• Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper

products, cooking utensils or food in the cavity when not in use.

9. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea can be overheated beyond the boiling

point without appearing to be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. 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 A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

English

10. Do not deep fry food in the microwave. It is difficult to control the fat which could

cause a fire hazard.

11. Pierce foods with heavy skins such as potatoes, whole squash, apples and

chestnuts before cooking.

12. The contents of feeding bottles and baby jars should be stirred or shaken and the

temperature should be checked before serving in order to avoid burns.

13. Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated

food. Potholders may be needed to handle the utensil.

UTENSILS

This section lists which utensils can be used in the microwave, which ones have limited use for short periods, and which ones should not be used in the microwave.

Recommended

• Microwave browning dish – Use to brown the exterior of small items such as steaks, chops, or pancakes. Follow the directions provided with your browning dish.

• Microwaveable plastic wrap – Use to retain steam. Leave a small opening for some steam to escape and avoid placing it directly on the food.

• Paper towels and napkins – Use for short-term heating and covering; These absorb excess moisture and prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal and could ignite.

• Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes – Use for heating or cooking.

• Paper plates and cups – Use for short-term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled paper, which may contain metal and could ignite.

• Wax paper – Use as a cover to prevent spattering.

• Thermometers – Use only those labeled “Microwave Safe” and follow all directions. Check the food in several places. Conventional thermometers may be used on microwave food once the food has been removed from the oven.

Limited Use

• Aluminum foil – Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too much foil can damage your oven, so be careful.

• Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware – Use these if they are labeled “Microwave Safe.” If they are not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used safely.

• Plastic – Use only if labeled “Microwave Safe.” Other plastics can melt.

• Straw, wicker, and wood – Use only for short-term heating, such as warming dinner rolls for a few seconds; baskets and bowls may be flammable.

Not Recommended

• Glass jars and bottles – Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave. It can shatter and cause damage and injury.

• Paper bags – These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use.

• Styrofoam plates and cups – These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food.

• Plastic storage and food containers – Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in the microwave.

• Metal utensils – These can damage your oven. Remove all metal before cooking.

Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the

empty dish in the oven and microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be used.

English

COOKING TECHNIQUES

Your microwave makes cooking easier than conventional cooking, provided you keep these considerations in mind:

Stirring Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and heats more quickly, so stir from the outside to the center. The oven will turn off when you open the door to stir your food.

Arrangement Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable where they receive more microwave energy. To prevent overcooking, place delicate areas, such as asparagus tips, toward the center of the turntable.

Shielding Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Areas that need shielding include poultry wing-tips, the ends of poultry legs, and corners of square baking dishes. Use only small amounts of aluminum foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven.

Turning Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to microwave energy. This is especially important with large foods such as roasts.

Standing Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal heat and continue to cook for a few minutes after heating stops. Let foods stand to complete cooking, especially foods such as cakes and whole vegetables. Roasts need this time to complete cooking in the center without overcooking the outer areas. All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate, should be shaken or stirred when cooking is complete. Let liquids stand a moment before serving. When heating baby food, stir well at removal and test the temperature before serving.

Adding moisture Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content should be covered or allowed to stand so that the heat disperses evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help it cook.

4. Variable Power Level

Variable power levels add ﬂexibility to microwave cooking. Each power level

gives you microwave energy a certain percent of the time, for example, Power Level 3 is microwave energy 30% of the time. 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 transfer heat to the inside of the food. An example of this is with the defrost cycle (Power Level 3). If the microwave energy did not cycle off, the outside of the food would cook before the inside was defrosted.

10. Sensor Cook

Note

Sensor Cooking is a technology designed to detect the increasing humidity

released by food during the cooking process. As food cooks in a microwave oven, steam is produced. Once steam is detected by the sensor, the microwave will automatically calculate and adjust the remaining cooking time for the type and amount of food. Sensor Cooking simpliﬁ es microwave programming with excellent cooking results.

Sensor Cook Dial Start/+30sec/Select

English

1. Press the Sensor Cook button.

2. Turn the dial to select the desired food type.

3. Press the Start/+30sec/ Select button to start cooking.

For best results, do not use one of the sensor cook food categories

twice in succession on the same food portion -- this may result in severely overcooked or burnt food. If there is a need to continue cooking, it is suggested to use the manual controls, instead of Pre-set Sensor Cooking

• The oven door should not be opened while the sensor cook is on. Opening the door may cause inaccurate cooking results. Once the two beep signal is heard, the remaining cooking time immediately appears in the screen and begins to count-down. At this time, the oven door may be opened to stir, turn, or add food.

• Cover foods loosely, but completely, with plastic wrap or place foods in a casserole dish with a proper ﬁ tting lid.

• Foods less than 4oz. (110g) should be cooked by power and time, not by sensor cook.

• All foods for sensor cooking should be at their normal storage temperature.

• Before using sensor cooking, make sure the inside cavity of the oven is dry.

• The oven will not cook food properly when the oven is still hot.Allow time for the oven to cool down before proceeding to cook.

• Cover food with lid, or with vented plastic wrap. Never use tightly sealed plastic containers, as they may prevent steam from escaping and this will cause food to overcook.

After cooking/reheating: All food should have a speciﬁ c Sensor Cooking

setting. See the “sensor cook chart” on the next page for speciﬁ c food cooking instructions.

12. Convection

Convection Cooking is a technology used to cook foods more efﬁciently.

Convection cooking uses a special heating element and fan to raise the temperature of the air inside the microwave oven, circulating the uniform heated air throughout the oven. The air moves over and around the food, producing golden brown exteriors with rich, moist interiors. Most foods will cook faster and better with Convection Cooking than conventional cooking methods.
