• Some products suclt as

wltole eggs and sealed containers t_)r example,

closed jars--are able to explode and should not

be lteated in tltis microwave oven. Such use

of tlte microwave o``_n could result in il/.iury.

• Do not boil eggs in a

• Metal, such as twist-ties,

to your oven.

o Cook meat and poultry

thoroughly--meat to at least an INTERNAl,

temperature of ] 60°F and poultry to at least an INTERNAl, temperature of ] 80°K Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against

Make sure all cookware used in your microwave

oven is suitable lot 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 tbr

Illicfowaving."

How to test for a microwave- safe dish.

• If you are not sure if

a dish is microwave-sale, use tl-fis test: Place in the

oven 1)oth the dish you are testing and a glass measuring cup filled with 1 cup of water--set the measuring cup either

in or next to the dish. Microwave 30-45 seconds

at lfigh. If the dish lmats, 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-sale.

If you use a meat thermometer wl-file

cooking, make sure it is sale Jot use in microwave

()VeilS,

• Do not use recycled paper products. P,ecycled paper towels, napkins and waxed paper can

contain metal flecks

which may cause arcing or ignite. Paper products containing nylon or nylon filaments should be avoided, as they may also ignite.

• Some stvrolbam tl_ay:s

(like those that meat is

packaged on) have a thin strip of metal embedded

in the bottom. When microwavcd, the metal can

burn the floor of the oven

or ignite a paper towel.

• Do not use the microwave

to dry newspapers.

• Not all plastic wrap is suitable Jot use in

ii/icrowave ovells.

Check the package Jot proper use.

• 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 Call escape.

• Cookware may become hot because of heat

translcrred tiom the heated tood. Pot holders

may be needed to handle the cookware.

• "Boilable" cooking 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 il/jury. Ms(), plastic storage containers should be at least partially uncovered because they form a tight seal. YVhen cooking with containers tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove covering careflflly and direct steam away ti'om

hands and lace.

SPECIAL NOTES ABO UF MICRO WAVING

o Use %il only as directed in

this manual. When using toil in tile microwave

oven, keep the toil at least ]" away from tile sides of

the oven.

The tim will operate automatically under

certain conditions (see

Automatic Fan teamre).

Take care to prevent tile starting and spreading of accidental cooking fires

while tile vent tim is ill use.

o Clean tile underside of

the microwave often. Do not allow grease

to build up on the microwave or the

tim filter.

Plastic cookware--Plasfic cookware designed %r

microwave cooking is very useflll, but should be used carefllll)_ Even microwave- sate 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 tood and cookware could ignite.

o In the event of a grease

fire on the surface units below the microwave

oven, smother a flaming pan on the surfilce unit by covering the pan completely with a lid, a cookie sheet or a fiat tra>

o Use care when cleaning

the vent tim filter. Corrosive cleaning

agents, such as lye-1)ased oven cleaners, may damage the filter.

Follow these guidelines:

I Use microwave-sate

plastics only and use them in strict compliance

with the cookware

n] }lnlltilC tu re r _S

recon/n/endatlons.

2 Do not microwave empty

containers.

Do not permit children to use plastic cookware

without comple/e

supervision.

o When preparing

flaming %ods under the microwave, turn the vent tim on.

o Never leave surtitce units

beneath your microwave oven unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite and spread if the

microwave vent t_m is operating. To minimize

automatic tim operation, use adequate sized cookware and use high

heat on surt_tce units only when necessary.

GR0 UNDING TRUC770N /OFHONAL KEIS

This appliance is equipped with a power coM having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an

Ensure proper gr0und outlet that is properly exists before use, installed alld _TOtlllded.

WARNING

Improperuse of the groundingplugcanresult

in a risk of electric shock.

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of

an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the

risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire

lot the electric current.

Consuh a qualified electrician or service

mchnician if the grounding instructions are not

complemly understood, or if doultt exists as to

whether the appliance is properly grounded.

If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall Otlflet, it is

your personal responsiltilitv and oltligafion to have it replaced with a properly grounded 2_prong wall

outlet.

Do not, tinder any

circtlmstaltces, ctlt or

remove the third (ground) prong fi'om the power cord.

Do not use an adapter plug with tlfis appliance.

Do not use an extension cord with tlfis appliance.

If the power cord is too short, have a qualified

electrician or service teclmician install an outlet

near the appliance.

For best opecafion, plug this appliance into its own electrical outlet to prevent flickering of lights, l)lowing of filse or tripping of circuit

\;]triable power levels add flexibility' to microwave cooking. The power levels

on tile n/icrowllve o',_n can be compared to the

S/lrJ_lce units on a range. High (power level 10) or fldl power is the thstest way to cook and gives you 100% powen Each power level gives you microwave energy a certain percent of

the time. Power level 7 is microwave energy 70% of

tile time. Power level 3 is energy" 30% of the time.

A high setting (10) will

cook t{tster but fi)od mW need more ti'equent stirring, rotating or turning oven Most cooking will be done on High (power level

10). A lower setting will cook more evenly and need less stirring or rotating of

the tood.

Some toods may have better flav(m texture or

appearance if one of tile lower settings is used. Use a hlwer power level when

cooking toods tllat have a tendency to l)oil over, snell

as scalloped potatoes.

Rest periods (wllen tlle microwave energy cycles off) give time tor tlle tood

to "'equalize" or thruster heat to the inside of the

fi)od. An example of this is shown with power level
