Microwaving Tips
oMake 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_ Some cookware
is labeled "suitable for microwavingY
If you are unsure, use this dish test:
Measure 1 cup water in a glass cup.
Place in oven on or beside dish°
Microwave 1 minute at High. If
water becomes hot, dish is microwave
safe° If dish heats, it should not be
used for microwaving
oPaper' towels, wax paper' and
plastic wrap can be used to cover
dishes in order to retain moisture
and prevent spattering.
• Some rnicrowaved foods require
stirring, rotating or reazranging
Check your cookbook
o Steam builds up pressure in foods
which are tightly covered by a skin
or membrane. Pierce potatoes, egg
yolks and chicken livers to prevent
bursting.

Sometimes, the oven floor and
walls can become too hot to
touch. Be careful touching the
floor and walls during and after
cooking.
•Foods cooked in liquids (such
aspasta) may tend to boil over
more rapidlythan foodscontaining
less moisture. Should this occur,
refer topage 36 for instructionson
how to clean the inside of the oven.
o Do not use regular cooking
or oven thermometers when
cooking by microwave or
combination. The metal and
mercury in these thermometers
could cause "arcing" and possible
damage to oven.
o Remove the temperature probe
from the oven when not using it
to cook with. If you leave the
probe inside the oven without
inserting it in food or liquid, and
turn on microwave energy, it can
create electrical arcing in the
oven, damage oven walls and
damage the temperature probe.
oPlastic utensils--Plastic utensils
designedfor microwave cooking
are very useful, but should be
used carefully. Even microwave-
safe plastic may not be as tolerant
ofovercooking conditions as are
glass or ceramic materials and may
soften or char if subjected to short
periods of overcookingoIn longer
exposures to overcooking, the food
and utensils could ignite°For
these reasons: 1)Use microwave-
safe plastics only and use them in
strict compliance with the utensil
manufacturer's recommendations,
2) Do not subject empty utensils to
microwaving. 3) Do not permit
children to use plastic utensils
without complete supervision,
oWhen cooking pork, follow
the directions exactly andalways
cook the meat to an internal
temperature of at least 170°E
This assures that, in the remote
possibility that trichina may be
present in the meat, it will be
killed and meat wilt be safe to eat_
o Boiling eggs is not
recommended in a microwave
oven. Pressurecan build up
inside egg yolk and may cause
it to burst, resulting in injury,
•Foods with unbroken outer
"skin" such as potatoes,
sausages, tomatoes, apples,
chicken livers and other giblets,
andegg yolks (see previous
caution) should be pierced to
allow steam to escape during
cooking_
•"Boilable" cooking pouches
and tightly closed plastic bags
should be slit, pierced or vented
as directed in cookbook° If they
are not, plastic could burst during
or immediately after cooking,
possibly resulting in injury. Also,
plasticstorage containersshould be
at least partially uncoveredbecause
they form a tight seal. When
cooking with containers tightly
covered with plastic wrap, remove
coveringcarefully and direct steam
awayfrom hands and face.
o Spontaneous boiling--Under
certain special circumstances,
liquids may start to boil during or
shortly after removal from the
microwave oven, To prevent burns
from splashing liquid, stir the
liquid briefly before removing the
container fromthe microwaveoven.

oUse of the oven metal
accessory rack. (See your
cookbook for proper use.)
--Remove the rack from oven
when not in use.
Use pot holders when handling
the rack and utensils. They may
be hot.
--Do not use microwavebrowning
dish on rack. The rack could
overheat. Use ofrack with
Automatic Cooking feature is not
recommended.
Do not use the drip pan or
spatter shield while
microwaving.
THE EXHAUST HOOD
oHave it installed and properly
grounded by aqualified installer.
See the special installationbooklet
packed with the microwave oven_
oThe exhaust fan in your oven
will operate automatically under
certainconditions (see Automatic
Fan Feature, page 6). While the
fan is operating, caution is
required to prevent the starting
and spreading of accidental
cooking fires while the exhaust
fan is in use. For this reason:
--Never leave surface units
unattended at high heat settings.
Boilovercauses smokingand greasy
spilloversthatmay igniteandspread
if exhaust fan is operating. To
mi_mize automatic fan operation,
use adequate sized utensils and
use high heat only when necess_wy.
--In the event of a grease fire,
smother flaming pan on surface
unit by covering pan completely
with well-fitting lid, cookie sheet
or flat tray,
--Never flame foods under
the oven with the exhaust fan
operating because itmay svead
the flames.
--Keep hood and grease filters
clean, according to instructions on
pages 35 and37,tomaintain good
venting and avoid grease fires.

What YourOven Can Do
Cooking with your new oven
offers a wide variety of food
preparation options. Microwave
cooking uses very short, high
frequency radio waves. The
movement of the microwaves
through the food generates heat
and cooks most foods faster than
conventional methods, while
retaining their natural texture
and moisture. Microwave
cooking heats food directly, not
the cooking utensil or the interior
of the oven. Reheating is easy
and defrosting is particularly
convenient because less time is
spent in food preparation.
Convection cooking constantly
circulates heated air around the food,
creating even browning and sealed-
in flavor by the constant motion of
hot air over the food surfaces,
Your new oven also offers the
option of combination cooking,
using microwave energy along with
convection cooking.. You cook with
Comparison Guide
speed and accuracy, while browning
and crisping to perfection
You can use microwave cooking,
convection cooking or combination
cooking to cook by time. Simply
preset the length of cooking time
desired and your oven turns off
automatically. Or you can cook by
temperature, by these methods,
using the temperature probe to
determine the doneness by the
internal temperature of the food.
This method takes the guesswork
out of cooking, shutting the oven
off automatically when the food
reaches the desired temperaturer
The Automatic Cooking Control
(AUTO COOK) feature does your
microwave cooking for you,. It's
easy and convenient--just follow
the step-by-step instructions in this
manual.. A sensor detects steam
from the food and automatically
adjusts cooking time and power
level for best results.
Combination Auto Roast is a
cooking function that uses the
temperature probe. You simply
select from 4 Combination Auto
Roast codes, and the oven
automatically adjusts power level,
oven temperature and internal food
temperature to cook the food the
way you want it,
Auto Defrost automatically sets the
defrosting time and power levels
for your You choose the appropriate
code number from I to 6 from the
food you are defrosting, then enter
the food weight in pounds and
tenths of a pound and touch Start_
The oven calculates the defrosting
time and changes power levels
during defrosting to give even
defrosting results,.
The Auto Start Timer lets you
program the oven to start cooking
at a desired time, even if you're not
at home.

Cookware Tips
Convection Cooking
METAL PANS are recommended
for'all types of baked products, but
especially where browning or
crusting is important.
Dark or dull finish metal pans are
best for breads and pies because
they absorb heat and produce
crisper crust_
Shiny aluminum pans are better for'
cakes, cookies or muffins because
these pans reflect heat and help
produce a light tender crust.
GLASS OR GLASS-CER_AMIC
casserole or baking dishes are best
suited for egg and cheese iecipes
due to the cleanability of glass.
Combination Cooking
GLASS OR GLASS-CERAMIC
baking containers are recommended
Be sure not to use items with metal
trim as it may cause arcing (sparking)
with oven wall or metal accessory
rack, damaging the cookware, the
rack or the oven_
HEAT-RESISTANT PLASTIC
microwave cookware (safe to
400°F,) may be used, but it is not
recommended for foods requiring
crusting or all-around browning,

rearrange your' program. Defrosting
will always come first, then hold,
and then the cooking function.
Q. Can I defrost and hold only?
A. Yes Sometimes you may only
want to defrost a food, hold it, and
cook it later, All you need to do is
program in Defrost and amount of
time_ Then program Hold and the
amount of time Be sure to put the
thawed dish in the refrigerator
promptly,
NOTE: Let foods remain at room
temperature only as long as safe_
Times wit1 vary,
Q. Iprogrammed my oven for
a specific defrosting time but it
defrosted longer than necessary.
What happened?
A. When instructions conflict,
the oven carries out the last
insWaction. You may have set the
oven to Defrost for 4 minutes,
Hold/Time for 2 minutes, and then
Defrost for 6 minutes° In this case,
the oven would Defrost for 6 minutes
and Hold/Time for 2 minutes.

Automatic Cooking
The Auto Cook feature may be
used to eliminate your need to look
up cooking time in the cookbook or
guess how long to set cooking time
By actually sensing the steam
that escapes as food microwaves,
this feature automatically adjusts
the oven's cooking time to various
types and amounts of food.
Because most cooking containers
must be covered during automatic
cooking, this feature is best with
foods that you want to steam or
retain moisture
Note: [
Use of the metal accessory rack ]
with Automatic Cooking is I
NOT recommended. 1
Foods Recommended
A wide variety of foods including
meats, fish casseroles, vegetables,
leftovers and convenience foods
can be Auto Cooked.
Foods Not Recommended
Foods that must be cooked uncovered,
foods that require constant attention,

How toAdjust
AUTO COOK Codes
ToSuit YourTaste
By simply adding a t after' any
AUTO COOK code number, you can
set the oven to cook for approximately
20 % less time than the code would
regularly provide.
For example, if CODE 4 cooks your
chicken more done than you like it,
set CODE 41 next time and you'll
get 20 % shorter cooking time,
If you want a longer cooking time
than a code provides, add a 9 after
the code,
For the chicken in the example
above, CODE 49 would provide
approximately 20% longer cooking
time than the regular CODE 4
would provide.
Example:
Touch AUTO COOK pad, "ENTER
CODE" flashes on display,
Touch number pads 4 and i in
that order. "CODE 4" shows on
disptay_
Containers and covers
Appropriate containers and coverings
help assure good cooking results.
*Always use microwave-safe
containers and cover them with
lids, wax paper or plastic wrap.
Wonder if it's microwave-safe? Put
it to the test described on page 3.
*Never use tight-sealing plastic
covers--they can prevent steam
from escaping and cause food to
overcook.
• Match the amount of food to
the size of the container. Fill
containers at least half ful! for best
results,
oBe sure the outside of the
cooking container and the inside
of the microwave oven are dry
before placing food in the oven°
Beads of moisture turning into
steam can mislead the sensor.
o Some foods may require
stirring or rotating after first
signal. See Automatic Cooking
Control Guide and recipes on
the following pages.
Use microwave-safe casseroles or'
bowls for entrees and vegetables.
Cover' with lids that fit. If lids are
not available, use plastic wrap or'
wax paper. Plastic wrap should be
vented to allow for escaping steam.
For frozen foods in metal trays,
remove foil covering and baked
goods, reinsert tray into box and
close ends of box.
Slit plastic pouches 1 inch as
shown above. Break food up after
first signal.
Use oblong or square containers for
chicken or corn on the cob. Plastic
wrap covering should be vented to
allow for escaping steam,
Paper plates--while they may be
used for Time and Temperature
Cooking and Defrosting, do not
use them with automatic cooking.
Use microwave-safe plates or bowls
for reheating. Cover with plastic
wrap or' wax paper.
Touch START. "AUTO" shows on
display. DO NOT OPEN DOOR
until first oven signal, then rotate
dish 1/2 turn if necessary, Close
door and touch START to finish
cooking,.
For frozen entrees in paperboard
trays, remove tray from box but do
