Microwave Oven:
QRead and follow the specific
“PRECAUTIONS ~AVOID
POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE
ENERGY” found on page 3.
●Toreduce the risk of fire in the
oven cavity:
–Do not overcook food. Carefhlly
attend appliance if paper, plastic
or other combustible materials are
placed inside the oven to facilitate
cooking.
—Remove wire twist-ties from
paper or plastic bags before
placing bags in oven.
—Do not use your microwave oven
to dry newspapers.
–Paper towels,napkinsand
waxpaper.Recycled paper
products can contain metal flecks
which may cause arcing or ignite.
Paper products containing nylon
or nylon filaments should be
avoided, as they may also ignite.
–Do notpoppopcorninyour
microwaveovenunless inaspecial
microwave popcorn accessory or
unless you use popcorn labeled for
use in microwave ovens.
–Do notovercookpotatoes.
They could dehydrate and catch
fire, causing damage to your oven.
–Do notoperatetheovenwhile
emptytoavoiddamagetothe
ovenandthedangerof fire. If by
accident the oven should run
empty aminute or two, no harm is
done. However, try to avoid
operating the oven empty at all
times—it saves energy and
prolongs life ofthe oven.
—Ifmaterials inside the oven
should ignite, keep oven door
closed, turn oven off, and
disconnect the power cord, or shut
off power at the fuse or circuit
breaker panel.
●Some products such as whole
eggs and sealed containers-for
example, closed glassjars—may
explodeandshould not beheated
inthis oven.
cSeedoor surfacecleaning
instructions onpage41.
●Don’t defrost frozen beverages
innarrow-necked bottles (especially
carbonated beverages). Even if the
container is opened, pressure can
build up. This can cause the
container to burst, resulting in
injury.
.Usemetil only asdirectedin
cookbook. Foil strips as used on
meat roasts are helpfid when used
as shown in cookbook.
TV dinners maybe microwaved in
foil trays less than 3/4” high;
remove top foil cover and return
tray to box. When using metal in
microwaveoven, keepmetal(except
forDOUBLEDUTY shelf)
atleast 1inch awayfromsides
ofoven.
●Cookingutensilsmaybecome

fromthe heated food. This is
especially true ifplastic wraphas

ofthe utensil. Potholders maybe
neededto handle the utensil.
●Sometimes, the ovenfloor

●Donot use athermometer in

.Remove the temperature
probe from the oven when not
using it tocook with. If youleave
theprobe inside the ovenwithout

(see previous caution) shouldbe
pierced to allowsteam to escape

●PlasticUtensils-Plastic utensils
designed for microwavecooking are
very usefid, but should be used
carefully.Even microwaveplastic
may not be as tolerant of
overcookingconditionsas are
glass or ceramic materials and
may softenor char if subjectedto
short periods ofovercooking.In
longer exposuresto overcooking,
the foodand utensilscould ignite.
For these reasons: 1)Use
microwaveplastics only and use
them in strict compliance with
the utensil manufacturer’s
recommendations. 2) Do not

IL+:microwaving.3) Do notpermit
children to use plastic utensils
without complete supervision.

and tightly closed plasticbags
should be slit, pierced or vented
as directed in cookbook. If they

Eneqgy-Saving Tips
●Use proper power level as
recommended and DO N~
OVERCOOK.
QDo not operate the oven while
empty. If b~accident the oven
should run empty aminute or two,
no harm is done. However, try to
avoidoperating the oven empty at
all times—saves energy and also
ensuresgood, long-term lifeofoven.
●Preheat the ovenonly when
necessary. Most foods will cook
satisfactorily without preheating.
If you find preheating is necessary,
keep an eye on the indicator light,
and put food in the oven promptly
after the light goes out.
●Alwaysturn oven OFF before
removing food.
●During baking, avoid frequent
door openings. Keep door open as
short atime as possible when it is
opened.
●For self-cleaning oven, be sure
to wipe up excess spillage before
self-cleaning operation.
●Cook complete oven meals
instead of just one food item.
Potatoes, other vegetables, and
some desserts will cook together
with amain-dish casserole, meat
loaf, chicken or roast. Choose
foods that cook at the same
temperature in approximately
the same time.
Microwaving Tips
QMake 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 ametallic
sheen can be used. Some cookware
is labeled “suitable for Microwaving?
If you are unsure, use this dish test:
Measure 1cup water in aglass cup.
Place in oven on or beside dish.
Microwave 1minute at HIGH. If
water becomes hot, dish is microwave
safe. If dish heats, it should not be
used for microwaving.
●Paper towels, wax paper, and
plastic wrap can be used to cover
dishes in order to retain moisture
and prevent spattering.
●Some microwaved foods require
stirring, rotating, or rearranging.
Check your cookbook for specific
instructions.
●Steam builds up pressure in foods
which are tightly covered by askin
or membrane. Pierce potatoes, egg
yolks and chicken livers to prevent
bursting.
When Power is
Connected to
the Oven
The panel displays all of the
oven fimctions. After 15seconds,
all lights disappear and “Reset”
appears in the display. Touch the
CLEAR/OFF pad and then touch
CLOCK pad and set the clock.
The clock must be set for the timer
functions to work.
If power is disrupted at any time,
the above sequence reoccurs and
you must reset the clock after
touching CLEAR/OFF.
●Use residual heat in oven
whenever possible to finish
cooking casseroles, oven meals,
etc. Also add rolls or precooked
desserts to warm oven, using
residual heat to warm them.

Questions and Answers
Q. What will happen if I
accidentally reverse my defrost,

A. Yes.Sometimes you may only
want to defrost afood, 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.
