MICROWAVE OVEN SAFETY
When using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
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 the “INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS” 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 - are
able to explode and should not be heated in the
microwave oven.
Use the microwave oven only for its intended use as
described in the 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.
As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary
when used by children.
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.
The microwave oven should be serviced only by qualified
service personnel. Call an authorized service company for
examination, repair, or adjustment.
Do not cover or block any openings on the microwave oven.
Do not store this microwave oven outdoors. Do not use the
microwave oven near water - for example, near a kitchen
sink, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or similar
locations.
Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
See door surface cleaning instructions in the “Microwave
Oven Care” section.
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
Do not overcook food. Carefully attend the microwave
oven when paper, plastic, or other combustible materials
are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before
placing bags in oven.
If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven door closed,
turn oven off, and disconnect the power cord, or shut off
power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
– Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave
paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when
not in use.
3
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.
State of California Proposition 65 Warnings:
WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer.
WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be
overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to
be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container
is removed from the microwave oven is not always
present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS
SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER
IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS
INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
– Do not overheat the liquid.
– Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
– Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
– After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave
oven for a short time before removing the container.
Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil
into the container.
Do not mount over a sink.
Do not store anything directly on top of the microwave oven
when the microwave oven is in operation.

PARTS AND FEATURES
Feature Guide
This manual covers several models. Your model may have some or all of the items listed. Refer to this manual or the Product Help section
of our website at www.whirlpool.com for more detailed instructions. In Canada, refer to the Product Help section at
www.whirlpool.ca.
Electrical Requirements
This device complies with Part 18 of the FCC Rules.
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Required:
A 120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, 15- or 20-amp electrical supply
with a fuse or circuit breaker.
Recommended:
A time-delay fuse or time-delay circuit breaker.
A separate circuit serving only this microwave oven.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
WARNING GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE 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.
WARNING
Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour before
or after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

MICROWAVE OVEN USE
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.
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not lean on or
allow children to swing on the microwave oven door.
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not operate
microwave oven when it is empty.
The turntable must be in place and correct side up when
microwave oven is in use. Do not use if turntable is chipped or
broken. See the “Assistance or Service” section to reorder.
Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in
microwave oven.
Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, and paper,
including brown paper bags and newspaper, should not be
dried in microwave oven.
Paraffin wax will not melt in the microwave oven because it
does not absorb microwaves.
Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing containers from
microwave oven.
Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended
cook time, potatoes should be slightly firm. Let potatoes stand
for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.
Do not cook or reheat whole eggs inside the shell. Steam
buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst. Cover
poached eggs and allow a standing time.
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 needed.
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
will 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.
Cooking Guidelines
Covering
Covering food helps retain moisture, shorten cook time, and
reduce spattering. Use the lid supplied with cookware. If a lid is
not available, wax paper, paper towels, or plastic wrap approved
for microwave ovens may be used. Plastic wrap should be
turned back at one corner to provide an opening to vent steam.
Condensation on the door and cavity surfaces is normal during
heavy cooking.
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.
Arranging
If heating irregularly shaped or different sized foods, arrange the
thinner parts and smaller sized items 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.
Piercing
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 tails. See the “Aluminum Foil and Metal” section
first.
Standing Time
Food will continue to cook by the natural conduction of heat even
after the microwave cooking cycle ends. The length of standing
time depends on the volume and density of the food.
18
Turntable On/Off
For best performance, the turntable should be on during
microwave cooking.
If using oversized cookware that does not turn freely on the
microwave turntable, turn the turntable OFF. To turn off the
turntable, touch TURNTABLE. When cooking with the turntable
OFF, food should be turned halfway through the cooking process.
NOTE: The turntable cannot be turned off during any auto cooking
cycle.
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.
Material Recommendations
Aluminum Foil,
Metal
See the “Aluminum Foil and Metal” section.
Browning Dish Bottom must be at least 3/16" (5 mm)

Do not use cookware or dinnerware if it becomes hot and the
water stays cool.
Aluminum Foil and Metal
Always use oven mitts or pot holders when removing dishes from
the microwave oven.
Aluminum foil and some metal can be used in the microwave
oven. If not used properly, arcing (a blue flash of light) can occur
and cause damage to the microwave oven.
OK for Use
Racks and bakeware supplied with the microwave oven (on
some models), aluminum foil for shielding, and approved meat
thermometers may be used with the following guidelines:
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow
aluminum foil or metal to touch the inside cavity walls, ceiling
or floor.
Always use the turntable.
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow contact
with another metal object during microwave cooking.
Do Not Use
Metal cookware and bakeware, gold, silver, pewter, non-approved
meat thermometers, skewers, twist ties, foil liners such as
sandwich wrappers, staples, and objects with gold or silver trim or
a metallic glaze should not be used in the microwave oven.

Convect
Convection cooking uses the convection element, the broil
element, and the fan. Hot air is circulated 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 placed on turntable or baking
tray.
Always use the turntable “On” option when convection
cooking with the convection grid (default setting).
Do not cover turntable or convection grid or baking tray with
aluminum foil.
Do not use light plastic containers, plastic wrap or paper
products. All heatproof cookware or metal utensils can be
used in convection 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.
All Convect functions require preheating before use. Place
food in microwave oven after preheating is complete.
Convect is a function that converts a standard thermal bake cook
time and temperature into an ideal cook time and temperature for
convection cooking after the oven has preheated.
Convection temperatures and times differ from those of standard
cooking. The oven can automatically reduce standard recipe
temperatures and times for convection cooking.

If you experience Recommended Solutions
Microwave oven will
not operate
Check the following:
Household fuse or circuit breaker: If a household fuse has blown or a circuit breaker has tripped, replace
the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician.
Magnetron: Try to heat 1 cup (250 mL) of cold water for 2 minutes at 100% cooking power. If water does
not heat, try the steps in the bullets below. If microwave oven still does not operate, call for service.
Door: Firmly close door. On some models, if a packaging spacer is attached to inside of the door, remove
it, then firmly close door.
If a message about the door appears in the display, the door has been closed for 5 minutes or more
without the microwave oven being started. This occurs to avoid unintended starting of the microwave
oven. Open and close the door, then start the cycle.
Control: Make sure control is set properly. Make sure Control Lock is off. Make sure Demo mode (on
some models) is off.
Arcing in the
microwave oven
Check the following:
Soil buildup: Soil buildup on cavity walls, microwave inlet cover, cooking rack supports, and area where
the door touches the frame can cause arcing. See “General Cleaning” in the “Microwave Oven Care”
section.
Turntable alternates
rotation directions This is normal and depends on motor rotation at the beginning of the cycle.
Display shows
messages
“Enter clock” with flashing digits means there has been a power failure. Reset the clock.
A letter followed by a number is an error indicator. Call for assistance.
Fan running during
cooktop usage
This is normal. The microwave oven’s cooling fan, which is separate from the vent fan, automatically
comes on during microwave oven operation to cool the microwave oven. It may also automatically come
on and cycle on and off to cool the microwave oven’s controls while the cooktop below is being used.
Radio, TV, or cordless
phone interference
Check the following:
Proximity: Move the receiver away from the microwave oven, or adjust the radio or TV antenna.
Soil: Make sure the microwave oven door and sealing surfaces are clean.
Frequency: Some 2.4 GHz-based cordless phones and home wireless networks may experience static
or noise while microwave oven is on. Use a corded phone, a different frequency cordless phone, or avoid
using these items during microwave oven operation.
Cannot connect
to router
New router installed: Erase the old router information by pressing and holding CONNECT for approximately
15 seconds. Repeat the steps from the “Connectivity Setup” section for the new router.
Wi-Fi signal strength low: Reposition router closer to the appliance. Call the connected customer service
center to confirm signal strength. See the “Warranty” section for contact information.
Appliance not
connected
Loss of power to router: Restore power to router.
Remote app isn’t
working and/or is
not receiving push
notifications
Router not working: Ensure router is connected to the internet and the Wi-Fi indicator is on.
Push notifications are disabled: Ensure that push notifications are enabled on your remote app.
User account not set up: Set up a user account and register the appliance on the remote app.
