Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces
can burn off the pad and touch electrical parts involving risk of electric shock.
Do not use paper products when the
microwave/convection oven is operated
in
the convection or combination mode.
Do not store any materials, other than our
recommended accessories, in this oven when
not in use.
Don’t defrost frozen beverages in narrow
necked bottles (especially carbonated beverages). Even if the container is opened, pressure can build up. This can cause the container to burst, possibly resulting in injury.
Use metal only as directed in this book. TV
dinners may be microwaved in foil trays less than 3/4” high; remove top foil cover and return tray to box. When using metal in the microwave/ convection oven, keep metal (other than metal

Cme
and Cleaning section(s) for instructions on how to clean the inside of the oven.
Thermometer—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 the oven. Do not use a thermometer in food you are
microwaving unless the thermometer is designed or recommended for use in the microwave oven.
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.
Plastic
cookwar+Plastic
cookware designed for microwave cooking is very useful, but should be used carefully. Even microwave-safe plastic may not be as tolerant of overcooking conditions as are glass or ceramic materials, and may soften or char if subjected to short periods of overcooking. In longer exposures to overcooking, the food and cookware could ignite. For these reasons: 1) Use microwave-safe plastics only and use them in strict compliance with the cookware manufacturer’s recommendations. 2) Do not subject empty cookware to microwaving. 3) Do not permit children to use plastic cookware without complete supervision.
When cooking pork, follow the directions
exactly and always cook the meat to an internal temperature of at least
170°F.
This assures that, in the remote possibility that trichina may be present in the meat, it will be killed and meat will be safe to eat.
Do not boil eggs in a microwave/convection
oven. Pressure will build up inside egg yolk and will cause it to burst, possibly resulting in injury.

giblets, and egg yolks (see previous caution) should be pierced to allow steam to escape during cooking.
Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use in
microwave/convection ovens. Check the package for proper use.
. Spontaneous boiling—Under
certain special circumstances, liquids may start to boil during or shortly after removal from the microwave/convection oven. To prevent burns from splashing liquid, stir the liquid briefly before removing the container from the microwave/convection oven.
Some products such as whole eggs and
sealed containers—for example, closed glass
jars—will explode and should not be heated in
this microwave/convection oven. Such use of the microwave/convection oven could result in injury.
Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even
without their lids; especially meat and egg mixtures.

Cooting
pouches and
tightly
closed plastic bags should be slit, pierced or vented as directed by package. If they are not,
plastic could burst during or immediately after
cooking, possibly resulting in injury. Also, plastic storage containers should be at least partially
uncovered because they form a tight
seal.
When cooking with containers tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove covering carefully and direct steam away from hands and face.
Hot foods and steam can cause
burns. Be careful when opening
any
containers of hot food,
popcorn bags, cooking pouches

MICROWAV~G TWS
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 microwaving.”
If you are not
sure if a dish is microwave-safe, use this test:
Place in the oven
both the dish you
are testing and a glass measuring
CUP filled with
1
~up
of water—set the measuring cup either in or next to the dish. Microwave 1 minute at high. If the dish heats, it should not be used for microwaving. If the dish remains cool and only the water in the cup heats, then the dish is microwave-safe.
IF YOU NEED SERVICE...
Paper towels, waxed paper and plastic wrap
can be used to cover dishes in order to retain moisture and prevent spattering. Be sure to vent plastic wrap so steam can escape.
Some microwaved foods require stirring, rotating
or rearranging.
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.
If you use a meat thermometer while cooking, make sure it is safe for use in microwave ovens.

W~T
YOUR
OWN
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 regular methods, while retaining their natural texture and moisture. Microwave cooking heats food directly, not the cookware 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 temperature.
The Microwave Sensor Cooking Features (Auto Cook, Auto Reheat and Popcorn) do your microwave cooking for you. They are 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 3 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 you. Enter the food weight in pounds and tenths of a pound and touch the START pad. The oven calculates the defrosting time and changes power levels during defrosting to give even
defrosting results. The Auto
