IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Recognize this symbol as a SAFETY message
Liquids such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be
overheated beyond the boiling point without appear-
ing to be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid.
Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is
removed from the microwave oven is not always
present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQ-
UIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN A
SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO
THE LIQUID . To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
1. Do not overheat the liquid.
2. Stir the liquid both before and halfway through
heating it.
3. Do not use straight-sided containers with nar-
row necks.
4. After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before remov-
ing the container.
5. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or
other utensil into the container.
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage,
observe the following:
1. Do not deep fat fry in oven. Fat could overheat
and be hazardous to handle.
2. Do not cook or reheat eggs in shell or with an
unbroken yolk using microwave energy.
Pressure may build up and erupt. Pierce yolk
with fork or knife before cooking.
3. Pierce skin of potatoes, tomatoes, and similar
foods before cooking with microwave energy.
When skin is pierced, steam escapes evenly.
4. Do not operate oven without load or food in
oven cavity.
5. Use only popcorn in packages designed and
labeled for microwave use. Popping time varies
depending on oven wattage. Do not continue to
heat after popping has stopped. Popcorn will
scorch or burn. Do not leave oven unattended.
6. Do not use regular cooking thermometers in

Installation
➣To avoid risk of electrical
shock or death, this oven
must be grounded.
➣To avoid risk of electrical
shock or death, do not alter
the plug.
WARNING
Grounding Ins ruc ions
Oven MUST be grounded.
Grounding reduces risk of electric
shock by providing an escape ire
for the electric current if an electrical
short occurs. This oven is equipped
ith a cord having a grounding ire
ith a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into an outlet that is prop-
erly installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or ser-
vicer if grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to hether the oven is prop-
erly grounded.
Do no use an ex ension cord. If
the product po er cord is too short,
have a qualified electrician install a
three-slot receptacle. This oven
should be plugged into a separate 60
hertz circuit ith the electrical rating
as sho n in specifications table.
When the micro ave oven is on a cir-
cuit ith other equipment, an
increase in cooking times may be
required and fuses can be blo n.
Micro ave operates on standard
household voltage, 110-120V.
CIRCUITS
For safety purposes this oven must
be plugged into a 15 or 20 Amp
circuit. No other electrical appliances
or lighting circuits should be on this
line. If in doubt, consult a licensed
electrician.
VOLTAGE
The voltage used at the all recepta-
cle must be the same as specified on
the oven name plate located on the
front of oven cavity. Use of a higher
voltage is dangerous and may result
in a fire or other type of accident
causing oven damage. Lo voltage
ill cause slo cooking. In case your
micro ave oven does not perform
normally in spite of proper voltage,
remove and reinsert the plug.
DO NOT BLOCK
AIR VENTS
All air vents should be kept clear dur-
ing cooking. If air vents are covered
during oven operation the oven may
overheat. In this case, a sensitive
thermal safety device automatically
turns the oven off. The oven ill be
inoperable until it has cooled suffi-
ciently.
UNPACKING OVEN
• Inspect oven for damage such as
dents in door or inside oven cavity.
• Report any dents or breakage to
source of purchase immediately.
Do no a emp o use oven if
damaged.
• Remove all materials from oven
interior.
• If oven has been stored in extreme-
ly cold area, ait a fe hours
before connecting po er.
Ensure proper ground
exists before use

Other Helpful Information
GETTING THE BEST
RESULTS FROM YOUR
MICROWAVE OVEN
Keep an eye on hings. The
ins ruc ions in his book have
been formula ed wi h grea care,
but your success in preparing food
depends, of course, on ho much
attention you pay to the food as it
cooks. Al ays atch your food hile
it cooks. Your micro ave oven is
equipped ith a light that turns on
automatically hen the oven is in
operation so that you can see inside
and check the progress of your
recipe. Directions given in recipes to
elevate, stir, and the like should be
thought of as the minimum steps rec-
ommended. If the food seems to be
cooking unevenly, simply make the
necessary adjustments you think
appropriate to correct the problem.
Fac ors affec ing cooking imes.
Many factors affect cooking times.
The temperature of ingredients used
in a recipe makes a big difference in
cooking times. For example, a cake
made ith ice-cold butter, milk, and
eggs ill take considerably longer to
bake than one made ith ingredients
that are at room temperature. All of
the recipes in this book give a range
of cooking times. In general, you ill
find that the food remains under-
cooked at the lo er end of the time
range, and you may sometimes ant
to cook your food beyond the maxi-
mum time given, according to per-
sonal preference. The governing phi-
losophy of this book is that it is best
for a recipe to be conservative in giv-
ing cooking times. While under-
cooked food may al ays be cooked
a bit more, overcooked food is ruined
for good. Some of the recipes, partic-
ularly those for bread, cakes, and
custard, recommend that food be
removed from the oven hen they
are slightly undercooked. This is not
a mistake. When allo ed to stand,
usually covered, these foods ill con-
tinue to cook outside of the oven as
the heat trapped ithin the outer por-
tions of the foods gradually travels
in ard. If the foods are left in the
oven until they are cooked all the ay
through, the outer portions ill
become overcooked or even burned.
As you gain experience in using your
micro ave oven, you ill become
increasingly skillful in estimating both
cooking and standing times for vari-
ous foods.
SPECIAL TECHNIQUES
IN MICROWAVE
COOKING
Browning: Meats and poultry that
are cooked fifteen minutes or longer
ill bro n lightly in their o n fat.
Foods that are cooked for a shorter
period of time may be brushed ith a
bro ning sauce to achieve an appe-
tizing color. The most commonly
used bro ning sauces are
Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce,
and barbecue sauce. Since relatively
small amounts of bro ning sauces
are added to foods, the original flavor
of recipes is not altered.
Covering: A cover traps heat and
steam and causes food to cook more
quickly. You may either use a lid or
micro ave cling-film ith a corner
folded back to prevent splitting.
Covering wi h waxed paper:
Waxed paper effectively prevents
spattering and helps food retain
some heat. Since it makes a looser
cover than a lid or cling-film, it allo s
the food to dry out slightly.
Wrapping in waxed paper or paper
owel: Sand iches and many other
foods containing prebaked bread
should be rapped prior to
micro aving to prevent drying out.
Arranging and spacing: Individual
foods such as baked potatoes, small
cakes, and hors d’oeuvres ill heat
more evenly if placed in the oven and
equal distance apart, preferably in a
circular pattern. Never stack foods on
top of one another.
S irring: Stirring is one of the most
important of all micro aving tech-
niques. In conventional cooking,
foods are stirred for the purpose of
blending. Micro aved foods, ho ev-
er, are stirred in order to spread and
redistribute heat. Al ays stir from the
outside to ards the center as the
outside food heats first.
Turning over: Large, tall foods such
as roasts and hole chickens should
be turned so that the top and bottom
ill cook evenly. It is also a good idea
to turn cutup chicken and chops.
Placing hicker por ions near he
edge: Since micro aves are attract-
ed to the outside portion of foods, it
makes sense to place thicker por-
tions of meat, poultry and fish to the
outer edge of the baking dish. This
ay, thicker portions ill receive the
most micro ave energy and the
foods ill cook evenly.
Eleva ing: Thick or dense foods are
often elevated so that micro aves
can be absorbed by the underside
and center of the foods.
Piercing: Foods enclosed in a shell,
skin, or membrane are likely to burst
in the oven unless they are pierced
prior to cooking. Such foods include
both yolks and hites of eggs, clams
and oysters, and many hole veg-
etables and fruits.
Tes ing if cooked: Because foods
cook so quickly in a micro ave oven,
it is necessary to test food frequently.
Some foods are left in the micro ave
until completely cooked, but most
foods, including meats and poultry,
are removed from the oven hile still
slightly undercooked and allo ed to
finish cooking during standing time.
The internal temperature of foods ill
rise bet een 5° F (3° C) and 15° F
(8° C) during standing time.

7
S anding ime: Foods are often
allo ed to stand for 3 to 10 minutes
after being removed from the
micro ave oven. Usually the foods
are covered during standing time to
retain heat unless they are supposed
to be dry in texture (some cakes and
biscuits, for example). Standing
allo s foods to finish cooking and
also helps flavors to blend and devel-
op.
HOW FOOD
CHARACTERISTICS
AFFECT MICROWAVE
COOKING
Densi y of foods: Light, porous food
like cakes and breads cook more
quickly than heavy, dense foods such
as roasts and casseroles. You must
take care hen micro aving porous
foods that the outer edges do not
become dry and brittle.
Heigh of foods: The upper portion
of tall foods, particularly roasts, ill
cook more quickly than the lo er por-
tion. Therefore, it is ise to turn tall
foods during cooking, sometimes
several times.
Mois ure con en of foods: Since
the heat generated from micro aves
tends to evaporate moisture, relative-
ly dry foods such as roasts and some
vegetables should either be sprinkled
ith ater prior to cooking or covered
to retain moisture.
Bone and fa con en of foods:
Bones conduct heat and fat cooks
more quickly than meat. Therefore,
care must be taken hen cooking
bony or fatty cuts of meat that the
meats do not cook unevenly and do
not become overcooked.
NOTE: It is a common misconception
that micro aves cook food from the
inside out. This comes from heating
filled pastries ith a high sugar con-
tent, like jelly doughnuts. The pastry
is cool but the filling is very hot! If you
cook a chicken or a roast, you’ll see
the outside is cooked first.
Shape of foods: Micro aves pene-
trate only about 1 inch (2.5cm) into
foods; the interior portion of thick
foods is cooked as the heat generat-
ed on the outside travels in ard. In
other ords, only the outer edge of
any food is actually cooked by
micro ave energy; the rest is cooked
by conduction.
It follo s then that the orst possible
shape for a food that is to be
micro aved is a thick cube. The cor-
ners ill burn long before the center
is even arm. Round, thin, and ring
shaped foods cook most successful-
ly in the micro ave.
Quan i y of foods: The number of
micro aves in your oven remains
constant regardless of ho much
food is being cooked. Therefore, the
more food you place in the oven, the
longer the cooking time. Remember
to decrease cooking times by at least
one-third hen halving a recipe.

Cooking Utensils
To avoid risk of personal injury or property damage, do not use stone are, aluminum foil, metal utensils, or metal
trimmed utensils in the oven.
CAUTION
MICROWAVE-SAFE
UTENSILS
Never use me al or me al- rimmed
u ensils in your microwave oven:
Micro aves cannot penetrate metal.
They ill bounce off any metal object
in the oven and cause arcing, an
alarming phenomenon that resem-
bles lightning. Most heat-resistant
non-metallic cooking utensils are
safe for use in your micro ave oven.
Ho ever, some may contain materi-
als that render them unsuitable as
micro ave cook are. If you have
any doubts about a particular utensil,
there is a simple ay to find out if it
can be used in your micro ave oven.
Tes ing u ensils for microwave
use: Place the utensil in question
next to a glass bo l filled ith ater
in the micro ave oven. Micro ave at
po er HIGH for 1 minute. If the ater
heats up but the utensil remains cool
to the touch, the utensil is
micro ave-safe. Ho ever, if the
ater does not change temperature
but the utensil becomes arm,
micro aves are being absorbed by
the utensil and it is not safe for use in
the micro ave oven. You probably
have many items on hand in your
kitchen that can be used as cooking
equipment in your micro ave oven.
Just read through the follo ing
checklist.
1. Dinner pla es: Many kinds of
dinner are are micro ave-safe.
If in doubt, consult the manu-
facturer's literature or perform
the micro ave test, above.
2. Glassware: Glass are that is
heat-resistant is micro ave-
safe. This includes all brands of
oventempered glass cook are.
Ho ever, do not use delicate
glass are, such as tumblers or
ine glasses, as these might
shatter as the food arms.
3. Paper: Paper pla es and con-
ainers are convenien and
safe o use in your microwave
oven, provided he cooking
ime is shor and foods o be
cooked are low in fa and
mois ure. Paper to els are also
very useful for rapping foods
and for lining baking trays in
hich greasy foods, such as
bacon, are cooked. In general,
avoid colored paper products as
the color may run.
4. Plas ic s orage con ainers:
These can be used to hold foods
that are to be quickly reheated.
Ho ever, they should not be
used to hold foods that ill need
considerable time in the oven as
hot foods ill eventually arp or
melt plastic containers.
5. Plas ic cooking bags: These
are micro ave-safe provided
they are specially made for
cooking. Ho ever, be sure o
make a sli in he bag so that
steam can escape. Never use
ordinary plastic bags for cooking
in your micro ave oven, as they
ill melt and rupture.
6. Plas ic microwave cookware:
A variety of shapes and sizes of
micro ave cook are is avail-
able. For the most part, you can
probably cook ith items you
already have on hand rather
than investing in ne kitchen
equipment.
7. Po ery, s oneware and
ceramic: Containers made of
these materials are usually fine
for use in your micro ave oven,
but they should be tested to be
sure.
