WARNING Continued
OPERATING AND CLEANING
■ Donotstoreanythingdirectlyontopofthe
microwave oven surface when the microwave oven
is in operation.
■ Oversizedfoodsoroversizedmetalutensilsshould
not be inserted in a microwave/convection 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 in oven when appliance
is operating in any cooking mode except microwave.
■ Someproductssuchaswholeeggsandsealed
containers—for example, closed jars—are able to
explode and should not be heated in this oven.
■ Donotcoverracksoranyotherpartoftheoven
with meal foil. This will cause overheating of the
microwave/convection oven.
■ Cookmeatandpoultrythoroughly—
meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F,
and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature
of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually
protects against foodborne illness.
■ Makesureallcookwareusedinyourmicrowave
oven is suitable for microwaving. Most glass
casseroles, cooking dishes, measuring cups, custard
cups, pottery or china dinnerware which does not
have metallic trim or glaze with a metallic sheen can
be used.in compliance with cookware manufacturers’
recommendations.
■ Itisimportanttokeeptheareacleanwherethe
door seals against the microwave. Use only mild,
nonabrasive detergents applied with a clean sponge
or soft cloth. Rinse well.
SUPER HEATED WATER
■ Liquids,suchaswater,coffee,ortea,areableto
be overheated beyond the boiling point without
appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling
when the container is removed from the microwave
oven is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT
IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING
OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED
OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED
INTO THE LIQUID.
■ Toreducetheriskofinjurytopersons:
- Donotoverheattheliquid.
- Stirtheliquidbothbeforeandhalfwaythrough
heating it.
- Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow
necks.
- After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing
the container.
- Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other
utensil into the container.
USE OF THE MICROWAVE RACK ACCESSORY
■ Removethemicrowaverackfromtheovenwhennot
in use.
■ Usepotholderswhenhandlingthemicrowaverack
and cookware. They may be hot.
■ Donotuserackshelfandcircularrackatthesame
time.
■ Besurethatthemicrowaverackispositioned
properly inside the oven to prevent product damage.
Rack should not touch microwave walls.

PACEMAKERS
Most pacemakers are shielded from interference from electronic products, including microwaves. However,
patients with pacemakers may wish to consult their physicians if they have concerns.
VENT FAN
The fan will operate automatically under certain conditions. Take care to prevent the starting and spreading of
accidental cooking fires while the vent fan is in use.
■ Cleantheundersideofthemicrowaveoften.Donot
allow grease to build up on the microwave or the
fan filters.
■ Intheeventofagreasefireonthesurfaceunits
below the microwave oven, smother a flaming pan
on the surface unit by covering the pan completely
with a lid, a cookie sheet or a flat tray.
■ Usecarewhencleaningtheventfanfilters.
Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based oven
cleaners, may damage the filters.
■ Whenpreparingflamingfoodsunderthemicrowave,
turn the fan on.
■ Neverleavesurfaceunitsbeneathyourmicrowave
oven unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers
cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite
and spread if the microwave vent fan is operating.
Tominimizeautomaticfanoperation,useadequate
sized cookware and use high heat on surface units
only when necessary.

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE
TO EXCESSIVEMICROWAVE ENERGY
■ 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.
■ Do Not Place any object between the oven front
face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to
accumulate on sealing surfaces.
■ Do Not Operate the oven if it is damaged. It is
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

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
To prevent risk of electric shock, follow these instructions:
■ Plug microwave into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
■ Do not remove the ground prong or use an
adapter.
■ Do not use an extension cord.
WARNING Improper use of the grounding
plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
This appliance 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.
Thisapplianceisequippedwithapowercord
having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded.
Consultaqualifiedelectricianorservice
technician if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if doubt exists as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded.
A short power-supply is provided to reduce
the risks resulting from becoming entangled
or tripping over a longer cord. Do not use an
extension cord with this appliance. If the power
cordistooshort,haveaqualifiedelectrician
or service technician install an outlet near the
appliance.

Combination Fast Cooking
Your oven also offers the option of Combination Fast Cook, using microwave energy along with convection cooking.
You cook with speed and accuracy, while browning and crisping to perfection. .
Cooking Method
Microwave energy and convection
heat combine to cook foods up
to 25% faster than regular ovens,
while browning and sealing in
juices.
Heat Source
Microwave energy and circulating
heated air.
Heat Conduction
Food heats from instant energy from penetration and
heat conducted from outside
of food.
Benefits
Shortened
cooking time from
microwave energy, plus
browning and crisping from
convection heat.
Options
USING THE OVEN: Options
Microwave Cooking
Your oven uses microwave energy to cook by a set time or weight, or automatically by sensor.
Sensor microwave works by detecting the increasing humidity released during cooking. The oven automatically
adjusts the cooking time to various types and amounts of food.
Cooking Method
Microwave energy is distributed evenly
throughout the oven for thorough, fast
cooking of food.
Heat Source
Microwave energy.
Heat Conduction
Heat produced within food by
instant energy penetration.
Benefits
Fast, high efficiency cooking.
Oven and surroundings do not get hot. Easy clean-up.
Always use the shelf with Fast
Bake. For best results, use one
shelf in the lower position.
or
Do not use the
shelves when
microwave cooking.
Convection Baking and Convection Roasting
During baking or roasting, a heating element is used to raise the temperature of the air inside the oven. Any oven
temperature from 225°F. to 425°F. may be programmed. A fan gently circulates this heated air throughout the oven,
over and around the food, producing golden brown exteriors and rich moist interiors. This circulation of heated air is
called convection.
Because the heated air is kept constantly moving, not permitting a layer of cooler air to develop around the food,
some foods cook faster than in regular oven cooking.
Cooking Method
Hot air circulates around food to
produce browned exteriors and
seal in juices.
Heat Source
Circulating heated air
(Convection).
Heat Conduction
Heat conducted from
outside of food to inside.
Benefits
Aids in browning and seals
in flavor. Cooks some foods
faster than regular ovens. Always use the shelf when
baking. For best results, use
one shelf in the lower position.
