ALJT’ONMWICFANFEATURE

Cooking appliancesinstalled undertheovenmight, under some heavy usage conditions, cause temperatures high enough to overheat some internal partsof the microwaveoven.

To prevent overheating from taking place,the vent

fan is designed to automatically turn on at low

speedif excessivetemperaturesoccur. Should this happen,the fan cannot be manually turned Gtf,

but

will automatically turn off when the internal parts

have cooled.

The fan may stay on up to approxb

mately 30 minutes after the range and microwave ovencontrols havebeenturned off.

and

0. A~ethere any particulartrivets

that work better than others? A. Yes, flat glass trivets such as

lids or dish covers give mom even cooking resultsthan plastic trivets. Also,ceramicridge-bottomedroasting dishes work well. Plastictrivets 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 glasstrivets do.

CLIs it necessaryto always cover

foods during Auto Roast? A. No, but a loose covering helps

preventspattering and hold moisture in food,

CL Why was my roast not fully cooked even though the temperature cm the readout was correct and Auto Roastcompleted?

A. Whencooking with Auto Roast, the temperature probe must be insertedproperly asfully described inthe Cookbook,Afterturningmeat over or rotating, the probe should be chocked to make sure it hasn’t slipped or changed pmition.

Q. last

time I used Auto Roast

removedthe roast from the oven

to turn it over. When I replaced

roast in oven and reconnectedthe meat probe, a lower temperature appeared.Why?

A, The oven and roast may have cooled to below the temperature when you r~moved it, or probe

mayhavebeen repositioned. Continue roasting and numbers will sooncount upward again.

HOWtoUse COOkCOde~~Control

CookCodeTMisa short-cut control for enteringtime and the Power Level on your microwaveoven. Be sureto check your Cookbookfor specific codesfor

specific recipes.

To understand the Cook Code control, it is important tOknow what the numbersmeanand what the

sequenceis. The first and second numbers, if setting a 3 digit Cook Code, indicate the amgunt of time you desire:the last control entry number is alwavs the Power Level.For examde, 125means 12

minutes at Power Level 5. NOTE: Your oven can only be programmedto 99 minuteswhen using the Cook Code control and the highest Power Level is 10which is represented by “0”. When setting a 2 digit Cook Code control entry, the first is time, the secondis power level.

Step 1: Touch COOK CC)13E.Signal light above

Codeflashes.

Step2: Enterthe proper code into Cook Codecontrol. For example, a recipe calling for 12 minutes cooking time at Power Level 10would be 120.120 appearson the display

Step3:TouchSTART.SignallightaboveTIMECOOK showsaswell as time counting down on display.

I’iowwto Defrost

The Defrostsetting is designedfor even thawing necessaryfor large

amountsof food and is one of the

most important advantages of a

microwave oven, making cfefrosting quick and easywith littleattention. PowerLevel3is automatically set for defrosting, but you may

changethisfor moreflexibility.See your Cookbook for the complete defrostingchart.

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

Step 1: Place package of frozen chops in the oven andclose door.

Step2: Touch DEFROST.Display

ically set in oven but does not appear on readout. Signal light aboveDEF.flashes.

SW@3:Touch8,0, and Ofor 8 rninutest 8:00 and signal light above DEF.are displayed. if you wish to

change Power Level,touch Power

Levelpad and then new number.

Step4:TouchSTART.Timecounts down on display. When cycle Is completed, the ovefi signals and automatically shuts off.

Step !Y TurrI package over, close door and repeatSteps2,3 and 4.

Step 6: When oven signals and

shutsoff,removepackageandseparatechops to finish defrosting.

DefrostingTips

@Foodsfrozen in paper or plastic can be defrosted in the package.

@Forevendefrosting, manyfoods

needto be turned ever, rota~ed,or broken up part d the way through

thedefrostingtime.

● Pre-packaged frozen dinners

can be defrosted and microwave cooked.

● Check your Cookbook for other

defrostingtips.

(2.

When I press START,! hear a

dull thumping noise.Whatis it’? A. Thissound is normal.Itis letting

you know the oven is using a

PowerLevellowerthan HIGH.

(2,Can I Defrost small items in a hurry?

A, Yes,but they wIII need more frequent attention than usual. Raise the Power Level after entering the time by touching POWERLEVEL and 7or 10,PowerLevel cuts the

time in %;Power Level 10cuts the time to M. During either, rotate or

stirfood frequently.

(3,CanI open the door during l)EFROSTto check on the progress ofmyfood?

A. Yes.You may open the door at any time during microwaving, To resumedefrosting, close the door andpressSTART

Ct.Why don’t the defrosting times

in the Cookbookseemright for my food?

A. Cookbook times are average.

Defrostingtirm can varyacctwdlng

to the temperatureifi your freezer.

Set your oven for the time in-

dicated in your Cookbook, If your food is still not completely thawed at the end of that time, re-setyour oven and adjust the time accordingly.

Q. When I enter a fourth digit using Cook Code control, nothing happens.Whatwent wrong?

A. The oven will take only 2 or 3 numbers, If more are pressed, oven does not respond. Touch Clear/Off and begin again.

Q.CanI selectaPowerLevelother than automatic power Level 3 for

defrosting? A. Yes,Somesmallerfoods maybe

defrosted quicker on higher Power

Levels but for even,‘carefree defrosting, Power Level 3 is suggested. Check the chart in the Cookbook for specific times and

PowerLevels. “
