OPERATION SENSOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS ADDING OR SUBTRACTING COOK Sensor cook allows you to cook most of your favorite foods without selecting cooking times and power levels. The display will indicate SENSOR during the sensing period. The oven automatically determines required cooking time for each food item. When the initial sensor detects a certain amount of vapor coming from the food, it will show the remaining heating time. For best results by sensor, following these recommendations. TIME(SENSOR COOK, POPCORN and SENSOR REHEAT) If the preset cooking time is too long or too short you can increase or decrease cooking time by 10% after choosing one of the following functions. To adjust the sensor cook, reheat or popcorn. 1. Food cooked with the sensor system should be at normal storage temperature. 2. Foods should always be covered loosely with microwavable plastic warp, waxed paper, or a lid. 3. Do not open the door or touch STOP/CLEAR key 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. SENSOR COOKING GUIDE Appropriate containers and coverings help assure good sensor cooking results. 1. Always use microwavable containers. 2. Never use tight-sealing plastic covers. They can prevent steam from escaping and cause food to overcook. 3. Match the amount of food and the size of containers. 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 turing into steam can mislead the sensor. COOK 1 Touch COOK. Example for setting for cook. Touch the number for the category you want. Example for setting 1
(Beverage). You can only increase or decrease cooking time before cooking starts. 9 Touch 9 , then MORE will blink. Example: To increase time by 10%. Cook Time & Blink Touch Pad Number LESS NORMAL MORE 7 8 9
*NORMAL: To reset the original cook time. You do not need to touch START. 3 seconds after touching the pad, the oven begins cooking automatically.

OPERATION POPCORN POPCORN lets you pop commercially packaged microwave popcorn. Pop only one package at a time. Do not double quantity. For best results, use fresh bags of popcorn. To pop popcorn. STOP CLEAR Touch STOP/CLEAR. POPCORN Touch POPCORN. You do not need to touch START. 3 seconds after touching the pad, the oven begins cooking automatically. NOTE:
G Place the popcorn bag on the bottom of the oven. G Do not place the bag on the paper or plastic cookware or on turntables which are not an original part of the oven. G Do not leave the oven unattended while popping corn. G Remove the bag from the oven carefully. The popcorn and steam are extremely hot. Open the bag carefully by pulling the diagonal corners. G Do not reheat unpopped kernels or re-use the bag. G Never popcorn in brown paper bag. G When using Jumbo prepackaged popcorn bags, follow the manufacturers directions. Do not use the POPCORN pad. G Cooking performance may vary with brand. Try several brands to decide which gives best popping results. SENSOR COOK SENSOR COOK lets you cook common microwave prepared foods without needing to program times and cook powers. A sensor in your oven detects the vapor released by the food, and the amount vapor detected tells oven how long to cook your food. SENSOR COOK has preset cook powers for seven categories: Beverage, Baked Potato, Frozen Entree, Casserole, Baked Goods, Fresh Vegetables, Frozen Vegetables. All you do is touch the NUMBER Pad assigned to the desired category(See COOKING GUIDE FOR SENSOR COOK.) and you do not need to touch START. To use the SENSOR COOK. STOP CLEAR COOK 1 Touch STOP/CLEAR. Touch COOK. Touch the number for the category you want. Example for setting 1(Beverage). You do not need to touch START. 3 seconds after touching the pad, the oven begins cooking automatically. AUTO REHEAT
(ROOM TEMP or FROZEN TEMP) Most microwave ovens require the selection of the power level and time for cooking or reheating. Your new oven makes reheating foods more convenient. A sensor in your oven detects the vapor released by the food, and the amount of vapor detected tells the oven how long to heat your food. To reheat food that is at room temperature, touch ROOM TEMP. To reheat food that is frozen, touch FROZEN TEMP. To reheat foods, simply follow the steps below. Touch STOP/CLEAR. Touch ROOM TEMP or FROZEN TEMP you want. STOP CLEAR ROOM TEMP FROZEN TEMP The oven will begin heating automatically. ROOM (or FROZEN) will display and the remaining time will begin counting down.

FROZEN ENTREE CASSEROLE BAKED GOODS Use the original package of frozen entree, and follow the package directions. But if the cover is film, perforate the film instead of removing it. (Don't remove the cover wholly.) Place the food in microproof bowl or glass casserole. Cover tightly with plastic wrap. Use microwave safe paper plate or towels. One serving is 1 to 2 doughnuts, 1 roll, 1 muffin, etc. Place on a paper towel. No cover. FRESH VEGETABLES Use small bowl. Cover with microwave safe plastic wrap. FROZEN VEGETABLES Place frozen vegetable in microproof bowl or glass casserole. Add water and cover with plastic wrap. NOTE: Most vegetables improve with 2 to 3 minutes standing time after cooking.
- 15 -
OPERATION AUTO DEFROST Your microwave oven is preset with three defrost sequences(MEAT, POULTRY and FISH). The Auto Defrost method is the best way to defrost frozen foods. Prepare the food for defrosting:
G Place the food in a flat, shallow baking dish or use a microwave roasting in the dish to catch drippings. G Pierce meats with a casing, such as hot dogs and sausage, to allow steam to escape. G Cover fatty or thin areas of meat with a small amount of foil before defrosting to prevent them from cooking. During the defrosting cycle, remember:
G Check the food. If items open cook at the edges when defrosting, reduce the weight you set. G Be sure to turn, stir or rotate the food as directed. After defrosting, remember:
G Pierce dense roasts with a skewer to check whether defrosting is complete. G Remove the giblets from poultry and rinse ice crystals out of cavity. AUTO DEFROST INSTRUCTIONS To set Auto Defrost.
(Example: To set 2.5 lbs. of ground beef) STOP CLEAR MEAT 2 5 Touch STOP/CLEAR.
(Erase all previous settings.) Touch MEAT.
(ENTER and WEIGHT will blink.) Enter the Weight of food. MIN. Food: 0.1 lb. MAX. Food: 9.9 lbs. START Touch START. Count down the time of the first stage. Five long beeps sound at the end of the first stage. Open the door to separate, rearrange, cover or turn oven the food.(Follow recipe directions.) START Touch START to continue. At the end of the sequence, two short beeps and one long beep will sound and END displays. Weight conversion chart You are probably used to food weights being in pounds and ounces that are fractions of a pound (for example 4 ounces equals 1/4 pound). However, in order to enter food weight in AUTO DEFROST, you must specify pounds and tenths of a pound. If the weight on the food package is in fractions of a pound, you can use the following chart to convert the weight to decimals. EQUIVALENT OUNCE WEIGHT NUMBER AFTER DECIMAL 1.6 3.2 4.0 4.8 6.4 8.0 9.6 11.2 12.0 12.8 14.4 16.0 One-Quarter Pound One-Half Pound

.100 One Pound Three-Quarters Pound DEFROSTING TIPS G When using AUTO DEFROST, the weight to be entered is the net weight in pounds and tenths of pounds (the weight of the food minus the container). G Use AUTO DEFROST only for raw food. AUTO DEFROST gives best results when food to be thawed is a minimum of 0F(taken directly from a true freezer). If food has been stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a temperature of 5F or below, always program a lower food weight(for a shorter defrosting time) to prevent cooking the food. G If the food is stored outside the freezer for up to 20 minutes, enter a lower food weight. G The shape of the package alters the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular packets defrost more quickly than a deep block. G Separate pieces as they begin to defrost. Separated pieces defrost more easily. G You can use small pieces of aluminum 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. G Shield areas of food with small pieces of foil if they start to become warm. G For better results, a preset standing time is included in the defrosting time.

GENERAL GUIDELINES The benefit of this AUTO DEFROST feature is automatic setting and control of defrosting. But, just as in conventional defrosting, you must check the food during the defrosting time. Here are some important tips to remember about defrosting. For best results when defrosting, remember :
G Do not defrost less than 1/4 lb. of ground beef. G Freeze ground beef in a doughnut shape. G Press down the center of ground beef patties before freezing. G Meats, fish or poultry up to 6 lbs. defrost best. G To reduce moisture loss, defrost meats just before cooking. G To defrost convenience foods, follow package directions. To prepare the item for defrosting, remember :
Remove the packaging. NOTE : If the package is microwavable, pierce the package several times. G Note the weight of the item on the package. G When you calculate the weight of the item, round it to the nearest lower decimal.(See the weight conversion chart.) G Remove metal twist ties from the packaging. G For best results, remove meat, poultry, and fish from the original wrapper. The wrapper can hold steam and juice close to the food and cause the outer surface to cook. G If removing the wrapper is difficult, defrost the wrapped food for about 1/4 of the defrosting time
(displayed at the beginning of the defrost cycle). Then remove the food from the oven and remove the wrapping. Return the food to the oven and touch START.

Place in a microwavable baking dish. OPERATION CONVECTION COOKING INTRODUCTION Convection ovens are not new. They have been a favorite of professional bakers for many years. Both conventional and convection ovens cook food with heat generated by gas or electricity. In a conventional oven, air remains stationary; the heat rises to the top of the oven and is not evenly distributed throughout the oven interior. In a convection oven, a fan circulates the warm air. The continuous flow of warm air around food in a convection oven causes it to be cooked more evenly and somewhat faster than it can be cooked by motionless air in a conventional oven. Convection cooking, with its circulating hot, dry air, is a superb cooking method for baked goods, roasts, poultry and other foods that require a crisp, browned surface. Your oven uses convection cooking whenever you use the Convection Command Pads. G Do not cover baking rack with aluminum foil. It interferes with the flow of air that cooks the food. G Round pizza pans are excellent cooking utensils for many convection-only items. Choose pans that do not have extended handles. G Use convection cooking for items like souffles, breads, cookies, angel food cakes, pizza, and for some meat and fish cooking. G You do not need to use any special techniques to adapt your favorite oven recipes to convection cooking; however, you may need to lower some temperatures or reduce some cooking times from the convection oven cooking directions. G When baking cakes, cookies, breads, rolls or other baked foods, most recipes call for preheating. Preheat the empty oven just as you do a regular oven. You can start heavier dense foods such as meats, casseroles, and poultry without preheating. G All heatproof cookware or metal utensils can be used in convection cooking. G As in conventional cooking, the distance of the food from the heat source affects cooking results. G Use metal utensils only for convection cooking. Never use for microwave or combination cooking since arcing and damage to the oven may occur. G After preheating, if you do not open the door, the oven will automatically hold at the preheated temperature for 30 minutes. G You can set up to three convection cycles.
(Example for two crust pies: you can set the oven to preheat for baking at 425F and to finish baking at 350F.)

OPERATION COMBINATION COOKING INTRODUCTION Some foods benefit from the combination of cooking by microwave energy and convection heat. This combination method allows you to take advantage of the speed moisture retention of microwave cooking and the crisping and browning effect of hot, dry air. For example, microwave energy will speed cooking and keep meat and poultry moist on the inside while convection heat crisps and browns the surface. When you use the micro/convection method, your oven will alternate automatically back and forth between both cooking methods and the results will delight and amaze you. Your oven has two preprogrammed settings that make it easy to cook with both convection heat and
MICROWAVE CONVECTION COMBINATION
(MICROWAVE/CONVECTION) microwave energy automatically. All utensils used for micro/convection cooking must be BOTH microwaveproof and heatproof. Oven-
tempered heatproof glass, china, and pottery that do not have metal trim or glaze are the best choice. THE METAL RACK MAY BE USED IN COMBINATION COOKING ONLY WHEN SPECIFICALLY INDICATED IN A RECIPE. However, METAL PANS MUST NEVER BE PLACED ON THE METAL RACK IN COMBINATION COOKING. If any metal touches the metal rack during a microwave cycle, arcing may occur and your oven may be damaged. G Meats may be roasted directly on the Metal Rack or in a shallow roasting pan placed on the rack. When using the Metal Rack, please check the manual for information on proper use. G Less tender cuts of beef can be roasted and tenderized using oven cooking bags. G When baking, check for doneness after cooking time is up. If not completely done, let stand in oven for a few minutes to complete cooking. NOTE: During combination baking, some baking utensils may cause arcing when they come in contact with the oven walls or metal racks. Arcing is a discharge of electricity that occurs when microwaves come in contact with metal. If arcing occurs, place a heatproof dish between the pan and the Metal Rack. If arcing occurs with other baking utensils, stop using them for combination cooking.

CARE AND CLEANING GENERAL For best performance and safety, keep the oven clean inside and outside. Take special care to keep the inner door panel and the oven front frame free of food or grease build-up. NEVER USE ROUGH POWDERS OR PADS. Wipe the microwave oven inside and out, including the hood bottom cover, with a soft cloth and a warm (not hot) mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe dry. Use a chrome cleaner and polish on chrome, metal and aluminum surfaces. Wipe spatters immediately with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking chicken or bacon. Clean your oven weekly or more often, if needed. Metal Rack Remove the metal rack to clean it at the sink. Use a mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe dry. Grease Filters Remove the metal mesh grease filters on the hood bottom cover for washing at the sink. To remove each filter :
1. Grasp the tab at the end of the filter, as shown. 2. Slide the filter toward each side of the oven. 3. Pull it downward and out. Use a warm detergent solution, rinse and wipe dry. DO NOT USE AMMONIA to clean an aluminum mesh filter. Do not run the hood fan without the filter. To reinstall the filter, slide it into the side slot, then push up and toward oven center to lock. The filter should be completely dry before reinstalling into the oven.
- 28 -
CARE AND CLEANING Charcoal Filter(Optional) Replacement If your oven is vented inside, the charcoal filter needs replacing every 6 to 12 months, and more often if necessary. The charcoal filter removes odors and smoke from the vented air. If you start smelling cooking odors or see some smoke, you need to replace the charcoal filter. Here's how:
1. To order a new charcoal filter, contact your dealers parts department. 2. Remove the two vent grille mounting screws. If the screws are not accessible, remove the oven from the wall. 3. Tip the grille forward, then lift it out. 4. Lift the back of the charcoal filter and slide it toward you. 5. Slide a new charcoal filter into place. 6. Put the grille back on with the mounting screws. Work Light Replacement(Cooktop/Countertop Light) When either bulb in the work light burns out, you will need to replace it with a 30 watt appliance bulb. 1. Disconnect the power at the circuit breaker or unplug the power cord. 2. Remove the phillips head screw from the work light cover. Right side will drop. 3. Unhook tab at left side. 4. Unscrew the burned out bulb and replace with one of the same size and wattage (30 watts). 5. Replace the work light cover and the screw. 6. Reconnect the power. 7. Set the Time of Day (see Page 9).

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS OPERATION Q. What is wrong when the oven light will not glow during cooking or when the oven door is open?
A. There may be several reasons why the oven light will not glow. Perhaps:
The door is not closed & locked. Push the door firmly to be sure that the door is locked properly. G The light bulb has burned out. Q. Why does steam come out of the vent grill?
A. Steam is normally produced during cooking. The microwave oven has been designed to vent this steam out the left side vent. Q. Will the microwave oven be damaged if it operates empty?
A. Yes. Never operate the oven empty. Q. Does microwave energy pass through the viewing screen in the door?
A. No. The metal screen bounces back the energy to the oven cavity. The holes (or ports) are made to allow light to pass through. They do not let microwave energy pass through. Q. Why does the "beep" tone sound when a "pad" on the control panel is touched?
A. The "beep" tone sounds to assure that the setting is being properly entered. Q. Can my microwave oven be damaged if food is cooked for too long a period of time?
A. Like any other cooking appliance, it is possible to destroy food by overcooking, which may result in smoke and even possible fire damage to the inside of the oven. It is always best to stay with the oven while it is cooking. See the "Safety Instructions" on pages 4 and 5. Q. Why does the hood fan start when I have not pushed the Fan Control Button?
A. The hood fan starts automatically to prevent the oven from overheating. Q. When the oven is plugged into a wall outlet for the first time, it may not work properly. What is wrong?
A. Only when the oven is plugged in for the first time or when power starts again after a power outage, the microcomputer in the oven may become scrambled and not work as it was programmed to work. Unplug the oven from the 120V household outlet and then plug it back in. The microcomputer will reset and work properly afterward. Q. Why do I see light reflection around the outer case?
A. This light is from the oven light located outside the cavity. Q. How can I be sure the oven is turned off when the hood fan is running?
A. The hood fan may be louder than the oven. If you are not sure the oven is off, turn off the hood fan and check to see if the oven is operating. The oven is designed to turn off automatically when you open the door. If, for some reason, you are still not satisfied, have your oven checked. FOODS Q. What is wrong when baked foods have a hard, dry, brown spot?
A. A hard, dry, brown spot shows overcooking. Shorten the cooking or reheating time. Q. Why do eggs sometimes pop?
A. When baking, frying or poaching eggs, the yolk may pop due to steam build-up inside the yolk membrane. To prevent this build-up, simply pierce the yolk with a toothpick before cooking it.
- 30 -
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS CAUTION Never microwave eggs in the shell. Q. Why are scrambled eggs sometimes a little dry after cooking?
A. Eggs dry out if they are overcooked. Though you use the same recipe each time, you may need to vary the cooking time for one of these reasons:
G Eggs vary in size. G Eggs are at room temperature one time and at refrigerator temperature another time. G The shape of utensils vary, making cooking time vary also. G Eggs continue cooking during standing time. Q. Is it possible to popcorn in a microwave oven?
A. Yes, if using one of the two methods described below. 1. Microwave-popping devices designed for microwave cooking 2. Prepackaged commercial microwave popcorn that suggests specific times and power outputs needed for an acceptable final product. FOLLOW EXACT DIRECTIONS GIVEN BY EACH MANUFACTURER FOR THE POPCORN POPPING PRODUCT AND DO NOT LEAVE THE OVEN UNATTENDED WHILE THE CORN IS BEING POPPED. IF THE CORN FAILS TO POP AFTER THE SUGGESTED TIMES, DISCONTINUE COOKING. OVERCOOKING COULD RESULT IN AN OVEN FIRE. CAUTION Never use a brown paper bag for popping corn. Q. What is wrong when three potatoes bake thoroughly and the fourth one is still not cooked?
A. The fourth potato may be slightly heavier than the others, and should be cooked 30 to 60 seconds longer. Remember to allow space around each potato when baking. Also, for more even cooking, put the potatoes in a circle. Q. Why do baked apples sometimes burst during cooking?
A. The peeling has not been removed from the top half of each apple to allow for expansion of the interior of the apple during cooking. As in regular cooking the interior of the apple expands during cooking. Q. How do you avoid boilovers?
A. When cooking foods that tend to boil over, use a larger utensil than usual for cooking. If you open door or press STOP, the food will stop boiling. (Remember to press START again after closing the the door to restart the cooking cycle.) Q. Why is standing time necessary after microwave cooking is over?
A. Standing time allows foods to continue cooking evenly throughout for a few moments after the actual microwave oven cooking cycle. The amount of standing time depends on the density of the food. Q. Why is additional time required for cooking food stored in the refrigerator?
A. As in conventional cooking, the initial temperature of food affects total cooking time. Refrigerated foods take more time to cook than foods stored at room temperature.
