1. Do not overheat the liquid.

2. Stir the liquid both before and halfway through

heating it.

3. Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow

necks.

4. After heating, allow the container to stand in the

microwave oven for a short time before removing

the container.

5. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or

other utensil into the container.

WARNING

To avoid risk of electrical shock or death, this oven must be grounded and plug must not be altered.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

Oven 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 qualied 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 qualied electrician install a three-

slot receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a separate 60 hertz circuit with the electrical rating as shown

in specications 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.

TESTING YOUR DINNERWARE OR COOKWARE

Test dinnerware or cookware before using. To test a dish for safe use, put it into oven with a cup of water

beside it. Cook at 100% cook power for one minute. If the dish gets hot, do not use it.

Some dishes (melamine, some ceramic dinnerware, etc.) absorb microwave energy, becoming too hot

to handle and slowing cooking times. Cooking in metal containers not designed for microwave use could

damage the oven, as could containers with hidden metal (twist-ties, staples, metallic glaze or trim).

GETTING THE BEST COOKING RESULTS

To get the best results from your microwave oven, read and follow the guidelines below.

Storage Temperature:• Foods taken from the freezer or refrigerator take longer to cook than the same foods

at room temperature.

Size:• Small pieces of food coo k faster than large ones, pieces similar in size and shape cook more evenly.

For even cooking, reduce the power when cooking large pieces of food.

Natural Moisture:• Very moist foods cook more evenly because microwave energy is attracted to water

molecules.

Stir foods• such as casseroles and vegetables from the outside to the centre to distribute the heat evenly and

speed cooking. Constant stirring is not necessary.

Turn over foods like pork chops,• baking potatoes, roasts, or whole cauliower halfway through the cooking

time to expose all sides equally to microwave energy.

Place delicate areas of foods,• such as asparagus tips, toward the centre of the dish.

Arrange unevenly shaped foods,• such as chicken pieces or salmon steaks, with the thicker, meatier parts

toward the outside of the dish.

Let It Stand: • After you remove the food from the microwave, cover food with casserole lid and let it stand to

nish cooking in the centre and avoid overcooking the outer edges. The length of standing time depends on

the density and surface area of the food.

Wrapping in waxed paper or paper towel:• Sandwiches and many other foods containing prebaked bread

should be wrapped prior to microwaving to prevent drying out.

SENSOR OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS

Sensor Cook allows you to cook most of your favourite

foods without selecting cooking times and power

levels. The display will indicate the sensing period by

scrolling the name of the food. The oven automatically

determines required cooking time for each food item.

When the internal sensor detects a certain amount

of humidity coming from the food, it will tell the oven

how much longer to cook. The display will show the

remaining heating time.

For best results when cooking by Sensor, follow these

recommendations:

1. Food cooked with the sensor system should be at

normal storage temperature.

2. Glass turntable and outside of container should be

dry to assure best cooking results.

3. Most foods should always be covered loosely with

microwavable plastic wrap, waxed paper, or a

microwave-safe lid.

4. Do not open the door or touch the STOP/CLEAR

pad during the sensing time. When sensing time is

over, the oven beeps and the remaining cooking

time will appear in the display window. At this time

you can open the door to stir, turn, or rearrange the

food.

See sensing chart on page 19.

IMPORTANT: When using sensor cook, the oven must

cool for 5 minutes between uses or food will not cook

properly.

SENSOR COOKING GUIDE

Appropriate containers and coverings help assure good

Sensor cooking results.

1. Always use microwavable containers and cover

them with microwave-safe lid or vented plastic

wrap.

2. Never use tight-sealing plastic covers. They can

prevent steam from escaping and cause food to

overcook.

3. Match the amount to the size of the container. Fill

containers at least half full for best results.

4. Be sure the outside of the cooking container and

the inside of the microwave oven are dry before

placing food in the oven. Beads of moisture turning

into steam can mislead the sensor.

NOTE: If food is not thoroughly cooked or reheated

when using the sensor feature, complete using a power

level and cooking time. DO NOT continue using the

sensor pad.

ADDING OR SUBTRACTING

COOK TIME

By using the More(9) or Less(1) pad all of the sensor

cook and time cook settings can be adjusted to cook

food for a longer or shorter time.
