Important Safety Instructions
Grounding
Instructions
Oven MUST be grounded. Grounding reduces risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current if an electrical short occurs. This oven
is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet
that is properly installed and grounded. See Installation
Instructions.
Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the oven is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord. If the product power
cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install a
three-slot receptacle. This oven should be plugged into
a separate 60 hertz circuit with the electrical rating as
shown in specifications table. When the oven is on a
circuit with other equipment, an increase in cooking
times may be required and fuses can be blown.
Microwave operates on standard household current, 110-
120V.
WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock or death, this oven
must be grounded and plug must not be altered.

Precautions to Avoid
Possible Exposure
to Excessive
Microwave Energy
A. DO NOT attempt to operate this oven with the door open
since open door operation can result in harmful exposure
to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or
tamper with the safety interlocks.
B. DO NOT place any object between the oven front
face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to
accumulate on sealing surfaces.
C. DO NOT operate the oven if it is damaged. It is
particularly important that oven door close properly and

3. door seals and sealing surfaces.
D. Oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone
except properly qualified service personnel.
WARNING
Liquids such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be
overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing 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 LIQUIDS 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 narrow necks.
4. After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing the
container.
5. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other
utensil into the container.

SENSOR OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Sensor Cook allows you to cook
most of your favorite foods without
selecting cooking times and power
levels. The display will indicate the
sensing period by scrolling the name
of the food. The oven automatically
determines required cooking time for
each food item. When the internal
sensor detects a certain amount of
gas coming from the food, it will tell
the oven how much longer to cook.
The display will show the remaining
heating time.
For best results when cooking
by Sensor, follow these
recommendations:
1. Food cooked with the sensor
system should be at normal
storage temperature.
2. Glass turntable and outside of
container should be dry to assure
best cooking results.
3. Most foods should always be
covered loosely with microwavable
plastic wrap, waxed paper, or a lid.
4. Do not open the door or touch
the STOP/CLEAR pad during the
sensing time. When sensing time
is over, the oven beeps and the
remaining cooking time will appear
in the display window. At this time
you can open the door to stir, turn,
or rearrange the food.
IMPORTANT:
When using sensor cook, the oven
must cool for 5 minutes between
uses or food will not cook properly.
SENSOR COOKING
GUIDE
Appropriate containers and coverings
help assure good Sensor cooking
results.
1. Always use microwavable con-
tainers and cover them with lids or
vented plastic wrap.
2. Never use tight-sealing plastic
Operating Instructions
covers. They can prevent steam
from escaping and cause food to
overcook.
3. Match the amount to the size of the
container. Fill containers at least
half full for best results.
4. Be 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.
NOTE :
If food is not thoroughly cooked or
reheated when using the sensor
feature, complete using a power
level and cooking time. DO NOT
continue using the sensor pad.
ADDING OR

the weight to be entered is the
net weight in pounds and tenths
of pounds (the weight of the food
minus the container).
• Use AUTO DEFROST only for raw
food. AUTO DEFROST gives best
Operating Instructions
AUTO DEFROST
Defrost choices are preset in the
oven. The defrost feature provides
you with the best defrosting method
for frozen foods, because the oven
automatically sets the defrosting
times according to the weight you
enter. For added convenience, the
AUTO DEFROST beeps to remind
you to check or turn over the food
during the defrost cycle.
After touching the AUTO DEFROST
pad once, select the food weight.
Available weight ranges are 0.1 to 6.0
lbs.
Example : To defrost 1.2 lbs of
meat.
1. Touch AUTO
DEFROST pad.
2. Enter the weight.
3. Touch ENTER/
START pad.
NOTES:
• After you touch ENTER/START
pad, the display counts down the
defrost time. The oven will beep
twice during the Defrost cycle. At
this time, open the door and turn
the food as needed. Remove any
portions that have thawed then
return frozen portions to the oven
and touch ENTER/START pad to
resume the defrost cycle.
• The oven will not stop during
the BEEP unless the door is
opened.
results when food to be thawed is a
minimum of 0°F (taken directly from
a true freezer). If food has been
stored in a refrigerator-freezer that
does not maintain a temperature
of 5°F or below, always program
a lower food weight (for a shorter
defrosting time) to prevent cooking
the food.
• If the food is stored outside the
freezer for up to 20 minutes, enter a
lower food weight.
• The shape of the package alters the
defrosting time. Shallow rectangular
packets defrost more quickly than a
deep block.
• Separate pieces as they begin to
defrost. Separated pieces defrost
more easily.
• Shield areas of food with small
pieces of foil if they start to become
warm.
• You can use small pieces of alu-
minum foil to shield foods like
chicken wings, leg tips, and fish tails,
but the foil must not touch the side of
the oven. Foil causes arcing, which
can damage the oven lining.
1POUND DEFROST
The 1POUND DEFROST feature
provides a rapid defrost for 1.0 pound
frozen food. The oven automatically
sets the defrosting time.
Example: To defrost 1lb. ground
beef.
1. Touch 1POUND
DEFROST pad.

WIRE RACK
CAUTION
To avoid risk of property damage:
● Do not use rack to pop popcorn.
● Rack must be on the four plastic
supports when used.
● Use the rack only when cooking
food on rack position.
● Do not cook with rack on floor of
the oven.
The wire rack gives you extra space
when cooking in more than one
container at the same time.
To use rack:
1. Place rack securely in the four
plastic supports.
• Rack MUST NOT touch metal
walls or back of microwave oven.
2. Place equal amounts of food both
ABOVE AND BELOW rack.
• Amount of food must be
approximately the same to
balance out cooking energy.
IMPORTANT:
• DO NOT store or use the wire
rack in this oven unless more
than one item is being cooked or
a recipe calls for it.
• Damage to the oven could occur.
GETTING THE BEST
COOKING RESULTS
To get the best results from your
microwave oven, read and follow the
guidelines below.
• Storage Temperature: Foods taken
from the freezer or refrigerator take
longer to cook than the same foods
at room temperature.
• Size: Small pieces of food cook
faster than large ones, pieces
similar in size and shape cook more
evenly. For even cooking, reduce the
power when cooking large pieces of
food.
• Natural Moisture: Very moist
foods cook more evenly because
microwave energy is attracted to
water molecules.
• Stir foods such as casseroles and
vegetables from the outside to the
center to distribute the heat evenly
and speed cooking. Constant stirring
is not necessary.
• Turn over foods like pork chops,
baking potatoes, roasts, or whole
cauliflower halfway through the
cooking time to expose all sides
equally to microwave energy.
• Place delicate areas of foods, such
as asparagus tips, toward the center
of the dish.
• Arrange unevenly shaped foods,
such as chicken pieces or salmon
steaks, with the thicker, meatier
parts toward the outside of the dish.
• Shield, with small pieces of
aluminum foil, parts of food that may
cook quickly, such as wing tips and
leg ends of poultry.
• Let It Stand: After you remove the
food from the microwave, cover food
with foil or casserole lid and let it
stand to finish cooking in the center
and avoid overcooking the outer
edges. The length of standing time
depends on the density and surface
area of the food.
• Wrapping in waxed paper or
paper towel: Sandwiches and many
other foods containing prebaked
bread should be wrapped prior to
microwaving to prevent drying out.
