wooden utensils, grease buildup,

could catch fire. Plastic utensils could melt and canned foods could

explode. Your appliance should never be used as a storage area_

• ALWAYS KEEP your appliance clear of things that will burn (gaso-

line and other flammable vapors or liquids).

o NEVER HEAT unopened food

containers. Pressure buildup can cause the container to burst and

cause injury.

o NEVER LEAVE jars or cans of fat

or drippings in your oven.

o NEVER TRY to clean a hot sur-

face° Some cleaners produce nox- ious fumes and wet cloths or

sponges could cause steam burns.

° BE SURE the oven is securely in-

stalled in a cabinet that is firmly at- tached to the house structure.

o DO NOT touch heating elements,

surfaces near them, or interior oven surfaces. These may be hot enough

to cause burns even though they are dark in color. During and after

use, do not touch or let clothing or flammable materia! contact the ele-

ments or hot surfaces until they have had time to cool Other sur-

faces near the oven vent openings, oven door and window surfaces

may also be hot enough to cause burns

IMPORTANTSAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• PLACE OVEN RACKS in the de- sired position while the oven is cool.

If racks must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact

the hot oven element.

,, AFTER BROILING, always take

the broiler pan and grid out of the oven and clean them Leftover

grease in the broiler pan could catch fire the next time you use your

oven.

• ALWAYS USE care when opening the oven door, Let hot air and steam

escape before moving foods.

the oven bottom. Improper use of foil could start a fire or result in risk

of electric shock.

o NEVER BLOCK the oven vent

opening

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE!

The California Safe Drinking

Water and Toxic Enforcement

Act requires the governor of California to publish a list of

substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other

reproductive harm and re- quires 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 mini-

mized by venting with an open

door or window or using a ven-

tilation fan or hood,

READ AND UNDERSTAHD

THIS |NFORMATIIOH

NOW!

Be sure everyone in your home

defrosted before inserting probe, Probe may break off if it is used in frozen foods

• Cover foods loosely for moisture control and quick even heating

o Delicate butter icings, ice cream,

frozen toppings, etc., soften rapidly at warm temperatures, Batters, doughs, and frozen foods are also

difficult to cook with the probe. It is best to TIMED COOK these foods.

OPERATION

MicrowaveAutoCooking

Use AUTO COOK to eliminate your need to look up cooking time in your

cookbook or guess how long to set cooking time. By sensing the steam

that escapes as food microwaves, the

control adjusts the oven's cooking time to various types and amounts of food,

This feature is best used with foods that you want to steam or retain mois-

ture.

NOTE: Use of the metal shelf with Au-

tomatic Cooking is not recommended.

FOODS NOT RECOMMENDED for Auto Cooking--F0ods that

must be cooked uncovered, foods re- quiring constant attention, foods re-

quiring additional ingredients during cooking, foods calling for a dry or

crisp appearance, foods cooked us- ing the probe should not be Auto

Cooked.

Automatic Cooking Codes 1-9 are de- signed to give you easy automatic re-

sults with a number of foods. CODE 1--Used for reheating foods

quickly and turns off the oven auto- matically as soon as the sensor de-

tects steam from foods.

CODE 2-9--When used, the oven

will determine how much additional cooking time is needed after steam

has been detected .The oven will auto- matically switch to TIME COOK,

When the oven signals, foods are ready to be stirred, turned or rotated.

A guide behind the oven door lists cooking codes for frequently pre-

pared fresh or uncooked foods

AUTO ROAST uses the temperature probe to cook to the desired serving temperature Auto Roast uses up to 3 power settings which automatically switch during roasting, providing ten- der, even cooking results without overcooking

Just as in conventional roasting, only tender cuts of meats should be Auto

Roasted until specified internal tem- peratures are reached, Less tender

cuts of meat should be microwaved by time, according to your recipe.

1, Press AUTO ROAST, "AUTO"

and "TEMP" appear on display and "ENTER CODE" flashes.

2. Press number pad to set Auto Roast Codex See Auto Roast

Guide.

3. Press START_ Display shows "COOL" and "CODE" until Food

temperature reaches 80°F. At 80°F, display switches to show meat's in-

ternal temperature

4. When you select Auto Roast Codes

1,2, 3, or 4, the oven signals with 4

beeps and "TURN" flashes on the display when it's time to turn the

roast over After you turn the roast, close the door and press START again. (NOTE: Oven centin.

ues to cook after the signal whether or not roast is

turned over.)

After a pre-programmed food tem- perature is reached, oven signals with 4 beeps and "END" appears on dis- play.

cycles. When the oven signals and countdown time is in the display the door may be opened for stirring,

turning or rotating foods_

o Match the amount of food to the size

of container, Fill the containers at least t/2 full.

o Most foods should be covered with

a lid or wax paper to prevent spat- tering and to keep the oven clean.

o Be sure outside of container and in-

side of oven are dry

o If food needs additional cooking, re-

turn to oven and use Auto Cook

vidual tastes.

o Use of Automatic Cooking feature

with the Double Dub:/®_hetf is not recommended,

You can set the oven to cook for 20% less time than the code would regu-

larly provide by adding a 1 after any

Auto Cook code. You can set the

oven signals, then rotate dish 1/2 turn

if needed. Close the door and press

START to finish cooking

o Never use tight-seating plastic cov-

ers-they can prevent steam from escaping and cause food to over- cook or container to burst.

Be sure the outside of the cooking container and the inside of the mi-

crowave oven are dry before plac- ing food in the oven Beads of mois-

ture turning into steam can mislead the sensor,

o Stir or rotate some foods after a

_ MPORTANT SAFETY

COOK with shelf on floor of oven. Product damage may

result. Use potholders when han-

dling metal shelf and uten. sils, THEY MAY BE HOT.

DO NOT store microwave

browning dish on metal shelf,

Use of shelf with Automatic Cooking is not recom.

The wire shelf is designed for added

capacity when heating and reheating in your microwave oven, More than

one food may be heated or reheated and ready to serve at the same time

When microwaving with the oven

shelf, it is important to arrange foods properly. Cookware size is important Be sure dishes will fit together on or

under the shelf. Food size should be considered; foods over 4 inches high

or 3 1/2 lbs, are not recommended

for shelf cooking.

Batters and dough foods and also un-

cooked foods which need to be pre-

I_ared from scratch should be cooked

without the oven shelf following recipe

directions.

Use potholders when handling foods heated together with your oven shelf, especially when heating larger amounts of food, Extra steam gener-

ated from multiple food cooking may make cookware hotter than with regu- lar microwaving

INFORMATION DO NOT STORE OR

To position the microwave oven shelf, tip the back slightly and fit the shelf support guides onto the support guides located on each side of the

oven in the rear. Next, lower the front until the shelf

support guides fit onto the support guides located at each side of the

oven in the front

When properly positioned, the shelf should fit snugly in place, be level

and not touch the back wall of the

oven,

If arcing occurs when using the shelf, turn the oven off Make sure the shelf

is positioned right side up on all four shelf supports and not touching oven

walls,

Tips for Reheating Different Types of Food

When heating different types of food

together, foods which should be

served hot must be placed on the oven floor, while foods which are only warmed should be placed on the shelf. Microwave energy enters the oven from the bottom only It is impor-

tant to remember that foods absorb microwave energy at different rates.

You may need to start heating large or dense food a few minutes ahead of

smaller or less dense foods. Stagger and rotate foods as described above
