Tips
@ Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be defrosted in the package.
@ For even defrosting, many foods need to be broken up or separated part of the way through the defrosting time.
@Homemade dinners can be frozen in shallow foil trays and heated for later use. (Do not heat on metal shelf). Select foods which microwave well.
@Pre-packaged frozen dinners can be defrosted and microwave cooked, but foil tray must be returned to box before cooking on metal shelf.
@ Check your Cookbook for other defrosting tips.

Q. Can I leave my probe in the oven if it’s not inserted in the food?
A. No. If the probe is left inside the oven, touching the oven wall, and not inserted in food, you may c@n­age the oven. Q. t-low do I know what tempera-
ture to set?
A. Your Cookbook contains sec-
tions on all types of foods showing the temperatures needed to cook the foods to different degrees of doneness. For reheating, refer to Reheating Charts in the front of the Cookbook for specific temperatures.

Step 3: Touch START. The readout display shows the time as it counts down.
Step 4: W-hentime is up, oven will signal and display will show time of day.
The HOLD/TIMER can also be used to program “standing time” between microwave cooking func-
tions. The time can range from one second to 99 minutes and 99 sec­onds. A HOLD, or “standing” time may be found in some of your own recipes or Cookbook.
To set the oven to delay cooking up to 99 minutes follow Steps 1 and 2 to enter hold time, then set

The Cook CodeTMcontrol provides a short-cut
method for entering time and the Power Level
your microwave oven.
for recipes which need little or no attention, and which require no change of power level during cook­ing. Recipes which require additional ingredients, attention or change in power ieve[ during micro­waving should be cooked in the usual manner. Also, recipes with cooking time of less than one minute or more than 99 minutes can not use Cooking Codes.
To understand the Cook Code control, it is impor­tant to know what the numbers mean and what the sequence is. The first and second numbers, if set­ting a3 digit Cooking Code, indicate the amount of time you desire; the last control entry number is always the Power Level. For example, 125 means
12 minutes at Power Level 5. NOTE: Your oven can only be programmed to 99 minutes when using the Cook Code control and the highest Power Level is 10 which is represented by “O”.
2 digit Cook Code control entry, the first is time, the second is power level. For example, 50 means 5 minutes at Power Level 10.
Cooking Codes are only used
When setting a
017
On the following page is shown many frequently
prepared foods and their codes. It’s easy, though, to make Cooking Codes for many other recipes. Just select one or two digits representing the length
of cooking time desired, and a final digit for the
Power Level required. The Cooking Codes given on the chart are for the minimum time needed, to avoid
overcooking which can dry out food and make it tasteless and tough. If you feel that more cooking is
needed, add additional time by changing the first
digit of the Code. You cannot add seconds to the
cycle time—Cooking Codes are for whole minutes
only. If your recipe calis for Power Level changes or
different amounts of time needed between addition
of ingredients, you may set one Cooking Code for the first part of the recipe, then after completion, set
another Cooking Code for that period of time and
Power Level.
Remember that Cooking Codes are for micro-
waving by time only. If you are microwaving by temperature, you must use the Temp Cook or Auto
Roast function.

Foil may be used to line the
@
broiler pan and rack. However, be sure to cut openings in the
foil to correspond with the slits
in the broiler rack so fat drips
into the pan below. For all weights of chicken, broil with door closed. Placing food closer to the top of the oven increases smoking, spattering, exterior browning on the meat and the possibility of food fat catching on fire. Al­ways keep rack 3-5 inches
from the broiling unit.
Step 1: Check the weight of the meat and place, fat side up, on the rack in the broiler pan that came with your oven. This helps the meat to baste itself.
Step 2: Use shelf position “A” or “B”; or the one indicated on Roasting Chart, page 24. Place Oven Shelf on correct embossed

Be sure meat is cooked to your satisfaction. Most meats con­tinue to cook slightly while standing after being removed from the oven. This should be taken into ~consideration when determining your cooking time.
Always use a roasting pan that fits the size of your meat. A
roast placed in a pan too small
for its size will drip over the
edge. You may cook frozen meat
roasts without thawing. How­ever, you must allow more cooking time, For large roasts, add 10-25 minutes per pound.
For roasts under 5 pounds, add
s
10 minutes per pound.
To slow down surface browning on turkeys, you can use a foil “tent”.
The tent-shaped foil should be laid loosely over the poultry so the heat can circulate under the foil.
Most frozen poultry should be thawed before cooking to en­sure it is done evenly, Some, however, can be cooked suc­cessfully without thawing. Check the packer’s label for specific directions.

Clean the outside of your microwave
oven with soap and water, then

Op&ing the oven door a few m[n­utes after cooking helps air out the inside. An occasional thorough wip­ing with a solution of baking soda
and water keepsthe interior fresh. Spi~~sand spatters are easyto re-
movefromwalls,floorand antenna cover.That’s becausethere’s little
heat except in the food, or some­times in the utensil. Some spatters wipe up with a paper towel, some may require a damp cloth. Remove greasy spatters with a sudsy cloth,
then rinse and dry.

edge of the meat. Use tongs to turn meat over to prevent
the piercing meat and loosing juices.

directions for cleaning. Be sure to follow these direc­tions carefully to assure maximum use of your cook-
ing center. NOTE: Let oven parts cool before cleaning manually.
Do not clean the bakeunit or broil unit. Any soil will burn off
when the unit is heated. NOTE: The bake unit is hinged and can be lifted to clean the oven floor. If spillover, residue, or ash accumulates around the bake unit, gently wipe around the unit with warm water.
Drain fat, cool pan and rack slightly. (Do not let soiled pan and rack stand in oven to cool). Sprinkle on detergent. Fill pan with warm water and spread cloth or paper towel over the rack. Let both stand for a few minutes. Wash; scour if necessary. Rinse and dry. OPTION: The broiler pan and rack may also be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Pull off knobs. Washgentiy but do not soak. Dry and return con­trols to range making sure to match flat area on the knob and shaft.
Wash all glass with cloth dampened in soapy water. Rinse and polish with a dry cloth. If knobs on the control panel are re­moved, do not allow water to run down inside the surface of glass while cleaning.
Wash, rinse, and then polish with a dry cloth. DC)NOT USE steel wool, abrasives, ammonia, acids, or commercial oven cleaners which may damage the finish.
Avoid cleaning powders or harsh abrasives which may scratch the enamel.
If acids should spill on the range while it is hot, use a dry paper towel or cloth to wipe up right away. When the surface has cooled, wash and rinse.
For other spills, such as fat smatterings, etc., wash with soap and water when cooled and then rinse. Polish with a dry cloth.
