Safety

IMPORTANTGROUNDING
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 electrical current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord that includes a grounding wire
and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet
that is properly installed and grounded. Plug the three-prong
power cord into a properly grounded outlet of standard 115-120
voltage, 60 Hz. Your oven should be the only appliance on this
circuit.

WARNING
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk
of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or
servicer if you do not understand the grounding
instructions or if you are not sure if the appliance is
properly grounded.

Use of Extension

Cords

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer
cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if
care is exercised in their use. If a long cord or extension cord is
used:
1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance.
2. The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord
and it must be plugged into a 3-slot outlet.
3. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over accidentally. If you use an extension
cord, the interior light may flicker and the blower may vary
when the microwave oven is on. Cooking times may be
longer, too.

WARNING
Do not cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord under any circumstances.

Note
Connect the oven to a 20A circuit.
When connecting the oven to a 15A circuit, make
sure that circuit breaker is operable.

Utensils

Press the One Minute + button once to heat them for one minute at

The water should be warm and the dish you are testing should be cool. If
the dish is warm, then it is absorbing microwave energy and is not
acceptable for use in the microwave.

Cooking Instructions
Cooking

Techniques

General

Stirring

•

Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute
heat evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and
heats more quickly, so stir from the outside to the center. The oven will
turn off when you open the door to stir your food.

•

Arrangement
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with
the thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable where they
receive more microwave energy. To prevent overcooking, place thin or
delicate parts toward the center of the turntable.

•
®
•
•

Shielding
Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking.
Areas that need shielding include poultry wing-tips, the ends of poultry
legs, and corners of square baking dishes. Use only small amounts of
aluminum foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven.

•

Turning
Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to
microwave energy. This is especially important with large items such as
roasts.

Standing
Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal heat and continue to
cook for a few minutes after the oven stops. Let foods stand to complete
cooking, especially foods such as roasts and whole vegetables. Roasts
need this time to complete cooking in the center without overcooking the
outer areas. All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate, should be shaken
or stirred when cooking is complete. Let liquids stand a moment before
serving. When heating baby food, stir well and test the temperature
before serving.

Adding

Moisture

Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven
in moisture content should be covered or allowed to stand so that the
heat disperses evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help it
cook.

Tips

Dense foods, such as potatoes, take longer to heat than lighter
foods. Foods with a delicate texture should be heated at a low power
level to avoid becoming tough.
Altitude and the type of cookware you are using can affect cooking
time. When using a new recipe, use the minimum cooking time and
check the food occasionally to prevent overcooking.
Foods with a non-porous skin or shell, such as potatoes, eggs, or hot
dogs, should be pierced to prevent bursting.
Frying with heating oil or fat is not recommended. Fat and oil can
suddenly boil over and cause severe burns.
Some ingredients heat faster than others. For example, the jelly
inside a jelly doughnut will be hotter than the dough. Keep this in
mind to avoid burns.
Home canning in the microwave oven is not recommended because
all harmful bacteria may not be destroyed by the microwave heating
process.
Although microwaves do not heat the cookware, the heat is often
transferred to the cookware. Always use pot holders when removing
food from the microwave and instruct children to do the same.

Eggs in Your Microwave

Never cook eggs in the shell, and never warm hard-cooked eggs in
the shell; they can explode.
Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting.
Cook eggs just until set; they become tough if overcooked.

for Cooking

Vegetables

in Your Microwave

Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Often, no extra
water is needed. If dense vegetables such as potatoes, carrots and
green beans are being cooked, add about ¼ cup water.
Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook
faster than larger ones.
Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or corn on the
cob, should be arranged in a circle on the turntable before cooking.
They wilt cook more evenly if turned over after half the cooking time.
Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem
ends pointing towards the edge of the dish and the tips toward the
center.
When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or
vented microwavable plastic wrap.
Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash, eggplant,
etc., should have their skin pricked in several spots before cooking to
prevent them from bursting.
For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway
through the cooking time.
Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing time.
(Standing time refers to the time necessary for dense, large foods
and vegetables to finish cooking after they come out of the oven.) A
baked potato can stand on the counter for five minutes before
cooking is completed, while a dish of peas can be served
immediately.

Notes

Guide

Check foods when the oven signals. After the final stage, small sections
may still be icy; let them stand to continue thawing. Do not defrost until
all ice crystals have thawed. Shielding roasts and steaks with small
pieces of foil prevents the edges from cooking before the center of the
food has defrosted. Use narrow, flat, smooth strips of aluminum foil to
cover the edges and thinner sections of the food.

Follow the instructions below when defrosting different types of food.

This is similar to the interference caused by other small appliances,
such as hair dryers. Move your microwave further away from other
appliances, like your TV or radio.

Care and Cleaning
e
Follow these instructions to clean and care for your oven.
• Keep the inside of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids
can stick to the oven walls, causing the oven to work tess efficiently.
• Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not
use harsh detergents or abrasives.
• To help loosen baked on food particles or liquids, heat two cups of
water (add the juice of one lemon if you desire to keep the oven
fresh) in a four-cup measuring glass at High power for five minutes
or until boiling. Let stand in the oven for one or two minutes.
• Remove the glass tray from the oven when cleaning the oven or tray.
To prevent the tray from breaking, handle it carefully and do not put it
,,
in water immediately after cooking. Wash the tray carefully in warm
sudsy water or in the dishwasher.
• Clean the outside surface of the oven with soap and a damp cloth.
Dry with a soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts of the
oven, don't let water seep into the openings.
• Wash the door window with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use
a soft cloth to avoid scratching.
• If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a
soft cloth. Steam can accumulate when operating the oven in high
humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage.
• Never operate the oven without food in it; this can damage the
magnetron tube or glass tray. You may wish to leave a cup of water
•
in the oven when it is not in use to prevent damage if the oven is
accidentally turned on.

Remove any metallic utensils, cookware, or metal ties. If using foil,
use only narrow strips and allow at least one inch between the foil
and interior oven walls.
