IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTION

Recognize this symbol as a SAFETY message

WARNING

WHEN USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE FOLLOWED TO REDUCE THE RISK OF BURNS, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, FIRE, INJURY TO PERSONS, OR EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY:

1. READ all instructions before using the appliance.

2. READ AND FOLLOW the specific “PRECAUTIONS

TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY” found on

page 6.

3. This appliance MUST BE GROUNDED. Connect only to properly grounded outlet. See “GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS” on page 7.

4. This microwave oven was designed for

installation over ranges with maximum width of 42 inches. It may be installed over both gas and

electric cooking equipment.

5. Install or locate this appliance ONLY in accordance with the provided installation instructions.

6. Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers -- for example, closed glass jars -- may explode and SHOULD NOT be HEATED in this oven.

7. 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 or cook. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.

8. As with any appliance, CLOSE SUPERVISION is necessary when used by CHILDREN.

9. 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.

10. This appliance should be serviced ONLY by qualified service personnel. Contact nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.

11. DO NOT cover or block any openings on the appliance.

12. DO NOT store this appliance outdoors. DO NOT use this product near water -- for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.

13. DO NOT immerse cord or plug in water.

14. Keep cord AWAY from HEATED surfaces.

15. DO NOT let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

16. See door cleaning instructions on page 20.

17. Exhaust Hood:

• Have installed and properly grounded by a

qualified installer. See the special installation booklet packed with the microwave oven.

• The exhaust fan in the oven will operate

automatically under certain conditions (see Automatic Fan Feature). While the fan is operating, caution is required to prevent the starting and spreading of accidental cooking fires.

• Never leave surface units unattended at

high heat settings. Boilovers cause

smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite and spread if exhaust fan is operating. To minimize automatic fan operation, use adequate sized cookware and use high heat only when necessary.

Page 5

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE IN THE OVEN CAVITY:

a. DO NOT overcook food. Carefully attend appliance if paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the

oven to facilitate cooking. b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in oven. c. If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep oven door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the power cord, or shut

off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

IF THE DOOR IS OPENED THE FIRE MAY SPREAD! d. DO NOT use the cavity for storage purposes. DO NOT leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when

not in use. THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE SERVICED ONLY BY QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL. CONTACT YOUR NEAREST AUTHORIZED SERVICE FACILITY FOR EXAMINATION, REPAIR OR ADJUSTMENT.

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID

POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE

MICROWAVE ENERGY

(a) DO NOT attempt to operate this oven with the door

open since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks.

(b) DO NOT place any object between the oven front

face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.

Caution

To avoid personal injury or property damage, observe

the following:

1. Always press STOP/RESET before programming oven.

2. Do not deep fat fry in oven. Fat could overheat and be hazardous to handle.

3. Do not cook or reheat eggs in shell or with an unbroken yolk. Pressure may build up and erupt. Pierce yolk with a fork or knife before cooking. Do not reheat previously cooked eggs in the microwave oven unless finely chopped or scrambled.

4. Pierce skin of potatoes, tomatoes, or other foods with a "skin" before cooking in microwave oven. This allows steam to escape during cooking.

5. Remove excess fat from meats and poultry to prevent splattering.

6. Do not heat baby bottles in microwave oven.

7. Do not home can in microwave oven. Home canning is generally done with metal lids. Since metal lids reflect heat, product may not be heated uniformly to 212°F or above. Food could deteriorate. USDA Extension Specialists do not recommend home canning in microwave ovens.

8. Briskly stir or pour liquids before heating to prevent spontaneous boiling or eruption. Do not overheat. If air is not mixed into a liquid, liquid can erupt in oven or after removal from oven.

particularly important that the oven door close properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) door (bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces.

(d) The oven should NOT be adjusted or repaired by

anyone except properly qualified service personnel.

9. All uncooked foods should be heated to a final internal temperature of at least 165°F. Some foods require higher temperatures. These recommended temperatures kill most food borne, disease causing organisms. Some common visual signs that indicate the cooking temperature has been reached:

• Food steams throughout, not just around edges.

• Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.

10. If using a microwave popcorn popper, use according to manufacturer's instructions. Do not continue to heat after popping has stopped. Popcorn will scorch or burn. Do not leave oven unattended.

11. Use only popcorn in packages designed and labeled for microwave use. Pop according to package directions, beginning with the minimum amount of time recommended. Use caution when handling hot popcorn bag.

Page 7

12. Microwave convenience foods are often packaged in specially designed packaging. Special plates, lids, containers, or other unique packaging materials may be used. Susceptor packing material (a thin, metalized plastic film) is frequently used to help brown and crispen foods such as microwave pizzas, french fries, or fish sticks. Be sure to follow food package instructions carefully. Contact convenience food manufacturer with questions concerning these products. Amana Refrigeration, Inc. does not endorse any brand of microwave convenience foods, or any type of microwave food packaging.

13. Do not operate microwave oven empty. This could damage the oven.

14. Do not use regular cooking thermometers in oven. Most cooking thermometers contain mercury and may cause “arcing”, malfunction, and/or damage to oven.

15. Metal or ceramic accessories which are designed to absorb microwave energy to provide heat may be used with caution. Test device before use (See "Microwave Cooking section"). Read and follow manufacturer's instructions provided with the accessory. Contact accessory manufacturer with questions concerning these accessories. Amana Refrigeration, Inc., does not endorse any brand of accessory.

16. Never use newspapers in oven since paper may ignite.

17. Pierce or open plastic bags (and other airtight containers) before heating in microwave oven. This allows steam to escape during cooking.

18. Containers may become hot and pot holders may be needed.

19. Closely supervise use by children. Make sure they can read instructions and reach controls. Never allow them to lean or swing on oven door.

Electrical Requirements

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE ROUND GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE PLUG OR BEND THE POWER PRONGS TO FIT A RECEPTACLE OTHER THAN THE ONE SHOWN FOR YOUR OVEN. SUCH ABUSE OF THE PLUG CAN RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR OVERHEATING.

WARNING -- IMPROPER USE OF THE GROUNDING PLUG

CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR DEATH.

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 an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. DO NOT use a two-prong adapter.

Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance 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 the appropriate drawing at left. When a microwave oven is on a circuit with other appliances, an increase in cooking times may be required and fuses can be blown.

Microwave Cooking

Food Placement

Allow space between foods for proper cooking results. For best results, arrange thickest or hardest to cook portion of food toward outside of dish. Place smaller, easier to cook portions toward center.

Reheating

When reheating food, cover dish loosely with plastic wrap. Heat at full power. Reheat porous items such as breads and cakes for a minimum amount of time. Stir soups, sauces and beverages vigorously before reheating.

Defrosting

It is important that most foods, especially meats, be totally defrosted before cooking. Determine foods are totally defrosted, by inserting sharp knife in center of food and checking for remaining ice crystals. Turn large food items over during defrosting, for best results.

Microwave Utensils

Recommended utensils include: glass, glass-ceramic,

natural fiber cloth, non-recycled paper, plastic and wood.

Browning

Some foods prepared in microwave will not brown the same as if done in conventional oven. This is particularly true for baked goods, such as breads and cakes.

Shielding

Porous, thin and protruding portions of large food items, such as poultry drumsticks, can be covered with thin strips of foil to prevent overcooking.

Piercing

Membranes or tight skins on foods, such as egg yolks, potatoes, tomatoes, and squash must be pierced. Piercing allows steam to escape during cooking.

Not Recommended utensils include: aluminum foil, grocery bags, lead crystal, metal, metallic trimmed china, newspapers and recycled paper.

Utensil Check Test

Use the following test to check utensils for microwave

safeness:

1. Place glass measuring cup of water next to empty dish to be tested in microwave oven.

2. Heat on full power for one minute.

3. Check temperature of dish and water.

If dish remains cool and water is hot, dish is microwave safe. If dish is slightly warm, use for short term cooking only. If dish is hot and water is cool, do not use. Dish remains cool if not absorbing microwaves and microwaves are being absorbed by water. Dish becomes

hot if absorbing microwaves.

Microwave Cooking Principles

Decrease cooking times when:

Foods are high in fat and sugar. Foods are porous. Foods are flat, thin or prepared in shallow pan.

Increase cooking times when:

Foods are thick and dense. Foods are frozen or refrigerator temperature. Food volume increases.

Preventing Excess Moisture

When cooking foods in a microwave oven, a considerable amount of steam/water vapor can be generated and accumulate on foods and inside of oven. This is caused by hot moist air from food coming in contact with cool surfaces inside oven. Use the following procedures to help reduce moisture buildup.

• Cover foods before cooking in microwave.

• Cover potatoes and fresh vegetables with a microwave-

safe paper towel before cooking to help absorb excess moisture. Remove paper towel immediately after cooking to prevent vegetables from reabsorbing moisture.

• Open microwave door immediately after cooking to

reduce moisture inside oven.

Page 20

Care and Cleaning

Interior, Exterior and Door

If walls, floor, and door of microwave oven become splattered, wipe with paper towel or clean with mild detergent in warm water using soft sponge or cloth. Wring sponge or cloth to remove excess water before wiping oven. If desired, boil a cup of water in microwave oven to loosen soil before cleaning.

Exhaust Maintenance

Exhaust hood is equipped with two metal filters which collect grease. Never operate oven without filters in place. In situations where flaming might occur on surfaces below hood, filters will stop entry of flames into unit. When fan is operated, air is drawn through filters. Depending on installation, it is either discharged through venting to outside or drawn through charcoal filter and recirculated.

Removing grease filters:

1. Grasp tab on filter and slide to rear.

2. Pull filter downward to front. Filter will drop out.

Cleaning grease filters:

Grease filters should be cleaned at least once a month to remove residue. Clean filters by soaking and agitating in warm sudsy water. Do not use ammonia or ammonia products, they will darken metal. Light brushing can be used to remove embedded dirt. Rinse, shake and remove moisture before replacing.

• Do not use cleaners containing ammonia.

These could damage finish.

• Never pour water into microwave oven bottom.

• Do not use abrasives to clean inside of oven.

Abrasives may damage oven finish.

Replacing grease filters:

1. Slide filter into frame slot on back of opening.

2. Pull filter upward to front.

3. Lock in place. Note: Do not operate vent hood with filters removed.

Grease Filters

Charcoal Filter (recirculating installation only)

Microwave oven can be recirculated instead of being vented to outside. For recirculating installation, charcoal filter must be used. Charcoal filter removes smoke and odors caused by cooking on range top. Charcoal filter is disposable and should be replaced when it is noticeably dirty or discolored (approximately every 6 to 12 months, depending on usage). Charcoal filter may be purchased from dealer.

Note: • Do not clean charcoal filter.

• Do not operate vent hood with charcoal filter

removed.

To remove charcoal filter:

1. Disconnect power at main fuse, circuit breaker panel or pull plug.

2. Remove two screws that hold grille in place.

3. Remove grille.

4. Grasp filter, slide toward front of oven and remove.

Caution

To avoid personal injury, do not operate microwave oven without filters in place.

To install new charcoal filter:

1. Remove plastic and other outer wrapping from new filter.

2. Insert filter into top opening of oven as shown. Filter will rest at an angle, on two side support tabs.

3. Replace grille.

4. Replace two screws to secure grille.
