Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is caused by: • Metal or foil touching the side of the oven. • Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennas). • Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold rimmed dishes, in the microwave. • Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being used in the microwave. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS USING AN ADAPTER GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS Due to potential safety hazards, we strongly recommend against the use of an adapter plug. However, if the still elect to use an adapter, where local codes may permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made to a properly grounded two prong wall receptacle by the use of a UL/CSA listed adapter, which is avilable at most hardware stores. This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, the grounding plug reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for 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. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS GENERAL USE WARNING DO NOT attempt to temper with or make any adjustment or repair to door, control panel or any other part of the oven. DO NOT remove outer case from oven. Repairs should only be done by a qualified service person. Improper use of the grounding can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded, and either : (1) If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance. or (2) 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 appliance. If a fire occurs in the oven, touch the STOP/CLEAR pad and LEAVE THE DOOR CLOSED. Disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel. DO NOT operate the oven empty. The microwave energy will reflect continuously throughout the oven if no food or water is present to absorb energy. DO NOT attempt to dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven. They may catch on fire. WARNING DO NOT use recycled paper products as they may contain impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires when used. Do not cut or remove the third(ground) prong from the power cord under any circumstances. DO NOT hit or strike the control panel, damage to controls may occur. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS It is better to UNDERCOOK RATHER THAN OVENCOOK foods. If food is undercooked, it can always be returned to the oven for further cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be done. Always start with minimum cooking times. AVOID inserting nails, wire, etc. through any holes in the unit while operating the oven. Never insert a wire, nails or any other metal object through the holes on the cavity or any other holes or gaps because such objects may cause electric shock and microwave leakage. SMALL QUANTITIES of food or foods with LOW MOISTURE content can burn, dry out or catch on fire if cooked too long. UTENSILS DO NOT boil eggs in their shell. Pressure may build up and the eggs will explode. METAL CONTAINERS or dishes with metallic rims should not be used. Arcing may occur. Potatoes, apples, egg yolks, whole acom squash and sausage are examples of food with NONPOROUS SKINS. These must be pierced before cooking to prevent bursting. METAL TWIST-TIE must not be used in the microwave oven. DO NOT use SEALED JARS or NARROW NECK buttles for cooking or reheating. They may shatter. POPCORN must be popped in a microwave corn popper. Microwave popped corn produces a lower yield than conventional popping. Do not pop popcorn unless popped in a microwave approved popcorn utensils or unless it’s commercially packaged and recommended especially for microwave ovens. Do not use oil unless specifed by the manufacturer. DO NOT use CONVENTIONAL THERMOMETERS in the microwave oven. They may cause arcing. Remove PLASTIC STORE WRAPS before cooking or defrosting in the oven. DO NOT attempt to deep fat fry in your oven. For FURTHER INFORMATION on proper cooking utensils, refer to the Introduction in the Microwave cooking guide. HEATED LIQUIDS can ERUPT if not mixed with air. Do not heat liquids in your microwave oven without first stirring. FOOD Never use your microwave oven for HOME CANNING. The oven is not designed to permit proper canning. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume. COOKING TIMES given in the cooking guide are APPROXIMATE. Factors that may affect cooking are: starting temperature, altitude, volume, size and shape of foods and utensils used. As you become familiar with the oven, you will be able to adjust for these factors. INSTALLATION CARE OF YOUR M.W.O Examine the oven after unpacking. Check for damage such as a misaligned door, broken door or dent in the cavity. If any damage is visible, DO NOT INSTALL, and notify your dealer immediately. Level, flat location. Install the microwave oven on a level, flat surface. Ventilation. Do not block air vents. If they are blocked during operation, the oven may overheat and eventually cause a failure. For proper ventilation, allow 3 inches of space between oven top, sides, rear and adjacent surfaces. The minimum height of free space necessary above the top surface of the oven is 100mm. Away from radio and TV sets. Poor television reception and radio interference may result if the oven is located close to a TV, radio, antenna, feeder, etc. Place the oven as far from them as possible. Away from heating appliances and water taps. Keep the oven away from heat, steam or splashing liquids. These things can adversely affect oven wiring and contacts. Power supply. This microwave oven requires a power supply of approximately 13 Amperes, 120 Volts, 60Hz and a grounded outlet. A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk of the user becoming entangled in or tripping oven longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care to exercised. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the oven. The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord. The longer cord should be arranged so it does not drape over the table top or counter where children can pull on it or trip over it. Turn the oven off before cleaning. Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food spatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls, 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. The outside oven surface should be cleaned with soap and water, rinsed and dried with a soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings. If the Control Panel becomes wet, clean with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives on Control Panel. If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur when the microwave oven is operated under high humidity conditions and in no way indicates malfunction of the unit. It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in warm sudsy water or in a dishwasher. The roller guide and oven cavity floor should be cleaned regularly to avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent water or window cleaner and dry. The roller guide may be washed in mild sudsy water. Glass Tray Roller Guide OPERATION PROCEDURE HOW TO USE YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN SAFELY This section includes useful information about oven operation. 1. Plug power supply cord into a standard 3pronged 13 Amp, 120V AC 60Hz power outlet. 2. After placing the food in a suitable container, open the oven door and put it on the glass tray. The glass tray and roller guide must always be in place during cooking. 3. Shut the door. Make sure that it is firmly closed. When the oven door is closed, the light turns off. The oven door can be opened at any time during operation by pressing the door release button on the control panel. The oven will automatically shut off. To restart the oven, close the door and then touch START. The oven automatically cooks on full power unless set to a lower power level. The display will show “ : 0” when the oven is plugged in. Time clock returns to the present time when the cooking time ends. When the STOP/CLEAR is touched during the oven operation, the oven stops cooking and all information retained. To erase all information(except the present time), touch the STOP/CLEAR once more. If the oven door is opened during the oven operation, all information is retained. If the START is touched and the oven does not operate, check the area between the door and door seal for obstructions and make sure the door is closed securely. The oven will not start cooking until the door is completely closed or the program has been reset. Make sure the oven is properly installed and plugged into the electrical outlet. Although your oven is provided with safety features, it is important to observe the following: a) It is important not to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks. b) Do not place any object between the front face and the door or allow residue to accymulate ob sealing surfaces. Wipe the sealing area frequently with a mild detergent, rinse and wipe dry. Never use abasive powders or pads. c) When opened, the door must not be subjected to stain, for example, a child hanging on an opened door or any load could cause the oven to fall forward to cause injury and also damage the door. Do not operate the oven if it is damaged, until it has been repaired by a qualified service engineer. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the: i) Door (bent) ii) Hinges and Latches (broken or loosened) iii) Door seals and Sealing surfaces d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel. NOTE: It is quite normal for steam to be emitted around the door during the cooking cycle. The door is not intended to seal the oven cavity completely, but its special design contributes to the complete safety of the appliance. CAUTION: 1. Do not attempt to operate the oven while empty as this will cause damage. 2. As an exhaust is located in the rear of the oven, install the oven so as not to block the outlet.

Microwave browning dish - Use to brown the exterior of small items such as steaks, chops, or pancakes. Follow the directions provided with you browning dish. Microwaveable plastic wrap - Use to retain steam. Leave a small opening for some steam to escape and avoid placing it directly on the food. Wax paper - Use as a cover to prevent spattering. Paper towels and napkins - Use for short term heating and covering; they absorb excess moisture and prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal and can catch fire. Paper plates and cups - Use for short-term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled paper, which may contain metal and can catch fire. Thermometers - Use only those labeled “Microwave Safe” and follow all directions. Check the food in several places. Conventional thermometers may be used once the food has been removed from the oven. 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 sdishes. Use only small amounts of aluminum foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven. Limited Use Aluminum foil - Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too much toil can damage your oven, so be careful. Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware - Use these if they are labeled “Microwave Safe”. If they are not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used safely. Never use dishes with metallic trim. Plastic - Use only if labeled “Microwave Safe”. Other plastics can melt. Straw, wicker, and wood - Use only for short-term heating, as they can be flammable. Turning Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to microwave energy. This is especially important with large items such as roatsts. 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. Not Recommended Glass jars and bottles - Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave, and can shatter. Paper bags - These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use. Styrofoam plates and cups - These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food. Plastic storage and food containers - Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in the microwave. Metal utensils - These can damage your oven. Remove all metal before cooking. 15 DEFROSTING GENERAL INFORMATION ➪ Put the food on a microwave rack (roasts, bone-in pieces) or in a microwave casserole (small pieces such as cubes or strips) or weigh at home on a kitchen scale. Round number to the nearest tenth of a pound and choose that number with each item pads. ➪ The shape of food items, especially larger ones, will vary affect the way defrost. Always check the status after the standing time. Fish, seafood and poultry should still be somewhat icy in the center the held under cold running water to finish defrosting. If more time is needed, use DEFROST by time to add time in small increments. ➪ Halfway through the defrosting process, a series of beeps will indicate that it is time to change the position of the item being defrosted. The includes turning over or rotating the item, separating defrosted pieces or sections, or shielding. ➪ Shielding means to use a 2-inch strip of aluminum foil to protect thinner or unevenly shaped part from beginning to cook. Microwave energy will not penetrate the foil. Some rules apply to the use of foil: Do not let the foil pieces touch each other or the sides of the microwave oven. Be sure that all ends are touched under and lie flat to the food. Remember to adjust foil when a item is turned over and cover with wax paper. ➪ To prepare food for freezer storage(and later defrosting), wrap tightly in moisture proof packaging. If using freezer plastic bags, be sure to let all the air out to prevent freezer bump on the food. Package so that food is as evenly shaped as possible ease in defrosting 16 DEFROSTING CHART FISH AND SEAFOOD ITEM SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS COOKING TIME PER POUND Place fillets on a microwave rack; cover paper towel.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SERVICE THE OVEN YOURSELF ! 21 Grams 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS * Q : I accidentally ran my microwave oven without any food in it. Is it damaged? * A : Running the oven empty for a short time will not damage the oven. However, it is not recommended. * Q : What does “standing time” mean? * A : “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. * Q : Can the oven be used with the glass tray or roller guide removed? * A : No. Both the glass tray and roller guide must always be used in the oven before cooking. * Q : Why does my oven not always cook as fast as the microwave cooking guide says? * A : Check your cooking guide again, to make sure you’ve followed directions exactly ; and to see what might cause variations in cooking time. Cooking guide times and heat settings are suggestions, to help prevent overcooking... the most common problem in getting used to a microwave oven. Variations in the size, shape and weights and dimensions could require longer cooking time. Use your own judgement along with the cooking guide suggestions to check whether the food has been properly cooked just as you would do with a conventional cooker. * Q : Can I open the door when the oven is operating? * A : The door can be opened anytime during the cooking operation. Then microwave energy will be instantly switched off and the time setting will maintain until the door is closed. * Q : Why do I have moisture in my microwave oven after cooking? * A : The moisture on the side of your microwave oven is normal. It is caused by steam from cooking food hitting the cool oven surface. * Q : Does microwave energy pass through the viewing screen in the door? * A : No. The metal screen bounces back the energy to the oven cavity. The holes are made to allow light to pass through. They do not let microwave energy pass through. * Q : Why do eggs sometimes pop? * A : When baking or poaching eggs, the yolk may pop due to steam build-up inside the yolk membrane. To prevent this, simply pierce the yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never cook eggs without piercing their shells. * Q : Why this standing time recommended after the cooking operation has been completed? * A : Standing time is very important. With microwave cooking, the heat is in the food, not in the oven. Many foods build up enough internal heat to allow the cooking process to continue, even after the food is removed from the oven. Standing time for joints of meat, large vegetables and cakes is to allow the inside to cook completely, without overcooking the outside. * Q : Will the microwave oven be damaged if it operates while empty? * A : Yes. Never run it empty. * Q : Can I operate my microwave oven without the turntable or turn the turntable over to hold a large dish? * A : No. If you remove or turn over the turntable, you will get poor cooking results. Dishes used in your oven must fit on the turntable. * Q : Is it normal for the turntable to turn in either direction? * A : Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, depending on the rotation of the motor when the cooking cycle begins. * Q : Can I pop popcorn in my microwave oven? How do I get the best results? * A : Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn following manufacture’s guidelines or use the preset POPCORN pad. Do not use regular paper bags. Use the “listening test” by stopping the oven as soon as the popping slows to a “pop” every 1 or 2 seconds. Do not repop unpopped kernels. Do not pop popcorn in glass cookware. 22 Limited Warranty DAEWOO ELECTRONICS CORPORATION OF AMERICA warrants the following microwave ovens to be free from defective material and workmanship and agrees to remedy any such defect or to furnish a new part (at the Company's option) in exchange for any part of any unit of its manufacture which under normal installation, use and service disclosed such defect, provided the unit is delivered by the owner to use or to our authorized distributor from whom purchased or authorized service station, intact, for our examination with all transportation charges prepaid to our factory.
