MICROWAVE HOOD COMBINATION SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow

instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can

happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, electric

shock, fire, injury to persons, or exposure to excessive

microwave energy:

[] Read all instructions before using the microwave oven.

[] Read and follow the specific "PRECAUTIONS TO

AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE

MICROWAVE ENERGY" found in this section.

[] The microwave oven must be grounded. Connect only

to properly grounded outlet. See "GROUNDING

INSTRUCTIONS" found in this section and in the

provided Installation Instructions.

[] Install or locate the microwave oven only in

accordance with the provided Installation Instructions.

[] Some products such as whole eggs in the shell and

sealed containers - for example, closed glass jars -

are able to explode and should not be heated in the

microwave oven.

[] Use the microwave oven only for its intended use as

described in this manual. Do not use corrosive

chemicals or vapors in the microwave oven. This type

of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or dry

food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.

[] As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary

when used by children.

[] Do not operate the microwave oven if it has a

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

if it has been damaged or dropped.

[] The microwave oven should be serviced only by

qualified service personnel. Call an authorized service

company for examination, repair, or adjustment.

[] See door surface cleaning instructions in the

"Microwave Oven Care" section.

[] To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

- Do not overcook food. Carefully attend the microwave oven

when paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed

inside the oven to facilitate cooking.

- Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before

placing bags in oven.

- 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.

- Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave

paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when

not in use.

[] Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated

beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling. 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

THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER

UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE MQUID.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

- Do not overheat the liquid.

- Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.

- Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

- After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave

oven for a short time before removing the container.

- Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into

the container.

[] Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should not be

inserted in the microwave oven as they may create a fire or risk

of electric shock.

[] Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn off the

pad and touch electrical parts involving a risk of electric shock.

Parts and Features Not Shown

Turntable

Browning pan and handle

The oven has a durable, nonstick coating that resists soil buildup

by making cleaning easier than in conventional microwave ovens.

See "General Cleaning" section for cleaning instructions.

The microwave system featuring OPTIMAWAVE TM Plus

Technology delivers a constant stream of microwave power - true

high, medium and low power - to provide consistent, even

results.

Typically, microwave ovens operate on HIGH power only. For

example, to achieve a 50% power level ("medium") in a typical

microwave oven, the oven operates 50% of the time at HIGH

power and 50% of the time OFE

In contrast, microwave ovens utilizing this microwave system

deliver the selected power level continuously. This constant

stream of microwave power helps to minimize overcooking of

foods and messy food spatters.

Sensor Cooking

The microwave system features sensor cooking functions. A

humidity sensor in the oven cavity detects moisture and humidity

emitted from food as it heats. The sensor adjusts cooking times

to various types and amounts of food. Sensor cooking takes the

guesswork out of microwave cooking.

MICROWAVE OVEN USE

A magnetron in the oven produces microwaves which reflect off

the metal floor, walls and ceiling and pass through the turntable

and appropriate cookware to the food. Microwaves are attracted

to and absorbed by fat, sugar and water molecules in the food,

causing them to move, producing friction and heat which cooks

the food.

• Do not lean on or allow children to swing on the microwave

oven door.

• Do not operate microwave oven when it is empty.

• The turntable must be in place and correct side up when

microwave oven is in use. Do not use if turntable is chipped

or broken. See "Assistance or Service" section to reorder.

• Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in

microwave oven.

• Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, paper, including

brown paper bags and newspaper, should not be dried in

microwave oven.

• Do not use the microwave oven for canning, sterilizing or

deep frying. The microwave oven cannot maintain

appropriate temperatures.

• Paraffin wax will not melt in the microwave oven because it

does not absorb microwaves.

• Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing containers from

microwave oven.

• Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended

cook time, potatoes should be slightly firm. Let potatoes

stand for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.

• Do not cook or reheat whole eggs inside the shell. Steam

buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst. Cover

poached eggs and allow a standing time.

I00< <

When microwave cooking, the amount, size and shape, starting

temperature, composition and density of the food affect cooking

results.

Amount of Food

The more food heated at once, the longer the cook time needed.

Check for doneness and add small increments of time if

necessary.

Size and Shape

Smaller pieces of food will cook more quickly than larger pieces,

and uniformly shaped foods cook more evenly than irregularly

shaped food.

Starting Temperature

Room temperature foods will heat faster than refrigerated foods,

and refrigerated foods will heat faster than frozen foods.

Composition and Density

Foods high in fat and sugar will reach a higher temperature, and

will heat faster than other foods. Heavy, dense foods, such as

meat and potatoes, require a longer cook time than the same size

of a light, porous food, such as cake.

Covering

Covering food helps retain moisture, shorten cook time and

reduce spattering. Use the lid supplied with cookware. If a lid is

not available, wax paper, paper towels or plastic wrap approved

for microwave ovens may be used. Plastic wrap should be turned

back at one corner to provide an opening to vent steam.

Condensation on the door and cavity surfaces is normal during

heavy cooking.

Stirring and Turning

Stirring and turning redistribute heat evenly to avoid overcooking

the outer edges of food. Stir from outside to center. If possible,

turn food over from bottom to top.

Arranging

If heating irregularly shaped or different sized foods, arrange the

thinner parts and smaller sized items toward the center. If

cooking several items of the same size and shape, place them in

a ring pattern, leaving the center of the ring empty.

Piercing

Before heating, use a fork or small knife to pierce or prick foods

that have a skin or membrane, such as potatoes, egg yolks,

chicken livers, hot dogs, and sausage. Prick in several places to

allow steam to vent.

Shielding

Use small, flat pieces of aluminum foil to shield the thin pieces of

irregularly shaped foods, bones and foods such as chicken

wings, leg tips and fish tail. See "Aluminum Foil and Metal" first.

Standing Time

Food will continue to cook by the natural conduction of heat even

after the microwave cooking cycle ends. The length of standing

time depends on the volume and density of the food.

Cookware and dinnerware must fit on the turntable. Always use

oven mitts or pot holders when handling because any dish may

become hot from heat transferred from the food. Do not use

cookware and dinnerware with gold or silver trim. Use the

following chart as a guide, then test before using.

MATERIAL RECOMMENDATIONS

Do not use cookware or dinnerware if it becomes hot and the

water stays cool.

Always use oven mitts or pot holders when removing dishes from

the microwave oven.

Aluminum foil and some metal can be used in the microwave

oven. If not used properly, arcing (a blue flash of light) can occur

and cause damage to the microwave oven.

OK for Use

Racks and bakeware supplied with the microwave oven (on some

models), aluminum foil for shielding, and approved meat

thermometers may be used with the following guidelines:

• Do not allow aluminum foil or metal to touch the inside cavity

walls, ceiling or floor.

• Always use the turntable.

• Do not allow contact with another metal object during

cooking.

Do Not Use
