DEFROST TiPS

,,When using AUTO DEFROST,

the weight to be entered is the

net weight in pounds and tenths of pounds (the weight of the food minus the container).

,,Use AUTO DEFROST only for raw

food. AUTO DEFROST gives best results when food to be thawed is a

minimum of O°F(taken directly from a true freezer). If food has been stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a temperature of 5°F or below, always program

a lower food weight (for a shorter defrosting time) to prevent cooking

the food.

,, Ifthe food is stored outside the

freezer for up to 20 minutes, enter a lower food weight.

,,The shape of the package alters the

defrosting time. Shallow rectangular

packets defrost more quickly than a

deep block.

,,Separate pieces as they begin to

defrost. Separated pieces defrost more easily.

,,Shield areas of food with small

pieces of foil if they start to become warm.

,,You can use small pieces of alu-

minum foil to shield foods like

chicken wings, leg tips, and fish tails, but the foil must not touch the

side of the oven. Foil causes arcing, which can damage the oven lining.

Guide for Cooking Eggs inYour Microwave

=Never cook eggs in the shell, and never warm hard-cooked eggs in the shell; they can explode.

• Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting. Cook eggs just until set; they become tough if overcooked.

Guide for Cooking Vegetables in Your Microwave

=Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Often, no extra water is needed. If dense vegetables such as

potatoes, carrots and green beans are being cooked, add about _Acup water. Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook faster than larger ones. Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or corn on the cob, should be arranged in a circle on the turntable

before cooking. They will cook more evenly if turned over after half the cooking time has passed. Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem ends pointing towards the edge of the dish and the

tips toward the center. When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or vented microwavable plastic wrap.

Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash, eggplant, etc., should have their skin pricked in several spots before cooking to prevent them from bursting.

For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway through the cooking time.

Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing time (Standing time refers to the time necessary for dense,

large foods and vegetables to finish cooking after they come out of the oven.). A baked potato can stand on the

counter for five minutes, while a dish of peas can be served immediately.

Cooking Utensils

MICROWAVE UTENSIL GUIDE

OVEN PROOF GLASS (treated for high intensity heat):

Utility dishes, loaf dishes, pie plates, cake plates, liquid measuring cups, casseroles and

bowls without metallic trim.

CHINA:

Bowls, cups, serving plates and platters without metallic trim.

PLASTIC:

Plastic wrap (as a cover)-- lay the plastic wrap loosely over the dish and press it to the sides.

Vent plastic wrap by turning back one edge slightly to allow excess

steam to escape. The dish should be deep enough so that the plastic

wrap will not touch the food.

As the food heats it may melt the plastic wrap wherever the wrap

touches the food. Use plastic dishes, cups, semirigid

freezer containers and plastic bags only for short cooking times.

Use these with care because the plastic may soften from the heat

of the food.

PAPER:

Paper towels, waxed paper, paper napkins, and paper plates with no metallic trim or design. Look for the

manufacturer's label for use in the microwave oven.

METAL UTENSILS:

Metal shields the food from microwave energy and produces uneven

cooking. Also avoid metal skewers, thermometers or foil trays. Metal

utensils can cause arcing, which can damage your microwave oven.

METAL DECORATION:

Metal-trimmed or metal-banded dinnerware, casserole dishes, etc. The metal trim interferes with normal cooking and may damage the oven.

ALUMINUM FOIL:

Avoid large sheets of aluminum foil because they hinder cooking and may cause harmful arcing. Use small pieces of foil to shield poultry legs and wings. Keep ALL aluminum foil at least 1 inch from the side walls and door

of the oven.

WOOD:

Wooden bowls and boards will dry out and may split or crack when you use them in the microwave oven. Baskets react in the same way.

TIGHTLY COVERED UTENSILS:

Be sure to leave openings for steam to escape from covered utensils. Pierce plastic pouches of vegetables or other food items before cooking.

Tightly closed pouches could explode.

BROWN PAPER:

Avoid using brown paper bags. They absorb too much heat and could burn.

FLAWED OR CHIPPED UTENSILS:

Any utensil that is cracked, flawed, or chipped may break in the oven.

METAL TWIST TIES:

Remove metal twist ties from plastic or paper bags.

They become hot and could cause a fire.

Care and Cleaning

CARE AND CLEANING

For best performance and safety,

keep the oven clean inside and out-side. Take special care to keep the inner door panel and the oven front frame free of food or grease build-up. Never

use rough powder or pads. Wipe the microwave oven inside and out,

including the hood bottom cover, with a soft cloth and a warm (not hot) mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe dry. Use a chrome cleaner and polish on

chrome, metal and aluminum surfaces. Wipe spatters immediately with awet

paper towel, especially after cooking chicken or bacon. Clean your oven weekly or more often, if needed.

Follow these instructions to clean and care for your oven.

• Keepthe inside of the oven clean.

Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the oven wails, causing the oven to work less efficiently.

• Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives.

• Tohelp loosen baked on food particles or liquids, heat two cups of water (add the juice of one lemon if you desire to keep the oven fresh) in a four-cup measuring glass at High power for five minutes or until boiling. Let stand in the

oven for one or two minutes.

• Remove the glass tray from the oven when cleaning the oven or tray. To prevent the tray from breaking, handle

it carefully and do not put it inwater immediately after cooking. Wash the

tray carefully in warm sudsy water or

in the dishwasher.

• Clean the outside surface of the oven with soap and a damp cloth. Dry with

a soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts of the oven, don't let water seep into the openings.

• Wash the door window with very mild soap and water. Besure to use asoft cloth to avoid scratching.

• Ifsteam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth.

Steam can accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage.

• Never operate the oven without food in it;this can damage the magnetron

tube or glass tray. Youmay wish to

leave a cup of water inthe oven when it is not in use to prevent damage if the

oven is accidentally turned on.
