SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING MICROWAVE-SAFE COOKWARE
Make sure to use suitable cookware during microwave
cooking. Most glass casseroles, cooking dishes,
measuring cups, custard cups, pottery or china
dinnerware which does not have metallic trim or glaze
with a metallic sheen can be used. Some cookware is
labeled “suitable for microwaving.”
■ Placefoodormicrowavablecontainerdirectlyon
the clear glass tray to cook your food.
■ Useofthenon-stickmetaltrayduringmicrowave
cooking will result in inferior cooking performance.
■ Cookwaremaybecomehotbecauseofheat
transferred from the heated food. Oven mitts may
be needed to handle the cookware.
■ Donotuserecycledpaperproducts.Recycled
paper towels, napkins and waxed paper may
contain metal flecks which could cause arcing or
ignite. Paper products containing nylon or nylon
filaments should be avoided, as they may also
ignite.
■ Usefoilonlyasdirectedinthismanual.Whenusing
foilintheoven,keepthefoilatleast1″awayfrom
the sides of the oven.
■ Ifyouuseameatthermometerwhilecooking,make
sure it is safe for use in microwave ovens.
■ Somefoamtrays(likethosethatmeatispackaged
on) have a thin strip of metal embedded in the
bottom. When microwaved, the metal can burn the
floor of the oven or ignite a paper towel.
■ Papertowels,waxedpaperandplasticwrapcanbe
used to cover dishes in order to retain moisture and
prevent spattering. Be sure to vent plastic wrap so
steam can escape.
■ Notallplasticwrapissuitableforuseinmicrowave
ovens. Check the package for proper use.
■ “Boilable”cookingpouchesandtightlyclosedplastic
bags should be slit, pierced or vented as directed by
package. If they are not, plastic could burst during
or immediately after cooking, possibly resulting in
injury. Also, plastic storage containers should be at
least partially uncovered because they form a tight
seal. When cooking with containers tightly covered
with plastic wrap, remove covering carefully and
direct steam away from hands and face.
■ Plasticcookware—Plasticcookwaredesignedfor
microwave cooking is very useful, but should be
used carefully. Even microwave-safe plastic may
not be as tolerant of overcooking conditions as are
glass or ceramic materials and may soften or char if
subjected to short periods of overcooking. In longer
exposures to overcooking, the food and cookware
could ignite.
■ Donotusethewireovenrackformicrowaving.
Followtheseguidelines:
1. Use microwave-safe plastics only and use them in
strict compliance with the cookware manufacturer’s
recommendations.
2. Do not microwave empty containers.
3. Do not permit children to use plastic cookware
without complete supervision.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
This appliance 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.
Thisapplianceisequippedwithapowercordhavinga
grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded.
Consultaqualifiedelectricianorservicetechnicianif
the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is
your personal responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the
third(ground)prongfromthepowercord.
Do not use an extension cord. If the power cord is too
short,haveaqualifiedelectricianorservicetechnician
install an outlet near the appliance.
Forbestoperation,plugthisapplianceintoitsown
electrical outlet to prevent flickering of lights, blowing
of fuse or tripping of circuit breaker.
Ensure proper
ground exists
before use.

BAKING AND ROASTING
Baking and Roasting
Baking allows you to cook foods the same way as a
conventional oven, using a heating element to raise
the temperature of the air inside the oven. Any oven
temperaturefrom250°Fto450°Fmaybeset.
A fan gently circulates heated air throughout the oven,
over and around the food. Because the heated air is kept
constantly moving, not permitting a layer of cooler air to
develop around the food, some foods cook slightly faster
than in regular oven cooking.
Before you begin, make sure the turntable is in place.
WARNING When baking, remember that the
oven, door and dishes will be very hot!
The turntable must
always be in place when
using the oven.

Sensor Cooking Cookware
The proper containers and covers are essential for best
sensor cooking.
■Alwaysusemicrowave-safecontainersandcoverthem
with lids or vented plastic wrap. Never use tight sealing
plastic containers—they can prevent steam from
escaping and cause food to overcook.
■Besuretheoutsideofthecookingcontainersand
the inside of the oven are dry before placing food in
the oven. Beads of moisture turning into steam can
mislead the sensor.
■Beveragesarebestheateduncovered.
Sensor Cooking
Some microwave modes feature sensor cooking. The
oven automatically senses when food is done and shuts
itself off - eliminating the need to program cook times
and power levels. The oven automatically adjusts the
cooking time to various types and amounts of food.
1. Press theAUTOCOOKpadandturnthedialto
COOKBYFOODTYPEorREHEAT.Pressthedial
to enter.
2. Turn the dial to select the food you want. Press the
dial to enter.
3. Press the dial or press the START/ PAUSE pad to
start cooking.
Do not open the oven door until time is counting down
in the display. If the door is opened, close it and press
START/PAUSE immediately. If the food is not done
enough,useCOOKBYTIMEinthemicrowaveselector
to cook for more time.
NOTE: Do not use the sensor features twice in
succession on the same food portion—it may result
in severely overcooked or burnt food. If food is
undercookedafterthefirstcountdown,useCOOKBY
TIME for additional cooking time.
NOTE: If the oven is too hot then it will automatically
change to time cooking.
■ Toshortenorlengthenthecooktime,waituntilthe

Care and Cleaning
CARE AND CLEANING
Helpful Hints
An occasional thorough wiping with a solution of baking
soda and water keeps the inside fresh.
Be certain the oven control is turned off before
cleaning any part of this oven.
Inside
Clean the inside of the oven often for proper heating
performance.
Some spatters can be removed with a paper towel,
othersmayrequireawarmsoapycloth.Removegreasy
spatters with a sudsy cloth, then rinse with a damp cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or sharp utensils on oven
walls.
Never use a commercial oven cleaner on any part of
your oven.
Do not clean the inside of the oven with metal scouring
pads. Pieces can break off the pad, causing electrical
shock.
Removable Turntable
The area underneath the turntable should be cleaned
frequentlytoavoidodorsandsmokingduringacooking
cycle.
The turntable can be broken if dropped. Wash carefully
in warm, sudsy water. Dry completely and replace.
To replace the turntable, place its center over the
spindle in the center of the oven and turn it until it seats
intoplace.(Makesurethesmoothsideoftheturntable
is facing up and that its center seats securely on the
spindle.)
Cooking Trays and Baking Sheet
To prevent breakage, allow the trays to cool completely
before cleaning. Wash carefully in warm, sudsy water or
in the dishwasher.
Do not use metal scouring pads or abrasives, as they
may damage the finish. A soap-filled scouring pad may
be used to clean the trays.
Walls,Floor,InsideWindow,Metal
and Plastic Parts on the Door
Do not use the oven without
the turntable in place.

Outside
We recommend against using cleaners with ammonia
or alcohol, as they can damage the appearance of
the oven. If you choose to use a common household
cleaner, first apply the cleaner directly to a clean cloth,
then wipe the soiled area.
Case
Clean the outside with a sudsy cloth. Rinse and then dry.
Wipe the window clean with a damp cloth.
Glass Control Panel and Door
Wipe with a clean damp sponge. Dry thoroughly. Do not
use cleaning sprays, large amounts of soap and water,
abrasives or sharp objects on the panel—they can
damage it.
Door Seal
It’s important to keep the area clean where the door
seals against the oven. Use only mild, non-abrasive
detergents applied with a clean sponge or soft cloth.
Rinse well.
Stainless Steel (onsomemodels)
To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy
water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always
wipethesurfaceinthedirectionofthegrain.Follow
the cleaner instructions for cleaning the stainless steel
surface.
