WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons, or exposure to excessive microwave energy:
I Read all instructions before using the microwave oven. I Read and follow the specific PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY found in this section. accordance with the provided Installation Instructions. I Some products such as whole eggs in the shell and sealed containers - for example, closed glass jars -
are able to explode and should not be heated in the microwave oven. I Install or locate the microwave oven only in I The microwave oven must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet. See GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS found in this section and in the provided Installation Instructions. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 2 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS I Use the microwave oven only for its intended use as described in the manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in the microwave oven. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use. I As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children. I Do not operate the microwave oven if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged or dropped. I The microwave oven should be serviced only by qualified service personnel. Call an authorized service company for examination, repair, or adjustment. I Do not cover or block any openings on the microwave oven. I Do not store this microwave oven outdoors. Do not use the microwave oven near water - for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or similar locations. I Do not immerse cord or plug in water. I Keep cord away from heated surfaces. I Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter. I See door surface cleaning instructions in the Microwave Oven Care section. I To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
Do not overcook food. Carefully attend the microwave oven when 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. If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel. I Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling. 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 THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
Do not overheat the liquid. Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it. Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks. After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the container. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container. I Do not mount over a sink. I Do not store anything directly on top of the microwave oven when the microwave oven is in operation. I Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently - Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or filter. I When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on. I Suitable for use above both gas and electric cooking equipment. I Intended to be used above ranges with maximum width of 36" (91.44 cm). I Use care when cleaning the vent-hood filter. Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based oven cleaners, may damage the filter. Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 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 the oven door close properly and that there is no damage to the:

Composition and Density Foods high in fat and sugar will reach a higher temperature and will heat faster than other foods. Heavy, dense foods, such as meat and potatoes, require a longer cook time than the same size of a light, porous food, such as cake. Cooking Guidelines Covering Covering food helps retain moisture, shorten cook time, and reduce spattering. Use the lid supplied with cookware. If a lid is not available, wax paper, paper towels, or plastic wrap approved for microwave ovens may be used. Plastic wrap should be turned back at one corner to provide an opening to vent steam. Condensation on the door and cavity surfaces is normal during heavy cooking. Stirring and Turning Stirring and turning redistributes heat evenly to avoid overcooking the outer edges of food. Stir from outside to center. If possible, turn food over from bottom to top. Arranging If heating irregularly shaped or different-sized foods, arrange the thinner parts and smaller-sized items toward the center. If cooking several items of the same size and shape, place them in a ring pattern, leaving the center of the ring empty. Piercing Before heating, use a fork or small knife to pierce or prick foods that have a skin or membrane, such as potatoes, egg yolks, chicken livers, hot dogs, and sausage. Prick in several places to allow steam to vent. Shielding Use small, flat pieces of aluminum foil to shield the thin pieces of irregularly shaped foods, bones, and foods such as chicken wings, leg tips, and fish tails. See the Aluminum Foil and Metal section first. Standing Time Food will continue to cook by the natural conduction of heat, even after the microwave cooking cycle ends. The length of standing time depends on the volume and density of the food. A magnetron in the microwave oven produces microwaves which reflect off the metal floor, walls, and ceiling and pass through the turntable and appropriate cookware to the food. Microwaves are attracted to and absorbed by fat, sugar, and water molecules in the food, causing them to move, producing friction and heat which cooks the food. To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not lean on or allow children to swing on the microwave oven door. To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not operate microwave oven when it is empty. The turntable must be in place and correct side up when microwave oven is in use. Do not use if turntable is chipped or broken. See the Accessories section to reorder. Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in microwave oven. Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, and paper, including brown paper bags and newspaper, should not be dried in the microwave oven. Paraffin wax will not melt in the microwave oven because it does not absorb microwaves. Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing containers from microwave oven. Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended cook time, potatoes should be slightly firm. Let potatoes stand for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing. Do not cook or reheat whole eggs inside the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst. Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time. Food Characteristics When microwave cooking, the amount, size and shape, starting temperature, composition, and density of the food affect cooking results. Amount of Food The more food heated at once, the longer the cook time needed. Check for doneness and add small increments of time if necessary. Size and Shape Smaller pieces of food will cook more quickly than larger pieces, and uniformly shaped foods cook more evenly than irregularly shaped food. 10 Cookware and Dinnerware Cookware and dinnerware must fit on the turntable. Always use oven mitts or pot holders when handling because any dish may become hot from heat transferred from the food. Do not use cookware and dinnerware with gold or silver trim. Use the following chart as a guide, then test before using. Material Recommendations Aluminum Foil, Metal Browning Dish Ceramic Glass, Glass China, Earthenware Melamine Paper: Towels, Dinnerware, Napkins Plastic: Wraps, Bags, Covers, Dinnerware, Containers Pottery and Clay Silicone Bakeware Straw, Wicker, Wooden Containers Styrofoam Wax Paper See the Aluminum Foil and Metal section. Bottom must be at least 3/16" (5 mm) above the turntable. Follow manufacturers recommendations. Acceptable for use. Follow manufacturers recommendations. Follow manufacturers recommendations. Use non-recycled and those approved by the manufacturer for microwave oven use. Use those approved by the manufacturer for microwave oven use. Follow manufacturers recommendations. Follow manufacturers recommendations. Do not use in microwave oven. Do not use in microwave oven. Acceptable for use. To Test Cookware or Dinnerware for Microwave Use:
1. Place cookware or dinnerware in microwave oven with 1 cup
(250 mL) of water beside it. 2. Cook at 100% cooking power for 1 minute. Do not use cookware or dinnerware if it becomes hot and the water stays cool. Aluminum Foil and Metal Always use oven mitts or pot holders when removing dishes from the microwave oven. Aluminum foil and some metal can be used in the microwave oven. If not used properly, arcing (a blue flash of light) can occur and cause damage to the microwave oven. OK for Use Racks and bakeware supplied with the microwave oven (on some models), aluminum foil for shielding, and approved meat thermometers may be used with the following guidelines:
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow aluminum foil or metal to touch the inside cavity walls, ceiling, or floor. Always use the turntable. To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow contact with another metal object during microwave cooking. Do Not Use Metal cookware and bakeware, gold, silver, pewter, non-approved meat thermometers, skewers, twist ties, foil liners, such as sandwich wrappers, staples, and objects with gold or silver trim or a metallic glaze, should not be used in the microwave oven. Styrofoam is a registered trademark of The Dow Chemical Company. 11 Sensor Cook A sensor in the microwave oven detects moisture released from food as it heats and adjusts the cooking time accordingly. Use microwave-safe dish with loose-fitting lid or cover microwave-
safe dish with plastic wrap and vent. For Best Cooking Performance:
Before using a Sensor Cook function, make sure power has been supplied to the microwave oven for at least 2 minutes, the room temperature is not above 95F (35C), and the outside of the cooking container and the microwave oven cavity are dry. Manual Cooking/Stage Cooking Touch COOK TIME/POWER and touch the number keypads to enter time. If using a cooking power other than 100%, touch COOK TIME/POWER again, then enter desired cooking power.
