SAFETY
• 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
interlock.
• Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door close
properly and that there is no damage to the:
– door (bent)
– hinges and latches (broken or loose)
– door seals and sealing surfaces.
• Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door, or allow soil or cleaner
residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
• The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service
personnel.
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE
TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY ...
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded! If an electrical short circuit occurs, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock
by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding
wire with a grounding plug.
Put the plug into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING
If you use the grounding plug improperly, you risk electric shock.
Ask a qualified electrician or the Sears Service Department if you do not understand the grounding instructions or
if you wonder whether the appliance is properly grounded.
This appliance has a short power supply cord to reduce the risk of anyone’s tripping over or becoming entangled
in the cord. You may use an extension cord if you are careful.
If you use an extension cord, be sure that:
NOTE: This oven draws 13 amperes at 120 Volts, 60 Hz.
• The extension cord has the same electrical rating as
the appliance.
• The marked rating of the extension cord shall be
equal to or greater than the electrical rating of
the appliance.
• The extension cord is a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
• The extension cord does not drape over a
countertop or tabletop, where it can be pulled on
by children or tripped over accidentally.
• The electrical cord is dry and not pinched or
crushed in any way.

USE
Ovenproof Glass
• Glass treated for use in high-intensity heat
includes utility dishes, bread dishes, pie plates, cake
plates, liquid measuring cups, casseroles, and bowls
without metallic trim.
China
• Bowls, cups, serving plates, and platters without
metallic trim can be used in your oven.
Plastic
• When using plastic wrap as a cover, make sure that
the dish is deep enough so the plastic wrap does not
touch the food. As the food heats, it may melt the
plastic wrap wherever the wrap touches the food.
• Place plastic wrap loosely over the top of the dish
and secure it by pressing the wrap to the sides of
the dish.
• Vent by turning back one corner of the plastic wrap.
This will allow excess steam to escape.
• Use plastic dishes, cups, semi-rigid freezer
containers, and plastic bags only for short time
cooking. Use these with care because the
plastic may soften from the heat of the food.
Paper
• Microwave-safe paper towels, waxed paper, paper
napkins, and paper plates with no metallic trim or
design can be used in your oven.
• Refer to the manufacturer’s label for use of any
paper product in the microwave oven.
DO NOT USE
Metal Utensil
• Metal shields food from microwave energy and
produces uneven cooking. Avoid metal skewers,
thermometers, or foil trays.
• Metal utensils can cause arcing, which is a
discharge of electric current. Arcing can damage
your microwave oven.
Metal Decoration
• Do not use metal-trimmed or metal-banded
dinnerware, casserole dishes, etc.
Centura™ Tableware
• The Corning Company recommends that you
do not use Centura tableware and some Corelle™
closed-handle cups for microwave
cooking.
Aluminum Foil
• Do not use large sheets of aluminum foil because
they hinder cooking and may cause arcing.You may
use small pieces of foil to shield poultry legs and
wings.
• Keep all aluminum foil at least 1 inch from the walls
and door of the oven.
Wood
• Wooden bowls, boards, and baskets will dry out and
may split or crack when you use them in the
microwave oven.
Tightly Closed Containers
• Tightly closed cookware can explode. Be sure
to leave an opening for steam to escape from
covered cookware.
Brown Paper
• Do not use brown paper bags. They absorb
heat and could burn.
Metal Twist Ties
• Always remove metal twist ties as they can become
hot and cause a fire.
COOKWARE GUIDE
Most heat-resistant, non-metallic cookware is safe for use in your microwave oven. However, to test cookware
before using, follow these steps:
1. Place the empty cookware in the microwave oven.
2. Measure 1 cup of water in a glass measuring cup and place it in the oven beside the cookware.
3. Microwave on 100% power for 1 minute. If the dish is warm, it should not be used for microwave cooking.
UNDERSTANDING YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
When popping prepackaged popcorn;
Place carefully so the bag does not touch
the oven walls.
Fold each end of the bag in half toward
the center top of thebag.

TIPS FOR MICROWAVE COOKING
BROWNING
Meat and poultry with high fat content that are cooked
for 10 or 15 minutes or longer will brown lightly. Foods
cooked a shorter time can be brushed with a browning
agent, such as Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, or
barbecue sauce.
COVERING
A cover traps heat and steam and causes the food to
cook more quickly. Use a lid or microwave-safe plastic
wrap with one corner folded back to vent the excess
steam. Lids on glass casseroles can become hot
during cooking. Handle carefully. Waxed paper will
prevent the food from splattering in the oven and help
retain heat. When warming bread items, use waxed
paper, napkins, or paper towels. To absorb extra
moisture, wrap sandwiches and fatty foods in paper
towels.
SPACING
Arrange individual foods, such as baked potatoes,
cupcakes, and hors d’oeuvres’ in a circle and at least
1 inch apart. This will help the food cook more evenly.
STIRRING
Stirring blends flavors and redistributes the heat in
foods. Always stir from the outside toward the center
of the dish. Food at the outside of the dish heats first.
TURNING
Large foods, such as roasts and whole poultry, should
be turned so that the top and bottom cook evenly. Also
turn over chicken pieces and chops.
ARRANGEMENT
Do not stack food. Arrange in a single layer in the dish
for more even cooking. Because dense foods cook
more slowly, place thicker portions of meat, poultry, fish,
and vegetables toward the outside of the dish.
TESTING FOR DONENESS
Because foods cook quickly in a microwave oven, you
need to test frequently for doneness.
STANDING TIME IN OVEN
Depending on density, food often needs to stand from
2 to 15 minutes either in or outside of oven after
cooking power shuts off. Outside of oven, you usually
need to cover food during standing time to retain heat.
Remove most foods when they are slightly undercooked
and they will finish cooking during standing time. The
internal temperature of food will rise about 10°F during
standing time.
SHIELDING
To prevent some portions of rectangular or square
dishes from overcooking, you may need to shield
them with small strips of aluminum foil to block the
microwaves. You can also cover poultry legs and
wing tips with foil to keep them from overcooking.
Always keep foil at least 1 inch from oven walls
to prevent arcing.
PIERCING
Pierce the shell, skin, or membrane of foods before
cooking to prevent them from bursting. Foods that
require piercing include yolks and whites of eggs, hot
dogs, clams, oysters, and whole vegetables, such as
potatoes and squash.
CLEANING
Wipe the oven inside and outside with a soft cloth and
a mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe dry.
This should be done weekly or more often, if needed.
Never use cleaning powders or rough pads.
Excessive oil splatters on the inside top will be difficult
to remove if left for many days. Wipe splatters with a
wet paper towel, especially after cooking chicken or
bacon.
REMOVABLE PARTS
The turntable and turntable roller rest are removable.
They should be hand-washed in warm (not hot) water
with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Once they are
clean, rinse well and dry with a soft cloth. Never use
cleaning powders, steel wool, or rough pads.
• The glass turntable may be cleaned at the sink. Be
careful not to chip or scratch the edges as this may
cause the turntable to break during use.
• The turntable roller rest should be cleaned regularly.
SPECIAL CARE
For best performance and safety, the inner door panel
and the oven front frame should be free of food or
grease buildup. Wipe often with a mild detergent; then
rinse and wipe dry. Never use cleaning powders or
rough pads.
After cleaning the control panel, touch STOP/CLEAR
to clear any entries that might have been entered
accidentally while cleaning the panel.
