INSTALLATION

A. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

In the event of an electrical short circuit,grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape route for the electric current. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug (Fig. 1) to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING-

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Do not,

under any circumstances, cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord plug.

PROPERLY POLARIZED

AND GROUNDED OUTLET

Three-Pronged (Grounding) plug

Fig.

The consumer should have it checked by a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding

instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the responsibility and

obligation of the consumer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three- prong wall receptacle. a) If customer has two-prong wall receptacle, he should replace it with a three-prong (grounding)

receptacle by a qualified electrician before using the appliance.

b) Use of extension cords: 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 should be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.

INSTALLATION (Cont’d)

B. CIRCUITS

For safety purposes this oven must be plugged into a 20 Amp circuit. No other electrical appliances

or lighting circuits should be on this line. If in doubt, consult a licensed electrician.

C. VOLTAGE WARNING

The voltage used at the wall receptacle must be the same as specificed on the oven serial plate located on the back or on the side of the control panel of the oven. Use of a higher voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of accident causing oven damage. Low voltage will cause slow cooking. In case your microwave oven does not perform normal operation in accordance with AC power source and voltage, remove the power cord and then insert it again.

D. DO NOT BLOCK AIR VENTS

All air vents should be kept clear during cooking. If air vents are covered during oven operation the oven may overheat. In this case a sensitive thermal safety device automatically turns the oven off. The oven will be inoperable until it has cooled sufficiently.

E. RADIO INTERFERENCE

1. Operation of the microwave oven may cause interference to your radio. TV or similar equipment.

2. When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the following measures: a. Clean door and sealing surfaces of the oven.

b. Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television. c. Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the receiver. d. Move the microwave oven away from the receiver. e. Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that microwave oven and receiver are on

different branch circuits.

NOTE:

1. Short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

3. If long cord or extension cord is used. (1) the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, (2) the extension cord miust be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and (3) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

BAKED GOODS AND DESSERTS

CONVERTING RECIPES

When adapting “quick bread” recipes, you will find

it necessary to reduce the amount of leavening (baking powder or soda) by’about one-quarter the normal amount. A bitter aftertaste is apparent if

too much leavening is used in biscuits or muffins.

Since food rises higher in the microwave oven,

you will not see a loss in volume from the

reduction of soda or baking powder. If a recipe contains buttermilk or sour cream, do

not change the amount of soda, since it serves to

counteract the sour taste as well as leavening

When using a mix where leavening cannot be

reduced, allow the dough to stand about 10 minutes before cooking in order for some of the gas to be lost. Otherwise observe the following guidelines.

Breads and rolls should be reheated only until they are warm to the touch. Overheating or overcooking makes bread tough and rubbery.

PRECAUTIONS

1. Do not attempt to tamper with, or make any adjustments or repairs to door, control panel, safety interlock switches or any other part of the oven. Repairs should be done by qualified service personnel only.

2. Be certain to place the front surface of the door three inches or more away from the countertop edge to aviod accidental tipping of the appliance in normal usage.

3. For the most accurate programming of the electronic units, touch the center of each pad securely. Do not touch several pads at one time or touch in between pads. A beep sound should be heard with each touch when pad is touched correctly.

4. Do not hit or strike the control with objects such as silverware, utensils, etc. Breakage may occur.

5. Be careful when taking the cooking utensils out of the oven. Some dishes absorb heat from the cooked food and may be hot.

6. Do not rinse cooking utensils by immediately placing them into water just after cooking. This may cause breakage. Allow the turntable to cool down.

7. Do not operate the oven empty. Either food or water should always be in the oven during operation to absorb microwave energy.

8. Do not heat unopened food containers in the oven. Pressure build-up can cause the container to burst,

resulting in injury.

9. Do not use your microwave oven to dry newspapers or clothes. They can catch fire.

10. Only use thermometers approved for microwave oven cooking.

11. Be certain the turntable is in place when you operate the oven.

12. Pierce the skin of potatoes, whole squash, apples or any fruit or vegetable which has a skin covering, before cooking.

13. Never use your microwave oven to cook eggs in the shell. Pressure can build up inside the shell causing it to burst.

14.

Do not

pop popcorn, except in a microwave-approved popcorn popper or commercial package designed

especially for microwave ovens.

Never

try to pop popcorn in a paper bag not designed for microwave oven use. Overcooking may results in

smoke and fire. Do

not

repop unpopped kernels.

Do not

reuse popcorn bags.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q. What’s wrong when the oven light will not glow? A. There may be several reasons why the oven light will not glow.

Door is not closed.

Light bulb is burned out

START has not been touched

Q. Does microwave energy pass through the viewing screen in the door?

A. No. The holes, or ports, are made to allow light to pass; they do not let microwave energy through.

Q. Why does the beep tone sound when a pad on the Control Panel is touched?

A. The beep tone sounds to assure that the setting is being properly entered. Q. Will the microwave oven be damaged if it operates empty?

A. Yes. Never run it empty or without the glass tray.

Q. Why do eggs sometimes pop?

When baking, frying, or poaching eggs, the yolk may pop due to steam build up inside the yolk membrane.

To prevent this, simply pierce the yolk before cooking. Never microwave eggs in the shell.

Q. Why is standing time recommeded after microwave cooking is over?

After microwave cooking is finished, food keep on cooking during standing time. This standing time finishes

cooking evenly throughout the food. The amount of standing time depends on the density of the food.

Q. Is it possible to pop pocorn in a microwave oven?

A. Yes,

if using one of the two methods describled below: (1) Popcorn-popping devices desiged specifically for microwave cooking. (2) Prepackaged commercial microwave popcorn that contains specific times and power outputs needed for

an acceptable final product.

FOLLOW EXACT DIRECTIONS GIVEN BY EACH MANUFACTUER FOR THEIR

POPCORN PRODUCT. DO NOT LEAVE THE OVEN UNATTENDED WHILE THE CORN IS BEING POPPED. IF CORN FAILS TO POP AFTER THE SUGGESTED TIMES, DISCONTINUE COOKING. OVERCOOKING COULD RESULT IN AN OVEN FIRE.

CAUTION: NEVER USE A BROWN PAPER BAG FOR POPPING CORN OR ATTEMPT TO POP LEFTOVER KERNELS.

Q. Why doesn’t my oven always cook as fast as the cooking guide says it should? A. Check your cooking guide again to make sure you’ve followed the directions correctly, and to see what might cause

variations in cooking time. Cooking guide times and heat settings are suggestions chosen to help prevent overcooking, the most common problem in getting used to a microwave oven. Variations in the size, shape, weight and dimensions of the food could require longer cooking time. Use your own judgement along with the cooking guide suggestions to test for doneness, just as yor would do with conventional cooking.
