~Read and follow the specific
‘PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID
POSSIBLE EXPOSURETO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE
ENERGY” found on page 2.
~To reduce the risk of fire in
the oven cavity:
—Do not overcook food. Care-
fully attend appliance if paper,
plastic, or other combustible
materials are placed inside the
ovento facilitate cooking.
—Remove wire twist-ties from
paper or plastic bags before
placing bag in oven.
—Do not use your microwave
oven to dry newspapers.
—Paper towels and napkins,
wax paper. Recycled paper
products can contain metal
fiecks which may cause arcing
or ignite. Paper products con-
taining nylon or nylon filaments
shouid be avoided, asthey may
aiso ignite.
—Do not pop popcorn in your
oven uniessin a

popcorn labeled for use in
microv~ave ovens.
—Do notqxwaw?the Owen while

accident the oven shouid run
empty aminute or two, no harm
is done. However, try to avoid
operating the oven empty at aii
times—it savesenergy and pro-
iongs iife of the oven.
—If materiais inside the oven
should ignite, keep oven door
ciosed, turn oven off, and dis-
connect the power cord, or shut
off power at the fuse or circuit
breaker panel.
~Some products such as
whoie eggs and seaiedcon-
tainers—for exampie, ciosed
giass jars—may expiode and
should not be heated in this
oven.
~Avoid heating baby food in
glass jars, even without their
iids; especially meatand egg
mixtures.
@Seedoor surface cieaning
instructions on page 20.
~Don’%defrost frozenbever-
ages in narrow necked botties;
especially carbonated ones.
Evenif the container is opened,
pressure can buiid up. This can
causethe container to burst,
resuiting in injury.
49 Use metal only asdirectediin
OxW.mok. Metai strips as used
on meat, roasts are heipfui when
used as shown in Cookbook.
TV dinners may be cooked in
metai trays but when using sheif
they must be repiaced in their
box. However, when using metai
in microwave oven, keep metal
(except for DOUBLE !DLJTYTM
shelf) a?least “1-inchaway from
sides of oven.
~Cooking utensils may
become hot becauseof heat
transferred from the heated
food. This is especially true if
piastic wrap has been covering
the top and hanc!iesof the
utensii. Potholders may be
needed to handie the utensii.

Tips
@Foods frozen in paper or
plastic can be defrosted in the
package.
@For even defrosting, many
foods need to be broken up or
separated part of the way through
the defrosting time. Z==—
@Homemade dinners can be
frozen in shallow foil trays and
heated for later use. (Do not heat
on metal shelf). Select foods
which microwave well.
@Pre-packaged frozen dinners
can be defrosted and microwave
cooked, but foil tray must be
returned to box before cooking
on metal shelf.
@Check your Cookbook for
other defrosting tips.
G!.When Ipress START, Ihear a
dull ~humping noise. What is it?
A. This sound is normal. It is letting
you know the oven is using a
Power Level iower than HIGH.
Q. Can iDefrost small iterns in a
hurry?
A. Yes, but they will need more
frequeniattention than usual. Raise
the Power Level after entering the
time by touching POWER LEVEL
and 7 or 10. Power Level 7cuts the
time about in 1/2; Power Level IO
cuts the time to approximately 1/3.
During either, rotate or stir food
frequenlly.
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. 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 Iselect a-Power 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,

@Use alower power level setting;
it will heat more evenly even
though requiring more time.
@Be sure frozen food has been
completely defrosted before insert-
ing probe. Probe may break off if
used in frozen foods.
@Always insert probe into the
center of meaty areas; take care
not to touch the fat or the bone.
@Insert probe as horizontally as
possible into foods as directed in
the recipes. Make sure the handle
does not touch the food.
@Use the clip to keep the probe
in place while heating.
@Cover foods as directed in
Cookbook for moisture control and
quick, even heating.
Q, Are there any foods Ican’t
TEWIP COOK?
A. Yes. Delicate butter icings, ice
cream, frozen whipped toppings,
etc., soften rapi”diy a?warm tempe-
ratures. Batters and doughs as
weiIas frozen foods are also diffi-
CIJII to COOK precisely with the
probe. It is best to TIME COCJK
iI-!esefoods.
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 gredter than 199° the
oven will not start. To re-enter,
touch CLEAR/OFF 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 th~ probe into the
re~eptacle in the oven wall, if YOU
touch TEI’vIPC(XJK 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. If the probe is left inside the
oven, touching the oven wall, and
not inserted in food, you may c@n-
age the oven.
Q. t-low do Iknow what tempera-
ture to set?
A. Your Cookbook contains sec-
tions on all types of foods showing
the temperatures needed to cook
the foods to different degrees of
doneness. For reheating, refer to
Reheating Charts in the front
of the Cookbook for specific
temperatures.

What happened?
A. When instructions conflict, the
oven carries out the last instruc-
tion. You may have set the oven to
Defrost for 4minutes, Hold/Time

Cook .‘TM *
The Cook CodeTMcontrol provides ashort-cut
method for entering time and the Power Level 017
your microwave oven. Cooking Codes are only used
for recipes which need little or no attention, and
which require no change of power level during cook-
ing. Recipes which require additional ingredients,
attention or change in power ieve[ during micro-
waving should be cooked in the usual manner. Also,
recipes with cooking time of less than one minute or
more than 99 minutes can not use Cooking Codes.
To understand the Cook Code control, it is impor-
tant to know what the numbers mean and what the
sequence is. The first and second numbers, if set-
ting a 3 digit Cooking Code, indicate the amount of
time you desire; the last control entry number is
always the Power Level. For example, 125 means
12 minutes at Power Level 5. NOTE: Your oven can
only be programmed to 99 minutes when using the
Cook Code control and the highest Power Level is
10 which is represented by “O”. When setting a
2digit Cook Code control entry, the first is time, the
second is power level. For example, 50 means
5minutes at Power Level 10.
On the following page is shown many frequently
prepared foods and their codes. It’s easy, though,
to make Cooking Codes for many other recipes.
Just select one or two digits representing the length
of cooking time desired, and a final digit for the
Power Level required. The Cooking Codes given on
the chart are for the minimum time needed, to avoid
overcooking which can dry out food and make it
tasteless and tough. If you feel that more cooking is
needed, add additional time by changing the first
digit of the Code. You cannot add seconds to the
cycle time—Cooking Codes are for whole minutes
only. If your recipe calis for Power Level changes or
different amounts of time needed between addition
of ingredients, you may set one Cooking Code for
the first part of the recipe, then after completion, set
another Cooking Code for that period of time and
Power Level.
Remember that Cooking Codes are for micro-
waving by time only. If you are microwaving by
temperature, you must use the Temp Cook or Auto
Roast function.

Your oven is designed to give you the best results in
baking, broiling, and roasting when used as recom-
mended. Before using your oven, look at the direc-
tions for setting and using all of the controls and
timer.
Light comes on automatically when door is opened
or use switch on window door to turn it on when
door is closed.
When the shelves are correctly placed on shelf sup-
ports they are designed with stop-locks to prevent
them from coming out of the oven or tilting when
food is placed on them. TO REMOVE, lift up rear of
shelf and pull forward with stop-locks along top of
shelf support. TO REPLACE, insert shelf with stop-
Iocks resting on shelf supports and push toward
rear of oven until it falls into correct position under
shelf support.
Oven Timer Controls are designed
to automatically start and stop cer-
tain oven functions (TIME BAKE
or CLEAN). Dials are timed by a
special Clock with index marks

Leave the pan outside the oven to
cool during the meal for easy
cleaning.
@Foil may be used to line the
broiler pan and rack. However,
be sure to cut openings in the
foil to correspond with the slits
in the broiler rack so fat drips
into the pan below.
For all weights of chicken, broil
with door closed.
Placing food closer to the top
of the oven increases smoking,
spattering, exterior browning
on the meat and the possibility
of food fat catching on fire. Al-
ways keep rack 3-5 inches
from the broiling unit.
Step 1: Check the weight of the
meat and place, fat side up, on the
rack in the broiler pan that came
with your oven. This helps the
meat to baste itself.

Be sure meat is cooked to your
satisfaction. Most meats con-
tinue to cook slightly while
standing after being removed
from the oven. This should be
taken into ~consideration when
determining your cooking time.
Always use aroasting pan that
fits the size of your meat. A
roast placed in a pan too small
for its size will drip over the
edge.
You may cook frozen meat
roasts without thawing. How-
ever, you must allow more
cooking time, For large roasts,
add 10-25 minutes per pound.
For roasts under 5pounds, add
10 minutes per pound.
To slow down surface browning
on turkeys, you can use afoil
“tent”. The tent-shaped foil
should be laid loosely over the
poultry so the heat can circulate
under the foil.
Most frozen poultry should be
thawed before cooking to en-
sure it is done evenly, Some,
however, can be cooked suc-
cessfully without thawing.
Check the packer’s label for
specific directions.
