A DANGER

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these

instructions can result in death,

fire, or electrical shock.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

• For all cord connected appliances:

The microwave oven must be grounded.

In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the

electric current. The microwave 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.

WARNING: Improper use of the

grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.

Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt

exists as to whether the microwave oven

is properly grounded.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the microwave oven.

• For a permanently connected appliance:

The microwave oven must be connected to a grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding conductor should be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment grounding terminal or lead on the microwave oven.

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 CAPITALIZE KENMORE 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 microwaves move into the oven where they contact food as it turns on the turntable.

Magnetron

The glass tray of your microwave oven lets

microwaves pass through. Then they bounce off a

metal floor, back through the glass tray, 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.

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.

Testing your microwave oven

To test the oven put about 1 cup of cold water in a glass container in the oven. Close the door and

make sure it latches.

> 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.

Cook at 100% power for 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 wafer beside if. Cook at 100% cook power for one minufe. If the dish gets hot, do not use it. Some dishes (melamine, some ceramic dinnerware, etc.) absorb microwave energy,

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 fhe food can make the container hot.

• Do not use newspaper or other printed paper in the oven.

• Do not dry flowers, fruif, 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 fhe oven. Paraffin wax will nof 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 furntable 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.

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 (twist-ties, foil lining, staples, metallic glaze or trim).

> 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 minufe 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 you or damage the oven.

> Microwaves may not reach the center of a roast.

The heat spreads to the center from fhe oufer, 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 femperatures.

> Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of fhe

recommended cooking time, pofafoes should be slighfly firm because fhey 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 COOKING TIPS

Amount of food

• If you increase or decrease the amount of food

you prepare, the time it takes to cook that food will also change. For example, if you double a recipe, add a little more than half the original cooking time. Check for doneness and, if necessary, add more time in small increments.

Starting temperature of food

• The lower the temperature of the food being put

into the microwave oven, the longer it takes to cook.

Food at room temperature will be re-heated more

quickly than food at refrigerator temperature.

Composition of food

• Food with a lot of fat and sugar will be heated

faster than food containing a lot of water. Fat and sugar will also reach a higher temperature than water in the cooking process.

• The more dense the food, the longer it takes to heat. “Very dense” food like meat takes longer to heat than lighter, more porous food like sponge cakes.

Releasing pressure in foods

• Several foods {for example: baked potatoes, sausages,

egg yolks, and some fruits} are tightly covered by a skin or

membrane. Steam can build up under the membrane

during cooking, causing the food to burst. To relieve the

pressure and to prevent bursting, pierce these foods before cooking with a fork, cocktail pick, or toothpick.

Using standing time

• Always allow food to stand either in or out of the oven

after cooking power stops. Standing time after defrosting and cooking allows the temperature to evenly spread throughout the food, improving the cooking results. For

inside oven standing time, you can program a" 0" power second stage of the cooking cycle. See Two-Stage Cooking.

• The length of the standing time depends on how much

food you are cooking and how dense it is. Sometimes it can be as short as the time it takes you to remove the food from the oven and take it to the serving table.

However, with larger, denser food item, the standing time

may be as long as 10 minutes.

Arranging food

Size and shape

• Smaller pieces of food will cook faster than larger

pieces. Also, same-shaped pieces cook more evenly than different-shaped pieces.

• With foods that have different thicknesses, the thinner parts will cook faster than the thicker parts. Place the thinner parts of chicken wings and legs in the center of the dish.

Stirring, turning foods

• stirring and turning foods spreads heat quickly to the center of the dish and avoids overcooking at the outer edges of the food.

Covering food

Cover food to:

• Reduce splattering

• Shorten cooking times

• Keep food moist

You can use any covering that lets microwaves pass through. See “Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven” for materials that microwaves will pass through. If you are using the Sensor function, be sure to vent.

For best results, place food evenly on the plate. You can do this in several ways:

• If you are cooking several items of the same food,

such as baked potatoes, place them in a ring pattern for

uniform cooking.

• When cooking foods of uneven shapes or thickness,

such as chicken breasts, place the smaller or thinner

area of the food towards the center of the dish where it will

be heated last.

• Layer thin slices of meat on top of each other.

• When you cook or reheat whole fish, score the skin -

this prevents cracking.

• Do not let food or a container touch the top or sides of the

oven. This will prevent possible arcing.

Using aiuminum foli

Metal containers should not be used in a microwave oven. There are, however, some exceptions. If you have purchased food which is prepackaged in an aluminum foil container, refer to the instructions on the package. When using aluminum foil containers, cooking times may be longer because microwaves will only penetrate the exposed top of the food and not the bottom or the sides. If you use aluminum containers without package instructions, follow these guidelines:

MICROWAVE COOKING TIPS (CONT.)

Using aluminum foil (cont.)

• Place the aluminum foil container in a glass bowl

and add some Water so that it covers the bottom of the container, but not more than 1/4 in. (.64 cm) deep. This ensures even heating of the container bottom.

• Always remove the container lid to avoid damage to the oven.

• Use only undamaged containers.

• Do not use containers taller than 3^4 in. (1.9 cm).

• Container must be at least half filled.

• To avoid arcing, there must be a minimum V4 in. (.64 cm) between the aluminum container and the walls of the oven and also between two aluminum containers.

• Always place the container on the turntable.

• Shield parts of food that may cook quickly, such as wing tips and leg ends of poultry, with small pieces of aluminum foil."

• Heating food in aluminum foil containers usually takes up to double the time compared to reheating in plastic, glass, china, or paper containers. The time when food is ready will vary depending upon the type of container you use.

• Let food stand for 2 to 3 minutes after heating so that heat is spread evenly throughout container.

Removing the rack

• When popping commercially packaged popcorn.

Remove the rack and drip pan from the oven;

Do not place the bag of microwave popcorn on the rack or under the rack.

CAUTION ; Popping microwave popcorn with rack

and drip pan can cause fire or damage to your microwave oven.

Cooking you should not do in your microwave oven

• Do not do canning of foods in the oven. Closed

glass jars may explode, resulting in damage to the oven.

• Do not use the microwave oven to sterilize objects (baby bottles, etc.). It is difficult to keep the oven at the high temperature needed for sterilization.

COOKING COMPARISON GUIDE

Cooking with your new oven offers a wide variety of food preparation options: microwave cooking, convection cooking, and combination cooking.

Microwave cooking uses very short, high-frequency radio waves. The movement of the microwaves through the food generates heat and cooks most foods faster than regular methods, while retaining their natural texture and moisture. Microwave cooking heats food directly, not the cookware or the interior of the oven. Reheating is easy and defrosting is particularly convenient because less time is spent in food preparation.

Convection cooking constantly circulates heated air around the food, creafing even browning and sealedin flavor by the constant motion of hot air over the food surfaces.

MICROWAVE CONVECTION COMBINATION

COOKING

METHOD

Microwave energy is distributed evenly throughout the oven for fast, thorough cooking of food.

Combination cooking combines microwave energy with convection to cook with speed and accuracy, while browning and crisping to perfection.

You can use microwave cooking, convection cooking, or combination cooking to cook by time. Simply preset the length of cooking time desired and your oven turns off automatically.

The following guide shows at a glance the difference between microwave, convection, and combination cooking.

Hot air circulates around food to produce browned exteriors and sealed-in

juices.

Microwave energy and convection heat combine to shorten the cooking time of regular ovens, while browning and sealing in

juices.

COOKWARE GUIDE

Microwave Cooking

Most heat-resistant, non-metallic cookware is safe for use in your microwave oven.

However, to test cookware before using, foilow these steps:

1. Piace the empty cookware in the microwave oven.

2. Measure 1 cup ot water in a glass measuring cup and place it in the oven beside the cookware.

3. Microwave on 100% power tor 1 minute. If the dish is warm, it should not be used tor microwave cooking.

Combination Cooking

• Heat-resistant plastic microwave cookware (safe to

Convection Cooking

• Metal Pans are recommended for all types of baked

products, but especially where browning or crusting is important.

• Dark or dull finish metal pans are best for breads and

pies because they absorb heat and produce a

crisper crust.

• Shiny aluminum pans are better for cakes, cookies,

or muffins because these pans reflect heat and help

produce a light, tender crust.

• Glass or glass-ceramic casserole or baking dishes

are best suited for egg and cheese recipes due to the cleanability of glass.

AUTO DEFROST

Three defrost sequences are preset In the oven. The auto defrost feature provides you with the best defrosting method for frozen foods. The Auto Defrost Table 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. Three different defrost settings are provided.

1 MEAT 2 POULTRY 3 FISH 4 BREAD 5 RAPID - only 1 lb.

*You can set Auto Defrost from 0.1 to 6.0 pounds in

each setting.

OPERATING TIPS

• For best results, remove fish, shellfish, meat, and poultry from its original 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.

• Place foods in a shallow container or on a microwave roasting rack to catch drippings.

• For more defrost help, please read “Defrosting Tips” following the Auto Defrost Table.

This table shows you food type selections and the weights you can set for each type. For best

results, loosen or remove covering on food.

Example: To defrost 1.2 lbs of ground beef.

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

DEFROSTING TIPS

> 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

ot 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.

• Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts of food such as chicken wings, leg tips, fish tails, or areas that start to get warm. Make sure the foil does not touch the sides, top, or bottom of the oven. The toil can damage the oven lining.

• 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.

Using Sensor Cooking sensor popcorn

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 Sensing during the initial sensing period. 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 heating time. For best results for cooking by Sensor, follow these recommendations.

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

2. Glass Tray (TURNTABLE) and outside of

container should be dry to assure best cooking results.

3. Foods should always be covered with

microwavable plastic wrap, waxed paper, or a lid.

4. Do not open the door or touch the

STOP/CLEAR key 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.

Popcorn lets you pop popcorn without needing to

program times and power.

SENSOR REHEAT

SENSOR COOK GUIDE

Appropriate containers and coverings help assure good Sensor cooking results.

1. Always use microwavable containers and

cover them with lids or plastic wrap.

2. Never use tight-sealing plastic 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.

Using SENSOR REHEAT lets you reheat common microwave-prepared foods without selecting cooking times and power levels.

Example: To reheat 2 slices of pizza.

TIPS FOR CONVECTION COOKING

This section gives you cooking instructions and

procedures for operating each convection function. Please read these instructions caretully.

Convection cooking circulates hot air through the oven cavity with a fan. The constantly moving air surrounds the food to heat the outer portion quickly, creating even browning and sealed-in flavor by the constant motion of hot air over the food surfaces. Your oven uses convection cooking whenever you

use the Convection Button. DO NOT USE THE

OVEN WITHOUT THE TURNTABLE IN PLACE.

1. Always use the metal rack on the turntable when convection cooking.

2. Do not cover turntable or metal rack with aluminum foil. It interferes with the flow of air that cooks the food.

3. Round pizza pans are excellent cooking utensils for many convection-only items. Choose pans that do not have extended handles.

4. Use convection cooking for items like soufflés, breads, cookies, angel food cakes, pizza, and for some meat and fish cooking.

5. Your oven comes equipped with metal tray which can be used for cooking in convection mode or combination mode.

6. You do not need to use any special techniques to adapt your favorite oven recipes to convection cooking; however, you need to lower oven temperature by 25°F from recommended temperature mentioned in package instructions when cooking packaged food in convection mode.

7. When baking cakes, cookies, breads, rolls, or other baked foods, most recipes call for preheating.

Preheat the empty oven just as you do a regular

oven. You can start heavier dense foods such as

meats, casseroles, and poultry without preheating.

8. Ail heatproof cookware or metal utensils can be

used in convection cooking.

9. As in conventional cooking, the distance of the food from the heat source affects cooking results.

Refer to the charts in this Use and Care Guide.

10. Use metal utensils only for convection cooking. Never use for microwave or combination cooking

since arcing and damage to the oven may occur.

f 1. After preheating, if you do not open the door, the

oven will automatically hold at the preheated temperature for 30 minutes.

PRECAUTIONS

• The oven cavity, door, turntable, roller rest, metal tray, metal rack, and cooking utensils will become very hot. USE THICK OVEN GLOVES when removing the food, cooking ufensils, metal rack, metal tray, and turntable from fhe oven after convection cooking.

• Do not use lightweight plastic containers, plastic wraps, or paper products during any convection cycle.

CONVECTION

During convection cooking, a heating element is used to raise the temperature of the air inside the oven. Convection cooking temperature ranges from 100°F to 450° F. It is best to preheat the oven when convection cooking.

Note: Lower oven temperature by 25°F from package recommended temperature, instructions. The baking time may vary according to the food condition or individuai preference.

Example: To set the convection cooking at

325°F for 45 minutes with preheating.

Example: To set the convection cooking at

375°F for 30 minutes without preheating.

NOTES:

• When the oven reaches the set preheat temperature, five (5) tones will sound and the display will scroll the message “PREFiEAT END”. The oven will automatically hold that temperature for 30 minutes.

• The oven temperature drops very quickly when the door is opened; however, this should not prevent food from being fully cooked during normal cooking time.

• During convection cooking, the exhaust fan in the

vent hood will automatically turn on at the 1-speed

setting to protect the oven

NOTE: If you press the start button, it will operate.

CONVECTION BAKING GUIDELINES

1. Always use the metal rack when convection baking. Place food directly on rack or place in metal tray and then place tray on rack. (See page 15.)

2. Aluminum pans conduct heat quickly. For most convection baking, light, shiny finishes give best results because they prevent overbrowning in the time it takes to cook the center areas. Pans with dull (satin-finish) bottoms are recommended for cake pans and pie pans for best bottom browning.

TIPS FOR COMBINATION

COMBINATION ROAST

COOKING

This section gives you instructions to operate each combination cooking function. Please read these instructions carefully. Sometimes combination microwave-convection cooking is suggested to get the best cooking results since it shortens the cooking time for foods that normally need a long time to cook. This cooking process also leaves meats juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. In combination cooking, the convection heat and microwave energy alternate automatically. Your oven has three preprogrammed settings that make it easy to use combination cooking.

HELPFUL HINTS FOR

COMBINATION COOKING

1. Meats may be roasted directly on the metal rack

or in a shallow roasting pan placed on the rack. When using the metal rack, please check your cooking guide for information on proper use.

2. Less tender cuts of beef can be roasted and tenderized using oven cooking bags.

3. When baking, check for doneness after cooking time is up. If not completely done, let stand in oven for a few minutes to complete cooking.

PRECAUTIONS

1. All cookware used for combination cooking must

be BOTH microwave-safe and oven-safe.

2. During combination baking, some baking cookware may cause arcing when it comes in contact with the oven walls or metal accessory

racks. Arcing is a discharge of electricity that

occurs when microwaves come in contact with

metal.

— If arcing occurs, immediately stop the cooking

cycle and place a heat resistant dish between the pan and the metal rack.

— We recommend you use the metal tray applied

with your oven. It has rubber feet that helps prevent arcing.

— If arcing occurs with other baking cookware, do

not use them for combination cooking.

HEATING / REHEATING GUIDE

To heat or reheat successfully in a microwave oven, it is important to follow several guidelines. Measure the amount of food in order to determine the time needed to reheat. Arrange the food In a circular pattern for best results. Room temperature food will heat faster than refrigerated food. Canned foods should be taken out of the can and placed in a microwave-safe container. The food will heat more evenly if covered with a microwave-safe lid or vented plastic wrap. Remove cover carefully to prevent steam burns. Use the following chart as a guide for reheating cooked food.

to 3 minutes. Steam will

soften the soil. To get rid

Questions and Answers

QUESTIONS ANSWERS

Can 1 operate my microwave oven without the glass tray or move the giass tray over to hold a large dish?

Can 1 use either metal or aluminum pans in my microwave oven?

Sometimes the door of my microwave oven appears wavy. Is this normal?

Why does the dish become hot when 1 microwave food in it? 1 thought that this should not happen.

What does “standing time” mean?

Why does steam come out of the air exhaust vent?

No. If you remove or move the glass tray, you will get

poor cooking results. Dishes used in your oven must fit on the glass tray.

You can not use metal pans. You can use aluminum foil for shielding (use small, flat pieces), small skewers, and shallow foil trays (if tray is not taller than 34 in. [1.9 cm] deep and is filled with food to absorb microwave energy). Never allow metal to touch walls or door.

This appearance is normal and does not affect the operation of your oven.

As the food becomes hot it will conduct the heat to the dish. Be prepared to use hot pads to remove food after cooking.

Standing time means that food should be allowed to stand either in or out of oven after cooking power stops. Standing time allows heat to spread evenly throughout the food, improving cooking results.

Steam is normally produced during cooking. The microwave oven has been designed to vent this steam out the vents.

Can 1 pop popcorn in my microwave oven?

Yes, but only pop pre-packaged microwave popcorn, and only use the Popcorn command pad. Do not pop popcorn in any other form or by any other method."
