• If a fire should start:

- Keep the oven door closed.

- Turn the oven off.

- Disconnect the power cord or shut off the

power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

• To avoid electric shock:

- This appliance must be grounded. Connect it

only to a properly grounded outlet. See the electrical GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS on page 5.

- Do not operate this appliance if it has a

damaged cord or plug, if it is not working

properly or if it has been damaged or dropped.

- Do not immerse the electrical cord or plug

in water.

- Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.

• Take care when The Door is opened.

There is a possibility of being injured.

NOTE: Turn the microwave’s vent fan on whenever you use the oven range cooktop below it.The fan captures smoke, steam, and odors and also prevents the heat from the cooktop from damaging microwave components. If the microwave is cooking, the vent fan turns on automatically if the sensors detect too much heat from the cooktop. This is normal, and is designed

to prevent microwave component damage.

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.

particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) Door (bent), (2) Hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) Door seals and sealing surfaces.

(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired

by anyone except properly qualified service personnel.

- Do not heat any types of baby bottles or baby food. Uneven heating may occur and possibly

cause personal injury.

- Do not heat small-necked containers, such as syrup bottles.

- Do not deep-fat fry in your microwave oven.

- Do not attempt home canning in your microwave oven.

- Do not heat the following items in the

microwave oven: whole eggs in the shell, water with oil or fat, sealed containers, or closed glass jars. These items may explode.

• Do not cover or block any openings in the oven.

• Use your oven only for the operations described in

this manual.

• Do not run the microwave empty,without food in it.

• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

• Preserve the oven floor:

- Do not heat the oven floor excessively.

- Do not allow the gray film on special microwave-

cooking packages to touch the oven floor. Put the package on a microwavable dish.

- Do not cook anything directly on the oven floor or turntable. Use a microwavable dish.

- Keep a browning dish at least 3/16 inch above floor. Carefully read and follow the instructions for the browning dish. If you use a browning dish incorrectly, you could damage the oven floor.

• Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the provided installation instructions.

• This appliance should be serviced only by qualified service personnel. Contact the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.

• As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.

• Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea can be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is not always present.

THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID To reduce the risk of injury to persons;

- Do not overheat the liquid.

- Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.

- Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

- After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the container.

- Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.

• As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when the microwave oven is used by children.

• If material inside of the oven should ignite, the oven

door should be kept closed, the appliance turned off, the power cord disconnected, or the power shut off at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

+ Ventilation Fan)

WARNING -

plug improperly, you risk electric shock.

Ask a qualified electrician if you do not understand the grounding instructions or if you wonder whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Because this appliance fits under the cabinet, it has a short power-supply cord. See the separate Installation Instructions for directions on placing the cord properly. Keep the electrical power cord dry and do not pinch or crush it in any way.

If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a

3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.

If you use the grounding

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

The oven is designed to operate on a Standard 120V/60Hz household outlet. Be sure the circuit is at least 15A or 20A and the microwave oven is the only appliance on the circuit. It is not designed for 50Hz or any circuit other than a 120V/60Hz circuit.

For a permanently connected appliance: This appliance 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 appliance.

Push the Slide-out hood to move the slide-out hood to the Front or Rear. This will allow you to remove the steam and other vapors more effectively from surface cooking.

Your microwave oven is designed to make your cooking experience as enjoyable and productive as possible. To get you up and running quickly, the following is a list of the oven’s basic features:

2.S

ometimes the turntable can become hot to touch. Be

careful touching the turntable during and after cooking.

3. Do not run the oven empty.

SENSOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Used to cook foods without selecting cooking times and power levels. The display will indicate the sensor category during the initial sensing period. The oven automatically determines the 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. The glass tray and the outside of the container should be dry to assure best cooking results.

3. Foods should always be covered loosely with microwavable plastic wrap, waxed paper, or a lid.

4. Do not open the door or touch STOP/CLEAR during the sensing time. When sensing time is over, the oven beeps twice and the remaining cooking time will appea in the display window. At this time you can open the door to stir, turn, or rearrange the food.

5. If the food is not as hot as you would like after using the sensor cook or reheat function, use Cook Time to continue heating. Do not repeat the sensor options in succession on the same food.

SENSOR POPCORN

SENSOR POPCORN lets you pop 2.0,3.0 and 3.5 ounce bags of commercially packaged microwave popcorn. Pop only one package at a time. If you are using a microwave popcorn popper, follow manufacturer’s instructions.

Example: To pop popcorn.

1. Touch POPCORN.

When the cook time is over, four beeps will sound and COOK END will display.

• Recommended amounts: 2.0-3.5 oz.

DO NOT leave microwave oven unattended while popping corn.

When popping commercially packaged popcorn, remove the rack from the oven. Do not place the bag of microwave popcorn on the rack or under the rack.

SENSOR COOKING GUIDE

Appropriate containers and coverings help assure good Sensor cooking results.

1. Always use microwavable containers and cover them with lids or vented 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.
