• Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table
or counter.
• See door surface cleaning instructions in
the “Caring for Your Microwave Oven”
section.
For microwave ovens with a ventilating
hood:
• Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently –
Grease should not be allowed to
accumulate on hood or filter.
• When flaming foods under the hood,
turn the fan off. The fan, if operating,
may spread the flame.
• Use care when cleaning the vent-hood
filter. Corrosive cleaning agents, such
as lye-based oven cleaners, may
damage the filter.
– SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS –
• To reduce the risk of fire in the oven
cavity:
– Do not overcook food. Carefully attend
the microwave oven if paper, plastic, or
other combustible materials are placed
inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
– Remove wire twist-ties from paper
or plastic bags before placing bag
in oven.
– If materials inside the oven should ignite,
keep oven door closed, turn oven off,
and disconnect the power cord, or
shut off power at the fuse or circuit
breaker panel.
– Do not use the cavity for storage pur-
poses. Do not leave paper products,
cooking utensils, or food in the cavity
when not in use.
– Do not mount over a sink.
– Do not store anything directly on top
of the microwave oven when the micro-
wave oven is in operation.
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID
POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY...
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven
with the door open since open-door
operation can result in harmful
exposure to microwave energy. It is
important not to defeat or tamper with
the safety interlocks.
(b) Do not place any object between the
oven front face and the door or allow
soil or cleaner residue to accumulate
on sealing surfaces.
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is

G
etting 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.
wWARNING
Explosion Hazard
Do not store flammable materials such as gasoline near the
microwave oven.
Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
How your microwave oven works
Microwave ovens are safe. 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 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.
Your microwave oven has the
KITCHENAID* patented Double Emission
System, which releases microwaves from
two locations (one above food and one at
bottom of food). Because the microwaves
enter the oven at two different times, a third
wave of microwaves is created. This gives
you uniform cooking.
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.
Glass turntable
MagnetronOven cavity
Metal floor
continued on next page
7
Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven
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.
Microwaves do heat the CRISPWARE*
Crisper Pan, however. The rubberized
pad on the bottom of the Crisper Pan is
made of a special material which absorbs
microwaves. This heats the pan very
rapidly, browning and crisping the bottom
of the food.
The Crisper Pan reaches 436°F (210°C)
in about 2 minutes (faster than a browning
dish) and stays at that temperature. The
bottom coating of the Crisper Pan is
designed to stop absorbing microwaves at
436°F (210°C), which is the best temperature for frying.

MINUTES
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.
The microwaves disturb water molecules
in the food. As the molecules bounce around
bumping into each other, heat is made, like
rubbing your hands together. This is the
heat that does the cooking.
Although your CRISPWARE microwave
oven cooks this way also, the Double
Emission System allows microwaves to
reach the center of the food more easily.
This results in faster cooking.
NOTE: Do not deep fry in the oven.
Microwavable cookware is not suitable
and it is difficult to maintain appropriate
deep frying temperatures.
8
Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven
For the best cooking results
• Always cook food for the shortest
cooking time recommended. Check to
see how the food is cooking. If needed,
touch the easy minute pad while the
oven is operating or after the cooking
cycle is over (see the “Using EASY
MINUTE” section).
• Stir, turn over, or rearrange the food
being cooked about halfway through the
cooking time for all recipes. This will help
you make sure food is cooked evenly.
NOTE: Some cycles may have to be reset
if you have interrupted the cycle.
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.
• If you do not have a cover for a dish,
• Moving the receiver away from the

circuit so that the microwave oven and
receiver are on different branch circuits.
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.
Make sure it latches. Follow
the directions in the “Cooking
at high cook power” section to
set the oven to cook for 2 minutes. When
the time is up, the water should be heated.
9
Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven
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 and water stays cool, 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 (twist-ties, foil lining, staples, metallic
glaze or trim).
Operating safety precautions
Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside
the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may
cause them to burst and burn you, 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 before 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 and
possibly injure someone.
Never lean on the door or allow a child to
swing on it when the door is open. Injury
could result.
10
Stir before heating
Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven
Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not
heat containers, but heat from the food can
make the container hot.
NOTE: Heat from the broil element will
cause container and oven parts to become
hot. Also, the Crisper Pan always
becomes very hot when used. Use oven
mitts when touching containers, oven parts,
and pan after broiling to prevent burns.
Do not overcook potatoes. Fire could
result. At the end of the recommended
cooking time, potatoes should be slightly
firm because they will continue cooking
during standing time. After microwaving,
wrap potatoes in foil and set aside for
5 minutes. They will finish cooking while
standing.
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 use newspaper or other printed
paper in the oven. Fire could result.
Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs, wood,
paper, gourds, or clothes in the oven.
Fire could result.
11
Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven
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 rotate freely. The turntable can rotate in
either direction.
Make sure the turntable is correct-side up
in the oven. Carefully place the cookware on
your turntable to avoid possibly breaking it.
Make sure support base is all the way
on the shaft in oven cavity floor. Make sure
support rollers are completely inside center
circle of turntable for proper rotation.
Handle your turntable with care when
removing it from the oven to avoid possibly
breaking it. If your turntable cracks or
breaks, contact your appliance dealer for
a replacement.
