ABOUT UNPACKING AND EXAMINING YOUR

MICRODRAWER

®

MICROWAVE OVEN

1 Remove all packing

materials from inside

the MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven.

DO NOT REMOVE

THE WAVEGUIDE

COVER, which is

located on the top of

the MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven.

2 Remove the feature

sticker, if there is one.

NOTICE: Check the

such as misaligned or

bent drawer, damaged drawer seals and sealing sur-

faces, broken or loose drawer guides and dents inside

the cavity or on the front side of the drawer. If there is

any damage, do not operate the MicroDrawer

®

micro-

wave oven and contact your dealer or a THERMADOR

®

AUTHORIZED SERVICER.

RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE

Should there be any interference caused by the Micro-

Drawer

®

microwave oven to your radio or TV, check that the

MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven is on a different electrical

circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from the drawer

as feasible or check position and signal of receiving antenna.

GROUNDING

INSTRUCTIONS

• This appliance must be ground-

ed. The MicroDrawer

®

micro-

wave oven is equipped with a

cord having a grounding wire

with a grounding plug. It must

be plugged into a wall recep-

tacle that is properly installed

and grounded in accordance

with the National Electrical

Code and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an

electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric

shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

WARNING

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a

risk of electric shock. Do not use an extension cord.

If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified

electrician install an outlet near the appliance.

• If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical

instructions, consult a qualified electrician.

ABOUT YOUR MICRODRAWER

®

MICROWAVE

OVEN

ALWAYS have food in the MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven

when it is on to absorb the microwave energy.

The vent under the MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven must not

be blocked. During microwaving, steam may come from the

right side of the vent.

When using the MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven at power

levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on

and off. It is normal for the exterior of the microwave oven to

be warm to the touch when cooking or reheating.

Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room

humidity and the moisture in food will influence the amount

of moisture that condenses in the microwave oven. Gener-

ally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as

uncovered ones.

The MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven is for food preparation

only. It should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.

Your MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven is rated 950 watts by

using the IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package

directions, check food a minute or two before the minimum

time and add time accordingly.

When opening or closing the drawer quickly, food in the

drawer may be spilled. To clean, please refer to the Cleaning

and Care section on page 17.

A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it for

microwave cooking principles, techniques, hints and recipes.

ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING

• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards

outside of dish.

• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of

time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely

overcooked can smoke or ignite.

• Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for

suggestions: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic

wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to

cook evenly.

• Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin

areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking before

dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.

• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice

during cooking, if possible.

• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed

cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large

items like roasts must be turned over at least once.

• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through

cooking both from top to bottom and from right to left.

• Add standing time. Remove food from MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven and stir, if possible. Cover for standing

time which allows the food to finish cooking without

overcooking.

• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that

cooking temperatures have been reached.

Doneness signs include:

- Food steams throughout, not just at edge.

- Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.

- Poultry thigh joints move easily.

- Meat and poultry show no pinkness.

- Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS

It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces

already in your kitchen can be used successfully in your new

MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven. Make sure the utensil does

not touch the interior walls during cooking.

Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and reheating:

• glass ceramic (Pyroceram

®

), such as Corningware

®

.

• heat-resistant glass (Pyrex

®

)

• microwave-safe plastics

• microwave-safe paper plates

• microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain

• browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheating

time. Follow manufacturer’s directions.)

These items can be used for short time reheating of foods

that have little fat or sugar in them:

• wood, straw, wicker

DO NOT USE

• metal pans and bakeware

• dishes with metallic trim

• non-heat-resistant glass

• non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)

• recycled paper products

• brown paper bags

• food storage bags

• metal twist-ties

Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving,

place the empty dish in the oven and microwave on HIGH

for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not

be used.

The following coverings are ideal:

• Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating

and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.

• Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.

• Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave use

can be used for cooking and reheating. DO NOT allow

plastic wrap to touch food. Vent so steam can escape.

• Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice because

heat is kept near the food to hasten cooking.

• Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or foods

that need tenderizing. DO NOT use metal twist ties.

Remember to slit bag so steam can escape.

How to use aluminum foil in your MicroDrawer

®

micro-

wave oven:

• Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on the

food can be used to shield areas that are either defrosting

or cooking too quickly.

• Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface

of the microwave oven.

ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories

available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before you

purchase so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe

thermometer will assist you in determining correct doneness

and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe

temperatures. BSH is not responsible for any damage to the

MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven when accessories are used.

ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE

WARNING

Do not allow children to use the Drawer Microwave

unattended. Failure to do so can result in burns or

serious injury to children. Children and pets should

not be left alone or unattended in the area where the

appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to

SENSOR SETTINGS

The sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects the

vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from the food as it

heats. The sensor adjusts the cooking times and power

levels for various foods and quantities.

USING SENSOR SETTINGS:

1 After the MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven is plugged in,

wait 2 minutes before using any sensor setting.

2 Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the

interior of the MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven are dry.

Wipe off any moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel.

3 The sensor works with foods at normal storage tempera-

ture. For example, popcorn would be at room tempera-

ture.

4 Any sensor selection can be programmed with More or

Less Time Adjustment. See page 15.

5 More or less food than the quantity listed in the charts

should be cooked following the guidelines in any micro-

wave cookbook.

6 During the first part of sensor use, the food name will

appear on the display. Do not open the drawer or touch

STOP/CLEAR during this part of the cycle. The measure-

ment of vapor will be interrupted. If this occurs, an error

message will appear. To continue cooking, touch the

STOP/CLEAR pad and cook manually.

When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the

food, the remainder of cooking/reheating time will appear.

The drawer may be opened when the remaining time

appears on the display. At this time, you may stir or

season food, as desired.

7 Except for Popcorn, if the sensor does not detect vapor

properly when cooking other foods,

ERROR

will be

displayed, and the microwave will turn off.

8 Check food temperature after cooking. If additional time

is needed, continue to cook manually.

Microwave cooking

MANUAL DEFROST

If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the

DEFROST CHART or is above or below the limits in the

AMOUNT column on the DEFROST CHART, you need to

defrost manually.

You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously

cooked, by using Power Level at 30%. Follow the exact

3-step procedure found under TO SET POWER LEVEL on

page 10. Estimate defrosting time and touch POWER LEVEL

pad eight times for 30% power.

For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the rule

of thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound. For

example, defrost 4 minutes for 1 pound of frozen spa-

ghetti sauce.

Always stop the oven periodically to remove or separate

the portions that are defrosted. If food is not defrosted

at the end of the estimated defrosting time, program the

oven in 1 minute increments on Power Level 30% until

totally defrosted.

When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost

only long enough to remove from the plastic in order to

place in a microwave-safe dish.

Cleaning and Care

STAINLESS STEEL SURFACE

Always wipe or rub in the direction of the grain. The

exterior should be wiped often with a soft damp cloth

and polished with a soft dry cloth to maintain its beauty.

There are also a variety of products designed especially

for cleaning and shining the stainless exterior of the oven.

We recommend that the cleaner be applied to a soft cloth

and then carefully used on the stainless exterior rather

than sprayed directly on to it. Follow package directions

carefully.

FRONT SIDE OF THE DRAWER

Wipe the window on both sides with a soft damp cloth to

remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to

maintain if wiped frequently with a soft damp cloth. Avoid

the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may

stain, streak or dull the drawer surface.

TOUCH CONTROL PANEL

If desired, the touch pads may be deactivated before

cleaning. See the Panel Lock information on page 15

of this manual. Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened

slightly with water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub

or use any sort of chemical cleaners. Close drawer and

follow directions on page 15 for turning Panel Lock off.

Touch STOP/CLEAR.

INTERIOR

Before cleaning the MicroDrawer

®

microwave oven,

touch and hold the Panel Lock button for 3 seconds to

lock the control pad and the automatic door mechanism.

The drawer can be locked in either the open or closed

position. The display will show

LOCK ON

. This will prevent

the drawer from accidentally opening or closing during

cleaning. After cleaning, touch and hold the Panel Lock

button for 3 seconds to turn the lock off. The display will

show

LOCK

OFF

.

Cleaning is easy because no heat is generated to the

interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting

of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces,

including drawer sealing surfaces, wipe with a soft damp

cloth. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS

OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use mild soap;

wipe clean with a soft damp cloth. Do not use any

chemical oven cleaners.

MICRODRAWER

®

MICROWAVE OVEN GUIDES

Remove the food crumbs from the drawer guides. Wipe

with a soft dry cloth in order to keep the drawer opening

and closing smoothly.

WAVEGUIDE COVER

CAUTION

The waveguide cover, located on the inside top of the

drawer area, is made from mica, so it requires special

care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure good

microwave performance. Carefully wipe with a soft

damp cloth any food spatters from the surface of the

cover immediately after they occur. Built-up splashes

may overheat and cause smoke or possibly catch

fire. Do not remove the waveguide cover.

ODOR REMOVAL

Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the drawer.

To remove odor, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and

juice of one lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup

glass microwave-safe measuring cup. Boil for several

minutes using 100% power. Leave in the drawer until

water cools. Wipe interior with a soft cloth.
