16. For best operation, plug this appliance into its

own electrical outlet, to prevent flickering of

lights, blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit

breaker.

17.Some products such as whole eggs and sealed

containers - for example, closed jars - are able to

explode and should not be heated in this oven. In

rare instances, poached eggs have been known to

explode. Cover poached eggs and allow standing

time of one minute before cutting into them.

18. Foods with unbroken outer “skin” such as potatoes,

sausages, tomatoes, apples, chicken livers and other

giblets, and egg yolks (see previous caution) should

be pierced to allow steam to escape during cooking.

“Boilable” cooking pouches and tightly closed

plastic bags should be slit, pierced or vented.

19.Do not heat, store or use flammable materials in or

near the oven. Fumes can create a fire hazard or

explosion.

10. Use this appliance only for its intended use as

described in this manual. Do not use corrosive

chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This type of

oven is specifically designed to heat, cook or defrost

food. It is not designed for industrial, laboratory or

commercial use. it is intended for home use only.

11. As with any appliance, close supervision is

necessary when used by children.

12. Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged

cord or plug, if it is not working properly or if it has

been damaged or dropped.

18. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

19. When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that come

together on closing the door, use only mild, non-

abrasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge

or soft cloth.

20. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

a. Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance

when paper, plastic or other combustible materials

are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.

Avoid using recycled paper products. Do not use

newspaper or other printed paper in the oven.

Such products sometimes contain impurities

which could ignite.

b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags

before placing them in oven.

c. 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.

d. Do not use the oven for storage. Do not leave

paper products, cooking utensils or food in the

oven when not in use.

Do not pop popcorn except in a microwave approved

popcorn popper or in a commercial package

WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns,

electric shock, fire, injury to persons or

exposure to excessive microwave energy:

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS cont.

23. To avoid exposure to dangerous high voltage, DO

NOT REMOVE THE SPLATTER SHIELD

inside the oven cavity.

24.

Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to

be overheated beyond the boiling point without

appearing to be boiling due to surface tension of

the liquid. 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 A SPOON OR OTHER

UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

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.

25. Read and follow specific microwave oven

preparation instructions on food packages or

containers (especially baby food). Above all, this

is a cooking appliance designed to prepare food.

26. Use only cooking utensils and accessories made for

use in the microwave and specifically described in

this manual.

27. Microwave oven manufacturers do not recommend

deep fat frying or frying in a microwave oven. Hot

oil can damage oven parts and utensils and even

result in skin burns.

28. Plastic wrap : Use only those types designed for

microwave oven use and avoid forming an air-tight

seal. Fold back a small corner or cut a small slit to

allow steam to escape.

29. Stay near the appliance while it is in use and check

cooking progress frequently. Leaving the appliance

unattended may reslut in overcooked food and

possibly a fire in your oven.

30. Foods cooked in liquids (such as pasta) may tend

to boil over more rapidly than foods containing less

moisture. Should this occur, refer to the Care and

Cleaning section for insturctions on how to clean the

inside of the oven.

31. Do not use a thermometer in food you are

microwaving unless the thermometer is designed or

recommended for use in the microwave oven.

32. Plastic cookware designed for microwave cooking is

very useful, but should be used carefully. Even

microwave-safe plastic may not be as tolerant of

overcooking conditions as are glass or ceramic

materials and may soften or char if subjected to

short periods of overcooking. In longer exposures to

overcooking, the food and cookware could ignite.

For these reasons:1) Use microwave-safe plastics

only and use them in strict compliance with the

cookware manufacturer’s recommendations. 2) Do

not subject empty cookware to microwaving. 3) Do

not permit children to use plastic cookware without

complete supervision.

33. Do not store anythig directly on top of the

microwave oven surface when the oven is in

operation.

34. TV dinners may be microwaved in foil trays less

than 3/4” deep; remove top foil cover and return tray

to box. When using metal in microwave oven, keep

metal at least 1 inch away from the sides of the

oven.

35. Do not defrost frozen beverages in narrow necked

bottles.

36. Cookware may become hot because of heat

transferred from the heated food. Potholders may be

needed to handle the cookware.

37. Do not try to melt paraffin wax in the oven. Paraffin

wax will not melt in a microwave oven because it

allows microwaves to pass through it.

38. Never use sharp-edged utensils in or near the oven.

39. Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be careful

when opening containers of hot food, including

popcorn bags, cooking pouches and boxes. To

prevent possible injury, direct steam away from

hands and face.

40. Clean the vent hood often. Do not allow grease to

build up on the hood or the filter.

41. Use care when cleaning the vent hood filter.

Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based oven

cleaners, may damage the filter.

42. When flaming foods are under the hood, turn the

fan off. The fan, if operating may spread the flame.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Installation Recommendations

Cooking appliances installed under the microwave oven

may, under some heavy usage conditions, cause

temperatures high enough to overheat some internal

parts of the microwave oven.

To prevent overheating from taking place, the exhaust

fan is designed to automatically turn on at a low speed if

excessive temperatures occur. Should this happen, the

fan cannot be manually turned off, but it will

automatically turn off when the internal parts have

cooled. The fan may stay on for up to an hour after the

range and microwave oven controls have been turned

off.

◆

Make sure all cookware used in your microwave

oven is suitable for microwaving. Most glass cooking

dishes, measuring cups, custard cups, pottery or china

dinnerware, which does not have metallic trim or

glaze with metallic sheen, can be used.

◆

If you are not sure if a dish is microwave-safe, use

this test: Place in the oven the dish you are testing and

a glass measuring cup filled with one cup of water.

Set the measuring cup either in or next to the dish.

Microwave 1 minute at high. If the dish heats, it

should not be used for microwaving. If the dish

remains cool and only the water in the cup heats, then

the dish is microwave-safe.

◆Paper towels, waxed paper and plastic wrap can be

used to cover dishes in order to retain moisture and

prevent spattering. Be sure to vent plastic wrap so

steam can escape.

Remove all packing materials both outside and inside the

oven before using the oven. The oven requires free

movement of air for proper operation. Do NOT block air

vents located by the top air grill and underneath the oven.

Grounding Instructions

This appliance 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. This appliance is equipped with a

cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.

The plug must be plugged into a 120v, 15amp. outlet

that is properly installed and grounded.

Consult a qualified electrician or service technician if

the grounding instructions are not completely

understood or if doubt exists as to whether the

appliance is properly grounded.

Where standard two-prong wall receptacle is

encountered, it is your personal reponsibility and

obligation to have it replaced with a properly

grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

Do not under any circumstance cut or remove the

third (ground) prong from the power cord. Do not use

an adapter plug with this appliance. See pages 1 and

2 of the Installation Manual for acceptable extension

cord specifications.

Interference Note

Microwave ovens generate radio frequency energy

during operation and if not installed properly may

cause interference to radio and television reception.

You can determine if this unit is causing interference

by turning it on and off while the interference is

occurring. If interference occurs, it may be corrected

by one or more of the following measures:

◆clean door and seal surfaces of the oven;

◆reorient the television or radio receiving antenna;

◆the oven with respect to the television or radio

receiver, and/or

◆

Plug the oven into a different oulet so that it and the

television or radio receiver are on different circuits.

If the interference persists, you may want to consult

an experienced radio/television technician for

additional

WARNING - Improper use of the grounding

plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

Operating Basics

The power levels on your microwave oven can

be compared to the surface units on a range.

High (power level 10) or full power is the fastest

way to cook and gives you 100% power.

Each power level gives you microwave energy

for a certain percent of time, for example, power

level 7 is microwave energy 70% of the time.

Most of your cooking will be done on High

(Power Level 10). a lower setting will cook

more evenly and with less attention given to

stirring or rotating the food. Some foods may

have better flavor, texture or appearance if one

of the lower settings is used. You may wish to

use a lower power level when cooking foods that

have a tendency to boil over, such as scalloped

potatoes. Cooking times will increase as power

level decreases.

Power Level Best Uses

High 10 Fish, bacon, vegetables,

boiling liquids.

Medium 7 Gentle cooking of meat and

Poultry, baking casseroles

and reheating.

Medium 5 Slow cooking and

tenderizing for stews

and less tender cuts of meat.

Low 3 Defrosting, simmering,

delicate sauces.

Warm 1 Keeping food warm without

overcooking, softening

butter.

Operating Basics

Defrost by Time Guide (Power Level 3)

1. Do not defrost covered meat. Covering might allow

cooking to take place. Always remove outer wrap

and tray. Place food on a microwave-safe rack in a

dish.

2. Begin defrosting whole poultry breast-side-down.

Begin defrosting roasts fat-side-down.

3. The shape of the package alters the defrosting time.

Shallow rectangular shapes defrost more quickly

than a deep block.

4. Auto Defrost is programmed for specific weights.

Defrost results will be affected if you enter an

incorrect weight.

5. Auto Defrost is programmed for frozen food at 0˚ F.

If food is stored at a higher temperature, expect

shorter defrost times.

6. After 1/3 of the defrost time has elapsed, check the

food. You may wish to turn over, break apart,

rearrange or remove thawed portions of the food.

7. During Auto Defrost, the oven will prompt you to

turn the food over. At this point, open oven door

and check the food. Follow the techniques listed

below for optimum defrost results. Then, close oven

door, touch the START Pad to complete defrosting.

◆Turn Over : Roast, ribs, whole poultry, turkey

breasts, hot dogs, sausages, steaks, or chops.

◆

Rearrange : Break apart or separate steaks, chops,

hamburger patties, ground meat, chicken or

seafood pieces, chunks of meat such as stew beef.

◆

Shield : Use small strips of aluminum foil to

protect thin areas or edges of unevenly shaped

foods such as chicken wings. To prevent arching,

do not allow foil to come within 1-inch of oven

walls or door.

◆Remove : To prevent cooking, thawed protions

should be removed from the oven at this point.

This may shorten defrost time for foods weighing

less than 3-lbs.

8. After defrosting, allow food to stand 5 to 10 minutes

if there are any icy areas. If large solid roasts, such

as sirloin tip or rump roasts, are not completely

thawed after standing, return roast to oven and

program Auto Defrost for 1 lb.
