oven where they contact food as it
turns on the turntable.
The glass turntable of your microwave oven lets microwaves
pass through. Then they bounce off a metal floor, back through
the glass turntable, and are absorbed by the food.

Oven cavity
Metal floor

Glass turntable

Microwaves pass through most glass, paper, and plastics
without heating them so food absorbs the energy. Microwaves bounce off metal containers so food does not
absorb the energy.

Radio interference
Using your microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV, or similar equipment. When there is
interference, you can reduce it or remove it by:
• Cleaning the door and sealing surfaces of the oven.
• Adjusting

the receiving antenna of the radio or television.

• Moving the receiver away from the microwave oven.
• Plugging the microwave oven into a different outlet so that the microwave oven and receiver are on
different branch circuits.

For the best cooking results
• Always cook food for the shortest cooking time recommended. Check to see how the food is cooking. If
needed, touch Add Minute while the oven is operating or after the cooking cycle is over (see the "Using
add minute" section).
• Stir, turn over, or rearrange the food being cooked about halfway through the cooking time for all recipes.
This will help make sure the food is evenly cooked.
• If you do not have a cover for a dish, use wax paper, or microwave-approved paper towels or plastic
wrap. Remember to turn back a corner of the plastic wrap to vent steam during cooking.

Testing your microwave oven
To test the oven put about 1 cup of cold water in a glass container in the oven. Close the door. Make sure it
latches. Cook at 100% power for 1 minute. When the time is up, the water should be heated.

Testing your dinnerware or cookware
Test dinnerware or cookware before using. To test a dish for safe use, put it into the oven with a cup of
water beside it. Cook at 100% cook power for one minute. If the dish gets hot, do not use it.
Some dishes (melamine, some ceramic dinnerware, etc.) absorb microwave energy, becoming too hot to
handle and slowing cooking times. Cooking in metal containers not designed for microwave use could damage
the oven, as could containers with hidden metal (twist-ties, foil lining, staples, metallic glaze or trim).

Operating

safety precautions

• Never lean on the door or allow a child to swing on it when the door is open.
• Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not heat containers, but the heat from the food can make the
container hot.
• Do not use newspaper or other printed paper in the oven.
• Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, paper, gourds, or clothes in the oven.
• Do not start a microwave oven when it is empty. Product life may be shortened, tf you practice programming
the oven, put a container of water in the oven. It is normal for the oven door to look wavy after the oven has
been running for a while.
• Do not try to melt paraffin wax in the oven. Paraffin wax will not melt in a microwave oven because it allows
microwaves to pass through it.
• Do not operate the microwave oven unless the glass turntable is securely in place and can rotate freely. The
turntable can rotate in either direction. Make sure the turntable is correct-side up in the oven. Handle your
turntable with care when removing it from the oven to avoid possibly breaking it. If your turntable cracks or
breaks, contact your dealer for a replacement.
• When you use a browning dish, the browning dish bottom must be at least 3/16 inch above the turntable.
Follow the directions supplied with the browning dish.
• Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst,
and possibly damage the oven. Slice hard-boiled eggs before heating, tn rare cases, poached eggs have
been known to explode. Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time of one minute before cutting into
them.
• For best results, stir any liquid several times during heating or reheating. Liquids heated in certain
containers (especially containers shaped like cylinders) may become overheated. The liquid may splash out
with a loud noise during or after heating or when adding ingredients (coffee granules, tea bags, etc.). This can
harm the oven.
• Microwaves may not reach the center of a roast. The heat spreads to the center from the outer, cooked
areas just as in regular oven cooking. This is one of the reasons for lettingsome foods (for example, roasts or
baked potatoes) stand for a while after cooking, or for stirring some foods during the cooking time.
• Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable utensils are not suitable and it is difficult to maintain appropriate
deep-frying temperatures.
• Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended cooking time, potatoes should be slightly firm
because they will continue cooking during standing time. After microwaving, let potatoes stand for 5
minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.

You are probably used to food weights as being in
pounds and ounces that are fractions of a pound (for
example, 4 ounces equals 1/4 pound). However, in
order to enter food weight in Auto Defrost, you must
specify pounds and tenths of a pound.
If the weight on the food package is in fractions of a
pound, you can use the following table to convert the
weight to decimals.

NOTE:
When you touch the START pad, the display changes
to defrost time count down. The oven will beep during
the DEFROST cycle. At this time, open the door and
turn, separate, or rearrange the food.
Remove any portions that have thawed.
Return frozen portions to the oven and touch
START to resume the defrost cycle.

OPERATING

TIPS

• For best results, remove fish, shellfish, meat, and
poultry from its original closed paper or plastic
package (wrapper). Otherwise, the wrap will hold
steam and juice close to the foods, which can cause
the outer surface of the foods to cook.
• For best results, shape your ground meat into the
form of a doughnut before freezing. When defrosting,
scrape off thawed meat when the beep sounds and
continue defrosting.
• Place foods in a shallow container or on a microwave
roasting rack to catch drippings.

DEFROSTING

TIPS

• When using Auto Defrost, the weight to be entered
is the net weight in pounds and tenths of pounds
(the weight of the food minus the container).
• Before starting, make sure you have removed any
of the metal twist-ties which often come with frozen
food bags, and replace them with strings or elastic
bands.

HOLD WARM
You can safely keep hot, cooked food warm in your
microwave oven for up to 99 minutes, 99 seconds
(about 1 hour, 40 minutes). You can use Hold Warm
by itself, or to automatically follow a cooking cycle.
Example: To use the hold warm.

Touch:

• Open containers such as cartons before they are
placed in the oven.

Display Shows:
FIIn
T1-1111

I_111I1\1

....

• Always slit or pierce plastic pouches or packaging.
• If food is foil wrapped, remove foil and place it in a
suitable container.
• Slit the skins, if any, of frozen food such as
sausage.
• Bend plastic pouches of food to ensure even
defrosting.
• Always underestimate defrosting time. If defrosted
food is still icy in the center, return it to the
microwave oven for more defrosting.
• The length of defrosting time varies according to
how solidly the food is frozen.
• The shape of the package affects how quickly food
will defrost. Shallow packages will defrost more
quickly than a deep block.
• As food begins to defrost, separate the pieces.
Separated pieces defrost more easily.
• Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts
of food such as chicken wings, leg tips, fish tails, or
areas that start to get warm. Make sure the foil does
not touch the sides, top, or bottom of the oven. The
foil can damage the oven lining.
• For better results, let food stand after defrosting.
(For more information on standing time, see the
"Microwave Cooking Tips" section.)
• Turn over food during defrosting or standing time.
Break apart and remove food as required.

"_TAR_ ,

FIIn

scrolls across display.
At the end of the hold warm, "END" will be
displayed and four tones will sound.

To make Hold Warm
automatically follow another cycle:
• While you are touching in cooking instructions,
touch Hold Warm before touching START.
• When the last cooking cycle is over, you will hear
two tones. "Hold Warm" will come on while the oven
continues to run.
• You can set Hold Warm to follow Auto Defrost,
Cook, or multi-cycle cooking.
NOTES:
• Hold Warm operates for up to 99 minutes, 99
seconds.
• Opening the oven door cancels Hold Warm. Close
the door and touch Hold Warm, then touch
START if additional Hold Warm time is desired.
• Food cooked covered should be covered during
Hold Warm.
• Pastry items (pies, turnovers, etc.) should be
uncovered during Hold Warm.
• Complete meals kept warm on a dinner plate should
be covered during Hold Warm.
• Do not use more than one complete Hold Warm
cycle (about 1 hour, 40 minutes). The quality of
some foods will suffer with extended time.

Using Sensor Cooking
SENSOR

COOKING

SENSOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Sensor Cook allows you to cook most of your favorite
foods without selecting cooking times and power
levels. The oven automatically determines required
cooking time for each food item. When the internal
sensor detects a certain amount of humidity coming
from the food, it will tell the oven how much longer to
heat. The display will show the remaining heating
time. For best results by Sensor, following these
recommendations.

POTATO (EXAMPLE)
Sensor cook allows you to cook most of your
favorite foods without selecting cooking times and
power levels.
Example: To cook potato.

Touch:
1.

Display Shows:
Time of day.

• Food cooked with the sensor system should be at
normal storage temperature.
• Glass Tray and outside of container should be dry
to assure best cooking results.
• Foods should always be covered loosely with
microwavable plastic wrap, waxed paper or a lid.
• Do not open the door or touch the "STOP/Clear"
key during the sensing time. When sensing time is
over, the oven beeps twice and the remaining
cooking time will appear in the display window. At
this time you can open the door to stir, turn or
rearrange the food.

SENSOR

COOKING

GUIDE

Appropriate containers and coverings help assure
good Sensor cooking results.
• Always use microwavable containers and cover
them with lids or vented plastic wrap.
• Never use tight-sealing plastic covers. They can
prevent steam from escaping and cause food to
overcook.
• Match the amount to the size of the container.
Fill containers at least half full for best results.
• Be sure the outside of the cooking container and
the inside of the microwave oven are dry before
placing food in the oven. Beads of moisture turning
into steam can mislead the sensor.

Caring for Your Microwave Oven
To make sure your microwave oven looks good and works well for a long time, you should
maintain it properly. For proper care, please follow these instructions carefully.

For interior surfaces: Wash often with warm, sudsy
water and a sponge or
soft cloth.
Use only mild,
nonabrasive soaps or a
mild detergent. Be sure
to keep the areas clean
where the door and
oven frame touch
when closed. Wipe well
with clean cloth.
Over time, stains can occur on the surfaces as the
result of food particles spattering during cooking. This
is normal.
For stubborn soil, boil a cup of water in the oven for 2
to 3 minutes. Steam will
soften the soil. To get rid
of odors inside the oven,
boil a cup of water with
some lemon juice or
vinegar in it.

For exterior surfaces and control panel: Use a soft
cloth with spray glass

glass cleaner to the soft
cloth; do Apply
not spray
cleaner.
the spray
directly on the oven.
NOTE: Abrasive

cleansers, steel wool
pads, gritty wash
cloths, some paper
towels, etc., can damage the control panel and the interior and exterior
oven surfaces.

To clean turntable and turntable support, wash in
mild, sudsy water; for
Glass turntable
heavily soiled areas use
a mild cleanser and
scouring sponge. The
turntable and turntable
support are dishwasher
safe.

MICROWAVE COOKING TIPS
Amount of food

Releasing pressure in foods

• If you increase or decrease the amount of food
you prepare, the time it takes to cook that food will
also change. For example, if you double a recipe,
add a little more than half the original cooking time.
Check for doneness and, if necessary, add more
time in small increments.

• Several foods (for example: baked potatoes,
sausages, egg yolks, and some fruits) are tightly
covered by a skin or membrane. Steam can build up
under the membrane during cooking, causing the
food to burst. To relieve the pressure and to prevent
bursting, pierce these foods before cooking with a
fork, cocktail pick, or toothpick.

Starting temperature of food
• The lower the temperature of the food being put
into the microwave oven, the longer it takes to cook.
Food at room temperature will be re-heated more
quickly than food at refrigerator temperature.

Using standing time
• Always allow food to stand after cooking.
Standing time after defrosting and cooking allows
the temperature to evenly spread throughout the
food, improving the cooking results.

Composition of food
• Food
faster
sugar
water

with a lot of fat and sugar will be heated
than food containing a lot of water. Fat and
will also reach a higher temperature than
in the cooking process.

• The length of the standing time depends on how
much food you are cooking and how dense it is.
Sometimes it can be as short as the time it takes
you to remove the food from the oven and take it to
the serving table. However, with larger, denser food,
the standing time may be as long as 10 minutes.

• The more dense the food, the longer it takes to
heat. "Very dense" food like meat takes longer to
heat than lighter, more porous food like sponge
cakes.

Arranging food

Size and shape

For best results, place food evenly on the plate. You
can do this in several ways:

• Smaller pieces of food will cook faster than larger
pieces. Also, same shaped pieces cook more
evenly than different-shaped pieces.

• If you are cooking several items of the same
food, such as baked potatoes, place them in a ring
pattern for uniform cooking.

• With foods that have different thicknesses, the
thinner parts will cook faster than the thicker parts.
Place the thinner parts of chicken wings and legs in
the center of the dish.

• When cooking foods of uneven shapes or
thickness, such as chicken breasts, place the
smaller or thinner area of the food towards the
center of the dish where it will be heated last.
• Layer thin slices of meat on top of each other.

Stirring, turning foods
• Stirring and turning foods spreads heat quickly to
the center of the dish and avoids overcooking at the
outer edges of the food.

• When you cook or reheat whole fish, score the
skin - this prevents cracking.
• Do not let food or a container touch the top or sides
of the oven. This will prevent possible arcing.

Covering food

Using aluminum foil

Cover food to:
• Reduce splattering
• Shorten cooking times
• Keep food moist

Metal containers should not be used in a microwave

You can use any covering that lets microwaves pass
through. See "Getting to Know Your Microwave
Oven" for materials that microwaves will pass
through. If you are using the Sensor function, be sure
to vent.

oven. There are, however, some exceptions. If you
have purchased food which is prepackaged in an
aluminum foil container, refer to the instructions on
the package. When using aluminum foil containers,
cooking times may be longer because microwaves
will only penetrate the top of the food. If you use
aluminum containers without package instructions,
follow these guidelines:

MICROWAVE

COOKING

Using aluminum

TIPS (CONT.)

foil (cont.)

Removing

the rack

• Place the container in a glass bowl and add some
water so that it covers the bottom of the container,
not more than 1/4 in. (.64 cm) high. This ensures
even heating of the container bottom.

• When popping commercially packaged popcorn,
Remove the rack from the oven; Do not place the
bag of microwave popcorn on the rack or under the
rack.

• Always remove the lid to avoid damage to the
oven.

• In the case of popping microwave popcorn with
rack, that can cause the fire or damage to your
microwave oven.

• Use only undamaged containers.
• Do not use containers taller than 3/4 in. (1.9 cm).
• Container must be at least half filled.
• To avoid arcing, there must be a minimum 1/4 in.
(.64 cm) between the aluminum container and the
walls of the oven and also between two aluminum
containers.
• Always place the container on the turntable.
• Shield with small pieces of aluminum foil, parts of
food that may cook quickly, such as wing tips and
leg ends of poultry.
• Heating food in aluminum foil containers usually
takes up to double the time compared to reheating
in plastic, glass, china, or paper containers.
The time when food is ready will vary depending
upon the type of container you use.
• Let food stand for 2 to 3 minutes after heating so
that heat is spread evenly throughout container.

Cooking you should not do in your
microwave oven
• Do not do canning of foods in the oven. Closed
glass jars may explode, resulting in damage to the
oven.

• Do not use the microwave oven to sterilize objects
(baby bottles, etc.). It is difficult to keep the oven at
the high temperature needed for sterilization.

Questions and Answers
QUESTIONS

ANSWERS

Can I operate my microwave oven without the
turntable or turn the turntable over to hold a large
dish?

No. If you remove or tum over the tumtable, you
will get poor cooking results. Dishes used in
your oven must fit on the turntable.

Can I use either metal or aluminum pans in my
microwave oven?

You can use aluminum foil for shielding (use
small, fiat pieces), small skewers, and shallow
foil trays (if tray is not taller than 3/4 in. [1.9 cm]
deep and is filled with food to absorb microwave
energy). Never allow metal to touch walls or
door.

Is it normal for the turntable to turn in either direction?

Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, depending on the rotation of the
motor when the cooking cycle begins.

Sometimes the door of my microwave oven appears
wavy. Is this normal?

This appearance is normal and does not affect
the operation of your oven.

What are the humming noises that I hear when my
microwave oven is operating?

You may hear the sound of the transformer
when the magnetron tube cycles on.

Why does the dish become hot when t microwave
food in it? I thought that this should not happen.

As the food becomes hot it will conduct the heat
to the dish. Be prepared to use hot pads to
remove food after cooking.

What does "standing time" mean?

"Standing time" means that food should be
removed from the oven and covered for
additional time to allow it to finish cooking. This
frees the oven for other cooking.

Why does steam come out of the air exhaust vent?

Steam is normally produced during cooking. The
microwave oven has been designed to vent this
steam out the vents.

Can 1pop popcorn in my microwave oven?
How do I get the best results?

Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn
following manufacturer's guidelines. Do not use
regular paper bags.
Do not repop unpopped kernels. Do not pop
popcorn in glass cookware.
