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.

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.

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.

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

DEFROSTING BY TIME
Time Defrost (Power Level 3)
Time Defrost is designed for speedy thawing of
frozen food and is one of the great advantages of a
microwave oven. Use Time Defrost to quickly thaw foods such as bread,
rolls, vegetables, fruits and frozen dinners. The Auto
Defrost setting is preferred for meat and poultry because the oven sets the defrosting time and power levels for you.
Power level 3 is automatically set when you press
TIME DEFROST pad, but you may change this for more flexibility.

Defrosting Tips
Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be defrosted
in the package. Tightly closed packages should be slit, pierced or vented, defrosted, as directed by package. Plastic storage
containers should be at least partially uncovered.

defrosted and microwaved. If the food is in a foil container. transfer it to a microwave-safe dish.

Questions and Answers
Q. When I press START, I hear a dull thumping
noise. What is it?
A. This sound is normal. It is letting you know the
oven is using a power
level
lower than 10 (High).
For even defrosting, some foods need to be broken
up or separated part of the way through the defrosting time.
Foods that spoil easily, such as milk, eggs, fish,
stuffings, poultry and pork should not be allowed to sit out for more than 1 hour after defrosting. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.
Q. Can I defrost small items in a hurry? A. Yes, but they will need more frequent attention
than usual. Raise the power level after entering the time by touching the desired power level pad. Power level 7 cuts the total defrosting time in about 1/2; power level 10 cuts the total defrosting time to approximately 1/3. During either, rotate or
stir food frequently.

Containers and Covers
Appropriate containers and coverings help assure good cooking results.
Always use microwave-safe containers and
cover them with lids or vented plastic wrap.
Wonder if it’s microwave-safe? Put it to the test described in the Microwaving Tips section.
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 full for
best results.
Be sure the outside of the cooking container and

placing food in the oven. Beads of moisture turning into steam can mislead the sensor.
Stir or rotate some foods after a beeping signal, if

By actually sensing the steam that escapes as food heats, this feature automatically adjusts the oven’s
heating time to various types and amounts of pre-cooked food.
Because all cooking containers must be covered during automatic reheating, this feature is best with foods you want to steam or retain moisture.
NOTE: Use of the metal shelf is NOT recommended.

COMBINATION AUTO ROAST
Combination Auto Roast is similar to combination
temperature cooking, using both microwave and convection cooking in conjunction with the temperature probe. However, the Combination Guide at right.
Auto Roast feature eliminates most of the steps necessary to program combination temperature cooking. Instead, you can set the entire cooking program by selecting just 1 Combination Auto Roast code.
The food is placed in a glass dish on a trivet for cooking during Combination Auto Roast. To select a code from 1 to 3, see the Combination Auto Roast

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 maybe shielded
with aluminum foil during cooking. Do not allow
foil to
touch metal shelf or oven sides because
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 my oven for
Combination Auto Roast, it beeped and flashed
A. Combination Auto Roast cannot be programmed
without the temperature probe connected to the oven 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 also want to let meats stand briefly, to
allow easier carving and serving. Most meat roasts continue to cook for a few minutes after removing from the oven.

Remember:
Q. May I use my metal roasting pan to
Combination Cook a roast?
A. No. Do not use metal cookware when using
Microwave or Combination cooking. Place the metal shelf on the floor of the oven. Then place the roast in a glass dish on the shelf.
Q. Can I switch from one Combination code to
another during cooking?
A. No. The selected Combination code may not be
changed during the cooking operation, but you
may reprogram the complete cooking instructions
if you wish.
Q. Is it necessary to place a glass dish on the oven
floor when Combination cooking?
A. No. For best roasting results, place meat in a glass
dish. Place dish on the oven shelf on floor of oven.
Combination Codes
This guide shows the oven temperature and
microwave power (watts) that are automatically set when using that particular code number. You must
set the cooking time or internal food temperature as shown in the Combination Time Cooking section and in the Convection Temperature Cooking section.
Check the Cookware and Accessories section for
correct cookware when Combination cooking.
For best roasting and browning results, whole
roasts and poultry should be cooked in a dish placed directly on the oven shelf on floor of oven.
Place meat in a glass dish on a trivet to collect
juices and prevent spattering. See Convection preheat instructions in the Convection Time Cooking section.
Some recipes call for preheating.

With this function of your new oven, you can enjoy the benefits of combination cooking with the precision of the temperature probe. Four combination codes are shown on the guide in the Combination Time Cooking section to make it easy to program microwave power level and oven temperature with only 1 entry.
How to Combination Temperature Cook
The probe makes it simple to cook to the exact degree of doneness desired, by monitoring the
internal temperature of the food. This function is exactly like combination time cooking except you set internal food temperature desired instead of cooking time.
