IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire
or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual. When using
electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

4

VENT
FAN

The fan will operate automatically under
certain conditions (see Automatic Fan feature).
Take care to prevent the starting and
spreading of accidental cooking fires while the
vent fan is in use.

• Clean the underside of the microwave often.
Do not allow grease to build up on the
microwave or the fan filters.

• In the event of a grease fire on the surface
units below the microwave oven, smother a
flaming pan on the surface unit by covering
the pan completely with a lid, cookie sheet or
flat tray.

• Use care when cleaning the vent fan filters.
Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based
oven cleaners, may damage the filters.

• When preparing flaming foods under the
microwave, turn the fan on.

• Never leave surface 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 fan is operating. To minimize
automatic fan operation, use adequate-sized
cookware and use high heat on surface units
only when necessary.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!

ARCING

If you see arcing, press the OFF pad and correct the problem.

Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the
oven. Arcing is caused by:

• The metal shelf not installed correctly so it
touches the microwave wall.

• Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.

• Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act

like antennas).

• Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins or
goldrimmed dishes, in the microwave.

• Recycled paper towels containing small metal
pieces being used in the microwave.

FOODS

5

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!

• Do not pop popcorn in your microwave oven
unless in a special microwave popcorn
accessory or unless you use popcorn labeled
for use in microwave ovens.

• Some products such as whole eggs and sealed
containers—for example, closed jars—are
able to explode and should not be heated in
this microwave oven. Such use of the
microwave oven could result in injury.

• Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven.
Pressure will build up inside egg yolk and will
cause it to burst, possibly resulting in injury.

• Operating the microwave with no food inside
for more than a minute or two may cause
damage to the oven and could start a fire. It
increases the heat around the magnetron and
can shorten the life of the oven.

• Foods with unbroken outer ‘‘skin’’ such as
potatoes, hot dogs, sausages, tomatoes,
apples, chicken livers and other giblets and
egg yolks should be pierced to allow steam to
escape during cooking.

• Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be
careful when opening any containers of hot
food, including popcorn bags, cooking
pouches and boxes. To prevent possible
injury, direct steam away from hands and
face.

• Avoid heating baby food in glass jars,
even with the lid off. Make sure all infant
food is thoroughly cooked. Stir food to
distribute the heat evenly. Be careful to
prevent scalding when warming formula or
breast milk. The container may feel cooler
than the milk really is. Always test the milk
before feeding the baby.

• SUPERHEATED WATER

Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea are able
to be overheated beyond the boiling point
without appearing to be boiling. Visible
bubbling or boiling when the container is
removed from the microwave oven is not
always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN
VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING
OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS
DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER
UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

— Do not overheat the liquid.

— Stir the liquid both before and halfway

through heating it.

— Do not use straight-sided containers with

narrow necks.

— After heating, allow the container to stand

in the microwave oven for a short time
before removing the container.

— Use extreme care when inserting a spoon

or other utensil into the container.

• Don’t defrost frozen beverages in narrow­necked 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.

• Do not overcook potatoes. They could
dehydrate and catch fire, causing damage to
your oven.

• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to
at least an INTERNAL temperature of 71°C
(160°F) and poultry to at least an INTERNAL
temperature of 82°C (180°F). Cooking to
these temperatures usually protects against
foodborne illness.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!

MICROWAVE-SAFE COOKWARE

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 microwave­safe, use this test:
Place in the oven
both the dish you
are testing and a
glass measuring cup
filled with 240 mL (1 cup) of water—set the
measuring cup either in or next to the dish.
Microwave 30–45 seconds 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 use a meat thermometer while cooking,
make sure it is safe for use in microwave
ovens.

• Do not use recycled paper products. Recycled
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.

• Use foil only as directed in this manual. TV
dinners may be microwaved in foil trays less
than 19 mm (3/4”) high; remove the top foil
cover and return the tray to the box. When
using foil in the microwave oven, keep the
foil at least 25 mm (1 inch) away from the
sides of the oven.

• Some styrofoam trays (like those that meat is
packaged on) have a thin strip of metal
embedded in the bottom. When microwaved,
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 for use in

microwave ovens. Check the package for
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 can escape.

• Cookware may become hot because of heat
transferred from the heated food. 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 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.

• Plastic cookware—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.

Follow these guidelines:

1 Use microwave-safe plastics only and use

them in strict compliance with the cookware
manufacturer’s recommendations.

2 Do not microwave empty containers.

3 Do not permit children to use plastic

cookware without complete supervision.

• Time Cook

• Time Defrost

• Express Cook

• Reheating Pizza, Casserole or Rice

The power level may also be changed during
time countdown.

1 From the Home Screen, select COOK,

2 From the Cook Screen, select TIME COOK

or EXPRESS. From the Defrost Screen,
select BY TIME. From the Reheat Screen,
select PIZZA, CASSEROLE or RICE.

3 Enter the cooking or defrosting time and

press ENTER, or select a reheat food type.

4 On the Summary Screen, press POWER

LEVEL.

5 Using the arrow pads, select desired power

level 1–10.

6 Press ENTER to enter the new power level

or CANCEL to cancel your selection.

Variable power levels add flexibility to your
microwave cooking. The power levels on your
microwave oven can be compared to the
surface units on a range. Each power level gives
you microwave energy a certain percent of the
time. Power level 7 is microwave energy 70% of
the time. Power level 3 is microwave energy
30% of the time. Most cooking will be done on
High (power level 10) which gives you 100%
power.

Power level 10 will cook faster but food may
need more frequent stirring, rotating or
turning over. A lower setting will cook more
evenly and need less stirring or rotating of the
food.

Some foods may have better flavor, texture or
appearance if one of the lower settings is used.
Use a lower power level when cooking foods
that have a tendency to boil over, such as
scalloped potatoes.

Rest periods (when the microwave energy
cycles off) give time for the food to “equalize”
or transfer heat to the inside of the food. An
example of this is shown with power level 3—
the defrost cycle. If microwave energy did not
cycle off, the outside of the food would cook
before the inside was defrosted.

Here are some examples of uses for various
power levels:

POWER LEVEL BEST USES

High 10 Fish, bacon,

vegetables,
boiling liquids.

Med-High 7 Gentle cooking of

meat and poultry;
baking casseroles
and reheating.

Humidity
Sensor

Some microwave features are Sensor functions
that detect the increasing humidity released
during cooking. The oven automatically adjusts
the cooking time to various types and amounts
of food.

When using Sensor features, do not open the
oven door until time is counting down. If the
door is opened, close it and press START
immediately.

Do not use the Sensor Features twice in
succession on the same food portion—it may
result in severely overcooked or burnt food. If
food is undercooked after the countdown, use
TIME COOK for additional cooking time.

If you wish to adjust the cooking time, press
LESS DONE or MORE DONE within the first
30 seconds to reduce or add time.

• The proper containers and covers are
essential for best sensor cooking.

• Always use microwave-safe containers and
cover them with lids or vented plastic wrap.
Never use tight-sealing plastic covers—they
can prevent steam from escaping and cause
food to overcook.

• Be sure the outside of the cooking container
and the inside of the microwave oven are dry
before placing food in the oven. Beads of
moisture turning into steam can mislead the
sensor.

4 Check to make sure the time and power

level are correct, and press START on the

For best results, turn food over after half the
time and break apart or rearrange pieces for
more even defrosting. Shield any warm areas
with small pieces of foil.

Power level is automatically set at 3, but can be
changed. You can defrost small items quickly
by raising the power level after entering the
time. Power level 7 cuts the total defrosting
time in about half; power level 10 cuts the total
time to approximately 1/3. However, food will
need more frequent attention than usual.

A dull thumping noise may be heard during
defrosting. This is normal when oven is not
operating at High power.

Defrosting Tips

• Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be

defrosted in the package. Closed packages
should be slit, pierced or vented AFTER food
has partially defrosted. Plastic storage
containers should be partially uncovered.

• Family-size, prepackaged frozen dinners can
be defrosted and microwaved. If the food is in
a foil container, transfer it to a microwave-safe
dish.

• For more even defrosting of larger foods,
such as roasts, use Auto Defrost. Be sure large
meats are completely defrosted before
cooking.

• Foods that spoil easily should not be allowed
to sit out for more than one hour after
defrosting. Room temperature promotes the
growth of harmful bacteria.

• When defrosted, food should be cool but
softened in all areas. If still slightly icy, return
to the microwave very briefly, or let it stand a
few minutes.

Food microwaves best when placed on the
turntable or on the shelf in the lower position.

Only use the shelf when reheating on more
than one level. Do not store the shelf inside
the oven cavity.

• Make sure the shelf is positioned properly
inside the microwave to prevent damage to
the oven from arcing.

• Do not use a microwave browning dish on the
shelf. The shelf could overheat.

• Do not use the oven with the shelf on the
microwave floor. This could damage the
microwave.

• Use pot holders when handling the shelf—it
may be hot.

• Do not use the shelf when cooking popcorn.

• Do not use the shelf with Sensor Cooking or

Reheat.

To reheat on 2 levels OR
To reheat 2 dishes on the lower level:

1 Multiply reheat time by 1-1/2.

2 Switch places after 1/2 the time.

To reheat on 3 levels:

1 Turn the turntable off.

2 Double the reheating time.

3 Switch places twice and give the dishes a

1/2 turn during reheating. (Place dense
foods, or those that require a longer cook
time, on the upper shelf first.)

Term Definition

Arcing Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is caused by:

• the metal shelf being installed incorrectly and touching the

microwave walls.

• metal or foil touching the side of the oven.

• foil that is not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennas).

• metal such as twist-ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed dishes.

• recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces.

Covering Covers hold in moisture, allow for more even heating and reduce cooking

time. Venting plastic wrap or covering with wax paper allows excess steam
to escape.

Shielding In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked foods to prevent

over-browning. When microwaving, you use small strips of foil to shield
thin parts, such as the tips of wings and legs on poultry, which would cook
before larger parts.

Standing Time When you cook with regular ovens, foods such as roasts or cakes are

allowed to stand to finish cooking or to set. Standing time is especially
important in microwave cooking. Note that a microwaved cake is not
placed on a cooling rack.

Venting After covering a dish with plastic wrap, you vent the plastic wrap by

turning back one corner so excess steam can escape.

How to
Clean the
Inside

Walls, Floor, Inside Window, Metal and
Plastic Parts on the Door

Some spatters can be removed with a paper
towel; others may require a damp cloth.
Remove greasy spatters with a sudsy cloth, then
rinse with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive
cleaners or sharp utensils on oven walls.

Never use a commercial oven cleaner on any
part of your microwave.

Removable Turntable and Turntable
Support

To prevent breakage, do not place the
turntable into water just after cooking. Wash it
carefully in warm, sudsy water or in the
dishwasher. The turntable and support can be
broken if dropped. Remember, do not operate
the oven without the turntable and support in
place.

Shelf

Clean with mild soap and water or in the
dishwasher.

Do not clean in a self-cleaning oven.

The vent fan has 2 metal reusable grease filters.

Models that recirculate air back into the room
also use a charcoal filter.

38

Charcoal Filter behind ActiveVent

(on some models)

Reusable Grease Filters

(on all models)

We recommend against using cleaners with
ammonia or alcohol, as they can damage the
appearance of the microwave oven. If you
choose to use a common household cleaner,
first apply the cleaner directly to a clean cloth,
then wipe the soiled area.

Bottom

Clean off the grease and dust on the bottom
often. Use a solution of warm water and
detergent.

Case

Clean the outside of the microwave with a
sudsy cloth.

Rinse and then dry. Wipe the window clean
with a damp cloth.

Control Panel and Door

Wipe with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
Do not use cleaning sprays, large amounts of
soap and water, abrasives or sharp objects on
the panel—they can damage it. Some paper
towels can also scratch the control panel.

Door Seal

It is important to keep the area clean where
the door seals against the microwave. Use only
mild, non-abrasive detergents applied with a
clean sponge or soft cloth. Rinse well.

Stainless Steel (on some models)

Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will scratch the
surface.

To clean the stainless steel surface, use a hot,
damp cloth with a mild detergent suitable for
stainless steel surfaces. Use a clean, hot, damp
cloth to remove soap. Dry with a dry, clean
cloth.

If food soil remains, try a general kitchen
cleaner.

For hard-to-clean soil, use a standard stainless
steel cleaner, such as Bon-Ami®or Cameo.

®

Apply cleaner with a damp sponge. Use a
clean, hot, damp cloth to remove cleaner.
Dry with a dry, clean cloth. Always scrub lightly
in the direction of the grain.

After cleaning, use a stainless steel polish, such
as Stainless Steel Magic,®Revere Copper and
Stainless Steel Cleaner®or Wenol All Purpose
Metal Polish.®Follow the product instructions
for cleaning the stainless steel surface.

The metal filters trap grease released by foods
on the cooktop. They also prevent flames from
foods on the cooktop from damaging the
inside of the microwave.

For this reason, the filters must ALWAYS be in
place when the hood is used. The grease filters
should be cleaned once a month, or as needed.

Charcoal
Filter (on
some models)

The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned. It must
be replaced. Order Part No. WB2X10956 from

air will be recirculated through a disposable
charcoal filter that helps remove smoke and
odors.

The charcoal filter should be replaced when it
is noticeably dirty or discolored (usually after
6 to 12 months, depending on hood usage).

Replacing the
