Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven
This section discusses the concepts behind microwave
cooking.
It also shows the basics that you need to
know in order
to operate
your microwave
oven. Please read this information
before using your oven.
HOW YOUR MICROWAVE
OVEN WORKS
Microwave
ovens are safe. Microwave
energy
is not hot. It
causes food
to make its own heat, and it is this heat
that
cooks the food.
Microwaves
are like TV waves,
radio waves, or
light waves.
You cannot see them, but you can see the results of what
they do.
A magnetron
in the microwave
oven produces microwaves.
The microwaves move into the oven where
they contact
food as it turns on the turntable.
The glass turntable
of your microwave
oven lets microwaves
pass through.
The microwaves
then bounce off a metal
floor, back through
the glass turntable,
and are absorbed
by the food.
Magnetron
/
I
O_,en cavity
Metal
floor
Glass turntable
Microwaves
pass through most glass, paper,
and plastics
without
heating
them, so food absorbs
the energy. Microwaves
bounce off metal containers
so food does
not absorb
the energy.
RADIO
iNTERFERENCE
Using your microwave
oven may cause
interference
to your radio, TV, or similar equipment. When
there
is
interference,
you can reduce
it or remove
it by:
" Cleaning
the door and sealing surfaces of the oven.
" Adjusting
the receiving
antenna of the radio or television.
" Moving
the receiver away
from the microwave
oven.
" Plugging
the microwave
oven into a different
outlet so that
the microwave
oven and receiver
are on
different
branch circuits.

FOR THE BEST COOKING
RESULTS
• Always
cook
food
for the shortest cooking
time recommended.
Check
to see how the food
is cooking.
If
needed,
touch Add 30 Sec while
the oven is operating,
or after
the cooking
cycle
is over (see the "Add
30 Sec" section).
• Stir, turn over, or rearrange
the food being cooked about
halfway
through
the cooking
time for all
recipes.
This will help ensure that
the food
is evenly cooked.
• if you do not have a cover
for a dish, use wax paper, or microwave-approved
paper
towels or plastic
wrap. Remember
to turn back a corner of the plastic wrap
to vent steam during cooking.
• The metal shelf
is used for cooking
certain
items and should be removed
from the microwave
oven when not
needed. Do not store metal
shelf
in the microwave
oven.
COOKWARE GUl DE
Microwave
Cooking
Most heat-reslstant,
non-metalllc
cookware
is safe
for use in your microwave
oven. However,
to test cookware
before
using, follow
these steps:
1. Place the empty cookware
in the microwave
oven.
2. Measure 1 cup (250ml)
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 due to the cleanability
of glass.
Combination
Cooking
" Glass or glass-ceramic
baking containers
are recommended.
Be sure not to use items with metal
trim as it may cause
I
arcing
(sparking) with oven wall or oven shelf, damaging
the coolthe shelf or the oven.
I
, Heat-resisant
plastic microwave
cookware
(safe to 450 OF) may be used, but

Notes:
Do not operate
the oven when
it
is empty
except
preheating.
OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
" Never
lean on or allow a child to swing on the door when it is open.
- Use hot pads to handle
food containers. Microwave
energy does not heat containers,
but the heat
from the food
can make the container
hot.
" Do not use newspaper
or other printed paper
in the oven.
" Do not dry flowers,
fruit, herbs, wood, paper, gourds, or clothes
in the oven.
" Do not start a microwave
oven when it is empty. This may shorten
the life-span
of the oven. To practice
programming,
put a container
of water
in the oven before
starting.
" Do not
try
to melt paraffin
wax
in the oven. Paraffin wax will not melt
in a microwave
oven because
it
allows microwaves
to pass through
it.
" Do not operate
the microwave
oven unless the glass turntable
is securely
in place and can rotate
freely.
The turntable
can rotate
in either direction. Make sure
the turntable
is correct-side
up in the oven.
Handle your
turntable
with care when removing
it from the oven to avoid breaking
it.
" When using a browning dish,
the browning
dish bottom must be at least 3/16
inch above
the turntable.
Follow the directions
supplied with
the browning
dish.
" Never cook or reheat a whole egg
inside the shell. Steam buildup
in whole eggs may cause them to
burst, and possibly damage
the oven. Slice hard-boiled
eggs before heating.
In rare cases, poached
eggs
have been known to explode. Cover poached
eggs and allow a standing
time of one minute before
cutting
into them.
" For best results, stir any
liquid severa_ times during heating or reheating.
Liquids heated
in certain
containers
(especially
containers shaped
like cylinders) may overheat.
The liquid may splash during or after
heating or when adding
ingredients
(coffee granules,
tea bags, etc.). This can harm you or damage
the
microwave
oven.
" Microwaves
may not reach the center of a roast. The heat spreads
from the outer
to the center cooked
areas,
just as in regular oven cooking.
This is one of the reasons for
letting some foods (for example,
roasts or
baked potatoes)
stand for a while after cooking,
or for stirring some foods during
the cooking
time.
" Do not deep
fry
in the oven. Microwavable
utensils are not suitable and it is difflcult
to maintain
appropriate
deep-frying
temperatures.
" Do not overcaok
potatoes. At the end of the recommended
cooking
time, potatoes
should be slightly
firm
because
they will continue cooking during standing
time. After mlcrowavlng,
let potatoes
stand for 5
minutes. They will
finish cooking while
standing.

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
readiness
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 cool<. Food at room temperature
will
reheat quicker
than food at refrigerator
temperature.
Composition
of Food
* Food with a lot of fat and sugar will heat
faster
than
food containing
a lot of water.
Fat and sugar will also reach a higher
temperature
than water
in 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 will cook faster
than
larger pieces. Also, same shaped pieces cool<
more evenly
than differently
shaped pieces.
* With foods
that have different
thlcknesses,
the
thinner parts will 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, and keep food moist.
You can use any covering
that
lets microwaves
pass through. See "Getting
to Know Your Microwave
Oven"
for materials
that microwaves will
pass through.
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, you can program a "0" power
second stage of the cooking
cycle. See Two-Stage Cooking.
* 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 to remove the food
from the oven and take
it to the serving
table. However,
with a larger, denser food
item, 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 - this
prevents cracking.
* Do not
let food or a container
touch
the top or sides of
the oven. This will prevent
possible arcing. Arcing
is a
spark that can cause damage
to the oven interior.
EN-12
Using Aluminum Foil
NOTE:Metal
containers
should not be used in a microwave
oven. There are, however,
some exceptions.
If you
have purchased
food 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 top of the food. When using aluminum containers without
package
instructions,
follow
these guidelines:
• Place the container
in a glass bowl and add some water so that
it covers the bottom of the container
more than 1/4
in. (.60 cm). This ensures even heating of the container
bottom.
• Always
remove the lid to avoid damage
to the oven.
• Use only undamaged
containers.
• Do not use containers
taller
than 3/4
in. (1.9 cm).
• The container must be at least half
filled.
• To avoid arcing,
there must be a minimum of 1/4
in. (.60 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, with small pieces of aluminum
foil, parts of food
that may cook quickly;
such as wing tips and leg
ends of poultry.
• Heating
food
in aluminum
foil containers
usually
takes up to double
the time compared
to reheating
in
plastic, glass, china, or paper containers.
The time when food
is ready will vary depending
upon the type
of container
used.
• Let food stand for 2 to 3 minutes after heating so that heat is spread evenly
throughout
container.
Cooking
you should not do in your microwave
oven
• Do not put canned
foods
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.

OPERATING
TIPS
• For best results, remove
fish, shellfish, meat, and
poultry
from its original
closed paper or plastic
package
(wrapper). Otherwise,
the wrap will hold
steam and juice close to the foods, which can
cause the outer surface of the foods
to cook.
• For best results, roll your ground meat
into a ball
before
freezing.
During
the DEFROST cycle,
the
microwave
will signal when it is time to turn the
meat over. Scrape off any excess frost
from
the meat and continue defrosting.
• Place foods
in a shallow container
or on a
microwave
roasting
rack to catch drippings.
This table shows food type selections and the
weights you can set for each type. For best results,
loosen or remove covering
on food.

example,
4 ounces equals 1/4 pound). However,
in order

DEFROSTING
TIPS
• When using Auto Defrost,
the weight
to be entered
is the
net weight
(the weight
of the food minus the container).
• Before starting, make sure to remove any and all metal
twist-ties
that often come with frozen
food bags, and
replace
them with strings or elastic bands.
• Open containers,
such as cartons, before placing
in the
oven.
• Always
slit or pierce plastic pouches or packaging.
" If food
is foil wrapped,
remove foil and place
food
in a
suitable container.
• Slit
the skin of skinned
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.
• 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.
EN-23
SENSOR OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Sensor Cool< allows you to cook most of your favorite
foods without
selecting
cooking
times and power
levels.
The display will
indicate
Sensing during
the initial
sensing
period.
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 will
tell
the oven how much longer
to heat. The display will show the
remaining
heating
time. For best results for cooking by
Sensor, follow
these recommendations.
1 . Food cooked with
the sensor system should be at normal
storage temperature.
2. Always use microwavable
containers.
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.
5. Foods should always be covered with microwavable
plastic wrap, waxed paper, or a lid. Never use tight-
sealing plastic
covers. They can prevent steam from
escaping and cause food to overcook.
6. Do not open the door or touch
the STOP 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.

TIPS FOR CONVECTION
COOKING
This section gives you cooking
instructions
and procedures
for
operating
each convection
function.
Please read these
instructions
carefully.
Convection
cooking
circulates
hot air through
the oven cavity
with a fan. The constantly moving air surrounds the food to heal
the outer portion quickly, creating even browning and sealed-in
flavor by the constant motion of hot air over the food surfaces.
Your oven uses convection
cooking whenever
you use the
Convection
Button. DO NOT USE THE OVEN WITHOUT THE
TURNTABLE
iN PLACE.
1. Always use the metal
rack on the turntable or the fiat
rectangular
wire
rack when convection
cooking.
2. Do not cover
turntable
or metal
rack with aluminum
foil.
It interferes with
the flow of air
that cooks the food.
3. Round pizza pans are excellent
cooking
utensils
for many convection-only
items. Choose pans that do not
have extended
handles.
4.Use convection cooking
for items like souffles, breads, cookies,
angel
food cakes, pizza, and for some meat and fish.
5. You do not need
to use any special
techniques to adapt your
favorite oven recipes to convection cooking; however, you need
to lower oven temperature
by 25°F from recommended
temperature
mentioned
in package
instructions when cooking
packaged
food
in convection mode.
6. 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.
7. All heat-proof
cookware
or metal utensils can be used in
convection
cooking.
8. Use metal utensils
only for convection
cooking.
Never use for microwave or combination
cooking since arcing
and damage
to the oven may occur.
9. After preheating,
if you do not open the door,
the oven will
automatically
hold at the preheated
temperature
for 30
minutes.
PRECAUTIONS
• The oven cavity, door,
turntable,
roller
rest, metal
tray,
metal
rack, and cooking utensils will become very hot.
USE THICK OVEN GLOVES when removing
the food,
cooking utensils, metal
rack, metal tray, and turntable
from
the over after convection
cooking.
• Do not use lightweight
plastic
containers,
plastic wraps, or
paper products
during any convection.

TI PS FOR COMBINATION
COOK! NG
MICRO+CONV COMBICOOK (Control panel Feature 4)
This section gives you instructions
to operate
each combination
cooking
function.
Please read these instructions
carefully.
Sometimes
combination
microwave-convection
cooking
is
suggested
to get the best cooking
results since it shortens
the
cooking
time for foods
that normally
need a long time to cook.
This cooking
process also leaves meats juicy on the inside and
crispy on the outside.
In combination
cooking,
the convection
heat and microwave
energy alternate
automatically.
HELPFUL HINTS FOR COMBINATION
COOKING
1. 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 your 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 microwavable
safe dish between
the pan and the
metal
rack.
-We recommend
you use the metal
rack supplied with your
oven.
It has rubber
feet
that helps prevent arcing.
-If arcing occurs with other baking cookware,
do not use
them for combination
cooking.
Example: To bake 15 minutes at 325 degress default.

Caring for Your Microwave Oven
In order
to ensure that your microwave
oven looks good and works well
for a long time, you
should maintain
it properly.
For proper
care, please
follow
these instructions
carefully.
Far interior surfaces: Wash often with warm,
sudsy
water and a sponge or soft
cloth.
Use only mild, nonabrasive
soaps or a mild detergent.
Be sure to keep the areas
clean where
the door and
oven frame
touch when
dosed. Wipe well with
clean cloth.
Far exterior surfaces and control panel: Use a
soft cloth with spray glass
cleaner. Apply
the spray 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.
Over
time, surfaces may stain as a result of food
particles
splattering
during cooking.
This is normal.
Far stubborn
soil: Boil a cup of water
in the oven
for two to three 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.
NOTE: Use the Clean option
in
Clock & Settings for a preset timed
cycle
for stubborn soil cleaning.
To clean glass
turntable
and
turntable
support: Wash

Can
I use either metal
or aluminum
pans
in
my microwave
oven?
You can use aluminum
foil
for shielding
(use small,
flat
pieces),
small
skewers,
and
shallow
foil
trays
(if
tray
is no taller
than 3/4
in.
[1.9 cm] deep
and
is filled
with
food
to
absorb
microwave
energy).
Never
allow
metai
to
touch
walls
or door.
Is it normal
for the turntable
to turn in
either direction?
Sometimes
the door of my microwave
oven
appears wavy.
Is this normal?
What
are the humming noises that
I hear when
my microwave
oven is operating?
Yes. The turntable
reverses rotation each time the
microwave
oven door
is opened and closed. This helps
cook food evenly.
This appearance
is normal and does not affect
the operation
of your oven.
You may hear the sound of the transformer
when
the magnetron
tube cycles on.
Why does the dish become hot when I microwave
food
in it? I thought
that
this should
not happen.
What
does "standing
time" mean?
As the food becomes hot it will conduct
the
heat to the dish. Be prepared
to use hot pads to
remove
food after cooking.
"Standing
time" means that after
the timed cooking period
ends, food should be allowed
to stand either
inside or
outside of the oven to completely
finish cooking. Outside
oven standing
time will allow the oven to be available
for
other use. For inside oven standing
time, you can program
a "0" power second stage of the cooking cycle. See Two-
Stage Cooking.
Why does steam come out of the air
exhaust vent?
Steam is normally
produced
during cooking.
The
microwave
oven has been designed
to vent this steam.
Can I pop popcorn
in my microwave
oven?
Yes. Use the microwave
oven popcorn
selection. Do not use
regular
paper bags. Do not re-pop unpopped
kernels.
Do not pop popcorn
in glass cookware.
Remove the metal
shelf
from microwave
oven when cooking popcorn.
