FcwPerwma~Safety’, Thi$AppWmcehfhNt BeProp-
erly Grounded. Th~ pc)wercord of this appliance is
equipped with athree-prong (grounding) plug
which mates with astandard three-prong (ground-
ing) wall rati~ptacle (Fig. 1) to minimize the possi-
bi!!~yof elect~c shock hazard from this appliance.
The customer $hould have the wall receptacle and
circuit checked by aqualified electrician to make
sure the receptack?kproperly grounded.
Where astandard two-prong wall receptacle is en-
countered, it is the personal responsibility and obli-
gation of the customer to have it replaced with a
properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.
Do Not under Any circumstances cut or Remove
The Third (Ground) Prong From -1-hePower cord.
A. Usage Situations Where Appliance’s Power
cord will EMDkxxmnectf?dInfrequently.
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the use
of an adapter p!ug. However, if you still elect to use
an adapter, where local codes permit, aTEMPO-
RARY CONNECTION may be made to aproperly
grounded two-prong wail receptacle by the use of a
UL listed adapter which is available at most local
hardware stores (Fig. 2). The larger slot in the
adapter must be aligned with the larger slot in the
wall receptacle to provide proper polarity in the
connection of the power cord.
Caution: Attaching the adapter ground terminal to
the wall receptacle cover screw does not ground
the appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and
not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded
through the house wiring. The customer should
have the circuit checked by aqualified electrician to
make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power cord from the
adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand. If
this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is very
likely to break with repeated use. Should this hap-
pen, DO NOT USE the appliance until aproper
ground has again been established.
B. Usage Situations Where .Appliance’S Power
CordVW!!BeLliscormectd Frequently.
Do not use an adapter plug in these situations be-
cause disconnecting of the power cord places un-
due strain on the adapter and leads to eventual fai!-
ure of the adapter ground terminal. The customer
should have the two-prong wall receptacle replaced
with athree-prong (grounding) receptacle by a
qualified electrician before using the appliance.

1. For personal safety the oven must be properly
grounded. See groundingWMructims on page3of
this book. For best operation, plug this appliance
into its own electrical outlet, to prevent flickering of
lights, blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit breaker,
2, Use cd extension cords. Because of potential
,M@?yhazards under certain conditions we strongly
‘recommend against the use of an extension cord.
Hbwever, if you still elect to use an extension cord,
it /sabsolutely necessary that it be a UL listed 3-wiie
grounding type appliance extension cord and that
the current carrying rating of the cord in amperes
be 15amperes m“greater. Such extension cords are
obtainable through General Electric service. If you
‘do use an ,extension cord with your microwave
mmn, the’interior light may flicker and the blower
sound may w.wywhen oven is in use.
3, Be cwtaln to place the frontsurface ot the door
Nwe* inchm or mom back from the countertop
tii@gf4to avoidacckfen!altippingof the appliance in
ncmmdusage.
4. Use metal onByas d;rected in cookbook. Metal
strips as used on meat roasts are helpful in cooking
food when used as dirtmh?d. Metal trays may be
used for TV dinners. However, when using metal in
the microwave oven, keep metal a! least l-inch
awayfrom sides of mbwwwweoven.
5. DO not operate the oven while empty to avoid
damage bWmoven and the danger of We, If by ac-
cident the ov$mshould run empty aminute or two,.
no harlm is dorm. However, try to avoid operating
the cwen empty at all times–it saves energy and
prolongs life of the oven.
6. Cooking ?Mwsils may beconap hot because of
heat transferred from the heated food. This is espe-
cially true Hplastic ‘wrap has been covering the top
and Iwmdies cd the utensil. Pot holders may be
needed to handle the utensil.
7. smw?thw?s, the oven shelf can become too hot
to touch. Be careful touching the shelf during and
after cooking.
8. !240not use any in food you are
microwaving Unless that thermometer is designed
or recommended for use in the microwave oven.
9. $Nws probe from the oven
when not using Hto cook with. If you leave the
probe inside the oven without inserting it in food or
liquid, and turn orI microwave energy, it can create
electrical arcing in the oven, and damage oven

10. Remove wine on paper and plastic
bags before placing in oven. Twist-ties sometimes
cause bag to heat, and may cause fire.
$1.DQn”tdefrost frozen in narrow necked
bottles especially carbonated ones. Even if the con-
tainer is opened, pressure can build up. This can
cause the container to burst, resulting in injury.
12. Don’t overcook. Excessiveovercookingdehy-
dratespotatoes,and may causethem to catch fire
causingdamage.
13. Hfood shouldever ignite: Keepthe oven door
closed. Turn off the power immediately: Touch
CLEAR/OFF or disconnect power cord or shut off
power at the fuse circuit breaker panel.
14. Boilingeggs (In and out of shell) is not recom-
mendedfor microwave cooking. Pressure can build
up inside egg yolk and may cause it to burst, result-
ing in injury.
15. Foods with unbrokenouter “skin” such as po-
tatoes, hot dogs or sausages, tomatoes, apples,
chicken livers and other giblets, and eggs (see
above) should be pierced to allow steam to escape
during cooking.
1&“Boilable” cooking pouches and tight!yclosed
plastic bags should bq slit, pricked or vented as di-
rected in Cookbook. If they are not, plastic could
burst during or immediately after cooking, possibly
resulting in injury. Also, plastic storage containers
should be at least partially uncovered because they
form atight seal. When cooking with containers
tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove covering
carefully and direct steam away from hands and
face.
17. Do not pop popcorn in your microwave oven
unless in aspecial microwave popcorn accessory
or unless you use popcorn labeled for use in micro-
wave ovens. Because of the heat generated without
these precautions, the container could catch fire.
18. Plastic Utensiis–Plastic utensils designed for
microwave cooking are very useful, but should be
used carefully. Even microwave plastic may not be
as tolerant of overcooking conditions as are glass
or ceramic materials and may soften or char if sub-
jected to short periods of overcooking. In longer ex-
posures to overcooking, the food and utensils
could ignite. For these reasons: 1) Use microwave
plastics only “and use them” in strictcmwliane~
with the utensil manufacturer’s recommendations.
2) Do not subject empty utensils to microwaving. 3)
Do not permit children to use plastic utensils with-
out complete supervision.
19. DOInot use your oven to dry news-
papers. If overheated, they can catch fire.
20. pork either conventionally or in
the microwave oven, follow our directions exactly
and always cook. the meat to at least 170°. This

may be present in the meat, it will be killed and
meat will be safe to eat.

How
~~e Defrost setting is designed for
even thawing necessary for large
~mounts of food and is one of the
most important advantages of a
microwave oven, making defrost-
ing quick and easy with little atten-
tion. Power Level 3is automatically
set for defrcwt!ng, but you may
change this for more flexibility. See
your Cookbook for the complete
defrosting chart.

Q. Can !Defrost small items in a
hurry?
AmYes, but they will need more fre-
quent attention than usual. Raise
the Power Leve\ after entering the
tirrw by touching P0WE17 LEVEL

time in Yz;Power Level 10 cuts the
time to }<. During either, rotate or
stir food frequently.
Q. When Ipress START, Ihear a
dull thumping noise. What is it?
A. This sound is normal. It is letting
you know the oven is using a
Power Level Iowerthan HIGH.
Q. Why don’t the defrosting times
in the Cookbook seem right for my
food?
A. Cookbook times are average.
Defrosting time can vary according
to the temperature in your freezer.
Set your oven for the time in-
dicated in your Cookbook. If your
food is still not completely thawed
at the end of that time, re-set your
oven and adjust the time ac-
cordingly.
Q. Can Iopen the door during DE-
FROST to check on the progress
of my food?
A. Yes. You may open the door at
any time during microwaving. To
resume defrosting, close the door
and press START.
Q. Can iselect aPower Level other
than automatic Power Level 3for
defrosting?
A. Yes. Some smaller foods may be
defrosted quicker on higher Power
Levels but for even, carefree de-
frosting, Power Level 3is SUg-
gested. Check the chart in the
Cookbook for specific times and
Power Levels.

Q, Are there any foods !can’t
TEMF’ COOK?
A. Yes. Delicate butter icings, ice
cream, frozen whipped toppings,
etc., soften rapidly at warm tefnp-
eratures. Batters and doughs as
well as frozen foods are also diffi-
cult to cook precisely with the
probe. !t is best to TIME COOK
these foods.
Q. After Ifollowed the steps and
touched START, asignal sounded
and oven did not start. What is
wrong?
A. If you set the temperature either
below 80° or greater than 199° the
oven will not start. To re-enter,
touch CLEAFUOFF pad and begin
steps again.
Q. Oven sounded and would not
start although ientered the temp-
erature correctly. What is wrong?
A. If you have not securely seated
the end of the probe into the
receptacle in the oven wall, if you
touch TEMP COOK and have for-
gotten to use the probe or if the
actual food temperature is higher
than set temperature, oven will
sound and not start.
Q. Can Ileave my probe in the
oven if it’s not inserted in the food?
A. No. [f the probe is left inside the
oven, touching the oven wall, and
not inserted in food, you may dam-
age the oven.
Q. How do Iknow what tempera-
ture to set?
A. Your Cookbook contains sec-
tions on all types of foods showing
