COOKWARE GUIDE
Microwave Cooking
Most heat-resistant, nonmetallic cookware is safe for
use in your microwave oven.
However, to test cookware before using, follow these
steps:
e 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

2. Measure 1 cup (250 mi) 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.
Combination Cooking
» Glass or glass-ceramic baking containers are
recommended. Do not use items with metal trim as it
may cause arcing (sparking) with oven wall or oven

TIPS FOR MICROWAVE COOKING
BROWNING
Meat and poultry with high fat content that are cooked
for 10 or 15 minutes or longer will brown lightly. Foods
cooked a shorter time can be brushed with a browning
agent, such as Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, or
barbecue sauce.
COVERING
A cover traps heat and steam and causes the food to
cook more quickly. Use a lid or microwave-safe plastic
wrap with one corner folded back to vent the excess
steam. Lids on glass casseroles can become hot
during cooking. Handle carefully. Waxed paper will
prevent the food from splattering in the oven and help
retain heat. When warming bread items, use waxed
paper, napkins, or paper towels. To absorb extra
moisture, wrap sandwiches and fatty foods in paper
towels.
SPACING
Arrange individual foods, such as baked potatoes,
cupcakes, and hors d'oeuvres in a circle and at least
1 in. (2.5 cm) apart. This will help the food cook more
evenly.
STIRRING
Stirring blends flavors and redistributes the heat in
foods. Always stir from the outside toward the center
of the dish. Food at the outside of the dish heats first.
TURNING
Large foods, such as roasts and whole poultry, should
be turned so that the top and bottom cook evenly. Also
turn over chicken pieces and chops.
CLEANING
Wipe the oven inside and outside with a soft cloth and
a mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe dry.
This should be done weekly or more often, if needed.
Never use cleaning powders or rough pads.
Excessive oil splatters on the inside top will be difficult
to remove if left for many days. Wipe splatters with a
wet paper towel, especially after cooking chicken or
bacon.
REMOVABLE PARTS
The metal rack, glass turntable and turntable roller
rest are removable. They should be hand-washed in
warm (not hot) water with a mild detergent and a soft
cloth. Once they are clean, rinse well and dry with a
soft cloth. Never use cleaning powders, steel wool, or
rough pads.
10
ARRANGEMENT
Do not stack food. Arrange in a single layer in the dish
for more even cooking. Because dense foods cook
more slowly, place thicker portions of meat, poultry,
fish, and vegetables toward the outside of the dish.
TESTING FOR DONENESS
Because foods cook quickly in a microwave oven, you
need to test frequently for doneness.
STANDING TIME
Depending on density, food often needs to stand from
2 to 15 minutes either in or outside of the oven after
cooking power shuts off. Outside of the oven, you
usually need to cover food during standing time to
retain heat. Remove most foods when they are slightly
undercooked and they will finish cooking during
standing time. The internal temperature of food will
rise about 10°F (6°C) during standing time.
SHIELDING
To prevent some portions of rectangular or square
dishes from overcooking, you may need to shield
them with small strips of aluminum foil to block the
microwaves. You can also cover poultry legs and
wing tips with foil to keep them from overcooking.
Always keep foil at least 1 in. (2.5 cm) from the
oven walls to prevent arcing.
PIERCING
Pierce the shell, skin, or membrane of foods before
cooking to prevent them from bursting. Foods that
require piercing include yolks and whites of eggs, hot
dogs, clams, oysters, and whole vegetables, such as
potatoes and squash.
* Removable parts may be cleaned at the sink. Be
careful not to chip or scratch the edges as this may
cause them to break during use.
e The glass turntable may also be cleaned in a
dishwasher.
e The turntable roller rest should be cleaned regularly.
SPECIAL CARE
For best performance and safety, the inner door panel
and the oven front frame should be free of food or
grease buildup. Wipe often with a mild detergent; then
rinse and wipe dry. Never use cleaning powders or
rough pads.
After cleaning the control panel, touch STOP/CLEAR
to clear any entries that might have been entered
accidentally while cleaning the panel.

for frozen foods, because the oven automatically sets
the defrosting times for each food item according to the
weight you enter. For added convenience, the AUTO
DEFROST includes a built-in tone mechanism that
reminds you to check, turn over, separate, or rearrange
the food during the defrost cycle. Four different
defrosting options are provided.

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 heat 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 when
convection cooking.
2. Do not cover the 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 souffiés,
breads, cookies, angel food cakes, pizza, and for
some meat and fish cooking.
5. Your oven comes equipped with a metal tray
which can be used for cooking in convection mode
or combination mode.
6. You do not need to use any special techniques
to adapt your favorite oven recipes to convection
cooking; however, in general you need to lower
the oven temperature by 25°F (14°C) from the
recommended temperature mentioned in package
instructions when cooking packaged food 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 you do 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 tables in this Use and Care Guide.
10. Use metal utensils only for convection cooking.
Never use for microwave or combination cooking
since arcing and damage to the oven may occur.
11. After preheating, if you do not open the door,
the oven will automatically hold at the preheated
temperature for 30 minutes.
PRECAUTIONS
e 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 oven after convection cooking.
* Do not use lightweight plastic containers, plastic
wraps, or paper products during any convection
cycle.
USING YOUR CONVECTION OVEN
AUTO BAKE TABLE
AUTO BAKE
To automatically bake frozen pizza, muffins, biscuits
and frozen French fries using both microwave and
convection energy alternately:
Example: To bake 6 muffins.
o Muffins and biscuits require a preheat cycle and
should be placed on the rack after the signal
sounds.
* Frozen pizza MUST be placed directly on the
convection cooking rack. DO NOT use a metal
pizza tray or aluminum foil.
e Muffins, biscults, and dinner rolis can use metal
muffin tins if glass pan is not available.
» Breadsticks and frozen French fries can be
placed on a small shallow metal pan, such as a

CONVECTION COOKING Guide
1. Always use the metal rack when convection
baking.
2. Aluminum pans conduct heat quickly. For most
convection baking, light, shiny finishes give the best
results because they prevent overbrowning in the
time it takes to cook the center areas. Pans with dull
3. Dark or nonshiny finishes, glass, and pyroceram
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 little as possible.
(satin-finish) bottoms are recommended for cake
pans and pie pans for best bottom browning.

HEATING/REHEATING GUIDE
To heat or reheat successfully in a microwave oven, it is important to follow several guidelines. Measure the
amount of food in order to determine the time needed to reheat. Arrange the food in a circular pattern for best
results. Room temperature food will heat faster than refrigerated food. Canned foods should be taken out of the
can and placed in a microwave-safe container. The food will heat more evenly if covered with a microwave-safe
lid or vented plastic wrap”. Remove cover carefully to prevent steam burns. Use the following table as a guide
for reheating cooked food.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Questions and Answers
Operation
Question
Answer
Why is the oven light not on during
cooking?
Is there a clock display?
Is there no clock display?
Bulb may be burned out, requiring replacement.
Set a cook time. Touch START.
Check the house circuit safety device.
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.
Will the microwave oven be damaged if it
operates empty?
Yes. Never operate the oven empty or without the glass turntable.
Does microwave energy pass through the
viewing screen in the door?
No. The metal screen bounces the energy back to the oven cavity.
The holes (or ports) allow only light to pass through. They do not
let microwave energy pass through.
Why does a tone sound when a pad on the
control panel is touched?
The tone tells you that the setting has been entered.
Can the microwave oven be damaged if
food is cooked for too long?
Like any other cooking appliance, it is possible to overcook food
to the point that the food creates smoke and even possibly fire
and damage to the inside of the oven. It is always best to be near
the oven while you are cooking.
When the oven is plugged into the wall
outlet for the first time, it doesn't work
properly. What is wrong?
The microcomputer controliing your oven may temporarily become
scrambied and fail to function as programmed when you plug it in
for the first time or when power resumes after a power interruption.
Unplug the oven from the 120-volt household outiet and then plug
it back in to reset the microcomputer by resetting the clock.
Why is there light reflection around the
outer case?
This light is from the oven light which is located between the
oven cavity and the outer wall of the oven.
What are the various sounds heard when
the microwave oven is operating?
The clicking sound is caused by a mechanical switch turning the
microwave oven's magnetron ON and OFF.
The heavy hum and clunk is from the change in power the
magnetron draws as it is turned ON and OFF by a mechanical
switch. The change in blower speed is from the change in line
voltage caused by the magnetron being turned ON and OFF.

for one of these reasons:
* Eggs vary in size.
* Eggs are at room temperature one time and at refrigerator
temperature another time.
* Eggs continue cooking during standing time.
Why do baked apples sometimes burst The peel has not been removed from the top half of each apple
