SAVE THESE iNSTRUCTiONS

iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

• Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently - Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter.

• Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should not be inserted in the microwave oven as they may

create a fire or risk of electric shock.

• Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn off the pad and touch electrical parts involving

a risk of electric shock.

• Do not use paper products when appliance is operated in the "PAN BROWN" mode (on models

with this feature).

• Do not store any materials other than manufactur- er's recommended accessories in this oven when

not in use.

• Do not store anything directly on top of the microwave oven when the microwave oven is

in operation.

• When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan

on.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

• Use care when cleaning the vent-hood filter. Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based oven

cleaners, may damage the filter.

• Do not cover or block any openings on the microwave oven.

• Do not store this microwave oven outdoors.

Do not use the microwave oven near water - for

example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.

• Do not immerse cord or plug in water.

• Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

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

• Do not mount over a sink.

• Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.

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 close 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.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances. A 120 Volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15- or 20-amp fused

electrical supply is required. (Atime-delay fuse is recommended.) It is recommended that a separate

circuit serving only this appliance be provided.

Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

GROUNDING

• For all cord connected appliances: The microwave oven must be grounded. In the

event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an

escape wire for the electric current. The microwave oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding

wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and

grounded.

WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug

can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the

grounding instructions are net completely under- stood, or if doubt exists as to whether the microwave

oven is properly grounded.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

INSTRUCTIONS

Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or

serviceman install an outlet near the microwave oven.

• For a permanently connected appliance: The microwave oven 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

microwave oven.

GmINcroKNowYoeeMICROWAVEOVEN

This section discusses the concepts behind microwave cooking. It also shows you the basics you need to know to operate your microwave oven. Please read this information before you use your oven.

{i?i!ii

Microwave energy is not hot. It causes food to make

its own heat, and it's this heat that cooks the food.

Microwaves are like TV waves, radio waves, or light waves. You cannot see them. but you can see what they do.

A magnetron in the microwave oven produces microwaves. The microwaves move into the oven

where they contact food as it turns on the turntable.

Magnetron

Metal floor Glass turntable

Oven cavity

The glass turntable of your microwave oven lets

microwaves pass through. Then they bounce off a metal floor, back through the glass turntable, and

are absorbed by the food. Microwaves pass through most glass, paper, and

plastics without heating them so food absorbs the energy. Microwaves bounce off metal containers so

food does not absorb the energy.

,, Always cook food for the shortest cooking time

recommended. Check to see how the food is cooking. If needed, touch the JET STARTTMfeature

pad while the oven is operating or after the cooking cycle is over (see the "Using JET STARTTM

feature" section).

* To help make sure the food is evenly cooked,

stir, turn over, or rearrange the food about halfway through the cooking time.

* if you do not have a cover for a dish, use wax

paper, or microwave-approved paper towels or plastic wrap. Remember to turn back a corner of

the plastic wrap ¼to _ in. (6.35 to 12.7 mm) to vent steam during heating or cooking.

Using your microwave oven may cause interfer-

ence to your radio, TV, or similar equipment. When there is interference, you can reduce it or remove it

by:

* Cleaning the door and sealing surfaces of the

oven.

To test the oven, put 1 cup (250 mL) of cold water 2 minutes. When the time is up, the water should be

Test dinnerware or cookware before using.

To test a dish, put it into the oven with 1 cup

(250 mL) of water beside it. Cook at 100% cook power for one minute. If the dish gets hot and

water stays cool, do not use it. Some dishes (melamine, some ceramic dinnerware, etc.)

• Never lean on the door or allow a child to swing on it when the door is open.

• Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not heat containers, but the heat from the food can make the container hot.

• Do not use newspaper or other printed paper in the oven.

• Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, paper, gourds, or clothes in the oven.

• Do not start a microwave oven when it is empty.

Product life may be shortened. If you practice

programming the oven, put a container of water in the oven. It is normal for the oven door to look

wavy after the oven has been running for a while.

• Do not try to melt paraffin wax in the oven.

Paraffin wax will not melt in a microwave oven

because it allows microwaves to pass through it.

• Do not operate the microwave oven unless the glass turntable is securely in place and can rotate

freely. The turntable can rotate in either direction.

Make sure the turntable is correct-side up in the

oven. Handle your turntable with care when

removing it from the oven to avoid possibly breaking it. If your turntable cracks or breaks,

contact your dealer for a replacement.

• When you use a browning dish, the browning dish bottom must be at least -Yl10in. (5 mm) above

the turntable. Follow the directions supplied with the browning dish.

absorb microwave energy, and may become too hot

to handle or may slow cooking times. Cooking in

metal containers not designed for microwave use could damage the oven, as could containers with

hidden metal (twist-ties, foil lining, staples, metallic glaze or trim).

• Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause

them to burst, and possibly damage the oven. Slice hard-boiled eggs before heating. In rare

cases, poached eggs have been known to explode. Cover poached eggs and allow a stand-

ing time of one minute before cutting into them.

=For best results, stir any liquid several times

during heating or reheating. Liquids heated in certain containers (especially containers shaped

like cylinders) may become overheated. The liquid may splash out with a loud noise during or after

heating or when adding ingredients (coffee granules, tea bags, etc.). This can damage the oven.

• Microwaves may not reach the center of a roast. The heat spreads to the center from the outer,

cooked areas just as in regular oven cooking. This is one of the reasons for letting some foods (for

example, roasts or baked potatoes) stand for a while after cooking, or for stirring some foods

during the cooking time.

• Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable utensils are not suitable and it is difficult to

maintain appropriate deep-frying temperatures.

• Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended cooking time, potatoes should be

slightly firm because they will continue cooking during standing time. After microwaving, let

potatoes stand for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.

if your electric power line or outlet voltage is less than 110 volts, cooking times may be longer. Have a

qualified electrician check your electrical system.
