Federal Communications Commission Radio Frequency interference Statement

(U.S.A. Only)

This equipment generates and uses ISM frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type tested and found to comply with limits for ISM Equipment pursuant to part 18 of FCC Rules which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined byturning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following:

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

different branch circuits.

The manufacturer is not responsiblefor any radio or television interference caused byunauthorized

modification to this microwave oven. It is the responsibility of the user to correct such interference.

GROUNDING iN ;TRUCTI

This appliance must be grounded. This oven isequipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a ground- ing plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance

with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

Electrical Requirements

The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE

THE GROUNDING PIN FROM THE PLUG. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.

If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electri- cian or serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.

The Power Supply Cord and plug must be connected to a separate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15 Amp, or more branch circuit, single grounded receptacle. The receptacle should be located inside the cabinet directly above the Microwave Oven mounting location as shown in Figure 1.

NOTES:

1. If you have any questions about the grounding or electri- cal instructions, consult a qualified electrician or service person.

INFORMATI N YOU NEED TO KNOW

About Your Oven

This Use and Care Guide is valuable: read it carefully and always save it for reference.

NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support nor turn the turntable over so that a large

dish could be placed in the oven. The turntable will turn both clockwise and counterclockwise.

ALWAYS have food in the Microwave Oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy.

When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It

is normal for the exterior of the oven to be warm to the touch when cooking or reheating.

About Microwave Cooking

Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.

• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as

needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

• Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Cov- ers prevent spattering and help foods to cook even ly.

Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent over- cooking before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.

Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if possible.

Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be

turned over at least once.

Condensation is a normal part of microwave cook- ing. Room humidity and the moisture in food will

influence the amount of moisture that condenses in the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as

much condensation as uncovered ones. Ventilation openings must not be blocked.

The Microwave Oven is for food preparation only. It should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.

Your Microwave Oven is rated 1050 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before the minimum time and add time accordingly.

Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway

through cooking both from top to bottom and from the center of the dish to the outside.

Add standing time. Remove food from oven and stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which allows the food to finish cooking without overcooking.

Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking temperatures have been reached.

Doneness signs include:

Food steams throughout, not just at edge.

Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.

Poultry thigh joints move easily. Meat and poultry show no pinkness.

Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

_iiiii@

To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a thick or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER leave the thermometer in the food during cooking, unless it is approved for microwave use.

ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when

handling utensils that are incontact with hot food. Enough heat from the food can transfer through

utensils to cause skin burns.

Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge

of a dish's covering and carefully open popcorn and oven cooking bags away from the face.

Stay near the oven while it's in use and check cooking progress frequently so that there is no chance of overcooking food.

NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or other items.

Select, store and handle food carefully to pre- serve its high quality and minimize the spread of

foodborne bacteria.

• Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can cause arcing and/or fires.

• Use care when removing items from the oven so

that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do

not touch the safety door latches. Keep aluminum foil used for shielding at least

1 inch away from walls, ceiling and door.

About Children and the Microwave

Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave oven with a supervising person very near to them. Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person should be in the same room.

The child must be able to reach the oven comfort- ably; if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.

At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the oven door.

Children should be taught all safety precautions: use potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special attention to packages that crisp food because they may be extra hot.

Don't assume that because achild has mastered one cooking skill he/she can cook everything.

Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not a toy. See page 21 for Child Lock feature.
