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.

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)

(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

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.

Positioning Cooking Rack

The cooking rack can only be used with convection cooking and

broiling (on some models). To avoid damage to the microwave

oven, do not use the cooking rack in combination with microwave

cooking.

Place the cooking rack on slide rails as shown below. Push in the

baking tray to stop position. Check that the cooking rack is level.

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.

The OEM of the XPWG3 Module must only use the approved

antenna(s), which have been certiﬁed with this module. The OEM

integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end

user regarding how to install or remove this RF module or change

RF related parameters in the user manual of the end product.

The user manual for the end product must include the

following information in a prominent location:

“To comply with FCC and Industry Canada RF radiation exposure

limits for general population, the antenna(s) used for this

transmitter must be installed such that a minimum separation

distance of 20 cm is maintained between the radiator (antenna)

and all persons at all times and must not be co-located or

operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.”
