IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
SPECIAL NOTES ABOUT MICROWAVING
Arcing is the microwave
term for sparks in the oven.
Arcing is caused by:
The temperature probe
in the microwave but not
inserted in the food.
The metal shelf not
installed correctly so it
touches the microwave
wall.
Metal or foil touching the
side of the oven.
Foil not molded to food
(upturned edges act like
antennas).
Metal, such as twist-ties,
poultry pins, or gold-
rimmed dishes, in the
microwave.
Recycled paper towels
containing small metal
pieces being used in the
microwave.
If you see arcing, press
the CLEAR/OFF pad and
correct the problem.
ARCING
Do not pop popcorn in
your microwave oven
unless in a special
microwave popcorn
accessory or unless you
use popcorn labeled for
use in microwave ovens.
Some products such as
whole eggs and sealed
containers—for example,
closed jars—will explode
and should not be heated
in this microwave oven.
Such use of the microwave
oven could result in injury.
Do not boil eggs in a
microwave oven. Pressure
will build up inside egg
yolk and will cause it to
burst, possibly resulting
in injury.
Operating the microwave
with no food inside for
more than a minute or
two may cause damage to
the oven and could start a
fire. It increases the heat
around the magnetron
and can shorten the life
of the oven.
Foods with unbroken
outer “skin” such as
potatoes, hot dogs,
sausages, tomatoes,
apples, chicken livers
and other giblets, and
egg yolks should be
pierced to allow steam
to escape during cooking.
FOODS
6
7
Avoid heating baby food
in glass jars, even with the
lid off. Make sure all
infant food is thoroughly
cooked. Stir food to
distribute the heat
evenly. Be careful to
prevent scalding when
warming formula or
breast milk. The container
may feel cooler than the
milk really is. Always test
the milk before feeding
the baby.
Spontaneous boiling—
Under certain special
circumstances, liquids
may start to boil during
or shortly after removal
from the microwave oven.
To prevent burns from
splashing liquid, we
recommend the following:
before removing the
container from the oven,
allow the container to
stand in the oven for 30
to 40 seconds after the
oven has shut off. Do not
boil liquids in narrow-
necked containers such
as soft drink bottles, wine
flasks and especially
narrow-necked coffee
cups. Even if the
container is opened,
excessive steam can build
up and cause it to burst
or overflow.
Don’t defrost frozen
beverages in narrow-
necked bottles (especially
carbonated beverages).
Even if the container is
opened, pressure can
build up. This can cause
the container to burst,
possibly resulting in
injury.
Hot foods and steam
can cause burns. Be
careful when opening
any containers of hot
food, including popcorn
bags, cooking pouches
and boxes. To prevent
possible injury, direct
steam away from hands
and face.
Do not overcook
potatoes. They could
dehydrate and catch
fire, causing damage to
your oven.
When cooking pork,
follow the directions
exactly and always cook
the meat to an internal
temperature of at least
170°F. This assures that,
in the remote possibility
that trichina may be
present in the meat, it
will be killed and meat
will be safe to eat.
SAFETY
FACT
SUPERHEATED WATER
Microwaved water and
other liquids do not
always bubble when
they reach the boiling
point. They can actually
get superheated and not
bubble at all.
Superheated liquid will
bubble up out of the cup
when it is moved or
when something like a
spoon or tea bag is put
into it.
To prevent this from
happening and causing
injury, do not heat any
liquid for more than 2
minutes per cup. After
heating, let the cup
stand in the microwave
for 30 seconds before
moving it or putting
anything into it.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
SPECIAL NOTES ABOUT MICROWAVING
Make sure all cookware
used in your microwave
oven is suitable for
microwaving. Most glass
casseroles, cooking dishes,
measuring cups, custard
cups, pottery or china
dinnerware which does not
have metallic trim or glaze
with a metallic sheen can
be used. Some cookware is
labeled “suitable for
microwaving.
If you are not sure if a
dish is microwave-safe,
use this test: Place in the
oven both the dish you
are testing and a glass
measuring cup filled with
1 cup of water—set the
measuring cup either in
or next to the dish.
Microwave 1 minute at
high. If the dish heats, it
should not be used for
microwaving.
If the dish remains cool
and only the water in the
cup heats, then the dish
is microwave-safe.
If you use a meat ther-
mometer while cooking,
make sure it is safe for
use in microwave ovens.
Do not use recycled
paper products. Recycled
paper towels, napkins
and waxed paper can
contain metal flecks
which may cause arcing
or ignite. Paper products
containing nylon or
nylon filaments should
be avoided, as they may
also ignite.
Some styrofoam trays
(like those that meat is
packaged on) have a thin
strip of metal embedded
in the bottom. When
microwaved, the metal
can burn the floor of the
oven or ignite a paper
towel.
Do not use the microwave
to dry newspapers.
Not all plastic wrap is
suitable for use in micro-
wave ovens. Check the
package for proper use.
Paper towels, waxed
paper and plastic wrap
can be used to cover
dishes in order to retain
moisture and prevent
spattering. Be sure to
vent plastic wrap so steam
can escape.
Cookware may become
hot because of heat
transferred from the
heated food. Pot holders
may be needed to handle
the cookware.
“Boilable” cooking
pouches and tightly
closed plastic bags should
be slit, pierced or vented
as directed by package. If
they are not, plastic could
burst during or immed-
iately after cooking,
possibly resulting in injury.
Also, plastic storage
containers should be at
least partially uncovered
because they form a tight
seal. When cooking with
containers tightly covered
with plastic wrap, remove
covering carefully and
direct steam away from
hands and face.

SAFE
COOKWARE
How to test for a microwave-
safe dish.

Use foil only as directed
in this manual. TV
dinners may be
microwaved in foil trays
less than 3/4²high;
remove the top foil cover
and return the tray to the
box. When using foil in
the microwave oven,
keep the foil at least
1 inch away from the
sides of the oven.
Plastic cookware—Plastic
cookware designed for
microwave cooking is very
useful, but should be used
carefully. Even microwave-
safe plastic may not be as
tolerant of overcooking
conditions as are glass or
ceramic materials and
may soften or char if
subjected to short periods
of overcooking. In longer
exposures to over-
cooking, the food and
cookware could ignite.
Follow these guidelines:
1
Use microwave-safe
plastics only and use
them in strict compliance
with the cookware
manufacturers
recommendations.
2
Do not microwave empty
containers.
3
Do not permit children
to use plastic cookware
without complete
supervision.
The fan will operate
automatically under
certain conditions (see
Automatic Fan feature).
Take care to prevent the
starting and spreading of
accidental cooking fires
while the vent fan is in use.
Clean the underside of
the microwave often. Do
not allow grease to build
up on the microwave or
the fan filters.
In the event of a grease
fire on the surface units
below the microwave
oven, smother a flaming
pan on the surface unit
by covering the pan
completely with a lid, a
cookie sheet or a flat tray.
Use care when cleaning
the vent fan filters.
Corrosive cleaning
agents, such as lye-based
oven cleaners, may
damage the filters.
When flaming foods
under the microwave,
turn the vent fan off.
The fan, if operating,
may spread the flame.
Never leave surface units
beneath your microwave
oven unattended at high
heat settings. Boilovers
cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite
and spread if the
microwave vent fan is
operating. To minimize
automatic fan operation,
use adequate sized
cookware and use high
heat on surface units only
when necessary.

Operating Instructions
Variable power levels add
flexibility to microwave
cooking. The power levels
on the microwave oven can
be compared to the surface
units on a range. High
(power level 10) or full
power is the fastest way to
cook and gives you 100%
power. Each power level
gives you microwave
energy a certain percent of
the time. Power level 7 is
microwave energy 70% of
the time. Power level 3 is
energy 30% of the time.
A high setting (10) will
cook faster but food may
need more frequent
stirring, rotating or turning
over. Most cooking will be
done on High (power level
10). A lower setting will
cook more evenly and
need less stirring or
rotating of the food.
Some foods may have
better flavor, texture or
appearance if one of the
lower settings is used. Use
a lower power level when
cooking foods that have a
tendency to boil over, such
as scalloped potatoes.
Rest periods (when the
microwave energy cycles
off) give time for the food
to “equalize” or transfer
heat to the inside of the
food. An example of this is
shown with power level 3—
the defrost cycle. If micro-
wave energy did not cycle
off, the outside of the food
would cook before the
inside was defrosted.
Here are some examples
of uses for various power
levels:
Power Level Best Uses

Time Features
Allows you to defrost for
the length of time you
select. See the Defrosting
Guide for suggested times.
Power level 3 is automati-
cally set, but you may
change this for more flexi-
bility. You may defrost
small items more quickly
by raising the power level
after entering the time.
However, they will need
more frequent attention
than usual.
Power level 7 cuts the total
defrosting time in about
half; power level 10 cuts
the total time to approxi-
mately 1/3. Rotate or stir
food frequently.
At one half of selected
defrosting time, the oven
signals TURN. At this time,
turn food over and break
apart or rearrange pieces
for more even defrosting.
Shield any warm areas with
small pieces of foil.
A dull thumping noise may
be heard during defrosting.
This sound is normal when
the oven is not operating at
High power.
Defrosting Tips
Foods frozen in paper or
plastic can be defrosted
in the package. Tightly
closed packages should
be slit, pierced or vented
AFTER food has partially
defrosted. Plastic storage
containers should be at
least partially uncovered.
Family-size, prepackaged
frozen dinners can be
defrosted and micro-
waved. If the food is in a
foil container, transfer it
to a microwave-safe dish.
Foods that spoil easily,
such as milk, eggs, fish,
stuffings, poultry and
pork, should not be
allowed to sit out for
more than one hour
after defrosting. Room
temperature promotes
the growth of harmful
bacteria.
For more even defrosting
of larger foods, such as
beef, lamb and veal
roasts, use Auto Defrost.
Be sure large meats are
completely defrosted
before cooking.
When defrosted, food
should be cool but
softened in all areas. If still
slightly icy, return to the
microwave very briefly, or
let it stand a few minutes.

AUTO/TIME twice.

The Temperature Probe
NOTE:
The turntable will
not turn when the probe is
in use.
The temperature probe is
a food thermometer that
monitors the temperature
of the food. The probe
must be used when using
Temp Cook or Roast.
The probe is not
recommended for batters,
doughs, frozen foods and
foods which are difficult
to cook precisely by
temperature. Use the
Time Cook setting for
these foods.
Make sure the cable end
is inserted all the way into
the oven wall receptacle.
Insert the probe into the
center of the food. Make
sure the handle does not
touch the food or the top
or sides of the oven.
Do not leave the probe
in the oven if it’s not
inserted in food. If it
touches the oven wall, it
may damage the oven.
Cooking Tips
Do not twist, drop or
bend the probe.
Be sure frozen food has
been completely
defrosted before
inserting the probe. The
probe may break off if
used in frozen foods.
Cover foods loosely for
moisture control and
quick, even heating.
Use a lower power level
with the probe; foods will
take longer to cook but
they will heat more
evenly.
What happens when you
use the probe…
Cooking with the
probe allows you to
heat food to a certain
temperature. This is
the best way to cook
many foods.

in the lower position.
For best cooking results,
remove the shelf unless you

Microwave Terms
Arcing
Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is
caused by:
the temperature probe staying in the oven but not inserted in
the food.
the metal shelf being installed incorrectly and touching the
microwave walls.
metal or foil touching the side of the oven.
foil that is not molded to food (upturned edges act like
antennas).
metal such as twist ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed dishes.
recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces.
Covering
Covers hold in moisture, allow for more even heating and reduce
cooking time. Venting plastic wrap or covering with wax paper
allows excess steam to escape.
Shielding
In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked foods to
prevent over-browning. When microwaving, you use small strips of
foil to shield thin parts, such as the tips of wings and legs on poultry,
which would cook before larger parts.
Standing Time
When you cook with regular ovens, foods such as roasts or cakes are
allowed to stand to finish cooking or to set. Standing time is
especially important in microwave cooking. Note that a microwaved
cake is not placed on a cooling rack.
Venting
After covering a dish with plastic wrap, you vent the plastic wrap by
turning back one corner so excess steam can escape.
