Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven

This section discusses the concepts behind microwave cooking. It also shows you the basics you need to know to operate your microwave oven. Please read this information before you use your oven.

HOW YOUR KENMORE ULTRA WAVE™ MICROWAVE HOOD COMBINATION WORKS

Microwave energy is not hot. It causes food to make its own heat, and it’s this heat that cooks the food. Microwaves are like TV waves, radio waves, or

light waves. You cannot see them, but you can see what they do. A magnetron in the microwave oven produces

microwaves. The miaowaves move into the oven where they contact food as it turns on the turntable.

Magneton

The glass turntable of your microwave oven lets

microwaves pass through. Then they bounce off a

metal floor, back through the glass turntable, and are absorbed by the food.

Microwaves pass through most glass, paper, and

plastics without heating them so food absorbs the energy. Microwaves bounce off metal containers so food does not absorb the energy.

ULTRA WAVE™ Inverter Microwave System

ULTRA WAVE™ Inverter Microwave System gives you better microwave cooking performance for defrosting, cooking and reheating foods quickly and uniformly. The ULTRA WAVE™ Inverter Microwave System

is proven technology that delivers a constant stream of microwave power - true high, medium, and low power.

Conventional microwave ovens operate on HIGH power only. To achieve a 70% power level in a conventional microwave oven, the oven operates 70% of the time at HIGH power and 30% of the time OFF.

iP*;:: 0%

The ULTRA WAVE™ Inverta" Microwave System delivers pow^ continuously, to defrost more evenly and minimize overcooking of food and messy food spattefs.

í:0éÉio%;:fc;

Sensor Cooking

The ULTRA WAVE™ Inverter Microwave System fea tures Sensor Cooking functions. A humidity sensor in the oven cavity detects moisture and humidity emitted from food as it heats. The sensor adjusts cooking times to various types and amounts of food. Sensor cooking takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.

For the best cooking results

• Always cook food for the shortest cooking time

recommended. Check to see how the food is cooking.

• Stir, turn over, or rearrange the food being cooked about halfway through the cooking time for all recipes. This will help make sure the food is evenly cooked.

• If you do not have a cover for a dish, use wax paper, or microwave-approved paper towels or plastic wrap. Remember to turn back a corner of the plastic wrap to vent steam during cooking.

Radio interference

Using your microwave oven may cause interference

to your radio, TV, or similar equipment. When there is

interference, you can reduce it or remove it by;

• Cleaning the door and sealing surfaces of the oven.

• Adjusting the receiving antenna of the radio or

television.

• Moving the receiver away from the microwave oven. * Plugging the microwave oven Into a different outlet

so that the microwave oven and receiver are on different branch circuits.

Testing your microwave oven

T0 test the oven put about 1 oip of cold water In a glass container in the oven. Close the door.

Make sure it latches. Cod< at 100% power fcr 1 minute. When the time is up, the water should be heated.

Testing your dinnerware or cookware

Test dinnerware or cookware before using. To

test a dish for safe use, put it into the oven with a cup of water beside it. Cook at 100% cook power for one minute. If the dish gets hot, do not use it. Some dishes (melamine, some ceramic dinnerware, etc.) absorb microwave energy.

becoming too hot to handle and slowing cooking times. Cooking in metal containers not designed for microwave use could damage the oven, as could containers with hidden metal (twisi4ies, foil lining, staples, metallic glaze or trim).

Operating safety precautions

‘ Never lean on the door or allow a child to swing

on it when the door is open.

‘ Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not heat

containers, but the heat from the food can make the container hot.

‘ Do not use newspaper or other printed paper in

the oven.

• Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, paper, gourds, or clothes in the oven.

• Do not start a microwave oven when it is empty.

Product life may be shortened. If you practice

programming the oven, put a container of water in the oven. It is normal for the oven door to look wavy after the oven has been running for a while.

• Do not try to melt paraffin wax in the oven. Paraffin wax will not melt in a microwave oven because it allows microwaves to pass through it.

• Do not operate the microwave oven unless the

glass turntable is securely in place and can move freely. The turntable can move in either direction.

Make sure the turntable is correct-side up in the

oven. Handle your turntable with care when

removing it from the oven to avoid possibly breaking it. If your turntable cracks or breaks,

contact your dealer for a replacement.

•When you use a browning dish, the browning

dish bottom must be at least 3/16 inch above the turntable. Follow the directions supplied with the

browning dish.

• Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside the

shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause

them to burst, and possibly damage the oven. Slice hard-boiled eggs before heating. In rare cases, poached eggs have been known to explode. Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time of one minute before cutting into them.

• For best results, stir any liquid several times during heating or reheating. Liquids heated in

certain containers (especially containers shaped like cylinders) may become overheated. The liquid may splash out with a loud noise during or after heating or when adding ingredients (coffee granules, tea bags, etc.). This can harm the oven.

' Microwaves may not reach the center of a roast.

The heat spreads to the center from the outer, cooked areas just as in regular oven cooking. This is one of the reasons for letting some foods (for example, roasts or baked potatoes) stand for a while after cooking, or for stirring some foods during the cooking time.

> Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable

utensils are not suitable and it is difficult to maintain appropriate deep-frying temperatures.

> Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the

recommended cooking time, potatoes should be slightly firm because they will continue cooking during standing time. After microwaving, let potatoes stand for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.

Electrical connection

If your electric power line or outlet voltage is

less than 110 volts, cooking times may be longer.

Have a qualified electrician check your electrical system.

MICROWAVE POWER LEVELS

For best results, some recipes cal! for different cook powers. The lower the cook power, the slower the cooking. Each number from 1 to 9 stands for a different percentage of full cook power.

The following table gives the percentage of cook power

each number pad stands for, and the cook power name usually used.

AUTO DEFROST

Four defrost sequences are preset in the oven. The auto defrost feature provides you with the best defrosting method for frozen foods. The cooking guide will show you which defrost sequence is recommended for the food you are defrosting. For added convenience, the Auto Defrost includes a built-in beep mechanism that reminds you to check, turn over, separate, or rearrange to get best defrost results.

Operating Tips

■ For best results, remove fish, sheilfish, meat, and poultry from its originai closed paper or plastic package (wrapper). Otherwise, the wrap will hold

steam and juice close to the foods, which can cause the outer surface of the foods to cook.

■ For best results, shape your ground meat into the

form of a doughnut before freezing. When defrosting, scrape off thawed meat when the beep sounds and continue defrosting.

■ Piace foods in a shallow container or on a microwave roasting rack to catch drippings.

Weight conversion table

You are probably used to food weights as being in

pounds and ounces that are fractions of a pound {for example, 4 ounces equals 1/4 pound). However, in order to enter food weight in Auto Defrost, you must specify pounds and tenths of a pound.

If the weight on the food package is in fractions of a

pound, you can use the following table to convert the weight to decimals.

DEFROSTING TIPS

HOLD WARM

• When using Auto Defrost, the weight to be entered

is the net weight in pounds and tenths of pounds (the weight of the food minus the container).

• Before starting, make sure you have removed any of the metal twist-ties which often come with frozen

food bags, and replace them with strings or elastic

bands.

• Open containers such as cartons before they are placed in the oven.

• Always slit or pierce plastic pouches or packaging.

• If food is foil wrapped, remove foil and place it in a

suitable container.

• Slit the skins, if any, of frozen food such as sausage.

• Bend plastic pouches of food to ensure even defrosting.

• Always underestimate defrosting time. If defrosted

food is still icy in the center, return it to the

microwave oven for more defrosting.

• The length of defrosting time varies according to

how solidly the food is frozen.

• The shape of the package affects how quickly food will defrost. Shallow packages will defrost more quickly than a deep block.

• As food begins to defrost, separate the pieces. Separated pieces defrost more easily.

• For better results, let food stand after defrosting.

(For more information on standing time, see the

“Microwave Cooking Tips” section.)

• Turn over food during defrosting or standing time.

Break apart and remove food as required.

You can safely keep hot, cooked food warm in your microwave oven for up to 99 minutes, 99 seconds (about 1 hour, 40 minutes). You can use Hold Warm by itself, or to automatically follow a cooking cycie.

Example for hold warm:

Touch:

Hold"

, unt n noom

At the end of the hold warm, “END" will be displayed and four tones will sound.

To make Hold Warm automatically follow another cycle:

• While you are touching in cooking instructions, touch HOLD WARM before touching START.

• When the last cooking cycle is over, you will hear

two tones. "Hold Warm” will come on while the oven continues to run.

• You can set Hold Warm to follow Auto Defrost, Cook, or multi-cycle cooking.

NOTES:

• Hold Warm operates for up to 99 minutes, 99

seconds.

• Opening the oven door cancels Hold Warm. Close the door and touch Hold Warm, then touch START if additional Hold Warm time is desired.

• Food cooked covered should be covered during

Hold Warm.

• Pastry items (pies, turnovers, etc.) should be

uncovered during Hold Warm.

• Complete meals kept warm on a dinner piate should be covered during Hold Warm.

• Do not use more than one complete Hold Warm cycle (about 1 hour, 40 minutes). The quality of some foods will suffer with extended time.

SURE SIMMER

Your microwave oven lets you simmer soups, casseroles, stews, and other liquid foods. Ali you do

is set a simmer time and your oven will bring your food to a boil and then simmer it for the time you specify.

NOTES:

• You cannot change the cook power or doneness for Sure Simmer.

• This function uses the sensor. The sensor needs 2 minutes 30 seconds to warm up after the oven

is connected to power or after a power failure. If you start Sure Simmer during the warm up, microwave energy will not be turned on until the

sensor is warm.

• When cooking vegetables, increase amount of water to 1/4 to 1/2 cup (60 to 125mi).

• Cover dish with a hard lid, i.e., the lid that comes with the dish or a dinner plate. Do not use plastic wrap.

Touch:

Piace the food in the oven and

ciose the door.

Display Shows:

When simmering foods like pasta use a container that can hold enough water to cover the food completely when cooking, such as a 3-quart (12 cup) casserole with a lid. When cooking pasta or noodles, add 1 tbsp (15m!) oil to the water before boiling.

Use the foilowing method:

Place container with water in the oven and follow steps 2~4, setting the simmer time at 1 second. At the end of the signal, place the food in the water and stir until completely covered by water. Cover. Repeat steps 2~4, setting the simmer time you want.

Changing instructions you can change the simmering time while simmering by repeating steps 2, 3, and 4.

Using Sensor Cooking

SENSOR COOKING

SENSOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Sensor Cook allows you to cook most of your favorite foods without selecting cooking times and power

levels. 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

heat. The display will show the remaining heat time.

For best results by Sensor, following these

recommendations.

• Food cooked with the sensor system should be at

normal storage temperature.

• Glass Tray and outside of container should be dry

to assure best cooking results.

• Foods should always be covered loosely with

microwavable piastic wrap, waxed paper or a lid.

• Do not open the door or touch the “STOP/CLEAR”

key during the sensing time. When sensing time is over, the oven beeps twice 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.

SENSOR COOKING GUIDE

Appropriate containers and coverings help assure good Sensor cooking results.

• Always use microwavable 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.

• Match the amount to the size of the container.

Fill containers at least half full for best results.

• 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.

POTATO (EXAMPLE)

Sensor cook allows you to cook most of your favorite foods without selecting cooking times and power levels.

Example for Potato:

Touch:
