IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE!
The California Safe Drinking Water
and Toxic Enforcement Act re- quires the governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects
or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn their
customers of potential exposure to such substances. The fiberglass
insulation in self. cleaning oven will give off a very small amount of
carbon monoxide during the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open
door or window or using a ventila- tion fan or hood.
Be sure everyone in your home
knows what to do in case of fire.
Never use water on a grease fire;
it will only spread the flames.

_ POWER LEVEL
Your new microwave oven offers a wide variety of ways to cook foods,
Your microwave uses very short, high frequency radio waves that move through the food to generate heat. Reheating and defrosting is very
convenient because time and
preparation is so short. DELAYED START COOKING --
allows you to delay the start of cooking by setting the time you prefer the oven
to turn on. See page 9 on using
Delayed Start Cooking, TIMED COOKING--allows you to set
your desired length of cooking,
defrosting, or delayed start times using
the power level you prefer See pages
9-11 for detailed instructions on
using the Timed Cook Setting. AUTO DEFROST -- Auto Defrost
automatically sets the defrosting time and power level needed. Enter the weight of foods in pounds and ounces and the oven
will do the rest.
IK!M,M./sEo.-'}

AUTO SENSOR COOKING --by
using the Auto Sensor and Auto Reheat,
your microwave sensor will detect the
amount of steam escaping from foods and automatically adjust the cooking power level and cooking time This method takes all the guesswork out of cooking. The control automatically shuts the oven off when cooking is complete. See pages 12-15 for
detailed instructions on using the Auto Sensor Setting.

It is normal to have some odor when using your oven for the first time. To
help eliminate this odor, ventilate
the room by opening a window
or using a vent hood.
iMPORTANT: Never cover the oven bottom or oven rack with aluminum
foil. improper use can cause poor heat flow, poor baking results, and
may damage the oven finish.
The oven vent is located under the control panel. This area could
become hot during oven use. The
vent is important for proper air
circulation, Never block this
vent.
In the back of the oven you will notice
a small tuber This is a heat sensor that maintains the temperature of the
oven. Never move or bend this tube.

oven (between 170° and 200°F) is available to keep hot cooked foods warm° However, foods should not be
kept at these temperatures longer than 2 hours.
