Radio Frequency

Oven MUST be grounded. Grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current if an electrical short occurs. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. See installation Instructions.

Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the oven is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord. if the product power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install a three-slot receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a separate 60 hertz circuit with the electrical rating as shown in specifications table. When the oven is on a circuit with other equipment, an increase in cooking times may be required and fuses can be blown.

Microwave operates on standard household current, 110- 120V.

Operating Instructions

SENSOR OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS

Sensor Cook allows you to cook most of your favorite foods without

selecting cooking times and power levels. The display will indicate the

sensing period by scrolling the name of the food. The oven automatically

determines required cooking time for each food item. When the internal

sensor detects a certain amount of humidity coming from the food, it

will tell the oven how much longer to cook. The display will show the

remaining heating time. For best results when cooking

by Sensor, follow these recommendations:

1. Food cooked with the sensor system should be at normal storage temperature.

2. Glass turntable and outside of container should be dry to assure

best cooking results.

3. Most foods should always be covered loosely with microwavable

plastic wrap, waxed paper, or a lid.

4. Do not open the door or touch the STOP/CLEAR pad during the sensing time. When sensing time

is over, the oven beeps and the remaining cooking time will appear

in the display window. At this time you can open the door to stir, turn, or rearrange the food.

IMPORTANT:

When using sensor cook, the oven

must cool for 5 minutes between uses or food will not cook properly.

SENSOR COOKING GUIDE

Appropriate containers and coverings help assure good Sensor cooking

results.

covers. They can prevent steam from escaping and cause food to

overcook.

3. Match the amount to the size of the container. Fill containers at least

half full for best results.

4. 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.

NOTE: If food is not thoroughly cooked or

reheated when using the sensor feature, complete using a power level and cooking time. DO NOT continue using the sensor pad.

ADDING OR SUBTRACTING

COOKTIME

By using the More(9) or Less(l) pad

all of the sensor cook and time cook settings can be adjusted to cook food

for a longer or shorter time.

PIZZA SLICE

Reheating pizza with PIZZA SLICE pad lets you reheat one or several slices of pizza without selecting cooking times and power levels.

Example: To reheat 2 slices of

pizza.

DEFROSTTIPS

, When using AUTO DEFROST,the

weight to be entered isthe netweight in

pounds and tenths of pounds (the weight ofthe food minus the container).

, Use AUTO DEFROSTonly for raw

food.AUTO DEFROST gives best results when food to be thawed isa

minimum of 0°F (taken directly from a true freezer). If food has been stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a temperature of 5°F or below, alwaysprogram a lower food weight (for a shorter defrosting time) to prevent cooking the food.

, If the food is stored outside the freezer

for upto 20 minutes, enter a lower food weight.

,,Theshape of the package alters the

defrostingtime. Shallow rectangular packets defrost more quicklythan a deep block.

, Separate pieces as they begin to defrost.

Separated pieces defrost more easily.

, Shield areas of food with small pieces of

foil if they start to become warm.

, Youcan use small pieces of ah-minum

foilto shield foods like chicken wings, leg tips, andfish tails, butthe foilmust not

touch the side of theoven. Foilcauses arcing, which can damage the oven

lining.

Guide for Cooking Seafood in Your Microwave

Cook fish until it flakes easily with a fork.

Place fish on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish. Use a tight cover to steam fish. A lighter cover of wax paper or paper towel provides less steaming.

Do not overcook fish; check itat minimum cooking time.

Arrange steaks on roasting rack with meaty portions towards the outside of rack. Cover with wax paper. Turn over and rearrange when cooking time is half up. Cook until fish flakes easily with a fork. Let

stand 3-5 minutes. Arrange fillets ina baking dish, turning any thin pieces under. Cover

with wax paper. If over 1/2inch thick, turn over and rearrange when cooking time is half up. Cook until fish flakes easily with a fork. Let

Guide for Cooking Eggs in Your Microwave

* Never cook eggs in the shell, and never warm hard-cooked eggs in the shell; they can explode.

Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting. Cook eggs just until set; they become tough ifovercooked.

Guide for Cooking Vegetables in Your Microwave

• Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Often, no extra water is needed. Ifdense vegetables such as potatoes, carrots and green beans are being cooked, add about 1Acup water.

• Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook faster than larger ones.

• Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or corn on the cob, should be arranged in a circle on the turntable

before cooking. They will cook more evenly if turned over after half the cooking time has passed.

• Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem ends pointing towards the edge of the dish and the

tips toward the center.

• When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or vented microwavable plastic wrap.

• Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash, eggplant, etc., should have their skin pricked in several spots

before cooking to prevent them from bursting.

• For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway through the cooking time.

• Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing time. (Standing time refers to the time necessary for dense,

large foods and vegetables to finish cooking after they come out of the oven.) A baked potato can stand on the counter for five minutes, while a dish of peas can be served immediately.

Cooking Utensils

MICROWAVE UTENSIL GUIDE

OVEN PROOF GLASS (treated for high intensity heat):

Utility dishes, loaf dishes, pie plates, cake plates, liquid

measuring cups, casseroles and bowls without metallic trim.

CHINA:

Bowls, cups, serving plates and platters without metallic trim.

PLASTIC:

Plastic wrap (as a cover)-- lay the plastic wrap loosely over the dish

and press it to the sides.

Vent plastic wrap by turning back one

edge slightly to allow excess steam

to escape. The dish should be deep

enough so that the plastic wrap will not touch the food. As the food heats

it may melt the plastic wrap wherever

the wrap touches the food.

Use plastic dishes, cups, semirigid freezer containers and plastic bags

only for short cooking times. Use these with care because the

plastic may soften from the heat of the food.

PAPER:

Paper towels, waxed paper, paper napkins, and paper plates with no

metallic trim or design. Look for the manufacturer's label for use in the

microwave oven.

METAL UTENSILS:

Metal shields the food from microwave energy and produces uneven cooking. Also avoid metal skewers, thermometers or foil trays. Metal

utensils can cause arcing, which can damage your microwave oven.

METAL DECORATION:

Metal-trimmed or metal-banded dinnerware, casserole dishes, etc. The metal trim interferes with normal cooking and may damage the oven.

ALUMINUM FOIL:

Avoid large sheets of aluminum foil because they hinder cooking and may cause harmful arcing. Use small pieces of foil to shield poultry legs and

wings. Keep ALL aluminum foil at least 1 inch from the side walls and door of the oven.

WOOD:

Wooden bowls and boards will dry out and may split or crack when you use them in the microwave oven. Baskets react in the same way.

TIGHTLY COVERED UTENSILS:

Be sure to leave openings for steam to escape from covered utensils. Pierce plastic pouches of vegetables or other food items before cooking.

Tightly closed pouches could explode.

BROWN PAPER:

Avoid using brown paper bags.

They absorb too much heat and could burn.

FLAWED OR CHIPPED UTENSILS:

Any utensil that is cracked, flawed, or chipped may break in the oven.

METAL TWIST TIES:

Remove metal twist ties from plastic or paper bags.

They become hot and could cause a fire.
