For Personal Safety, This Appliance Must Be Prop­erly Grqmded. The power cord of this appliance is

equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug
which mates with a standard three-prong (ground­ing) wall receptacle (Fig. 1) to minimize the possi-

bility of electric shock hazard from this appliance,
The customer should have the wall receptacle and
circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make
sure the receptacle is properly grounded.

Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is en­countered, it is the personal responsibility and obli-

gation of the customer to have it replaced with a
properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

Do Not Under Any Circumstances Cut or Remove
The Third (Ground) ProngFrom The PowerCord,

A, Usage Situations Where Appliance’s Power
Cord Will BeDisconnected Infrequently,

Because of potential safety hazards under certain

conditions, we strongly recommend against the use
of an adapter plug, However, if you still elect to use
an adapter, where local codes permit, a TEMPO-

●

RARY CONNECTION may be made to a properly
grounded two-prong wall receptacle by the use of a
UL listed adapter which is available at most local
hardware stores (Fig. 2). The larger slot in the

adapter must be aligned with the larger slot in the
wall receptacle to provide proper polarity in the
connection of the power cord.

caution: Attaching
the wall receptacle cover screw does not ground
the appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and
not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded
through the house wiring. The customer should
have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to
makesure the receptacle is properly grounded.

When disconnecting the power cord from the
adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand. If
this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is very
likely to break with repeated use. Should this hap-

the adapter ground terminal to

pen, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper

ground has again been established.
B. Usage Situations Where Appliance’s Power

CordWHJBe Disconnected Frequently.
Do not use an adapter plug in these situations be-

cause disconnecting of the power cord places un­due strain on the adapter and leads to eventual fail­ure of the adapter ground terminal, The customer
should have the two-prong wall receptacle replaced
with a three-prong (grounding) receptacle by a
qualified electrician before using the appliance.

-.

1. For personal safety the oven must be properly

..—

grounded. See grounding instructions on page 3 of
this book. For best operation, plug this appliance
into its own electrical outlet, to prevent flickering of
lights, biowing of fuse or tripping of circuit breaker.

2. Use of extension cords. Because of potential
safety hazards under certain conditions we strongly
recommend against the use of an extension cord,
However, if you stiii elect to use an extension cord,
it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL listed 3-wire

grounding type appliance extension cord and that
the current carrying rating of the cord in amperes
be 15 amperes or greater. Such extension cords are
obtainable through Generai Eiectric service. If you

do use an extension cord with your microwave
oven, the interior iight may fiicker and the biower

sound may vary when oven is in use.

3. Be certain to place the front surface of the door

three inches or more back from the countertop
edge to avoid accidental tipping of the appliance in
normal usage.

4. Use metal only as directed in cookbook. Metal
strips as used on meat roasts are helpfui in cooking

food when used as directed. Metai trays may be
used for TV dinners, However, when using metai in
the microwave oven, keep metal at least l-inch

away from sides of microwave oven.

5. Do not operate the oven while empty to avoid

damage to the oven and the danger of fire. If by ac-

cident the oven shouid run empty a minute or two,

no harm is done. However, try to avoid operating
the oven empty at aii times–it saves energy and
proiongs iife of the oven.

6. Cooking utensils may become hot because of
heat transferred from the heated food. This is espe­cially true if plastic wrap has been covering the top

and handies of the utensii. Pot hoiders may be
needed to handle the utensii.

7. Sometimes, the oven shelf can become too hot

to touch. Be careful touching the sheif during and

after cooking.

8. DO not use any thermometer in food you are
microwaving unless that thermometer is designed
or recommended for use in the microwave oven.

9. Remove the temperature probe from the oven
when not using It to cook with, if you ieave the
probe inside the oven without inserting it in food or
iiquid, and turn on microwave energy, it can create
electrical arcing in the oven, and damage oven
waiis.

10. Remove wire twist-ties on paper and piastic
bags before placing in oven. Twist-ties sometimes

cause bag to heat, and may cause fire.

1f .Don’t defrostfrozen beverages in narrow necked

batties especially carbonated ones, Even if the con­tainer is opened, pressure can build up. This can
cause the container to burst, resulting in injury,

12. Don’tovercook. Excessive overcooking dehy-

drates potatoes, and may Gausethem to catch fire
causing damage,

13. If food should ever ignite: Keep the oven door
closed. Turn off the power immediately: Touch

CLEAR/OFF or disconnect power cord or shut off
power at the fuse circuit breaker panei.
14, Boiling eggs (in and out of shell] is not recom-
mended for microwave cooking. Pressure can buiid
up inside egg yoik and may cause it to burst, resuit­ing in injury,

15. Foodswith unbroken outer “skin” such as po­tatoes, hot dogs or sausages, tomatoes, appies,
chicken iivers and other gibiets, and eggs (see
above) shouid be pierced to aiiow steam to escape
during cooking.

16.’’Boilable9’cooking pouches and tightly closed
plastic bags shouid be slit, pricked or vented as di-

rected in Cookbook. if they are not, piastic couid

burst during or immediately after cooking, possibiy
resuiting in injury. Aiso, piastic storage containers
shouid be at ieast partiaiiy uncovered because they
form a tight seai. When cooking with containers

tightiy covered with piastic wrap, remove covering

carefuiiy and direct steam away from hands and
face.

17. Do not pop popcorn in your microwave oven
uniess in a speciai microwave popcorn accessory

or uniess you use popcorn iabeied for use in micro­wave ovens. Because of the heat generated without
these precautions, the container couid catch fire.

18. Plastic Utensfls–Piastic utensiis designed for

microwave cooking are very usefui, but shouid be
used carefuily. Even microwave piastic may not be
as toierant of overcooking conditions as are giass
or ceramic materiais and may soften or char if sub­jected to short periods of overcooking. in ionger ex­posures to overcooking, the food and utensiis
couid ignite, For these reasons: 1) Use microwave
piastics oniy “and use them” in strict compliance
with the utensii manufacturer’s recommendations.

2) Do not subject empty utensils to microwaving. 3)
Do not permit chiidren to use piastic utensiis with-

out compiete supervision.

19. Do not use your microwave oven to dry news-

papers. if overheated, they can catch fire.

20. lfse of Shelf Accessory. To position sheif so
that it is secureiy “seated,” insert into the oven cav­ity above sheif supports and completely to the back
oven waii. Drop into piace so that the recessed
areas are over the sheif supports. To remove sheif,
lift sheif above supports and then puii forward and

out. Do not piace food on sheif uniess it is secureiy

“seated” on the supports.

21. When cooking pork either conventionally or in

the microwave oven, foiiow our directions exactly

and aiways cook the meat to at ieast 170°. This

assures that, in the remote possibility that trichina

may be present in the m~at, it wiii be kiiled and
meat wiil be safe to eat,

Microwaving with your new oven can offer a variety of easy

cooking options. From freezer-to-table ready meals, use the
AUTOMATIC COOKING CONTROL option with the fully in­structional display. The TIME COOK and TEMP COOK fea­tures are especially effective for your specialty dishes or fa­vorite recipes.

The Automatic Cooking Controi feature does your cooking
for you once you have completed the basic cooking steps

outlined in the Use and Care Book. For your cooking ease
and convenience, the Auto Cook and Auto Roast control

pads allow you to use this feature to practically do your
cooking for you. Just follow the electronic display’s step-by­step programming instructions; then let the auto sensor de­tect the food’s steam and automatically cook your meal.

With Auto Roast, meats are cooked as you desire and held
for up to one hour; for added convenience, Auto Roast Code
6 simmers and slow-cooks foods which need long, gentle
cooking for tenderizing or flavoring. This Code also holds
your dish for an unlimited amount of time at the end of
cooking.

Conventional microwaving offers additional benefits for the
cook with a creative flair. With microwave energy, foods
cook faster while retaining their natural moisture. Reheating
is easy because unusual shapes and sizes won’t be over­cooked, and defrosting is particularly convenient because
lesstime is spent in food preparation.

—

—

——

For precise cooking tasks, use the conventional microwave

features. With TIME COOK, you simply preset the time and
your oven turns off automatically. TEMP COOK, which deter­mines doneness through the internal temperature of the
cooked dish, shuts off automatically when the food reaches
apreset temperature.

Read this book to iearn the many different things your micro­wave oven can do. You wiii find a variety of cooking methods

and programs specialized to suit your individual iifestyie. We
think you wiii find microwaving the contemporary way, and
the smart way, to cook.

The readout panei dispiays five 8’s and 18 POWER on the up-

per portion and aii of the oven functions on the iower portion.
After 15 seconds, aii iights disappear and “RESET” fiashes in

The ALNO Cook pad may be used to eliminate your

—

—

need to look up cooking time in the Cookbook, or
guessing how long to set cooking time. By actually
sensing the steam which escapes as food micro­waves, this feature automatically adjusts the oven’s
cooking time to various types and amounts of food.

Because cooking containers must be covered, this
feature is best with foods which you wish to steam
or to retain moisture. Foods which are best micro­waved uncovered or only lightly covered should be
cooked using time or temperature settings, or Cook
Code’” control.

After touching the Auto Cook pad, and pressing

Start, you will see the word AUTO on the readout,
which indicates that the sensor has been activated
to sense steam from the food. To prevent the es­cape of steam from the oven, do not open the door

the sensor detects steam from the foods. Other
Auto Cook control settings, which are for fresh or
frozen foods, need additional time after steam has
been sensed. For these foods, the oven determines
the amount of additional time needed, then auto­matically switches the oven to Time Cook for the
necessary cooking time remaining. Oven beeps

when it switches to Time Cook (AUTO on readout is

replaced by numbers indicating cooking time), and
oven door can be opened for stirring or rotating
food,
Be careful of steam when removing tight covers.

When you remove cover, direct the steam away
from hands and face.

Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and
interior of microwave oven are dry,

Always cover food containers using lids or plastic

Answers

Q. Why does my oven autornaticallyQcut off after the
AUTO cycle when using Auto Cook Control Code 1
w-henit does no?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 or AUTO.

Q. H my food is not completely cooked after using

the suggested Auto Cook Centrol Code, what

ShOUki ! do?

A. Thick starchy or dense foods may require some
additional time cooking. Use TIME COOK and
Power Level 10for a few minutes until completion,

C?.Do al! fresh or frozen vegetables require a
standing period after cooking with AUTO COOK?

A. Most vegetables are cooked to a crisp state dur-

ing Auto Cook, just as in regular microwaving,
Therefore, i! 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 ! don’t

cook?
A. Oven senses steam too quickly which shortens

the cooking time thus leaving undercooked dish,
Recover tightly and reset Auto Cook,

Q. Do the shapes and sizes of food make a differ=
ence when using Auto Cook?

A. Yes, in some cases, larger pieces will require ad-

ditional Time Cooking. Be sure to check suggested
arrangement of pieces in the dish, since proper ar­rangement is often a successful tip in regular micro-

waving,

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 since you should not open the door
during the AUTO phase of cooking without affect­ing end cooking results,

IQ. My scalloped potatoes were not completely

cooked when I removed the dish after Auto Cook.
What iswrong?

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.

fully cover the dish in Auto

Q. Do fresh or frozen vegetables require water
when using Auto Cook?

A. Yes, Add water as recommended on chart to the
vegetables and cover well for even, complete
cooking.

Q. Would my plastic containers with very tight fit-

ting 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 havesome moisture in orderto 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.
Q. May I use Auto Cook when I am cooking many

foods in more than one dish or casserole?
A. No, because ofdifferent food densities, attention

needed during cooking, and food amounts, it is best

to use TIME COOK when cooking many foods.

Q. Why was my roast not fully cooked even though
the temperature on the readout was correct and
Auto Roastcompleted?

A. When cooking with Auto Roast, the temperature

probe must be inserted properly as fully described
in the Cookbook, After turning meat over or rotat­ing, the probe should be checked to make sure it
hasn’t slipped or changed position.

Q. Last time I used Auto Roast I removed the roast

from the oven to turn Hover. When I replaced roast
in oven and reconnected the meat probe, AUTO
reappeared. Why?

A. The oven and roast may have cooled to below

80°, or probe may have been repositioned. Con­tinue roasting and numbers will soon reappear,

Q. Are there any particular trivets that work better

than others?
A. Yes, flat glass trivets such as lids or dish covers

give more even cooking results than plastic trivets.
Also, ceramic ridge-bottomed roasting dishes work
well. Plastic trivets require meat to be turned over

more frequently because the grid design and legs

allow the bottom of the meat to stay cooler as it

cooks, than glass trivets do,

CLWhy doesn’t the roast continue cooking during
the standing or holding time?

A, The oven automatically reaches finished temper-

ature and then decreases to a lower power level to
prevent overcooking, Thus an even temperature is
maintained,

The Defrost setting is designed for
even thawing necessary for large
amounts of food and is one of the

most important advantages of a
microwave oven, making defrost­ing quick and easy with little attefi­tion. Power Level 3 is automatically
set for defrosting, but you may

change this for more flexibility, See

your Cookbook for the complete

defrosting chart.

To become better acquainted with
your Defrost function, defrost fro­zen pork chops by following the
steps below.

Step 1: Place package of frozen
chops in the oven and close door,

Step 2: Touch DEFROST. Display
reads :0 and Power 3. “Enter Def
Time” flashes.

Step 3: Touch 8, 0, and Ofor 8 min-

utes, “Def Time”, 8:00 and Power

3 are displayed.

Step ,4: Touch START. “Def Time

Left” shows and time counts down
on display. When cycle is com­pleted, “END” flashes, the oven
signals and automatically shuts
off.

@ Foods frozen in paper or plastic
can be defrosted in the package,

@ For even defrosting, many foods
need to be turned over, rotated, or

broken up part of the way through

the defrosting time.

Q. Why don’t the defrosting times

in the Cookbook seem right for my
food?

A. Cookbook times are average,

Defrosting time can vary according
to the temperature in yaur freezer,
Set your oven for the time in­dicated in your Cookbook, If your
food is still not completely thawed
at the end of that time, re-set your
oven and adjust the time ac­cordingly,

Tips

a Make sure all utensils used in
your microwave oven are labeled

“suitable for microwaving”. Check
your Cookbook for specific test to
determine “microwave-safe” uten­sils.

e Paper towels, wax paper, and

‘plastic wrap can be used to cover

dishes in order to retain moisture
and prevent spattering.

@ Most microwaved foods require
stirring, rotating, or rearranging.
Check your Cookbook for specific
instructions for the food you are
microwaving,

@Some foods such as unshelled

eggs and hot dogs must be
pricked to allow steam to escape

during cooking.

Q. I set my oven for the time called

for in the recipe but at the end of
the time ajlowed, my dish wasn’t
done. What happened?

A. Since house power varies due

to time or location, many Time
Cook recjpes give you a time range
to prevent overcooking, Set the
oven for minimum time, test the

food for doneness, and cook your

dish a little longer, if necessary,

Q. I want to cook” my dish on a
Power Level other than HIGH, what
do I need to do?

A. To change the Power Level,
touch the POWER LEVEL pad,

“Enter Power”” flashes on the dis­play panel, Enter the desired
number,

Q. Can I interrupt my Time Cook
function to check the food?

A. Yes, To resume cooking, simply
close the door and touch START.

NOTE: Microwave power will not
come cm until you are ready, You
must touch S-TARTfor cooking to
begin.

Q. I touched the number pads and
selected my power level. When I
touched START, however, my oven
didn’t come on. Why not?

A. The TIME COOK pad must be

touched before setting the number

pads or else your oven will not be­gin cooking.

Q. Are there any foods I can’t

TEMP COOK?

A. Yes, Delicate butter icings, ice

cream, frozen whipped toppings,
etc., soften rapidly at warm tem­peratures. Batters and doughs as
well as frozen foods are also diffi­cult to cook precisely with the
probe. It is best to TIME COOK
these foods.

Q+ Why did “PROBE” flash on the

display after I touched Wart?
A. “PROBE” will flash on the dis-

play if you have not securely

seated the end of the probe into
the receptacle in the oven wall or if
you touch TEMP COOK and have
forgotten to use the probe,

choking Tips

@Where you have a choice of
Power Levels, use a lower setting;
it will heat more evenly even
though requiring more time.

@ Be sure frozen food has been
completely defrosted before in­serting probe. Probe may break off
if used in frozen foods,

@ Always insert probe into the
center of meaty areas; take care

not to touch the fat or the bone.
@ Insert probe as horizontally as
possible into foods as directed in
the recipes. Make sure the handle
does not touch the food. The probe
is easiest to use when inserted
from the front,

@ Usethe clip to keep the probe in
place while heating.

@ Cover foods as directed in
Cookbook for moisture control and

quick, even heating,

Q. Can 1 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 dam-

age the oven.
Q. Can I TEMP COOK different

portions of food at different

temperatures?
A, Yes. The temperature probe

gives you the freedom to cook dif­ferent portions of food at different
temperatures to suit individual eat­ing styles, Simply place the probe
in the food and change the temp­erature setting as needed,

make the most of this truly new feature.
Standard cooking techniques require setting the

size to the size of the food being cooked, Coverings

Easy to use

Simply touch two control pads–AUTO COOK and
the desired Code number—and then START, A
chart on the oven control panel gives a complete
list of Codes for frequently prepared foods. The
readout display shows AUTO until steam is sensed

and then signals, and displays time counting down.

During AUTO, oven should not be opened, but

when oven signals, most foods should be turned,

Appropriate containers and coverings help assure
good cooking results. Containers should match in

Automatic Roasting uses the temperature probe
rather than the electronic sensbr to cook meats
evenly to the desired degree of doneness. The oven

continually monito,rs the food’s internal tempera­ture. Unlike ordinary Temperature Cooking, the
oven changes power levels two or three times
depending on the degree of doneness during cook­ing to give you the best results automatically. Meat
is cooked evenly, without toughening because lower
power Ieve!s are used asthe meat temperature rises

thus cooking meats evenly while retaining the nat­ural juices. After cooking, the oven switches auto­matically to Hold for an hour. Food stays warm
without overcooking.
