4Oven MUST be grounded.Grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current if an electrical short occurs. This 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. See Installation Instructions.Consult a qualied electrician or servicer if grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the oven is properly grounded.Do not use an extension cord. If the product power cord is too short, have a qualied electrician install a three-slot receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a separate 60 hertz circuit with the electrical ratting as shown in specications table. When the oven is on a circuit with other equipment, an increase in cooking times may be required and fuses can be blown.Microwave operates on standard household current, 110-120V.Usage situations where appliance’s power cord will be disconnected infrequently:Because of potential safety hazards, we strongly recommend against the use of an adapter plug. If you still choose to use an adapter (where local codes permit), a temporary connection can be made to a properly grounded 2-prong wall receptacle using a UL listed adapter, available at most hardware stores.Have the circuit checked by a qualied electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand. Otherwise, the adapter ground terminal may break with repeated use.Should this happen, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has again been established.Usage situations where appliance’s power cord will be disconnected frequently:Do not use an adapter plug in these situations. Frequent disconnection of the power cord places undue strain on the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the adapter ground terminal. Have a qualied electrician replace the 2-prong wall receptacle with a 3-prong (grounding) receptacle before using the appliance.If you see arcing, press STOP and correct the problem.Arcing is the term for sparks in your microwave oven. Arcing is caused by:• Incorrect installation of the metal shelf so that it is touching the microwave wall.• Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.• Use of foil which is not molded to the food. (The edges act as antennas).• Other metals, such a twist ties, poultry pins or metallicrimmed dishes, in the microwave.• Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces used in the oven.Important Safety InstructionsGrounding InstructionsSAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONSArcingAdapter PlugsWARNING CAUTIONTo avoid risk of electrical shock or death, this oven must be grounded and plug must not be altered.Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall receptacle cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded through the house wiring.

16Sensor OperationsSensor Cook Operating TipsThe Sensor Cook categories are designed to detect the increasing humidity released by the food during the cooking process. The microwave oven sensor will automatically adjust the cooking time to the type and amount of food. The food categories that are controlled with the humidity sensor are::• Frozen Entree• Meat• Seafood• BaconFor best results, do not use one of the Sensor Cook categories twice in succession on the same food portion.This may result in severely overcooked or burnt food. If the food appears to be undercooked, use one of the Easy Set pads or cook time pads to add more time.Additional sensor cook suggestions are:• Never start with less than 4 oz. of food.• Use proper containers and covers for best sensor cooking results.• Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with loose tting lids or vented plastic wrap. Never use tight sealing plastic containers. They will prevent steam from escaping and this will mislead the sensor, usually causing the food to overcook.Be sure the outside of the cooking containers and the cavity of the microwave oven are dry before placing food in the oven. Excessive moisture turning into steam that does not result from the food cooking can mislead the sensor.NOTE: Be sure to separate the slices before cooking.1. Press Sensor Cook pad once.

Piecessimilar in size and shape will cook more evenly whencooked together. For more even results, reduce thepower levels when cooking large pieces of food.Natural moistureVery moist foods cook more evenly because microwaveenergy heats water molecules very e ciently.StirringStir foods such as casseroles and vegetable from theoutside to the center to distribute the heat more evenly.This will allow the food to cook faster. Constant stirring isnot necessary.Turn over itemsTurn over foods such as pork chops, roasts or wholecau ower halfway through the cook time.

24Care & CleaningCleaning suggestionsFor best performance and for safety reasons, keep the oven clean inside and outside. Take special care to keep the inner door panel and oven from frame free of food and grease build-up.Never use rough scouring powder or pads on the microwave. Wipe the microwave oven inside and out with a soft cloth and warm (not hot) mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe completely dry.Wipe spatters immediately with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking greasy foods like chicken or bacon.Clean your microwave oven weekly or more often, ifneeded.Follow these instructions to clean and care for your microwave oven:• Keep the inside (cavity) of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the oven walls, causing the oven to wok less eciently.• Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp, clean cloth and mild soap. DO NOT use harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.• To help loosen baked-on food particles or liquids, heat 2 cups of water (add the juice of 1 lemon if you desire to keep the oven fresh smelling) in a 4 cup measuring glass at High power for 5 minutes or until boiling. Let stand in oven cavity for 1 or 2 minutes.• Remove the glass turntable tray from the oven when cleaning the oven cavity or tray. To prevent the glass turntable from breaking, handle with care and do not put it in water immediately after cooking. Wash the turntable tray in warm sudsy water or in the dishwasher.• Clean the outside surface of the microwave with soap and a clean damp cloth. Dry with a clean soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts of the oven, do not let water seep into any vents or openings.• Wash the oven door window with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft clean 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 the oven cavity; this can damage the magnetron tube or glass tray. You may wish to leave a cup of water standing inside the oven when it is not in use to prevent damage if the oven is accidentally turned on.
