MICROWAVE COOKING TIPS Amount of Food If you increase or decrease the amount of food you prepare, the time it takes to cook that food will also change. For example, if you double a recipe, add a little more than half the original cooking time. Check for doneness and, if necessary, add more time in small increments. Starting Temperature of Food The lower the temperature of the food being put into the microwave oven, the longer it takes to cook. Food at room temperature reheats more quickly than food at refrigerator temperature. Composition of Food Food with a lot of fat and sugar heats faster than food containing a lot of water. Fat and sugar also reach a higher temperature than water during the cooking process. The more dense the food, the longer it takes to heat. Very dense food like meat takes longer to heat than lighter, more porous food like sponge cakes. Size and Shape Smaller pieces of food cook faster than larger pieces. Also, same-shaped pieces cook more evenly than different-shaped pieces. With foods that have different thicknesses, the thinner parts cook faster than the thicker parts Place the thinner parts of chicken wings and legs in the center of the dish. Stirring and Turning Foods Stirring and turning foods spreads heat quickly to the center of the dish and avoids overcooking at the outer edges of the food. Covering Food Cover food to:
reduce splattering shorten cooking times keep food moist Releasing Pressure in Foods Several foods (for example: baked potatoes, sausages, egg yolks, and some fruits) are tightly covered by a skin or membrane. Steam can build up under the membrane during cooking, causing the food to burst. To relieve the pressure and to prevent bursting, pierce these foods before cooking with a fork, cocktail pick, or toothpick. Using Standing Time Always allow food to stand either in or out of the oven after cooking power stops. Standing time after defrosting and cooking allows the temperature to evenly spread throughout the food, improving the cooking results. For inside oven standing time, program a 0 power second stage of the cooking cycle. See Cooking with More than One Cook Cycle. The length of the standing time depends on how much food you are cooking and how dense it is. Sometimes it can be as short as the time it takes you to remove the food from the oven and take it to the serving table. However, with larger, denser food items, the standing time may be as long as 10 minutes. Arranging Food For best results, place food evenly on the plate. You can do this in several ways:
If you are cooking several items of the same food, such as baked potatoes, place them in a ring pattern for uniform cooking. When cooking foods of uneven shapes or thickness, such as chicken breasts, place the smaller or thinner area of the food towards the center of the dish where it will be heated last. Layer thin slices of meat on top of each other. When you cook or reheat whole fish, score the skin to prevent cracking. Do not let food or a container touch the top or sides of the oven. This will prevent possible arcing.

MICROWAVE COOKING TIPS Removing the Rack When popping commercially packaged popcorn, remove the rack and drip pan from the oven. Do not place the bag of microwave popcorn on the rack or under the rack. Leave the glass tray in place at all times. CAUTION: Popping microwave popcorn with rack and drip pan in place can cause fire or damage to the microwave oven. Using Aluminum Foil Metal containers should not be used in a microwave oven. However, if you have purchased food which is prepackaged in an aluminum foil container, refer to the instructions on the package. When using aluminum foil containers, cooking times may be longer because microwaves will only penetrate the exposed top of the food and not the bottom or the sides. If using aluminum containers without package instructions, follow these guidelines:
Place the aluminum foil container in a glass bowl and add water so that it covers the bottom of the container, but not more than in. (.64 cm) deep. This ensures even heating of the container bottom. Always remove the container lid to avoid damage to the oven. Use only undamaged containers. Do not use containers taller than in. (1.9 cm). Container must be at least half filled. To avoid arcing, there must be a minimum in.(.64 cm) between the aluminum container and the walls of the oven and also between two aluminum containers. Always place the container on the turntable. Shield parts of food that may cook quickly, such as wing tips and leg ends of poultry, with small pieces of aluminum foil. Heating food in aluminum foil containers usually takes up to double the time compared to reheating in plastic, glass, china, or paper containers. The cooking time will vary depending upon the type of container you use. Let food stand for 2 to 3 minutes after heating so that heat is spread evenly throughout the container. Do Not Can or Sterilize in Oven Do not try to can food in the oven. Closed glass jars may explode, resulting in damage to the oven. Do not use the microwave oven to sterilize objects
(baby bottles, etc.). It is difficult to keep the oven at the high temperature needed for sterilization.

MICROWAVE COOKING TIPS Cooking Comparison Guide Cooking with your new oven offers a wide variety of food preparation options: microwave cooking, convection cooking, and combination cooking. Microwave cooking uses very short, high-frequency radio waves. The movement of the microwaves through the food generates heat and cooks most foods faster than regular methods, while retaining their natural texture and moisture. Microwave cooking heats food directly, not the cookware or the interior of the oven. Reheating is easy and defrosting is particularly convenient because less time is spent in food preparation. Convection cooking constantly circulates heated air around the food, creating even browning and sealed-in flavor by the constant motion of hot air over the food surfaces. Combination cooking combines microwave energy with convection to cook with speed and accuracy, while browning and crisping to perfection. Timed cooking can be set with microwave cooking, convection cooking, and combination cooking. Preset the desired length of cooking time and the oven turns off automatically. MICROWAVE CONVECTION COMBINATION COOKING METHOD Microwave energy is distributed evenly throughout the oven for fast, thorough cooking of food. Hot air circulates around food to produce browned exteriors and sealed-in juices. HEAT SOURCE Microwave energy. Circulating heated air. BENEFITS Fast, high efficiency cooking. Oven and surroundings do not get hot. Easy clean-up Aids in browning and seals in flavor. Cooks some foods faster than regular ovens. Microwave energy and convection heat combine to shorten the cooking time of regular ovens, while browning and sealing in juices. Microwave energy and circulating heated air. Shortened cooking time from microwave energy. Browning and crisping from convection heat.

MICROWAVE COOKING TIPS Combination Cooking Glass or glass-ceramic baking containers are recommended. Do not use items with metal trim as they may cause arcing (sparking) with oven wall or oven shelf, damaging the cookware, the shelf, or the oven. Heat-resistant plastic microwave cookware (safe to 450F) may be used, but is not recommended for foods that require crusting or all-around browning, because plastic is a poor conductor of heat. COOKWARE GUIDE Microwave Cooking Most heat-resistant, non-metallic cookware is safe for use in the microwave oven. Testing Cookware Before Using 1. Place the empty cookware in the microwave oven. 2. Measure 1 cup of water in a glass measuring cup and place it in the oven beside the cookware. 3. Microwave on 100% power for 1 minute. If the dish is warm, it should not be used for microwave cooking. Convection Cooking Metal pans are recommended for all types of baked products, but especially where browning or crusting is important. Dark or dull finish metal pans are best for breads and pies because they absorb heat and produce a crisper crust. Shiny aluminum pans are better for cakes, cookies, or muffins because these pans reflect heat and help produce a light, tender crust. Glass or glass-ceramic casserole or baking dishes are best suited for egg and cheese recipes to provide easy cleanup. CONVECTION Yes Yes COMBINATION Yes Yes Yes No No No No No No No Yes*

OPERATION SENSOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Sensor Cook cooks favorite foods without selecting cooking times and power levels. The oven automatically determines required cooking time for each food item. When the internal sensor detects a certain amount of humidity coming from the food, it tells the oven how much longer to heat. The display shows the remaining heating time. For best results when sensor cooking, follow these recommendations. 1. Food cooked with the sensor system should be at normal storage temperature. 2. The glass tray and the outside of the container should be dry to assure best cooking results. 3. Foods should always be covered loosely with microwavable plastic wrap, waxed paper, or a lid. 4. Do not open the door or touch STOP/CLEAR 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 and cover them with lids or vented plastic wrap. 2. Never use tight-sealing plastic 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. SENSOR REHEAT Use SENSOR REHEAT to reheat common microwave-
prepared foods without selecting cooking times and power levels. Example: To reheat slices of pizza. 1. Touch REHEAT. PIZZA SLICE 2. Turn the dial to select PIZZA SLICE. 3. Touch START or press the dial to enter. When the cook time is over a melody sounds and COOK END displays. SENSOR COOK Use SENSOR COOK to heat common microwave-
prepared foods without needing to program times and power levels. SENSOR COOK has preset programs for 6 food categories. Example: To cook rice. 1. Touch COOK. RICE 2. Turn the dial to select RICE. 3. Touch START or press the dial to enter. After a slight delay, cooking begins. When the cook time is over a melody sounds and COOK END displays. SENSOR POPCORN POPCORN lets you pop commercially packaged microwave popcorn. Pop only one package at a time. For best results, use fresh bags of popcorn. Example: To pop popcorn. 1. Touch POPCORN. When the cook time is over a melody sounds and COOK END displays.

Never use for microwave or combination cooking since arcing and damage to the oven may occur. 11. After preheating, if the door remains closed, the oven automatically holds at the preheated temperature for 30 minutes. PRECAUTIONS The oven cavity, door, turntable, roller rest, metal tray, metal rack, and cooking utensils become very hot. USE THICK OVEN GLOVES when removing the food, cooking utensils, metal rack, metal tray, and turntable from the oven after convection cooking. Do not use lightweight plastic containers, plastic wraps, or paper products during any convection cycle. TIPS FOR CONVECTION COOKING This section provides cooking instructions and procedures for each convection function. Convection cooking circulates hot air through the oven cavity with a fan. The constantly moving air surrounds the food to heat the outer portion quickly, creating even browning and sealed-in flavor through the constant motion of hot air over the food surfaces. To use convection cooking, turn the dial to select the Convection or Combination modes. DO NOT USE THE OVEN WITHOUT THE TURNTABLE IN PLACE. 1. Always use the metal rack on the turntable when convection cooking. 2. Do not cover the turntable or metal rack with aluminum foil. It interferes with the flow of a 4. Use convection cooking for items like souffls, breads, cookies, angel food cakes, pizza, and for some meat and fish. 5. The oven comes equipped with a metal tray which can be used for cooking in convection mode or combination mode. 6. No special techniques are necessary to adapt favorite oven recipes to convection cooking; but reduce the oven temperature by 25F from the recommended temperature when cooking packaged foods in convection mode. 7. When baking cakes, cookies, breads, rolls, or other baked foods, most recipes call for preheating. Preheat the empty oven just as with a regular oven. You can start heavier dense foods such as meats, casseroles, and poultry without preheating. 8. All heatproof cookware or metal utensils can be used in convection cooking. 9. As in conventional cooking, the distance of the food from the heat source affects cooking results. Refer to the charts in this owner's manual.

CONVECTION During convection cooking, a heating element is used to raise the temperature of the air inside the oven. Convection cooking temperature ranges from 100F to 450F. It is best to preheat the oven when convection cooking. Note: Reduce oven temperature by 25F from the temperature recommended on packaged foods. The baking time may vary according to the food condition or individual preference. Example: To set for convection cooking at 325F for 45 minutes with preheating. CONVECTION 325 DISPLAY SCROLLS PREHEAT END 45:00 1. Touch MANUAL COOK. 2. Turn the dial to select CONVECTION. Touch START or press the dial to enter. 3. Turn the dial to set the temperature (325F).

OPERATION TIPS FOR COMBINATION COOKING This section provides instructions for each combination cooking function. Combination microwave-convection cooking shortens the cooking time for foods that normally need a long time to cook. It also leaves meat juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. In combination cooking, the convection heat and microwave energy alternate automatically. The oven has three preprogrammed settings that make it easy to use combination cooking. HELPFUL HINTS FOR COMBINATION COOKING 1. Meats can be roasted directly on the metal rack or in a shallow roasting pan placed on the rack. When using the metal rack, check the cooking guide for information on proper use. 2. Less tender cuts of beef can be roasted and tenderized using oven cooking bags. 3. 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. PRECAUTIONS 1. All cookware used for combination cooking must be BOTH microwave-safe and oven-safe. 2. During combination baking, some baking cookware may cause arcing when it comes in contact with the oven walls or metal accessory racks. Arcing is a discharge of electricity that occurs when microwaves come in contact with metal.
- If arcing occurs, immediately stop the cooking cycle and place a heat resistant dish between the pan and the metal rack.
- Use the metal tray supplied with the oven. It has rubber feet that help prevent arcing.
- If arcing occurs with other baking cookware, do not use them for combination cooking. COMBINATION ROAST Example: To roast with combination cooking for 45 minutes at 400F. COMBI Co-1 400 45:00 1. Touch MANUAL COOK. 2. Turn the dial to select COMBI. Touch START or press the dial to enter. 3. Turn the dial to select Co-1. 4. Turn the dial to set the temperature. (400) 5.

OPERATION SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS Place on 3 sheets of paper towel. Note:
Do not use recycled paper products in the microwave oven. They sometimes contain impurities that cause arcing and sparking. NEVER use paper products in the convection oven. As food begins to defrost, separate the pieces Separated pieces defrost more easily. Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts of food such as chicken wings, leg tips, fish tails, or areas that start to get warm. Make sure the foil does not touch the sides, top, or bottom of the oven. The foil can damage the oven lining. For better results, let food stand after defrosting.
(For more information on standing time, see the Microwave Cooking Tips section.) Turn over food during defrosting or standing time Break apart and remove food as required. AUTO DEFROST TABLE (CONT.) Bread setting FOOD SETTING BREAD Bagel Dinner Roll BREAD BREAD AT BEEP Turn over and rearrange. DEFROSTING TIPS 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). Before starting, remove the metal twist-ties which often come with frozen food bags, and replace them with strings or elastic bands. Open containers such as cartons before they are placed in the oven. Always slit or pierce plastic pouches or packaging. If food is foil wrapped, remove foil and place the food in a suitable container. Slit the skins, if any, of frozen food such as sausage. Bend plastic pouches of food to ensure even defrosting. Always underestimate defrosting time. If defrosted food is still icy in the center, return it to the microwave oven for more defrosting. The length of defrosting time varies according to how solidly the food is frozen. The shape of the package affects how quickly food will defrost. Shallow packages will defrost more quickly than a deep block.

COOKING GUIDE CONVECTION BAKING GUIDELINES 1. Always use the metal rack when convection baking. Place food directly on rack or place in metal tray and then place tray on rack. 2. Aluminum pans conduct heat quickly. For most convection baking, light, shiny finishes give best results because they prevent overbrowning in the time it takes to cook the center areas. Pans with dull
(satin-finish) bottoms are recommended for cake pans and pie pans for best bottom browning. 3. Dark or non-shiny finishes, glass, and pyroceramic absorb heat which may result in dry, crisp crusts. 4. Preheating the oven is recommended when baking foods by convection. 5. To prevent uneven heating and save energy, open the oven door to check food as seldom as possible.

MAINTENANCE To clean the glass tray and rotating ring, wash in mild, sudsy water. For heavily soiled areas use a mild cleanser and scouring sponge. The glass tray and rotating ring are dishwasher safe. Metal Rack Metal Tray Glass Tray Rotating Ring CARING FOR YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN To make sure the microwave oven looks good and works well for a long time, maintain it properly. For proper care, follow these instructions carefully. For interior surfaces: Wash often with warm, sudsy water and a sponge or soft cloth. Use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or a mild detergent. Keep the areas clean where the door and oven frame touch when closed. Wipe well with a clean cloth. Over time, stains can occur on the surfaces as the result of food particles spattering during cooking. This is normal. For stubborn soil, boil a cup of water in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes. Steam will soften the soil. To get rid of odors inside the oven, boil a cup of water with some lemon juice or vinegar in it. For exterior surfaces and control panel: Use a soft cloth sprayed with glass cleaner. Apply the glass cleaner to the soft cloth; do not spray directly on the oven. Note: Abrasive cleansers, steel wool pads, gritty wash cloths, some paper towels, etc., can damage the control panel and the interior and exterior oven surfaces.

MAINTENANCE MICROWAVE UTENSIL GUIDE USE DO NOT USE OVENPROOF GLASS
(treated for high intensity heat):
utility dishes, loaf dishes, pie plates, cake plates, liquid measuring cups, casseroles and bowls without metallic trim. METAL UTENSILS:
Metal shields the food from microwave energy and produces uneven cooking. Also avoid metal skewers, thermometers, or foil trays. Metal utensils can cause arcing, which can damage the microwave oven. CHINA:
bowls, cups, serving plates, and platters without metallic trim. METAL DECORATION:
Metal-trimmed or metal-banded dinnerware, casserole dishes, etc. The metal trim interferes with normal cooking and may damage the oven. PLASTIC:
Plastic wrap (as a cover)- lay the plastic wrap loosely over the dish and press it to the sides. Vent plastic wrap by turning back one edge slightly to allow excess steam to escape. The dish should be deep enough so that the plastic wrap will not touch the food. As the food heats it may melt the plastic wrap wherever the wrap touches the food. Use plastic dishes, cups, semi-rigid freezer containers and plastic bags only for short cooking time. Use these with care because the plastic may soften from the heat of the food. PAPER:
Paper towels, waxed paper, paper napkins, and paper plates with no metallic trim or design. Look for the manufacturer's label for use in the microwave oven. Note:
Do not use recycled paper products in the microwave oven. They sometimes contain impurities that cause arcing and sparking. ALUMINUM FOIL:
Avoid large sheets of aluminum foil because they hinder cooking and may cause harmful arcing. Use small pieces of foil to shield poultry legs and wings. Keep ALL aluminum foil at least 1 inch from the side walls and door of the oven. WOOD:
Wooden bowls and boards will dry out and may split or crack when you use them in the microwave oven. Baskets react in the same way. TIGHTLY COVERED UTENSILS:
Be sure to leave openings for steam to escape from covered utensils. Pierce plastic pouches of vegetables or other food items before cooking. Tightly closed pouches could explode. BROWN PAPER:
Avoid using brown paper bags. They absorb too much heat and could burn. FLAWED OR CHIPPED UTENSILS:
Any utensil that is cracked, flawed, or chipped may break in the oven. NEVER use paper products in the convection oven. METAL TWIST TIES:
Remove metal twist ties from plastic or paper bags. They become hot and could cause a fire.

TROUBLESHOOTING BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE Check the following list to be sure a service call is really necessary. A quick reference of this manual as well as reviewing additional information on items to check may prevent an unneeded service call. If nothing on the oven operates:
check for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped main circuit breaker. check if oven is properly connected to electric circuit in house. check that controls are set properly. If the oven interior light does not work the light bulb is loose or defective. If oven will not cook:
check that control panel was programmed correctly. check that door is firmly closed. check that Start was pressed. check that timer wasnt started instead of a cook function. If oven takes longer than normal to cook or cooks too rapidly:
be sure the Power Level is programmed properly. If the time of day clock does not always keep correct time:
check that the power cord is fully inserted into the outlet receptacle. be sure the oven is the only appliance on the electrical circuit. If food cooks unevenly:
be sure food is evenly shaped. be sure food is completely defrosted before cooking. check placement of aluminum foil strips used to prevent overcooking. If food is undercooked:
check recipe to be sure all directions (amount, time, and power levels) were correctly followed. be sure microwave oven is on a separate circuit. be sure food is completely defrosted before cooking. If food is overcooked:
check recipe to be sure all directions (amount, power level, time, size of dish) were followed. If arcing (sparks) occur:
be sure microwavable dishes were used. be sure wire twist ties werent used. be sure oven wasnt operated when empty. make sure metal rack (if used) is properly installed on 4 supports. If the display shows a time counting down but the oven is not cooking:
check that door is firmly closed. check that timer wasnt started instead of a cooking function. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q. Can I use a rack in my microwave oven to reheat or cook on two levels at once?
A. Only use the rack that is supplied with your microwave oven. Use of any other rack can result in poor cooking performance and/or arcing and may damage your oven. Q. Can I use either metal or aluminum pans in my microwave oven?
A. Usable metal includes aluminum foil for shielding
(use small, flat pieces), and shallow foil trays (if tray is inch deep and filled with food to absorb microwave energy). Never allow metal to touch walls or door. Q. Sometimes the door of my microwave oven appears wavy. Is this normal?
A. This appearance is normal and does not affect the operation of your oven. Q. The glass tray does not move. A. The glass tray is not correctly in place. It should be correct-side up and sitting firmly on the center hub. The support is not operating correctly. Remove the glass tray and restart the oven. Cooking without the glass tray can give you poor results. Q. Why does the dish become hot when I microwave food in it? I thought that this should not happen. A. As the food becomes hot it will conduct the heat to the dish. Use hot pads to remove food after cooking. Q. What does standing time mean?
A. Standing time means that food should be taken out of the oven and covered for additional time after cooking. This process allows the cooking to finish, saves energy, and frees the oven for other purposes. Q. Can I pop popcorn in my microwave oven?
How do I get the best results?
A. Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn following manufacturers guidelines or use the preprogrammed Popcorn key. Do not use regular paper bags. Use the listening test by stopping the oven as soon as the popping slows to a pop every one or two seconds. Do not try to repop unpopped kernels. You can also use special microwave poppers. When using a popper, be sure to follow manufacturers directions. Do not pop popcorn in glass utensils. Q. Why does steam come out of the air exhaust vent?
A. Steam is normally produced during cooking. The microwave oven has been designed to vent steam out of the top vent.
