This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or
“WARNING.” These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't
immediately follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't
follow instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you
what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, electric
shock, fire, injury to persons, or exposure to excessive
microwave energy:
■ Read all instructions before using the microwave
oven.
■ Read and follow the specific “PRECAUTIONS TO
AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICROWAVE ENERGY” found in this section.
■ The microwave oven must be grounded. Connect
only to properly grounded outlet. See “GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS” found in this section.
■
■
■
■
Install or locate the microwave oven only in accordance with the provided Installation Instructions.
Some products such as whole eggs in the shell and
sealed containers – for example, closed glass jars –
may explode and should not be heated in the
microwave oven.
Use the microwave oven only for its intended use as
described in this manual. Do not use corrosive
chemicals or vapors in the microwave oven. This
type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook,
or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.
Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should
not be inserted in the microwave oven as they may
create a fire or risk of electric shock.
■
Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can
burn off the pad and touch electrical parts involving
a risk of electric shock.
■
Do not store any materials, other than manufacturer's
recommended accessories, in this oven when not in
use.
Do not operate the microwave oven if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it
has been damaged or dropped.
■ Do not deep fry in oven. Microwavable utensils are
not suitable and it is difficult to maintain appropriate
deep frying temperatures.
■
■
Do not use paper products when appliance is
operated in the "PAN BROWN" mode.
■
Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with
metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.
■

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY...
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door
open since open-door operation can result in
harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is
important not to defeat or tamper with the
safety interlocks.
(b) Do not place any object between the oven front
face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue
to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is
particularly important that the oven door close
properly and that there is no damage to the:
(1) Door (bent),
(2) Hinges and latches (broken or loosened),
(3) Door seals and sealing surfaces.
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by
anyone except properly qualified service personnel.
Electrical Requirements
The microwave oven is connected to a 110-volt side of the 240volt circuit required for the lower oven. If the incoming voltage to
the microwave oven is less than 110 volts cooking times may be
longer. Have a qualified electrician check your electrical system.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
■
For all cord connected appliances:
The microwave oven 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. The microwave 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.
WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug 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 microwave oven is properly grounded.
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 microwave oven.
■
For a permanently connected appliance:
This appliance must be connected to a grounded,
metallic, permanent wiring system, or an equipment
grounding conductor should be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the equipment
grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.

The crisper pan is ideal for rapidly browning and crisping the
bottom of foods, such as cookies and pizza.
The material coating the bottom absorbs microwaves and
transfers the heat to the pan and food. The crisper pan reaches
436°F (210°C) in approximately 3 minutes, at which time it stops
absorbing microwaves and holds this optimal frying temperature.
■ The crisper pan will become hot. Always use the handle and
oven mitts or pot holders when handling.
■
Never allow the crisper pan or handle to touch the inside
cavity walls, ceiling or floor.
■
Always use the turntable.

Tones
BEFORE USING
Tones are audible signals indicating the following:
Four tones
A magnetron in the oven produces microwaves which reflect off
the metal floor, walls and ceiling and pass through the turntable
and appropriate cookware to the food. Microwaves are attracted
to and absorbed by fat, sugar and water molecules in the food,
causing them to move, producing friction and heat which cooks
the food.
■ Never lean on or allow children to swing on the oven door.
■
End of cooking cycle
■
Do not operate microwave oven when it is empty.
■
End of timer countdown
■
■
Reminder tones that sound every minute after a cooking
cycle ends until the door is opened or MICROWAVE OVEN
CANCEL is touched.
Heated liquids can splash out during and after heating. Use
of a wooden stir stick placed in the cup or bowl during
heating may help to avoid this.
■
Timer
The turntable must be in place and correct side up when
oven is in use. Do not use if turntable is chipped or broken.
See “Assistance or Service” section to reorder.
■
Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in the
oven.
■
Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, paper, including
brown paper bags and newspaper should not be dried in the
oven.
■
Do not use the microwave oven for canning, sterilizing or
deep frying. The oven cannot maintain appropriate
temperatures.
■
Paraffin wax will not melt in the oven because it does not
absorb microwaves.
■
Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing containers from
oven.
■
Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended
cook time, potatoes should be slightly firm. Let potatoes
stand for five minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.
■
Do not cook or reheat whole eggs or eggs inside the shell.
Steam build-up in whole eggs may cause them to burst.
Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time.

LOCK” and the lock icon will disappear from the display and a
single tone will sound.
Food Characteristics
When microwave cooking, the amount, size and shape, starting
temperature, composition and density of the food affect cooking
results.
Amount of Food
The more food heated at once the longer the cook time. Check
for doneness and add small increments of time if necessary.
Size and Shape
Smaller pieces of food will cook more quickly than larger pieces
and uniformly shaped foods cook more evenly than irregularly
shaped food.
Starting Temperature
Room temperature foods will heat faster than refrigerated foods
and refrigerated foods will heat faster than frozen foods.
Composition and Density
Foods high in fat and sugar will reach a higher temperature and
heat faster than other foods. Heavy, dense foods, such as meat
and potatoes, require a longer cook time than the same size of a
light, porous food, such as cake.
MATERIAL
RECOMMENDATIONS
Melamine
Follow manufacturer’s recommendations.
Paper Towels,
Dinnerware,
Napkins
Use non-recycled and those approved by
the manufacturer for microwave oven use.
Plastic Wraps,
Bags, Covers,
Dinnerware,
Containers
Use those approved by the manufacturer
for microwave oven use.
Pottery and Clay
Follow manufacturer’s recommendations.
Arranging
Styrofoam®
Do not use in oven.
If heating irregularly shaped or different sized foods, the thinner
parts and smaller sizes should be arranged toward the center. If
cooking several items of the same size and shape, place them in
a ring pattern, leaving the center of the ring empty.
Straw, Wicker,
Wooden
Containers
Do not use in oven.
Piercing
Wax Paper
Acceptable for use.
Cooking Guidelines
Covering
Covering food helps retain moisture, shorten cook time and
reduce spattering. Use the lid supplied with cookware. If lid is not
available, wax paper, paper towels or plastic wrap approved for
microwaves may be used. Plastic wrap should be turned back at
one corner to provide an opening to vent steam.
Stirring and Turning
Stirring and turning redistributes heat evenly to avoid
overcooking the outer edges of food. Stir from outside to center.
If possible, turn food over from bottom to top.
Before heating, use a fork or small knife to pierce or prick foods
that have a skin or membrane, such as potatoes, egg yolks,
chicken livers, hot dogs, and sausage. Prick in several places to
allow steam to vent.
Shielding
Use small, flat pieces of aluminum foil to shield the thin pieces of
irregularly shaped foods, bones and foods such as chicken
wings, leg tips and fish tail. See “Aluminum Foil and Metal” first.
To Test Cookware or Dinnerware for Microwave Use:
1. Put cookware or dinnerware in oven with 1 cup (250 mL) of
water beside it.
2. Cook at 100% cooking power for 1 minute.
Do not use cookware or dinnerware if it becomes hot and the
water stays cool.
Aluminum Foil and Metal
Standing Time
Food will continue to cook by the natural conduction of heat even
after the microwave cycle ends. The length of standing time
depends on the volume and density of the food.
Cookware and Dinnerware
Cookware and dinnerware must fit on the turntable. Always use
oven mitts or pot holders when handling because any dish may
become hot from heat transferred from the food. Do not use
cookware and dinnerware with gold or silver trim. Use the
following chart as a guide, then test before using.

Custom Defrost
The Custom Defrost feature can be used, or the microwave oven
can be manually set to defrost by using 30% cook power.
■ Food should be 0°F (-18°C) or colder at defrosting for optimal
results.
■
Unwrap foods and remove lids (from fruit juice) before
defrosting.
■
Shallow packages will defrost more quickly than deep blocks.
■
Separate food pieces as soon as possible during or at the
end-of-cycle for more even defrosting.
■
Foods left outside the freezer for more than 20 minutes or
frozen ready-made food should not be defrosted using the
Custom Defrost feature, but should be defrosted manually.
■
Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts of food such
as chicken wings, leg tips and fish tails. See “Aluminum Foil
and Metal” first.

Convection Cooking
1. Broil Element
2. Convection Fan
3. Convection Element (on some models)
4. Convection Grid
Convection Cooking uses the convection element (on some
models) and the fan. Hot air is circlulated throughout the oven
cavity by the fan. The constantly moving air surrounds the food to
heat the outer portion quickly.
The Convect function may be used to cook small amounts of
food on a single rack.
■ Always use the Convection Grid.
■
Do not cover Turntable or Convection Grid with aluminum foil.
■
Do not use light plastic containers, plastic wrap or paper
products. All heat proof cookware or metal utensils can be
used in convection cooking, but metal utensils cannot be
used in microwave cooking. Round pizza pans are excellent
for convection cooking.
■
Use convection cooking for items such as souffles, breads,
cookies, angel food cakes, pizza, and most meats and fish.
■
No special techniques are needed to adapt standard oven
recipes to convection cooking, although some temperatures
might need lowering, and some cooking times reduced.
