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 qualified 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 qualified electrician install a three-slot

receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a separate

60 hertz circuit with the electrical rating as shown in

specifications 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.

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 cook 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 center to distribute the heat evenly and speed

cooking. Constant stirring is not necessary.

•

Turn over foods like pork chops, baking potatoes, roasts, or whole cauliflower halfway through the cooking time to

expose all sides equally to microwave energy.

•

Place delicate areas of foods, such as asparagus tips, toward the center 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.

•

Shield, with small pieces of aluminum foil, parts of food that may cook quickly, such as wing tips and leg ends of

poultry.

•

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

finish cooking in the center 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.

DEFROST TIPS

•

When using AUTO DEFROST, the

weight to be entered is the net weight in

pounds and tenths of pounds (the weight

of the food minus the container).

•

Use AUTO DEFROST only for raw

food. AUTO DEFROST gives best

results when food to be thawed is a

minimum of 0°F (taken directly from a

true freezer). If food has been stored

in a refrigerator-freezer that does not

maintain a temperature of 5°F or below,

always program a lower food weight (for

a shorter defrosting time) to prevent

cooking the food.

•

If the food is stored outside the freezer

for up to 20 minutes, enter a lower food

weight.

•

The shape of the package alters the

defrosting time. Shallow rectangular

packets defrost more quickly than a

deep block.

AUTO DEFROST

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 according to the weight

you enter. For added convenience, the

AUTO DEFROST beeps to remind you

to check or turn over the food during the

defrost cycle.

After touching the AUTO DEFROST pad

once, enter the food weight. Available

weight ranges are 0.1 to 6.0 lbs.

Example: To defrost 1.2 lbs of

meat.

1. Touch AUTO

DEFROST pad.

2. Enter the weight.

(0.1-6.0 lbs.)

3. Touch ENTER/

START pad.

NOTES:

•

After you touch ENTER/START

pad, the display counts down the

defrost time. The oven will beep

twice during the Defrost cycle.

At this time, open the door and

turn the food as needed. Remove

any portions that have thawed or

separate pieces then return frozen

portions to the oven and touch

ENTER/START

pad to resume the

defrost cycle.

•

The oven will not stop during

the BEEP unless the door is

opened.

DEFROSTING GUIDE

•

Follow the instructions below when

defrosting different types of food.

Food

Standard

Amount

Procedure

Roast

Beef,

Pork

2.5-6.0 lbs.

Start with the food

placed fat side down.

After each stage, turn

the food over and shield

any warm portions

with narrow strips

of aluminum foil. Let

stand, covered, for 15

to 30 minutes.

•

Separate pieces as they begin to defrost.

Separated pieces defrost more easily.

•

Shield areas of food with small pieces of

foil if they start to become warm.

•

You can use small pieces of aluminum

foil to shield foods like chicken wings, leg

tips, and fish tails, but the foil must not

touch the side of the oven. Foil causes

arcing, which can damage the oven

lining.

1POUND DEFROST

The 1POUND DEFROST feature provides

a rapid defrost for 1.0 pound frozen food.

The oven automatically sets the defrosting

time.

Example: To defrost 1lb. ground

beef.

1. Touch 1POUND

DEFROST

pad.

2. Touch ENTER/

START

pad.

WIRE RACK

CAUTION

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 wire 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.

IMPORTANT:

• DO NOT store or use the wire

rack in this oven unless more

than one item is being cooked or

a recipe calls for it.

• Damage to the oven could occur.
