RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE
Should there be any interference caused by the Microwave
In-A-Drawer T"to your radio or TV, check to make sure that
the appliance is on a different electrical circuit, relocate
the radio or TV as far away from the drawer as feasible or
check the position and signal of receiving antenna.
About Your Microwave
In-A-Drawer TM
ALWAYS have food in the drawer when it is on to absorb
the microwave energy,
The vent under the Microwave In-A-Drawer T"must not be
blocked, During microwaving, steam may come from the
right side of the vent.
When using the Microwave In-A-Draweff" at power levels
below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and
off. It is normal for the exterior of the drawer 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 drawer. Gener-
ally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation
as uncovered ones.
The Microwave In-A-DraweF _is for food preparation only.
It should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.
Your Microwave In-A-DraweF _is rated 950 watts by using
the IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package direc-
tions, check food one or two minutes before the minimum
time and add time accordingly.
When opening or closing the Microwave In-A-Drawer _"
quickly, food in the drawer may be spilled. To clean,
please refer to the Cleaning and Care section on page 15.
About Microwave Cooking
Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards
outside of dish.
• Watch the cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount
of time indicated and add more as needed. Food se-
verely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Check a recipe or cook-
book for suggestions like: paper towels, wax paper,
microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spat-
tering and help foods to cook evenly.
• Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin
areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking be-
fore 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 right to
left.
Add standing time. Remove food from drawer and stir,
if possible. Cover during standing time, allowing the
food to finish cooking without overcooking.
Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that
cooking temperatures have been reached.
Signs of doneness include:
- Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
- Poultry thigh joints move easily.
- Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
- Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

About UtensilsAnd Coverings HOW TO USE ALUMINUM FOIL IN YOUR
DRAWER:
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces
already in your kitchen can be used successfully in your
new microwave. Make sure the utensil does not touch the
interior walls during cooking.
Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and
reheating:
• Glass ceramic (Pyroceram(°_), such as Corningware ®
• Heat-resistant glass (Pyrex (_)
• Microwave-safe plastics
• Microwave-safe paper plates
• Microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain
• Browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheat-
ing time. Follow manufacturer's directions.)
These items can be used for short time reheating of foods
that have little fat or sugar in them:
• Wood, Straw, Wicker
• Small fiat pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on
the food can be used to shield areas that are either
defrosting or cooking too quickly.
• Foil should not come closer than one inch to any sur-
face of the Microwave In-A-Drawer TM.
Should you have questions about utensils or coverings,
check a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe
suggestions.
ACCESSORIES:
There are many microwave accessories available for
purchase. Evaluate carefully before you purchase to
make sure that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe
thermometer will assist you in determining correct done-
ness and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe
temperatures. Dacor is not responsible for any damage to
the appliance when accessories are used.
DO NOT USE
• Metal pans and Bakeware
• Dishes with metallic trim
• Non-heat-resistant glass
• Non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)
• Recycled paper products
• Brown paper bags
• Food storage bags
• Metal twist-ties
Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwav-
ing, place the empty dish in the microwave on HIGH for
30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be
used.
THE FOLLOWING COVERINGS ARE IDEAL:
Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating
and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.
Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.
Plastic wrap that _sspecially marked for microwave
use can be used for cooking and reheating. DO NOT
allow plastic wrap to touch food. Vent so steam can
escape.
Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice
because heat is kept near the food to hasten cooking.
Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or foods
that need tenderizing. DO NOT use metal twist ties.
Remember to slit the bag so steam can escape.
Open Or Close Drawer
Always press the OPEN or CLOSE key on the control panel
to open or close the drawer.
Do not push or pull the drawer by hand, except in
case of emergency, such as a power failure. If nec-
essary, push or pull slowly.
About Children And The
Microwave
Children below the age of 7 should use the Microwave In-
A-Drawer T"with a supervising person very near to them.
Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person
should be in the same room. The child must be able to
reach the drawer comfortably.
At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or sit on the
Microwave In-A-Drawer T'I.
Children should be taught all safety precautions: how
to use potholders, remove coverings carefully and pay
special attention to packages that crisp food because they
may be extra hot.
Do not assume because a child has mastered one cooking
skill that he/she can cook everything.
Children need to learn that the Microwave In-A-Draweff Mis
not a toy. See page 14 for Control Lock feature.

About Safety
Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States Department of Agriculture's recommended temperatures.
160°F For fresh pork, ground meat, boneless white poultry, fish, seafood, egg dishes and frozen prepared food.
165°F For leftovers, ready-to-reheat refrigerated; deli and carry-out "fresh" food.
170°F White meat of poultry.
180°F Dark meat of poultry.
To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a
thick or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER leave
the thermometer in the food during cooking, unless it is
approved for microwave use.
• ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when
handling utensils that are in contact with hot food.
Enough heat from the food can transfer through uten-
sils to cause skin burns.
Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from
the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge of a
dish's covering and carefully open popcorn and oven
cooking bags away from the face.
• Stay near the Microwave In-A-Drawer TMwhile it's in use
and check cooking progress frequently so that there is
no chance of overcooking food.
• NEVER use the Microwave In-A-DrawerT'_for storing
cookbooks or other items.
Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve
its high quality and minimize the spread of foodborne
bacteria.
Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can cause
arcing and/or fires. See page 15.
About Foods

Sensor Settings
Dacor's Sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects
the vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from the food
as it heats. The sensor adjusts the cooking times and
power levels for various foods and quantities.
USING SENSOR SETTINGS:
1. After the Microwave In-A-Drawer T"is plugged in, wait
2 minutes before using any sensor setting.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the
interior of the Microwave In-A-Drawer T"are dry. Wipe
off any moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel.
3. The sensor works with foods at normal storage tem-
perature. For example, popcorn would be at room
temperature.
4. Any sensor selection can be programmed with More or
Less Time Adjustment. See page 13.
5. More or less food than the quantity listed in the charts
should be cooked following the guidelines in any mi-
crowave cookbook.
6. During the first part of sensor use, the food name will
appear on the display. Do not open the Microwave
In-A-Draweff" or touch STOP/CLEAR during this part
of the cycle. The measurement of vapor will be inter-
rupted. If this occurs, an error message will appear.
To continue cooking, touch the STOP/CLEAR key and
cook manually.
When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the
food, the remainder of cooking/reheating time will
appear. The Microwave In-A-Draweff" may be opened
when the remaining time appears on the display. At
this time, you may stir or season food, as desired.
7. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when
popping popcorn, the Microwave In-A-Drawer T"will
turn off, and the time of day will be displayed. If the
sensor does not detect vapor properly when cooking
other foods, _ will be displayed, and the micro-
wave will turn off.
8. Check the food temperature after cooking. If addition-
al time is needed, continue to cook manually.
9. Each food has a cooking hint. Touch the SET UP/
HELP key when the HELP indicator is lighted in the
display.

Manual Defrost
If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the
DEFROST CHART or is above or below the limits in the
AMOUNT column on the DEFROST CHART,you need to
defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previ-
ously cooked, by setting the Power Level to 30%. Follow
the exact 3-step procedure found under TO SET POWER
LEVEL on page 8. Estimate defrosting time and press
POWER LEVEL key eight times for 30% power.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food, the rule
of thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound. For
example, defrost 4 minutes for 1 pound of frozen spa-
ghetti sauce.
Always stop the Microwave In-A-Draweff Mperiodically to
remove or separate the portions that are defrosted. If
food is not defrosted at the end of the estimated defrost-
ing time, program the Microwave In-A-Draweff " in 1
minute increments at a Power Level of 30% until totally
defrosted.
When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost
only long enough to remove from the plastic, then place in
a microwave-safe dish.

Exterior Interior
The outside surface is precoated metal and plastic. Clean
the outside with mild soap and water; rinse and dry with
a soft cloth. Do not use any type of household or abrasive
cleaner.
Stainless Steel Surface
(Select Models)
The exterior should be wiped often with a soft damp cloth
and polished with a soft dry cloth to maintain its beauty.
Always wipe in the direction of the grain. There are also
a variety of products designed especially for cleaning
and shining the stainless exterior of the Microwave In-A-
Drawer TM.We recommend that the cleaner be applied to a
soft cloth and then carefully used on the stainless exterior
rather than sprayed directly onto it. Follow package direc-
tions carefully.
FrontSide Of The Drawer
Wipe the window on both sides with a soft damp cloth to
remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to
maintain if wiped frequently with a soft damp cloth. Avoid
the use of spray cleaners and other harsh cleaners as they
may stain, streak or dull the door surface.
Touch Control Panel
If desired, the touch keys may be deactivated before
cleaning. See the Control Lock information on page 14
of this manual. Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened
slightly with water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not
scrub or use any sort of chemical cleaners. Close the door
and follow directions on page 14 for turning Control Lock
off. Touch STOP/CLEAR.
Cleaning is easy because little heat is transferred to the
interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and set-
ting of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces,
including drawer sealing surfaces, wipe with a soft damp
cloth. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR
SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use mild soap; wipe
clean with a soft damp cloth. Do not use any chemical
oven cleaners.
Drawer Guides
Remove the food crumbs from the drawer guides. Wipe
them with a soft dry cloth in order to keep the drawer
opening and closing smoothly.
Waveguide Cover
The waveguide cover, located on the inside
top of the Microwave area, is made of mica, so it requires
special care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure
good microwave performance. Carefully wipe with a soft
damp cloth any food spatters from the surface of the
cover immediately after they occur. Soil build up may
overheat and cause smoke or possibly catch fire. Do not
remove the waveguide cover.
Odor Removal
Occasionally, cooking odors may remain in the drawer.
To remove odors, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and
juice of one lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup
glass measuring cup. Boil for several minutes using 100%
power. Allow to set in the drawer until cool. Wipe interior
with a soft cloth.
