pletely understood,or ifdoubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. If it

isnecessary to use an extension cord, use only a three wire extension cord that has a three prong polarizedgrounding plug, and a three slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating ofthe extension cord should be equal to or greater than the electrical ratingof the appliance.

Grounding Instructions

THiS APPLIANCE MUST BE GROUNDED, Inthe event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the riskof electric shock by providing an escape wire for theelectric current. Thisappliance is equipped with acord havinga grounding wire with agrounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outletthat is properly installedand grounded.

• Plug into properly installed and grounded 3 prong outlet.

• DO NOT remove ground prong.

• DO NOT use an adapter.

2. Longercord sets or extension cords are available and may be used ifcare isexercised in their use. Do not let cord hang over edge of a table or counter.

3. Ifa long cord or extension cord is used, (1)the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, (2)

the extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and (3)the longer cord should be arranged so that itwill not drape over the counter top or table-

top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

Wiring Requirements

The oven must be operated on a SEPARATECIRCUIT.No other appliance should share the circuitwith the microwave oven. Ifitdoes, the branch circuit fuse may blow or the cir- cuit breaker may trip. The oven mustbe plugged into at least a 20AMP, 120 VOLT,60 Hz GROUNDED OUTLET.Where a standardtwo-prong outlet is encountered, it isthe personal responsibilityand obligation of the consumer to have it replacedwith a properly grounded three-prong outlet.The VOLTAGE used must be the same as specified on this

microwave oven (120 V, 60Hz). Using a highervoltage is dangerous and may result in a

fire oroven damage. Using a lower voltage will cause slow cooking. Panasonic is NOT

responsiblefor any damages resultingfrom the use of the oven withany voltage other

than specified.

TV / Radio Interference

i,,z-qr

Follow These Safety Precautions When Cooking in Your Oven.

iMPORTANT Proper cooking depends upon the power, the time setting and quantity of

food. if you use a smaller portion than recommended but cook at the time for the recommended portion, fire could result.

1) HOME CANNING / STERILIZING / DRYING FOODS /

SMALL QUANTITIES OF FOODS

• DO NOT use your oven for home canning. Your oven cannot maintain the food

at the proper canning temperature. The food may be contaminated and then spoil.

• DO NOT use the microwave oven to sterilize objects (baby bottles, etc.). It is

difficult to keep the oven at the high temperature needed for sterilization.

• DO NOT dry meats, herbs, fruits or vegetables in your oven. Small quantities

of food or foods with low moisture content can dry out, scorch or catch on fire if overheated.

2) POPCORN

Popcorn may be popped in a microwave oven corn popper. Microwave pop- corn which pops in its own package is also available. Follow popcorn manu- facturers' directions and use a brand suitable for the cooking power of your

microwave oven. CAUTION: When using pre-packaged microwave popcorn, you can follow recommended package instructionsor use the popcorn pad (refer to page 13).

Otherwise, the popcorn may not pop adequately or may ignite and cause a fire. Never leave oven unattended when popping popcorn. Allow the popcorn

bag to cool before opening, always open the bag facing away from your face and body to prevent steam burns.

3) DEEP FAT FRYING

• DO NOT deep fat fry in your microwave oven. Cooking oils may burst into flames

and may cause damage to the oven and perhaps result in burns. Microwave utensils may not withstand the temperature of the hot oil, and can shatter or melt.

4) FOODS WITH NONPOROUS SKINS

• DO NOT COOK/REHEAT WHOLE EGGS, WiTH OR WITHOUT THE SHELL.

Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to explode, and possibly damage the oven or cause injury. Reheating SLICED hard-boiled eggs and cooking SCRAMBLED eggs is safe.

• Potatoes, apples, whole squash and sausages are examples of foods with non-

porous skins. These types of foods must be pierced before microwave cooking to prevent them from exploding. CAUTION: Cooking dry or old potatoes can cause fire.

5) GLASS TRAY / COOKING CONTAINERS / FOIL

• Cooking containers get hot during microwaving. Heat is transferred from the

HOT food to the container and the Glass Tray. Use pot holders when removing containers from the oven or when removing lids or plastic wrap covers from cooking containers, to avoid burns.

• The Glass Tray will get hot during cooking, it should be allowed to cool before

handling or before paper products, such as paper plates or microwave popcorn bags, are placed in the oven for microwave cooking.

• When using foil in the oven, allow at least 1-inch (2.5 cm) of space between

foil and interior oven wails or door.

• Dishes with metallic trim should not be used, as arcing may occur.

6) PAPER TOWELS / CLOTHS

• DO NOT use paper towels or cloths which contain a synthetic fiber woven into

them. The synthetic fiber may cause the towel to ignite. Use paper toweling under supervision.

7) BROWNING DISHES / OVEN COOKING BAGS

• Browning dishes or grills are designed for microwave cooking only. Always fol-

low instructions provided by the manufacturer. DO NOT preheat browning dish more than 6 minutes.

• If an oven cooking bag is used for microwave cooking, prepare according to

package directions. DO NOT use a wire twist-tie to close bag, instead use plastic ties, cotton string or a strip cut from the open end of the bag.

8) THERMOMETERS

• DO NOT use a conventional meat thermometer in your oven. Arcing may

occur. Microwave safe thermometers are available for both meat and candy.

9) BABY FORMULA/BABY FOOD

• DO NOT heat baby formula or baby food in the microwave oven. The glass jar

or surface of the food may appear warm while the interior can be so hot as to burn the infant's mouth and esophagus.

10) REHEATING PASTRY PRODUCTS

• When reheating pastry products, check temperatures of any fillings before eat-

ing. Some foods have fillings which heat faster and can be e×tremely hot, while the surface remains warm to the touch (e×. Jelly Donuts).

11) GENERAL OVEN USAGE GUIDELINES

• DO NOT use the oven for any purpose other than the preparation of food.

Place food on microwave safe dish.

Press Inverter Turbo Defrost.

2. * Enter weight of the [_[_ food using the num-

ber pads. Press Start.

Defrosting will start.

The time will count down. Larger weight

foods will cause a sig- nal midway through

defrosting. If 2 beeps sound, turn over,

rearrange foods or shield with aluminum

foil.

Conversion Chart: Follow the chart to convert ounces or

hundredths of a pound into tenths of a pound. To use Inverter Turbo Defrost,

enter the weight of the food in Ibs. (1.0) and tenths of a lb. (0.1). If a piece of

meat weighs 1.95 Ibs. or 1 lb. 14 oz., enter 1.9 Ibs.

Defrosting Tips & Techniques

Preparation For Freezin_

1. Freeze meats, poultry, and fish in packages with only 1or 2 layers of food. Place wax paper between layers.

2. Package in heavy-duty plastic wraps, bags (labeled "For Freezer"), or freezer paper.

3. Remove as much air as possible.

4. Seal securely, date, and label.

To Defrost:

1. Remove wrapper. This helps moisture to evaporate. Juices from food can get hot and cook the food.

2. Set food in microwave safe dish.

3. Place roasts fat-side down. Place whole poultry breast-side down.

4. Select power and minimum time so that items will be under-defrosted.

5. Drain liquids during defrosting.

6. Turn over (invert) items during defrosting.

7. Shield edges and ends if needed. (See Cooking Techniques).

After Defrosting.;."

1. Large items may be icy in the center. Defrosting will complete during STANDING TIME.

2. Let stand, covered, following stand time directions on page 15.

3. Rinse foods indicated in the chart.

4. Items which have been layered should be rinsed separately or have a longer stand time.

Sensor Reheat

Sensor Cook

Feature

This sensor feature allows you to reheat cooked, refrigerated food without setting

time. The oven simplifies programming.

Example: To reheat a plate of food

1. . Press Sensor Reheat.

2. I_CCQ . (see More/Less Feature)

(_page 13)

Optional

3. . Press Start.

}_ Cooking starts.

Cooking is complete when 5 beeps sound. (When steam is detected by the

Genius Sensor and 2 beeps sound, the remaining cooking time will appear in the display window.)

NOTE: Casseroles - Add 3 to 4 tablespoons of liquid,

cover with lid or vented plastic wrap. Stir when time appears inthe display window.

Canned foods - Empty contents intocasse- role dish or serving bowl, cover dish with lid or vented plastic wrap. After reheating, let stand

for a few minutes. Plate of food - Arrange food on plate; top with

butter, gravy, etc. Cover with lid or vented plastic wrap. After reheating, let stand for a

few minutes. DO NOT USE SENSOR REHEAT:

1. To reheat bread and pastry products. Use manual power and time for these foods.

2. For raw or uncooked foods.

3. If oven cavity is warm.

4. For beverages.

5. For frozen foods.

Feature

This sensor feature allows you to cook food without setting time. The oven sim-

plifies programming.

Example: To cook Frozen Entrees I

1. . Press until the desired food appears on the

Press 4 times display window.

2. _ . (see More/Less

Feature)

Optional

3. • Press Start.

Cooking is complete when 5 beeps

sound. (When steam is detected by the

Genius Sensor and 2 beeps sound, the remaining cooking time will appear in the

display window.)

For the best results with the

GENIUS SENSOR, follow these rec=

ommendations.

BEFORE Reheating/Cooking:

1. The room temperature surrounding the oven should be below 95° F (35° C).

2. Food weight should exceed 4 oz. (110 g).

3. Be sure the glass tray, the outside of the cooking containers and the inside of the

microwave oven are dry before placing

food in the oven. Residual beads of mois- ture turning into steam can mislead the

sensor.

4. Cover food with lid, or with vented plastic wrap. Never use tightly sealed plastic

containers--they can prevent steam from escaping and cause food to overcook.

DURING Reheating/Cooking: DO NOT open the oven door until 2 beeps

sound and cooking time appears on the

Display Window. Doing so will cause inac-

curate cooking since the steam from food is

no longer contained within the oven cavity. Once the cooking time begins to count

down, the oven door may be opened to stir, turn, or rearrange foods.

AFTER Reheating/Cooking: All foods should have a stand time.
