GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. This microwave oven is equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and
ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
DANGER – Electrical Shock Hazard
Touching some of the internal components can cause serious personal injury or death.
Do not disassemble this appliance.
WARNING – Electrical Shock Hazard
Improper use of the grounding can result in electric shock. Do not plug into an outlet until appliance is
properly installed and grounded.
Electrical Requirements
Check the Installation Instructions for proper location for the power supply.
The electrical requirements are a 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp. or more protected electrical
supply. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the microwave oven be provided.
For your protection, the microwave oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug.
It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. DO NOT
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PIN FROM THE
PLUG. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.
The power supply cord and plug must be connected to a separate 120 Volt AC, 60 Hz, 15 Amp,
or more branch circuit, single grounded receptacle. The receptacle should be located inside the
cabinet directly above the microwave oven mounting location as shown above.
NOTE: (1) If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet
near the appliance. (2) If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a

ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
• Read this Owner’s Manual and always save it for reference.
• A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it for microwave cooking
principles, techniques, hints, and recipes.
• NEVER use the microwave oven without the turntable and support nor turn the turntable
over so that a large dish could be placed in the microwave oven. The turntable will turn
both clockwise and counterclockwise.
• ALWAYS have food in the microwave oven when it is on to absorb the microwave
energy.
• When using the microwave oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the
magnetron cycling on and off.
• It is normal for the exterior of the microwave oven to be warm to the touch when cooking
or reheating.
• Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and the moisture
in food will influence the amount of moisture that condenses in the microwave oven.
Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered ones.
Ventilation openings must not be blocked.
• The microwave oven is for food preparation only. It should not be used to dry clothes or
newspapers.
• Your microwave oven is rated at 1000 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure. In using
recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before the minimum time and
add time accordingly.
ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING
• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of the dish.
• Watch the cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more
as needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Check the recipe or cookbook for suggestions, such as
paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap, or a lid. Covers prevent spattering
and help foods to cook evenly.
• Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent
overcooking before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.
• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if possible.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken
and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom
and from the center of the dish to the outside.
• Add standing time. Remove the food from the microwave oven and stir, if possible.
Cover for the standing time which allows the food to finish cooking without overcooking.
• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking temperatures have been
reached. Doneness signs include:
• Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
• Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.
• Poultry thigh joints move easily.
• Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
• Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

SETTING UP YOUR OVEN
You can see the Installation Manual (included in your box) to install and set up your microwave.
INSTALLING THE TURNTABLE
1. Place the turntable ring in the round depression in the bottom of the microwave oven so that
it turns freely.
2. Place the glass turntable (flat side up) on the turntable ring so that the hub engages the
turntable shaft in the bottom of the oven. The glass turntable should not turn freely when it
is correctly installed.
USING YOUR MICROWAVE
(Tips for the best results)
Storage Temperature
Foods taken from the freezer or refrigerator take longer to cook than the same foods would at room
temperature.
Size
Small pieces of food cook faster than large ones. Pieces similar in size and shape will cook more evenly
when cooked together. For more even results, reduce the power levels when cooking large pieces of
food.
Natural moisture
Very moist foods cook more evenly because microwave energy heats water molecules very efficiently.
Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables from the outside to the center to distribute the heat more
evenly. This will allow the food to cook faster. Constant stirring is not necessary.
Turn over items
Turn over foods such as pork chops, roasts, or whole cauliflower halfway through the cook time. This will
help to expose all sides equally to microwave energy.
Food placement
Place delicate areas of food items, such as asparagus tips, toward the center of the turntable tray.
Food arrangement
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or salmon, with the thicker or meatier parts
toward the outside of the turntable tray.
Let the food stand
After removing the food from the microwave, cover the food with foil or a casserole lid and let it stand to
finish cooking. This will help the food finish in the center and avoids overcooking the out edges. The
length of stand time depends on the density and surface area of the food items.
Wrapping in paper towels or waxed paper
• Never place the glass tray upside down. The glass
tray should never be restricted.
• Both glass tray and turntable ring assembly must
always be used during cooking.
• All food and containers of food are always placed
on the glass tray for cooking.
• If glass tray or turntable ring assembly cracks or
breaks, contact your nearest authorized service
center.
13
732 South Racetrack Road, Henderson, Nevada 89015
Sandwiches and many other food types containing pre baked bread should be wrapped prior to
placing in the microwave to help prevent the food items from drying out while heating.

15
732 South Racetrack Road, Henderson, Nevada 89015
Tips for best results:
• Use defrost only for raw food items.
• Defrosting gives best results when your food is taken directly from the freezer. If the
food has been stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a temperature of
5°F (-15°C) or below, always program a lower food weight or lower cook time to prevent
cooking the food.
• Enter a reduced weight if the frozen food has been outside the freezer for more than 20
minutes.
• The shape of the food package alters the defrosting time. For example, a shallow,
rectangular food package will defrost more quickly than a deep block of food.
• Separate pieces as they begin to defrost.
Tips for defrosting meat
For the best results, use these suggestions when defrosting meat:
Cooking with the sensor
Sensor cooking detects the humidity released by your cooking food and adjusts the cooking
time based on the type and amount of food cooking.
• Press Reheat, then press START. Your microwave automatically sets the cook time.
When using sensor cooking:
• Casseroles: Add 2-3 tablespoons of liquid, cover with a lid or vented plastic wrap. Stir
when instructed from the display.
• Canned foods: Place the contents into a microwave-safe dish and cover with a loose-
fitting lid or vented plastic wrap. Let it stand a few minutes before serving.
• Plates of food: Arrange food on the plate. Cover with a loose-fitting lid or vented plastic
wrap. Let it stand a few minutes before serving.

Wipe with a soft cloth and warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners or scouring pads.
For baked-on food, use baking soda or a mild soap, then rinse thoroughly with hot water.
To help loosen baked-on food particles or liquids, heat two cups of water (add lemon juice if
you want to keep your microwave fresh smelling) in a four-cup measuring cup at high power for
five minutes or until boiling. Let it cool in the microwave, then wipe the interior with a soft cloth.
Waveguide cover
The waveguide cover is located on the right wall inside your microwave. Keep the waveguide
cover clean to assure good microwave performance. Carefully wipe with a damp cloth any food
spatters from the surface of the cover immediately after they occur. Built-up splashes may
overheat and cause smoke or possibly catch fire. DO NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE
COVER.
Removing odors
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the microwave. To remove, combine one cup
water, lemon juice, and several whole cloves in a two-cup glass measuring cup. Boil for several
minutes at high power, then let it cool in the microwave. Wipe the interior with a soft cloth.
Turntable and turntable support
Remove the turntable and turntable support and wash them in mild, sudsy water. For stubborn
stains, use a mild cleanser and non-abrasive scouring sponge. You can also wash them in the
top rack of a dishwasher.
The turntable motor shaft is not sealed, so excess water or spills should be wiped up
immediately.
