IINSTALLATION
ANDGROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
1. The oven must be on a SEPARATE CIRCUIT,
No other appliance should share the circuit
with the microwave oven. If it does, the
branch circuit fuse may blow, the circuit
breaker may trip, or the food may cook slower
than the times recommended in this manual.
2. The VOLTAGE used must be the same as
specified on this microwave oven (120 V, 60
Hz). Using a higher voltage is dangerous and
may result in a fire or other incident causing
oven damage. Using a lower voltage will
cause slow cooking. Panasonic is NOT
responsible for damage resulting from the use
of the oven with other than the specified voltage.
3. The oven must be plugged into at least a 20
AMP, 120 VOLT, 60 Hz GROUNDED OUTLET.
Where a standard two-prong outlet is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the consumer to have it replaced with a

_--_

1. Operation of the microwave oven may cause
interference to your radio, TV or similar equipment.
2. When there is interference, it may be reduced or
eliminated by taking the following measures:
a. Clean door and sealing surfaces of the oven.
(See Care of Your Microwave Oven)
b. Place the radio, TV, etc. away from the
microwave oven as far as possible.
c. Use a properly installed antenna to obtain
stronger signal reception.

Instructions

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 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
plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

W;l*;nn

Roller

Ring

1. Roller Ring and oven floor should be cleaned
frequently to prevent excessive noise.
2. Roller Ring must always be used for cooking
along with Glass Tray.
3. Always replace Roller Ring and Glass Tray in
their proper positions.

Safety Precautions

Follow These Safety Precautions When Cooking
IMPORTANT
Proper cooking depends upon the power, the
time set and quantity of food. If you use a
smaller portion than recommended and cook at
the time for the recommended portion, fire can
result.
1) HOME CANNING / DRYING FOODS / SMALL
QUANTITIES OF FOODS
• Do not use your oven for home canning, your
oven cannot maintain the food at the proper canning temperature. Improperly canned food may
spoil and be dangerous to consume.
• Do not dry meats, herbs, fruits or vegetables in
your oven. Small quantities of food or foods with
low moisture content can dry out, scorch or catch
on fire if overheated.
2) POPCORN
Popcorn may be popped in a microwave oven
corn popper. Microwave popcorn which pops in
its own package is also available. Follow popcorn
manufacturers' directions and use a brand suitable for the wattage of your microwave oven.
CAUTION: When using pre=packaged
microwave popcorn, follow recommended
package instructions. Check package weight
before using the Popcorn pad (see Popcorn
Pad section). Set the oven for the weight of
the popcorn package.
If these instructions are not followed, the popcorn may not pop adequately or may ignite
and cause a fire. Never leave oven unattended when popping popcorn. Allow the popcorn bag to cool before opening, always open
the hag away from your face and body.
3} DEEP FAT FRYING
• Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave
oven. Cooking oils may burst into flames and may
cause damage to the oven and perhaps result in
burns. Microwave utensils may not be able to
withstand the temperature of the hot oil, and could
shatter or melt,
4) FOODS WITH NONPOROUS SKINS
• Potatoes, apples, egg yolks, whole eggs,
whole squash and sausages are examples of
foods with nonporous skins. These types of
foods must be pierced before microwave cooking
to prevent their bursting.
• Use fresh potatoes for baking and cook until just
done. Use recommended weiahts for croarammed
cookina. Overcookino causes dehydration and
may result in a fire.
5) LIQUIDS
• Liquids can become "superheated" in a
microwave, and when the container is moved in
any way, the superheated liquids can
"explode"
out of the container.
"Superheated" water is hotter than boiling
water, EVEN THOUGH IT DOES NOT
APPEAR TO BUBBLE. To reduce the possibility
of this occurrence:

I
in Your

Oven

Always make sure that liquids are stirred
vigorously before heating to assure that the
liquid is mixed with air. NEVER HEAT LIQUIDS
FOR AN EXCESSIVE LENGTH OF TIME.
6) GLASS TRAY / COOKING UTENSILS I FOIL
• Cooking utensils get hot during microwaving. Heat
is transferred from the HOT food to the container
and the Glass Tray. Use potholders when removing utensils from the oven or when removing lids
or plastic wrap covers from cooking utensils to
avoid burns.
• The Glass Tray will get hot during cooking. It
should be allowed to cool before handling or
before paper products, such as paper plates or
microwave popcorn bags, are placed in the oven
for microwave cooking.
• When using foil, skewers, warming rack or utensils made of metal in the oven, allow at least 1inch (2.5 cm) of space between metal material
and interior oven walls. If arcing occurs (sparking), remove metal material (skewers etc.) and/or
transfer to a non-metallic container,
• Dishes with metallic trim should not be used, as
arcing may occur.
• If an entree is heated in a foil tray, maintain at
least 1-inch (2.5 cm) spacing from the oven walls.
7) PAPER TOWELS I CLOTHS
• DO NOT use paper towels or cloths which contain
a synthetic fiber woven into them. The synthetic
fiber may cause the towel to ignite. Use paper
toweling under supervision.
8) BROWNING DISHES / OVEN COOKING BAGS
• Browning dishes or grills are designed for
microwave cooking only. Always follow instructions provided by the manufacturer. DO NOT preheat browning dish more than 6 minutes.
• It an oven cooking bag is used for microwave
cooking, prepare according to package directions.
DO NOT use a wire twist-tie to close bag, instead
use plastic ties, cotton string or a strip cut from
the open end of the bag.
9) THERMOMETERS
• DO NOT use a conventional meat thermometer in
your oven. Arcing may occur. Microwave-safe
thermometers are available for both meat and
candy.
10) BABY FORMULA/FOOD
• DO NOT heat baby formula or food in the
microwave oven. The glass jar or surface of the
food may appear warm while the interior can be
so hot as to burn the infant's mouth and esophagus.
11) REHEATING PASTRY PRODUCTS
• When reheating pastry products, check temperatures of any fillings before eating. Some foods
have fillings which heat faster and can be
extremely hot, while the surface remains warm to
the touch (ex. Jelly Donuts).
12) GENERAL OVEN USAGE GUIDELINES
• DO NOT use the oven for any reason other than
the preparation of food.
= DO NOT leave oven unattended while in use.

Defrosting Tips & Techniques

Before Freezinq:
1. Freeze meats, poultry and fish in packages with only 1 or 2 layers of food. Place wax paper between
layers.
2. Package in heavy-duty plastic wraps, bags (labeled "For Freezer") or freezer paper.
3. Remove as much air as possible, i,e. create a vacuum,
4. Seal securely, date and label.

To Defrost:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5,
6.
7.

Remove wrapper. This helps moisture to evaporate. Juices from food can get hot and cock the food.
Set food on microwave safe roasting rack in an appropriately sized dish,
Place roasts fat-side down. Place who_e poultry breast*side down.
Drain liquids during defrosting.
Turn over (invert) items during defrosting.
Shield edges and ends if needed. (See Cooking Techniques),
Select power and minimum time so that items will be under-defrosted.

After Defrosting:
1.

Large items may be icy in the center. Defrosting will complete during STANDING TIME.
Let stand, covered with plastic wrap, in the refrigerator for time shown in the chart below.
See chart below for standing time and rinsing directions.
Items which have been layered should be rinsed separately or have a longer stand time.

Food Characteristics

Bone and Fat

Cooking

Techniques

Piercing

Both bone and fat affect cooking. Bones may
cause irregular cooking, Meat next to the tips of
bones may overcook while meat positioned under
a large bone, such as a ham bone, may be
undercooked. Large amounts of fat absorb
microwave energy and the meat nexl to these
areas may overcook

Density
Porous, airy foods such as breads, cakes or roils
take less time to cook than heavy, dense foods
such as potatoes and roasts. When reheating
donuts or other foods with different centers be
very careful. Certain foods have centers made
with sugar, water or fat and these centers attract
microwaves (For ex., jelly donuts). When a jelly
donut is heated, the jelly can become extremely
hot while the exterior remains warm to the touch.
This could result in a burn if the food is not
allowed to cool properly in the center.

Foods with skins or membranes must be pierced,
scored or have a strip of skin peeled before cook_ngto allow steam to escape. Pierce whole egg
yolks and whites, clams, oysters, chicken livers,
whole potatoes and whole vegetables. Whole
apples or new potatoes should have a 1-inch strip
of skin peeled before cooking Score sausages
and frankfurters.

Quantity
Two potatoes take longer to cook than one potato. AS the quantity of the food increases so does
the cooking time. When cooking small amounts of
food such as one or two potatoes, do not leave
oven unattended. The moisture content in the
food may decrease and a fire could result.

Browning

Shape
Uniform sizes heat more evenly. The thin end of a
drumstick will cook more quickly than the meaty
end. To compensate for irregular shapes, place
thin parts toward the center of the dish and thick
pieces toward the edge.

Size
Thin pieces cook more quickly than thick pieces

Starting

Temperature

Foods that are room temperature take less time
to cook than if they are chilled or refrigerated or
frozen.
Foods will not have the same brown appearance
as conventionally cooked foods or those foods
which are cooked utilizing a browning feature,
Meats and poultry may be coated with browning
sauce, Worcestershire sauce, barbecue sauce or
shake-on browning sauce. To use, combine
browning sauce with melted butter or margarine;
brush on before cooking.
For quick breads or muffins, brown sugar can be
used in the recipe in place of granulated sugar, or
the surface can be sprinkled with dark spices
before baking

Cooking Techniques

Spacing

Shielding
Thin areas of meat and poultry cook more quickly
than meaty pottions. To prevent overcooking,
these thin areas can be shielded with strips of
aluminum foil. Wooden toothpicks may be used to
hold the foi! in ptace.

Timing
A range in cooking time is given in each recipe
The time range compensates for the uncontrollable differences in food shapes, starting temperature and regional preferences Always cook food
for the minimum cooking time given in a recipe
and check for doneness. If the food is undercooked, continue cooking. It is easier to add time
to an undercooked product. Once the food is
overcooked, nothing can be done.

Stirring

Individual foods, such as baked potatoes, cupcakes and appetizers, will cook more evenly if
placed in the oven equal distances apart When
possible, arrange foods in a circular pattern.

Stirring is usually necessary during microwave
cooking. We have noted when stirring is helpful,
using the words once, twice, frequently or occasionally to describe the amount of stirring necessary. Always bring the cooked outside edges
toward the center and the less cooked center portions toward the outside of the dish

Covering

Rearranging
Rearrange small items such as chicken pieces,
shrimp, hamburger patties or pork chops.
Rearrange pieces from the edge to the center
and pieces from the center to the edge of the
dish.

Turning
It is not possible to stir some foods to redistribute
the heat. At times, microwave energy will concentrate in one area of a food. To help insure even
cooking, these foods need to be turned. Turn
over _arge foods, such as roasts or turkeys,
halfway through cooking.

Stand Time
Most foods will continue to cook by conduction
after the microwave oven is turned off. In meat
cookery, the internaq temperature will rise 5°F to
15°F (3°C to 8°C), if allowed to stand, tented with
foil, for 10 to 15 minutes, Casseroles and
vegetables need a shorter amount of standing
time, but this standing time is necessary to allow
foods to complete cooking to the center without
overcooking on the edges.

As with conventional cooking, moisture evaporates during microwave cooking. Casserole lids or
plastic wrap are used for a tighter seal. When
using plastic wrap, vent the plastic wrap by folding back part of the plastic wrap from the edge of
the dish to allow steam to escape. Loosen or
remove plastic wrap as recipe directs for stand
time. When removing plastic wrap covers, as well
as any glass lids, be careful to remove them
away from you to avoid steam burns. Various
degrees of moisture retention are also obtained
by using wax paper or paper towels. However,
unless specified, a recipe is cooked covered.

Test for Doneness
The same tests for doneness used in conventional cooking may be used for microwave cooking.
Meat is done when fork-tender or splits at fibers.
Chicken is done when juices are clear yellow and
drumstick moves freely. Fish is done when it
flakes and is opaque Cake is done when a toothp=ck or cake tester is inserted and comes out
clean. Candy is done when it reaches the proper
temperature for each stage of crystallization.

Care of Your Microwave
BEFORE CLEANING:
Unplug at socket of the oven. If impossible,
leave oven door open to prevent oven from
accidentally turning on.
Inside of the oven:
Wipe with a damp cloth.
Mild detergent may be
used if the oven gets very
dirty. The use of harsh
detergent or abrasives is
not recommended.

AFTER CLEANING:
Be sure to replace the Relier Ring and
Glass Tray in the proper position and
press Stop/Reset Pad to c_ear the screen.

Glass Tray:
Remove and wash in warm
soapy water or in a dishwasher.

Outside oven surfaces.
Clean with a damp cloth.
To prevent damage to the
oven. water should not be
allowed to seep into venlilation openings.
Control

Panel:
with a removable
protective film to prevent
scratches during shipping.
Smarl bubbles may
appear under this film.
(Hint - To remove film,
apply masking or clear
tape to an exposed comer
and pull gently.)
* If the Control Panel
becomes wet, clean it with
a soft dry cloth. Do not
use harsh detergents or
abrasives on the Control
Panel.

Oven Door:
Wipe with a soft cloth when steam accumulates
inside or around the outside of the oven door.
During cooking, especially under high humidity conditions, steam is given offfrom the food. (Some
steam will condense on cooler surfaces, such as
the oven door. This is normal.)
* Inside surface is covered with a heat and vapour
barrier film. Do not remove.

Roller Ring and oven cavity floor:
Wipe the bottom surface of the oven with
mild detergent water or window cleaner
and dry. Roller Ring may be washed in
mild soapy water or dishwasher. These
areas should be kept clean to avoid
excessive noise.

by small appliances such as mixers, vacuums, blow dryers, etc It
does not indicate a problem with your oven.

Steam accumulates
on the oven door and
warm air comes from
the oven vents,

During cooking, steam and warm air are given off from the food. Most
of the steam and warm air are removed from the oven by the air which
circulates in the oven cavity. However, some steam will condense on
cooler surfaces such as the oven door. This is normal.

I accidentally ran my
microwave oven
without any food in it.

Running the oven empty for a short time will not damage the oven.
However, we do not recommend operating the microwave oven
without any food in it.

los pesos recomendados o puede ocurrir un
incendio.
6) LIQUlDOS
• Los liquidos pueden "sobrecalentarse" en el
microondas y, cuando el recipiente se desplaza
en un sentido, los liquidos sobreealentados
pueden "deeborderse"
fuera del reeipiente.
E! agua "sobrecalentada" es mas caliente que el
agua hervida, AUNQUE NO HAGA BURBUJAS.
Para reducir la posibilidad de que esto ocurra,
siempre debe agitar con fuerza los liquidos
antes de calentarlos para que el liquido se mezcle con aire. NO OALIENTE NUNCA LOS LIQUIDOS DURANTE UN TIEMPO PROLONGADO.
7) BANDEJA DE CRISTAIJUTENSILIOS DE
