Microwaving Tips
o Make sure all cookware used in
your microwave oven is suitable for microwaving_ Most glass casseroles, cooking dishes, measuring cups, custard cups, pottery or china dinnerware which does not have
metallic trim or glaze with a metallic sheen can be used_ Some cookware
is labeled "suitable for microwavingY If you are unsure, use this dish test:
Measure 1 cup water in a glass cup. Place in oven on or beside dish°
Microwave 1 minute at High. If water becomes hot, dish is microwave safe° If dish heats, it should not be used for microwaving
o Paper' towels, wax paper' and
plastic wrap can be used to cover dishes in order to retain moisture
and prevent spattering.
Some rnicrowaved foods require stirring, rotating or reazranging Check your cookbook
o Steam builds up pressure in foods
which are tightly covered by a skin or membrane. Pierce potatoes, egg yolks and chicken livers to prevent bursting.

Sometimes, the oven floor and
walls can become too hot to touch. Be careful touching the
floor and walls during and after cooking.
Foods cooked in liquids (such aspasta) may tend to boil over
more rapidly than foodscontaining
less moisture. Should this occur, refer topage 36 for instructionson
how to clean the inside of the oven.
o Do not use regular cooking
or oven thermometers when cooking by microwave or
combination. The metal and
mercury in these thermometers could cause "arcing" and possible damage to oven.
o Remove the temperature probe from the oven when not using it to cook with. If you leave the probe inside the oven without inserting it in food or liquid, and
turn on microwave energy, it can create electrical arcing in the oven, damage oven walls and damage the temperature probe.
o Plastic utensils--Plastic utensils
designedfor microwave cooking are very useful, but should be used carefully. Even microwave- safe plastic may not be as tolerant ofovercooking conditions as are glassor ceramic materials and may soften or char if subjected to short periods of overcookingoIn longer
exposures to overcooking, the food
and utensils could ignite° For
these reasons: 1)Use microwave-
safe plastics only and use them in
strict compliance with the utensil manufacturer's recommendations,
2) Do not subject empty utensils to microwaving. 3) Do not permit children to use plastic utensils without complete supervision,
oWhen cooking pork, follow
the directions exactly andalways cook the meat to an internal
temperature of at least 170°E This assures that, in the remote possibility that trichina may be present in the meat, it will be killed and meat wilt be safe to eat_
o Boiling eggs is not recommended in a microwave
oven. Pressurecan build up inside eggyolk and may cause it to burst, resulting in injury,
Foods with unbroken outer "skin" such as potatoes, sausages, tomatoes, apples,
chicken livers and other giblets,
andegg yolks (see previous caution) should be pierced to allow steam to escape during
cooking_
"Boilable" cooking pouches
and tightly closed plastic bags
should be slit, pierced or vented as directed in cookbook° If they are not, plastic could burst during or immediately after cooking, possibly resulting in injury. Also, plasticstorage containers should be at least partially uncoveredbecause they form a tight seal. When cooking with containers tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove coveringcarefully and direct steam awayfrom hands and face.
o Spontaneous boiling--Under certain special circumstances, liquids may start to boil during or
shortly after removal from the microwave oven, To prevent burns
from splashing liquid, stir the liquid briefly before removing the
container from the microwaveoven.

oUse of the oven metal
accessory rack. (See your cookbook for proper use.)
--Remove the rack from oven when not in use.
Use pot holders when handling
the rack and utensils. They may
be hot.
--Do not use microwavebrowning dish on rack. The rack could
overheat. Use of rack with
Automatic Cooking feature is not recommended.
Do not use the drip pan or spatter shield while microwaving.
THE EXHAUST HOOD
o Have it installed and properly
grounded by a qualified installer.
See the special installationbooklet
packed with the microwave oven_
o The exhaust fan in your oven will operate automatically under
certainconditions (see Automatic Fan Feature, page 6). While the
fan is operating, caution is required to prevent the starting
and spreading of accidental cooking fires while the exhaust fan is in use. For this reason:
--Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings.
Boilovercauses smokingand greasy spilloversthatmay igniteandspread if exhaust fan is operating. To mi_mize automatic fan operation, use adequate sized utensils and use high heat only when necess_wy.
--In the event of a grease fire,
smother flaming pan on surface
unit bycovering pan completely
with well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray,
--Never flame foods under the oven with the exhaust fan
operating because it may svead the flames.
--Keep hood and grease filters clean, according to instructions on pages 35 and37,tomaintain good venting and avoid grease fires.

What YourOven Can Do
Cooking with your new oven offers a wide variety of food preparation options. Microwave cooking uses very short, high frequency radio waves. The
movement of the microwaves through the food generates heat
and cooks most foods faster than conventional methods, while
retaining their natural texture and moisture. Microwave
cooking heats food directly, not
the cooking utensil or the interior of the oven. Reheating is easy and defrosting is particularly
convenient because less time is spent in food preparation.
Convection cooking constantly circulates heated air around the food,
creating even browning and sealed- in flavor by the constant motion of hot air over the food surfaces,
Your new oven also offers the option of combination cooking,
using microwave energy along with convection cooking.. You cook with

speed and accuracy, while browning and crisping to perfection
You can use microwave cooking, convection cooking or combination cooking to cook by time. Simply preset the length of cooking time desired and your oven turns off automatically. Or you can cook by temperature, by these methods, using the temperature probe to determine the doneness by the internal temperature of the food. This method takes the guesswork out of cooking, shutting the oven off automatically when the food
reaches the desired temperaturer
The Automatic Cooking Control
(AUTO COOK) feature does your microwave cooking for you,. It's easy and convenient--just follow the step-by-step instructions in this
manual.. A sensor detects steam from the food and automatically adjusts cooking time and power
level for best results.
Combination Auto Roast is a cooking function that uses the temperature probe. You simply
select from 4 Combination Auto Roast codes, and the oven automatically adjusts power level, oven temperature and internal food temperature to cook the food the
way you want it, Auto Defrost automatically sets the
defrosting time and power levels for your You choose the appropriate
code number from I to 6 from the food you are defrosting, then enter
the food weight in pounds and tenths of a pound and touch Start_ The oven calculates the defrosting time and changes power levels during defrosting to give even defrosting results,.
The Auto Start Timer lets you program the oven to start cooking
at a desired time, even if you're not at home.
The following guide shows at a glance the difference between
microwave, convection and combination cooking.

Cookware Tips
Convection Cooking
METAL PANS are recommended for'all types of baked products, but especially where browning or
crusting is important. Dark or dull finish metal pans are
best for breads and pies because they absorb heat and produce crisper crust_
Shiny aluminum pans are better for' cakes, cookies or muffins because
these pans reflect heat and help produce a light tender crust.
GLASS OR GLASS-CER_AMIC
casserole or baking dishes are best
suited for egg and cheese iecipes
due to the cleanability of glass.
Combination Cooking
GLASS OR GLASS-CERAMIC
baking containers are recommended Be sure not to use items with metal
trim as it may cause arcing (sparking) with oven wall or metal accessory
rack, damaging the cookware, the
rack or the oven_
HEAT-RESISTANT PLASTIC microwave cookware (safe to
400°F,) may be used, but it is not
recommended for foods requiring crusting or all-around browning, because the plastic is a poor
conductor of heat_

Questions and Answers
Q. What will happen if I accidentally reverse my defrost,
hold and cook instructions? A. The oven will automatically
rearrange your' program. Defrosting will always come first, then hold, and then the cooking function.
Q. Can I defrost and hold only? A. Yes Sometimes you may only
want to defrost a food, hold it, and cook it later, All you need to do is
program in Defrost and amount of time_ Then program Hold and the
amount of time Be sure to put the thawed dish in the refrigerator
promptly,
NOTE: Let foods remain at room temperature only as long as safe_ Times wit1 vary,
Q. I programmed my oven for a specific defrosting time but it defrosted longer than necessary. What happened?
A. When instructions conflict,
the oven carries out the last
insWaction. You may have set the oven to Defrost for 4 minutes, Hold/Time for 2 minutes, and then Defrost for 6 minutes° In this case, the oven would Defrost for 6 minutes and Hold/Time for 2 minutes.
Page 12
Automatic Cooking
The Auto Cook feature may be used to eliminate your need to look up cooking time in the cookbook or guess how long to set cooking time By actually sensing the steam that escapes as food microwaves, this feature automatically adjusts the oven's cooking time to various types and amounts of food.
Because most cooking containers must be covered during automatic
cooking, this feature is best with
foods that you want to steam or
retain moisture
Note: [ Use of the metal accessory rack ]
with Automatic Cooking is I NOT recommended. 1
Foods Recommended
A wide variety of foods including meats, fish casseroles, vegetables, leftovers and convenience foods can be Auto Cooked.
Foods Not Recommended
Foods that must be cooked uncovered, foods that require constant attention, foods that require addition of ingredients during cooking, and
foods calling for a dry look or crisp
surface after cooking should not be Auto Cooked It is best to Time Cook them
Foods that microwave best using the temperatule probe should be Temp Cooked or Auto Roasted.
Easy to Use
Simply touch three control pads-- AUTO COOK, desired CODE, and START The word "AUTO" appears on the display and the sensor is activated to sense steam from food
Keep Door Closed
Do not open the oven door while the word '_UTO" is displayed-- steam escaping from the oven can affect cooking perfoimance_ if the door is opened, close the door and touch START immediately.
Automatic Cooking Codes
Automatic cooking codes 1through
8 are designed to give you easy
automatic results with a number of foods.
Code i, designed for reheating foods quickly, turns the oven off automatically as soon as the sensor detects steam from the foods_
When codes 2 through 7 are selected, the oven automatically determines how much more cooking time is needed after steam is sensed_ Oven signals and switches to TIME COOK. The word "AUTO" on the
display is replaced by the remaining cooking time.
Auto Cook recipes and a cooking control guide can be found on pages !4 through 21.
Example:
Place covered food in oven_ Touch AUTO COOK pad. "ENTER CODE" flashes on display°
Touch number pad for desired coder
"CODE 2" shows. Touch START,
Word '_,UTO" shows on display, indicating steam sensor is activated DO NOT OPEN DOOR. OPENING DOOR WILL AFFECT COOFJNG PERFORMANCE°
Oven signals when steam is sensed and '_UTO" is replaced by cook time. If necessary, rotate or stir
food. When cooking is complete, oven signals and will beep every minute until door is opened or CLEAR/OFF is touched

How toAdjust AUTO COOK Codes ToSuit YourTaste
By simply adding a t after' any AUTO COOK code number, you can
set the oven to cook for approximately
20 % less time than the code would
regularly provide. For example, if CODE 4 cooks your
chicken more done than you like it, set CODE 41 next time and you'll
get 20 % shorter cooking time, If you want a longer cooking time
than a code provides, add a 9 after the code,
For the chicken in the example above, CODE 49 would provide approximately 20% longer cooking time than the regular CODE 4 would provide.
Example:
Touch AUTO COOK pad, "ENTER CODE" flashes on display,
Touch number pads 4 and i in that order. "CODE 4" shows on
disptay_
Containers and covers
Appropriate containers and coverings help assure good cooking results.
* Always use microwave-safe
containers and cover them with lids, wax paper or plastic wrap.
Wonder if it's microwave-safe? Put it to the test described on page 3.
* Never use tight-sealing plastic covers--they can prevent steam from escaping and cause food to overcook.
Match the amount of food to the size of the container. Fill containers at least half ful! for best
results,
o Be sure the outside of the
cooking container and the inside of the microwave oven are dry
before placing food in the oven° Beads of moisture turning into steam can mislead the sensor.

Automatic Cookhng (continued)
Questions & Answers
Q. Why does my oven automatically cut off after the Auto cycle when using Auto Cook Control Code 1 when it does not for other settings?
A. When using Code 1, there is no
second phase of minutes counting down. All the cooking is completed in the first phase during which
'%_U'ID" is displayed°
Q. If my food is not completely
cooked after using the suggested
Code, what should I do?
A. Use Time Cook I and Power
Level 10for a few minutes until
completion,
Q. Do all fresh or frozen vegetables require a standing period after
cooking with Auto Cook? A, Most vegetables are cooked to
a crisp state during Auto Cook,
just as in regular microwaving.
Therefore, it is recommended that you let the vegetables stand for up
to 5 minutes depending on size and density of pieces,, This standing
time also enhances the overall
flavor and appearance of most
vegetables°
Q. What if I don't fully cover the dish in Auto Cook?
A. Oven senses steam too quickly
which shortens the cooking time thus leaving undercooked food, Cover tightly and reset Auto Cook,
Q. Do the shapes and sizes of food make a difference when
using Auto Cook? A. Yes, in some cases, larger
pieces will require additional Time Cooking, Be sure to check
suggested arrangement of pieces in
the dish, since proper' arrangement
is often a successful tip in regular microwaving.
Q. Do fresh or frozen vegetables require water when using Auto
Cook? A. Yes° Add water as recommended
on guide to the vegetables and cover
well for even, complete cooking_ Q. Should I use Auto Cook to
cook pudding or sauces? A. Most pudding and sauce recipes
require stirring many times during cooking; therefore, Time Cook is
recommended,
Q. My scalloped potatoes were not completely cooked when I removed the dish after Auto
Cook. What is wrong? A. If you prepared the sauce in the
oven prior to combining the sauce with potatoes, there may have been too much remaining moisture in the oven, Make sure you dry the oven completely before using Auto Cook since this function operates properly by sensing steam in the oven. Also, starting Auto Cook with hot foods creates steam in the
oven too soon, and decreases the first sensing cycle,
Q. Are there any other foods which are best Time Cooked, rather than Auto Cooked?
A. Bakery foods, candies, melted
chocolate or foods when a dry or crisp surface is desirable, are cooked best by Time Cook°
Q. Would my plastic containers with very tight fitting lids be appropriate for Automatic Cooking?
A. No, most types of plastic
storage dishes, butter' tubs, etc with tight fitting lids are not recommended for microwaving_ Also tight fitting plastic lids may prevent adequate steam from escaping and food may not cook properly during Automatic Cooking.
Q. I tried to warm some chow mein noodles using Auto Cook.
Why didn't this work? A. Food must have some moisture
in order to create steam which helps the auto sensor function. Extremely dry foods such as chow
mein noodles, potato chips and other such foods do not have
enough moisture.

Questions and Answers
Q. When I cook poultry, the thin, small areas like legs and wings
often overcook before the rest of the bird is thoroughly cooked.
How can I prevent this? A. Thin, uneven portions of poultry
may be shielded with aluminum foil during cooking+ Do not allow foil to touch metal accessory rack or oven sides, arcing may occur.
Q. Usually my temperature probe gives very accurate results, but this time it didn't. What happened?
A, If the temperature probe is
positioned touching fat or bone, an inaccurate reading may result. Be sure to place the probe in solid muscle, usually the thickest, meatiest part of the roast or
poultry, or in the center of a
meatloaf or casserole,.
Q. Meats often take longer than indicated in the guides to reach the desired internal temperature.
Why?
A. If the meat is recently defrosted and still very cold or icy inside, it
will require a longer cooking time than meat which has been merely refrigerated. Times shown in the guides are usually for meats that are refrigerator temperature,.
Q. When I tried to program nay oven for Combination Auto
Roast, it beeped and flashed
"PROBE" What did I do wrong?
A. Combination Auto Roast
cannot be programmed without the temperature probe connected to fine oven wall receptacle. To eliminate the "PROBE" display and continue programming the oven, just securely insert the probe into the receptacle..
Q. Do most meats require standing time after Combination Auto
Roasting? A. You may want to let meats stand
briefly, to allow easier carving and serving. Most meat roasts continue
to cook for a few minutes after removing fiom the oven Check the
cookbook for specific instructions,

Convection Bro ag
Broiling is cooking food by intense heat from the upper unit in the oven. Most fish and tender cuts of meat can be broiled.
Follow these steps to keep spattering and smoking to a
minimum.
Step 1: If meat has fat or gristle near edge, cut vertical slashes through both about 2" apart. If desired, fat may be trimmed, leaving layer about 1/8" thick.
Step 2: Insert spatter shield onto drip pan° Always use spatter shield so fat drips into drip pan; otherwise
juices may become hot enough to
catch fire Aluminum foil may be used to line drip pan and spatter shield_ But, be CERTAIN to cut openings in foil, to correspond with slots in the spatter shield so fat drips into pan below.
Step 3: Touch Convection BROIL pad° "ENTER BROIL CODE"
flashes.
Step 4: Touch number pad 1 or 2
for desired Broil Code. Code 1 broils at 450°E Code 2 broils at 425°E Use Code I for thinner cuts
of meat. "ENTER BROIL TIME"
flashes on display but usually it is
recommended that you preheat to pmpmgrammed broiling tempemtumo
(See Step 50
Step 5: Touch START pad, "PRE"
appears on the display in large

Questions and Answers
Q. May I use aluminum foil to line the drip pan and spatter
shield? A. Yes, if you mold the foil
thorougl-dy to the spatter shield and slit it to conform to the slots
in the shield. Slots permit proper drainage of meat juices into drip
pan, minimizing smoking and
spattering and preventing possibility of fire from overheated drippings.
Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use the spatter shield in the pan?
A. Yes. Using the spatter shield
suspends the meat over the pan. As the meat cooks, the ,juices fall into the pan, thus keeping meat drier, Juices are protected Toythe shield and s_y cooler, thus preventing excessive spatter and smoking,
Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling? A. No. Salt draws out the juices
and allows them to evaporam Always salt after cooking. Turn meat with tongs; piercing meat with a fork also allows juices to escape. When broiling poultty or fish, brush each side often with butter°
Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown as they
should? A. In some areas, the power
(voltage) to the oven may be low. In these cases, preheat the broil unit for 10 minutes before placing broiler pan assembly with food in oven. Turn food only once during broiling.
Q. Do I need to grease my broiler
spatter shield to prevent meat from sticking?
A. The spatter shield is designed to reflect broiler heat, thus keeping the surface cool enough to prevent
meat sticking to the surface° However, spraying the shield
lightly before cooking with a
vegetable cooking spray will make
cleanup easier_

METAL METAL
FILTER FILTER
COOKTOP/NtGHT LIGHT
The exhaust hood feature on your' microwave oven is equipped with
two meta! filters which collect glease. When the fan is opetated,
air is drawn up through the filters and is then discharged through the provided venting to the outside. The hood also has a light for illuminating the counter space°
When NIGHT LIGHT pad is touched, the hood light operates at a lower intensity for use as a night light_
To remove grease filter, grasp the
"finger hold" on the filter and slide
to the rear.
Then pull filter downward and to the front. The filter will drop out.
To replace grease filter, slide the
filter in the frame slot on the back
of the opening.
Pull filter upward and to the front to lock into place.
To clean grease filter, soak, then agitate filter in hot detergent solution° Don't use ammonia or other alkali because it will darken
metal. Light brushing can be used to remove embedded dirt. Rinse, shake and remove moisture befoie
replacing Filters should be
cleaned at least once a month. Never operate your hood without
the filter in place. In situations
where flaming might occur on surfaces below hood, filter will retard entry of flames into the unit°
