PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE

TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

(a) Never interfere or tamper with safety interlocks.
(b) Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or clean>r

residue to accumulate,on door sealing surfaces. Wipe the door sealing area frequently with
a mild detergent, rinse snd wipe dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads.

(c) When open, the door must not be subjected to strain; for example, a child hanging on the

opened door or any load on it could cause the oven to fall forward, and the weight could
also damage the door.

(d) DO not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door

closes properly and that there is no damage to the:
(1) DOOR (bent)
(2) HINGES AND L4TCHES (broken or loosened)
(3) DOOR SEALS AND SEALING SURFACES

This basic microwave cooking

method allows you to cook food
for a desired time. In addition to

the HI (maximum) power level,

you can select different
microwave power from 9 levels,
1 (lO’%Oof total power) to 9 (90Y0
power) for the foods that require
slower cooking. The oven also
provides power level O (no
power).

Foods with high moisture
content should be cooked on
maximum power, as this is the
fastest cooking method and best
maintains the natural flavour
and texture of the foods.

To check the power level during
cooking, touch POWER LEVEL.
The power level appears in the
display window.

Manual Defrosting

For manual defrosting (with’out
using Auto Defrost features), use
power level 3. To speed up the
defrosting of dense foods over
450 g, you may start on HI for 3
minutes, then reduce to the
level 3.

OPERATION

What is wrong “when the oven light does not ‘

I

glow?

There may be several reasons why the oven

light does not glow. Perhaps:
Door is not closed and locked. Push firmly to
be sure that door is locked properly.

The light bulb has burned out.

Why is steam coming out of the air exhaust
vent?
Steam is normally produced during cooking.
The microwave oven has been made to vent
this steam.

Can the microwave oven be damaged if it
operates empty?
Yes. Never operate while empty or without the

turntable positioned correctly on the roller rest.

When the oven is plugged into a wall outlet for
the first time, it might not work properly. What

is wrong?
When the oven is plugged in for the first time
or when power resumes after a power
interruption, the microcomputer used in the
oven control may temporarily become
scrambled and fail to function as programmed.
Unplug the oven from the wall outlet and then
plug it back in. The microcomputer will then
reset for proper functioning.

Why do I see light reflection around the outer
case?
This light is from the oven light located outside
the oven cavity.

Why is there noise coming from the turntable
when the oven is turned on?
This noise occurs when the turntable roller rest
and cavity bottom are dirty. Frequent cleaning
Dfthese parts should eliminate or reduce the
Ioise.

Q.

A.

What is wrong when baked foods have a hard,
dry brown spot?
This is caused by overcooking. Shorten
cooking or reheating time.

Why do eggs sometimes pop?
The egg yolk may pop because of steam
build-up inside the membrane. To prevent this,
simply pierce the membrane with a toothpick
before cooking it.

CAUTION: Never microwave eggs in the shell
since they may explode.

W’hy are scrambled eggs sometimes a little dry

after cooking?
Eggs d~ out if they are overcooked. You may
need to vary the cooking time for one of these ‘

reasons:
Eggs vary in size.
Eggs are at room temperature one time and at
refrigerator temperature another time.
The shapes of utensils vary, which makes it
necessary to va~ cooking time.
Eggs continue cooking during standing time.

What is wrong when three potatoes bake
thoroughly and the fourth one is still not
cooked?
The fourth potato may be slightly heavier than
the others and should be cooked 30 to 60
seconds longer. Remember to allow 2.5 cm
around each potato when baking. For more
even cooking, place potatoes in a circle.

.

Why do baked apples sometimes burst during

cooking?

The peel has not been removed from the top

half of each apple to allow for expansion of the
interior of the apple during cooking. As in
regular cooking methods, the interior of the

apple expands during the cooking process.

How are boil-overs avoided?

Use a farger ~tensil than usual for cooking. If
you open the oven door or touch STOP/CLEAR,
the food will stop boiling.

Why does the dish become hot whenl

microwave food in it?
As the food becomes hot it will conduct the
heat into the dish. Use oven mitts to remove

food after cooking.

Wipe the oven inside and outside with a soft cloth

and a mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe
dry, This should be done on a weekly basis —
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 spatters with a wet paper towel,
especially after cooking chicken%r bacon.

REMOVABLE PARTS
The following parts may be removed as described.
They should be washed in warm (not hot) water
with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Once they
are clean, rinse them well and dry with a soft cloth.

Advantages of microwave cooking are speed
and efficiency. For warming, heating, and
defrosting, nothing compares. There are a few T
tips that will make microwaving easier and

more enjoyable.

Microwave Cooking Principles “
Because microwave cooking requires only
one-quarter to one-third the time of
conventional cooking, the same cooking
principles become even more important.

Quantity
The more food being choked, the longer you
will have to cook it. As a general rule, when
doubling a recipe, increase the cooking time
by about 50 percent. When cutting a recipe in
half, reduce the time by about 40 percent.

Dens-hy
Dense foods, such as potatoes, roasts and
carrots, absorb microwave energy less quickly
than porous foods such as ground beef or

mashed potatoes. Therefore, denser foods take
longer to cook.

Shape and Size
Small pieces cook faster than large ones. For
even cooking, it is important to have all the
pieces the same size. Evenly shaped pieces,

round or doughnut shaped, microwave best.

When cooking items of varying thickness,

arrange the thick portion near the outer edge
of the dish.

Moisture, Sugar and Fat

Food high in moisture, sugar or fat cook faster
than foods that are low in these substances.
Add a minimum of liquid to moist foods. An
excess amount of water slows cooking.

Starting Temperature

Frozen or refrigerated foods take longer to

microwave than food at room temperature.

Delicate Ingredients
Some foods require special attention when
cooked in the microwave oven. Delicate foods
such as eggs, cheese, mayonnaise, etc. cook

so quickly, they should be watched carefully.

.

Microwave Cooking Techniques
Arranging: Arrange foods in a circular pattern,

when possible. c

Piercing: Pierce the membrane of foods such
as eggs, oysters, snails, sausages, livers,
clams and whole vegetables, so they do not

burst.
Covering: Covering speeds heating and
prevents spattering.
Stirring: To help food cook more quickly and
evenly.

Turning Over: To help larger foods such as

roasts or whole chickens cook more evenly.
Reheating: Place food that is denser/larger/

thicker to the outer edge and the

smal{er/thinner or more porous food to the
centre.

Shielding: To prevent overcooking, thin or
bony areas can be protected with small strips

of aluminium foil.

Standing Time: Foods continue cooking even
after removal from the oven. Standing time is
necessary to allow foods to complete cooking.

Defrosting

Thq microwave’s ability to defrost is one of its

most appreciated features. Many of the same
principles and techniques that apply to
microwave cooking also apply to microwave
defrosting.

Converting Recipes

Microwave recipes will likely call for less liquid
and cooking time.

Microwave Thermometers
For best results, a microwave-safe
thermometer can be carefully and properly

inserted into the food. The guide tointernal

temperatures gives suggested thermometer

readings for meat and poultry. Keep in mind

that standing time is essential for most food to

reach its proper sewing temperature.

PREPARATION
Use a microwave-safe baking dish, casserole,
etc. to cook meat, poultry and fish.

-t.

Frozen meat, poultry and fish should be
completely thawed.
Wash poultry and fish in cool water.
Arrange small items in a single layer in dish
and avoid overlapping edges of food.
Place thick sections toward edge of the dish.
Use a rack in the dish to elevate meat out of
the juices.

Use spices and seasonings as desired.
Add salt after cooking if necessary.
Kitchen bouquet with butter may be used to
obtain

“cooked” colour of meats and poultry.

Aluminium foils can be used to cover thin
parts of meat or poultry wings and legs to
prevent overcooking. Foils should be applied

toward the end of cooking time. Place meat fat

side down.

COOKING

Use wax paper or plastic wrap to stop
splattering.

Turn over or rearrange meat, poultry and fish

halfway through cooking time.

CHECKING DONENESS

Beet The colour inside meat indicates

doneness. Rare roast should be red inside.
Medium is pink and grey indicates well done.

Pork:

Cooked pork meat should be grey with

clear juice.
Pouttry: Juices should be clear yellow when
cooked. Legs should move freely.

Fish and Seafood: Should be opaque in colour

and flake easily.

To check internal temperature of various

meats and poultry, use a microwave or

conventional meat thermometer after

rern?ving meat from the oven. Insert the

therrno~eter avoiding bone or fat. Lower

temperatures are found in the centre of the

roast or in the muscle close to a large bone.

Never use a conventional meat thermometer
in the microwave oven.

Return undercooked food to oven for a short

period of time at the recommended power
level. Let stand as recommended in chart.

Cover roasts and whole poultry during stand

time.
