LOCATION OF MODEL NUMBER

To request service information or replacement parts,

the service center will require the complete model

number of your microwave oven. The number is on the

oven front as shown in the illustration below.

OVEN SPECIFICATIONS

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

The oven is designed to operate on a Standard

120V/60Hz household outlet. Be sure the circuit is at

least 15A or 20A and the microwave oven is the only

appliance on the circuit. It is not designed for 50Hz

or any circuit other than a 120V/60Hz circuit.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. If an electrical

short circuit occurs, grounding reduces the risk of

electric shock by providing an escape wire for the

electric current. The appliance is equipped with a cord

having a grounded wire with a grounded plug.

Put the plug into an outlet that is properly installed and

grounded.

WARNING -

If you use the grounding

plug improperly, you risk electric shock.

Ask a qualified electrician if you do not understand the

grounding instructions or if you wonder whether the

appliance is properly grounded.

5

Because this appliance fits under the cabinet, it has a

short power-supply cord. See the separate Installation

Instructions for directions on placing the cord properly.

Keep the electrical power cord dry and do not pinch or

crush it in any way.

If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a

3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding

plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug

on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension

cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical

rating of the appliance.

For a permanently connected appliance:

This appliance must be connected to a grounded,

metallic, permanent wiring system, or an equipment

grounding conductor should be run with the circuit

conductors and connected to the equipment grounding

terminal or lead on the appliance.

Four defrost choices are preset in the oven. The defrost

feature provides you with the best defrosting method for

frozen foods, because the oven automatically sets the

defrosting times for each food item according to the

weight you enter. For added convenience, the DEFROST

includes a built-in tone mechanism that reminds you to

check, turn over, separate, or rearrange the food during

the defrost cycle. Four different defrosting options are

provided.

1. MEAT

2. POULTRY

3. FISH

4. BREAD

After touching DEFROST once, select the food category.

Available weight ranges for Meat, Poultry, and Fish are

0.1 to 6.0 lbs. The available weight range for Bread is 0.1

to 1.0 lb.

NOTE: After you touch START/ENTER, the display

counts down the defrost time. The oven will beep once

during the Defrost cycle. At this time, open the door and

turn, separate, or rearrange the food as needed. Remove

any portions that have thawed, then return frozen portions

to the oven and touch START/ENTER to resume the

defrost cycle. The oven will not stop during the BEEP

unless the door is opened.

For best results:

• Remove fish, shellfish, meat, and poultry from its original

closed paper or plastic package (wrapper). Otherwise,

the wrap will hold steam and juice close to the foods,

which can cause the outer surface of the foods to cook.

• Form the meat into the shape of a doughnut before

freezing. When defrosting, scrape off thawed meat when

the beep sounds and continue defrosting.

• Place foods in a shallow glass baking dish or a on a

microwave roasting rack to catch drippings.

• Foods should still be somewhat icy in the center when

removed from the oven.

Do not pull on slide-out hood or damage may occur.

Do not spill food or liquid on slide-out hood. Spillage

of liquid or food may result in electric shock or

oven malfunction.

•

To avoid risk of property damage:

Do not use rack to pop popcorn.

Rack must be on the four plastic supports

when used.

Use the rack only when cooking food on rack

position.

Do not cook with rack on floor of the oven.

The metal rack gives you extra space when cooking in

more than one container at the same time.

To use rack:

1. Place rack securely in the four plastic supports.

• Rack MUST NOT touch metal walls or back of

microwave oven.

2. Place equal amounts of food both ABOVE AND

BELOW rack.

• Amount of food must be approximately the same to

balance out cooking energy.

DEFROST TIPS

•

Example: To defrost for 2 minutes.

1. Touch DEFROST 3 times.

2. Enter the defrosting time you

want.

3. Touch START/ENTER.

(Defrost starts)

This feature allows you to choose the time you want to

defrost.

When the defrost time is over, four beeps will sound and

COOK END will display.

TIME DEFROST

•

When using

entered is the net weight in pounds and tenths of

pounds (the weight of the food minus the container).

• Before starting, make sure you have removed any

of the metal twist-ties which often come with frozen

food bags, and replace them with strings or elastic

bands.

• Open containers such as cartons before they are

placed in the oven.

• Always slit or pierce plastic pouches or packaging.

• If food is foil wrapped, remove foil and place food

in a suitable container.

• Slit the skins, if any, of frozen food such as

sausage.

• Bend plastic pouches of food to ensure even

defrosting.

•

Always underestimate defrosting time. If defrosted

food is still icy in the center, return it to the microwave

oven for more defrosting.

• The length of defrosting time varies according to

how solidly the food is frozen.

• The shape of the package affects how quickly food

will defrost. Shallow packages will defrost more

quickly than a deep block.

• As food begins to defrost, separate the pieces.

Separated pieces defrost more easily.

• Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts

of food such as chicken wings, leg tips, fish tails, or

areas that start to get warm. Make sure the foil does

not touch the sides, top, or bottom of the oven. The

foil can damage the oven lining.

•

For better results, let food stand after defrosting.

(For more information on standing time, see the

“Microwave Cooking Tips” section.)

•

Turn food over during defrosting or standing time.

Break apart and remove food as rquired.
