Installation Instructions

wWARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
Electrical requirements
Observe all governing codes and ordinances. A 120 Volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp fused electrical supply is required. (A time-delay fuse is recommended.) It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.
Before you begin operating the oven, carefully read the following instructions.
1. Empty the microwave oven and clean inside it with a soft, damp cloth. Check for damage such as a door that isn’t lined up correctly, damage around the door, or dents inside the oven or on the exterior. If there is any damage, do not operate the oven until an authorized service tech­nician has checked it and made any needed repairs.
2. Put the oven on a cart, counter, table, or shelf that is strong enough to hold the oven and the food and utensils you put in it. (The control side of the unit is
the heavy side. Use care when han­dling the oven.) The weight of the oven
is about 50 lbs (23 kg). The microwave oven should be at a temperature above 50°F (10°C) for proper operation.
wWARNING
legs are in place to ensure proper airflow. If vents are blocked, a sensitive thermal safety device automatically turns the oven off. The oven will not work until it has cooled.
Power supply cord
Air intake openings

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For all cord connected appliances: The microwave oven 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. The microwave 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.
WARNING: Improper use of the
grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or service­man if the
grounding instructions are not
completely understood
, or if doubt exists as to whether the microwave oven is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the microwave oven.
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.

Getting to Know Your
Microwaves pass through most glass, paper, and plastics without heating them so food absorbs the energy. Microwaves bounce off metal containers so food does not absorb the energy.
Microwave Oven
This section discusses the concepts behind microwave cooking. It also shows you the basics you need to know to operate your microwave oven. Please read this information before you use your oven.
How your microwave oven works
Microwave ovens are safe. Microwave energy is not hot. It causes food to make its own heat, and it’s this heat that cooks the food. Microwaves are like TV waves, radio­waves, or light waves. You cannot see them, but you can see what they do.
A magnetron in the microwave oven produces microwaves. The microwaves move into the oven where they contact food as it turns on the turntable.
The glass turntable of your microwave oven lets microwaves pass through. Then they bounce off a metal floor, back through the glass turntable, and are absorbed by the food.
Magnetron
Metal floor
Glass turntable
Oven cavity

Radio interference

Using your microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV, or similar equipment. When there is interference, you can reduce it or remove it by:
Cleaning the door and sealing surfaces of the oven.
Adjusting the receiving antenna of the radio or television.
Moving the receiver away from the microwave oven.
Plugging the microwave oven into a different outlet so that the microwave oven and receiver are on different branch circuits.

For the best cooking results

Always cook food for the shortest cooking time recommended. Check to see how the food is cooking. If needed, touch the ADD MINUTE pad while the oven is operating or after the cooking cycle is over (see the “Using ADD MINUTE” section).
Stir, turn over, or rearrange the food being cooked about halfway through the cooking time for all recipes. This will help make sure the food is evenly cooked.
If you do not have a cover for a dish, use wax paper, or microwave-approved paper towels or plastic wrap. Remember to turn back a corner of the plastic wrap to vent steam during cooking.
Testing your microwave oven
To test the oven put about 1 cup (250 ml) of cold water in a glass container in the oven. Close the door. Make sure it latches. Cook at 100% power for 2 minutes. When the time is up, the water should be heated.
7
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN

Testing your dinnerware or cookware

Test dinnerware or cookware before using.
To test a dish for safe use, put it into the oven with a cup of water beside it. Cook at 100% cook power for one minute.
If the dish gets
hot and water stays cool, do not use it.
Some dishes (melamine, some ceramic dinnerware, etc.) absorb microwave energy,
becoming too hot to handle and slowing cooking times. Cooking in metal containers not designed for microwave use could damage the oven, as could containers with hidden metal (twist-ties, foil lining, staples, metallic glaze or trim).
• When you use a browning dish, the browning dish bottom must be at least 3⁄16 inch (5mm) above the turntable. Follow the directions supplied with the browning dish.
• Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs
may cause them to burst, and possibly damage the oven. Slice hard-boiled eggs before heating. In rare cases, poached eggs have been known to explode. Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time of one minute before cutting into them.
• For best results, stir any liquid several times before heating or reheating.
Liquids heated in certain containers (especially containers shaped like cylinders) may become overheated. The liquid may splash out with a loud noise during or after heating or when adding ingredients (coffee granules, tea bags,

Operating safety precautions

• Never lean on the door or allow a child to swing on it when the door is open.
• Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not heat containers, but heat from the food can make the container hot.
• Do not use newspaper or other printed paper in the oven.
• Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, paper, gourds, or clothes in the oven.
• Do not start a microwave oven when it is empty. Product life may be shortened. If you practice programming the oven, put a container of water in the oven. It is normal for the oven door to look wavy after the oven has been running for a while.
• 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.
• Do not operate the microwave oven unless the glass turntable is securely in place and can rotate freely. The turntable can rotate in either direction. Make sure the turntable is correct-side up in the oven. Handle your turntable with care when removing it from the oven to avoid possibly breaking it. If your turntable cracks or breaks, contact your dealer for a replacement.
8
etc.). This can harm the oven.
• Microwaves may not reach the center of a roast. The heat spreads to the center from the outer, cooked areas just as in regular oven cooking. This is one of the reasons for letting some foods (for example, roasts or baked potatoes) stand for a while after cooking, or for stirring some foods during the cooking time.
• Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable cookware is not suitable and it is difficult to maintain appropriate deep frying temperatures.
• Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended cooking time, potatoes should be slightly firm because they will continue cooking during standing time. After microwaving, let potatoes stand for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.

Electrical connection

If the incoming voltage to the microwave is less than 110 volts, cooking times may be longer. Have a qualified electrician check your electrical system.

Weight conversion chart
You are probably used to food weights as being in pounds and ounces that are fractions of a pound (for example, 4 ounces (113.4 g) equals 1⁄4 pound). However, in order to enter food weight in DEFROST, you must specify pounds and tenths of a pound. If the weight on the food pack­age is in fractions of a pound, you can use the following chart to convert the weight to decimals.
EQUIVALENT WEIGHT
OUNCES GRAMS DECIMAL WEIGHT
1.6 45.4 .10
3.2 90.7 .20
4.0 113.4 .25 One-Quarter Pound
4.8 136.1 .30
6.4 181.4 .40
8.0 226.8 .50 One-Half Pound
9.6 272.2 .60

12.8 362.9 .80
14.4 408.2 .90
16.0 453.6 1.00 One Pound
Defrosting tips
When using DEFROST, the weight to be 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 pack- aging.
If food is foil wrapped, remove foil and place it 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 accord- ing 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 “Microwave cooking tips” in the “Cooking Guide” section.)
Turn over food during defrosting or standing time. Break apart and remove food as required.

Your microwave oven has a sensor that detects the humidity released by the food. The amount of humidity detected tells the oven how long to cook or heat your food. The sensor is used by 3 special functions: SENSOR COOK, SENSOR REHEAT, and SENSOR POPCORN. The simple instructions for these functions are on the following pages.

Using SENSOR COOK

SENSOR COOK has preset cook powers for cooking 10 different types of food.
NOTES:
If you want to cook by entering a time
and cook power, see “Microwave cook­ing guide” in the “Cooking Guide” sec­tion.
The oven should be plugged in at least
5 minutes before sensor cooking. Room temperature should not exceed
95°F. Be sure the exterior of the cooking con-
tainer and the interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off each with a paper towel.
The oven will not generate microwave
energy for approximately 28 seconds at the beginning of the sensor cooking cycle.

Cooking Guide

Microwave cooking tips
Amount of food
If you increase or decrease the amount of food you prepare, the time it takes to cook that food will also change. For example, if you double a recipe, add a little more than half the original cooking time. Check for doneness and, if neces­sary, add more time in small increments.
Starting temperature of food
The lower the temperature of the food being put into the microwave oven, the longer it takes to cook. Food at room tem­perature will be reheated more quickly than food at refrigerator temperature.
Composition of food
Food with a lot of fat and sugar will be heated faster than food containing a lot of water. Fat and sugar will also reach a higher temperature than water in the cooking process.
The more dense the food, the longer it takes to heat. “Very dense” food like meat takes longer to reheat than lighter, more porous food like sponge cakes.
Size and shape
Smaller pieces of food will cook faster than larger pieces and same-shaped pieces of food cook more evenly than irreg­ularly shaped foods.
With unevenly shaped foods, the thinner parts will cook faster than the thicker areas. Place the thinner parts of chicken wings and legs in the center of the dish.
Stirring, turning foods
Stirring and turning foods distributes heat quickly to the center of the dish and avoids overcooking at the outer edges of the food.
Covering food
Cover food to:
Reduce splattering
Shorten cooking times
COOKING GUIDE
Retain food moisture All coverings that allow microwaves to
pass through are suitable.
Releasing pressure in foods
Several foods (for example: baked pota- toes, sausages, egg yolks, and some fruits) are tightly covered by a skin or membrane. This can cause the food to burst from steam building up in them dur­ing cooking. To relieve the pressure and to prevent bursting, pierce these foods before cooking with a fork, cocktail pick, or toothpick.
Using standing time
Always allow food to stand for a while after cooking. Standing time after defrost­ing, cooking, or reheating always improves the results since the temperature will then be evenly distributed throughout the food.
The length of the standing time depends on the volume and density of the food. Sometimes it can be as short as the time it takes you to remove the food from the oven and take it to the serving table. However, with larger, denser food, the standing time may be as long as 10 minutes.
Arranging food
For best results, distribute food evenly on the plate. You can do this in several ways:
If you are cooking several items of the same food, such as baked potatoes, place them in a ring pattern for uniform
cooking.
When cooking foods of uneven shapes or thickness, such as chicken breasts, place the smaller or thinner area of the
food towards the center of the dish where it will be heated last.
Layer thin slices of meat on top of each other.
When you cook or reheat whole fish, score the skin – this prevents cracking.
Shield the tail and head of whole fish with small pieces of foil to prevent overcooking but ensure the foil does not touch the sides of the oven.
Do not let food or a container touch the top or sides of the oven. This will prevent possible arcing.
27

CARING FOR YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN

Using aluminum foil
Metal containers should not be used in a microwave oven. There are, however, some exceptions. If you have purchased food which is prepackaged in an aluminum foil container, then refer to the instructions on the package. When using aluminum foil containers, cooking times may be longer because microwaves will only penetrate the top of the food.
If you use aluminum containers without package instructions, follow these guidelines:
Place container in a glass bowl and add some water so that it covers the bottom of the container, not more than 1⁄4 inch (6 mm) high. This ensures even heating of the container bottom.
Always remove the lid to avoid damage to the oven.
Use only undamaged containers.
Do not use containers taller than 3⁄4 inch
(19 mm).
Container must be half filled.
To avoid arcing, there must be a minimum
1
4 inch (6 mm) between the aluminum container and the walls of the oven and also between two aluminum containers.
Always place container on turntable.
Reheating food in aluminum foil
containers usually takes up to double the time compared to reheating in plastic, glass, china, or paper containers. The time when food is ready will vary depending upon the type of container you use.
Let food stand for 2 to 3 minutes after heating so that heat is spread evenly throughout container.
Cooking you should not do in your microwave oven
Do not do canning of foods in the oven. Closed glass jars may explode, resulting in damage to the oven.
Do not use the microwave oven to sterilize objects (baby bottles, etc.). It is difficult to maintain the high temperature required for safe sterilization.
Caring for Your Microwave Oven
To make sure your microwave oven looks good and works well for a long time, you should maintain it properly. For proper care, please follow these instructions carefully.
For interior surfaces: Wash often with warm, sudsy water and a sponge or soft cloth. Use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or a mild detergent. Be sure to keep the areas
clean where the door and oven frame touch when closed. Wipe well with clean
water. Over time, stains can occur on the surfaces as the result of food particles spattering during cooking. This is normal.
For stubborn soil, boil a cup (250 ml) of water in the oven for 2 or 3 minutes. Steam will soften the soil. To get rid of odors inside the oven, boil a cup of water with lemon juice or vinegar.
For exterior surfaces and control panel:
Use a soft cloth with spray glass cleaner. Apply the spray glass cleaner to the soft cloth; do not spray directly on the oven.
NOTE: Abrasive cleansers, steel-wool pads, gritty wash cloths, some paper tow­els, etc., can damage the control panel and
the interior and exterior oven surfaces.
To clean turntable and turntable support, wash in mild, sudsy water; for heavily soiled
areas use a mild cleanser and scouring sponge. The turntable and turntable support are dishwasher-safe.

Questions and Answers

QUESTIONS
Can I operate my microwave oven without the turntable or turn the turntable over to accommodate a large dish?
Can I use a rack in my microwave oven so that I may reheat or cook on two levels at a time?
Can I use either metal or aluminum pans in my microwave oven?
Is it normal for the turntable to turn in either direction?
Sometimes the door of my microwave oven appears wavy. Is this normal?
What are the humming noises that I hear when my microwave oven is operating?
ANSWERS
No. If you remove or turn over the turntable, you will get poor cooking results. Dishes used in your oven must fit on the turntable.
You can use a rack only if rack is supplied with your microwave oven. Use of any rack not supplied with the microwave oven can result in poor cooking performance and/or arcing.
Usable metal includes aluminum foil for shielding (use small, flat pieces), small skewers, and shallow foil trays (if tray is
3
4 inch [19 mm] deep and half filled with food to absorb microwave energy). Never allow metal to touch walls or door. (For more information, see “Using aluminum foil” in the “Cooking Guide” section.)
Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, depending on the rotation of the motor when the cooking cycle begins.
This appearance is normal and does not affect the operation of your oven.
You hear the sound of the transformer when the magnetron tube cycles on.
Why does the dish become hot when I microwave food in it? I thought that this should not happen.
What does “standing time” mean?
Can I pop popcorn in my microwave oven? How do I get the best results?
Why does steam come out of the air exhaust vent?
As the food becomes hot it will conduct the heat to the dish. Be prepared to use hot pads to remove food after cooking.
“Standing time” means that food should be removed from the oven and covered for additional time to allow it to finish cooking. This frees the oven for other cooking.
Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn following manufacturer’s guidelines or use the preprogrammed Popcorn pad. Do not use regular paper bags. Use the “listening test” by stopping the oven as soon as the popping slows to a “pop” every one or two seconds. Do not repop unpopped kernels. Do not pop popcorn in glass utensils.
Steam is normally produced during cooking. The microwave oven has been designed to vent this steam out the top vents.
