Food Preparation
Follow these Safety Precautions when cooking in your oven.
IMPORTANT
Proper cooking depends upon the power, the time setting
and quantity of food. If you use a smaller portion than
recommended but cook at the time for the recommended
portion, fire could result.
CAUTION: When using pre-packaged microwave popcorn, you
can follow recommended package instructions or use the Popcorn
button (refer to page 10). Otherwise, the popcorn may not pop
adequately or may ignite and cause a fire. Never leave the oven
unattended when popping popcorn. Allow the popcorn bag to cool
before opening, and always open the bag facing away from your
face and body to prevent steam burns.
1) HOME CANNING / STERILIZING / DRYING FOODS / SMALL
QUANTITIES OF FOODS
• DO NOT use your oven for home canning. Your oven cannot
maintain the food at the proper canning temperature. The food
may be contaminated and then spoil.
• 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.
• DO NOT dry meats, herbs, fruits or vegetables in your oven.
Small quantities of food or foods with low moisture content can
dry out, scorch or catch on fire if overheated.
2) POPCORN
Popcorn may be popped in a microwave oven corn popper.
Microwave popcorn that pops in its own package is also available.
Follow popcorn manufacturers’ directions and use a brand suitable
for the cooking power of your microwave oven.
4
Food Preparation (continued)
3) DEEP FAT FRYING
• DO NOT deep fat fry in your microwave oven. Cooking oils
may burst into flames and may cause damage to the oven and
may result in burns. Microwave utensils may not withstand the
temperature of the hot oil, and can shatter or melt.
8) THERMOMETERS
• DO NOT use a conventional meat
thermometer in
your oven. Arcing may occur.
Microwave safe thermometers are
available for both meat and candy.
4) FOODS WITH NONPOROUS SKINS
• DO NOT COOK / REHEAT WHOLE EGGS, WITH OR WITHOUT
THE SHELL.
Steam buildup in whole
eggs may cause them
to explode, and possibly
damage the oven or
cause injury. Reheating
SLICED hard-boiled eggs
and cooking SCRAMBLED eggs is safe.
• Potatoes, apples, whole squash
and sausages are examples of
foods with nonporous skins. These
types of foods must be pierced
before microwave cooking to
prevent them from exploding.
CAUTION: Cooking dry or old
potatoes can cause fire.
9) BABY FORMULA / BABY FOOD
• DO NOT heat baby formula or baby food in
the microwave oven. The glass jar or
surface of the food may appear warm while
the interior can be so hot as to burn the
infant’s mouth and esophagus.
10) REHEATING PASTRY PRODUCTS
• When reheating pastry products, check temperatures of any
fillings before eating. Some foods have fillings, which heat faster
and can be extremely hot, while the surface remains warm to the
touch (for example, jelly donuts).
11) GENERAL OVEN USAGE GUIDELINES
• DO NOT use the oven for any purpose other than the
preparation of food.
5) GLASS TRAY / COOKING CONTAINERS / FOIL
• Cooking containers get hot during microwaving. Heat is
transferred from the HOT food to the container and the Glass
Tray. Use pot holders when removing containers from the oven
or when removing lids or plastic wrap covers from cooking
containers, to avoid burns.
• The Glass Tray will get hot during cooking. It should be allowed
to cool before handling or before paper products, such as paper
plates or microwave popcorn bags, are placed in the oven for
microwave cooking.
• When using foil in the oven, allow at least 1-inch (2.5 cm) of
space between foil and interior oven walls or door.
• Dishes with metallic trim should not be used, as arcing
may occur.
6) PAPER TOWELS / CLOTHS
• DO NOT use paper towels or cloths that contain a synthetic fiber
woven into them. The synthetic fiber may cause the towel to
ignite. Use paper toweling under supervision.
7) BROWNING DISHES / OVEN COOKING BAGS
• Only use browning dishes that are designed
for microwave cooking. Check browning dish
information for instructions/heating chart.
DO NOT preheat browning dish more than six minutes.
• If an oven cooking bag is used for microwave cooking, prepare
according to package directions. DO NOT
use a wire twist-tie to close bag. Instead
use plastic ties, cotton string or a strip cut
from the open end of the bag.

BEFORE Reheating/Cooking:
1. The room temperature
surrounding the oven should be
below 95° F (35° C).
2. Food weight should exceed 4
oz. (110 g).
3. Be sure the glass tray, the
outside of the cooking
containers and the inside
of the microwave oven are
dry before placing food in
the oven. Residual beads of
moisture turning into steam
can mislead the sensor.

use tightly sealed plastic
containers—they can prevent
steam from escaping and
cause food to overcook.
DURING Reheating/Cooking:
DO NOT open the oven door until
two beeps sound and cooking time
appears in the display. Doing so
will cause inaccurate cooking since
the steam from food is no longer
contained within the oven cavity.

Food Characteristics
Food Characteristics
Covering
Bone and Fat
As with conventional cooking, moisture evaporates during microwave
cooking. Casserole lids or plastic wrap are used for a tighter seal. When using
plastic wrap, vent the plastic wrap by folding back part of the plastic wrap
from the edge of the dish to allow steam to escape. Loosen or remove plastic
wrap as recipe directs for stand time. When removing plastic wrap covers,
as well as any glass lids, be careful to remove them away from you to avoid
steam burns. Various degrees of moisture retention are also obtained by using
wax paper or paper towels.
Both bone and fat affect cooking. Bones may cause
irregular cooking. Meat next to the tips of bones may
overcook while meat positioned under a large bone,
such as a ham bone, may be undercooked. Large
amounts of fat absorb microwave energy and the meat next to these areas
may overcook.
Density
Porous, airy foods such as breads, cakes or rolls take
less time to cook than heavy, dense foods such as
potatoes and roasts. When reheating donuts or other
foods with different centers be very careful. Certain
foods have centers made with sugar, water, or fat and
these centers attract microwaves (for example, jelly
donuts). When a jelly donut is heated, the jelly can become extremely hot
while the exterior remains warm to the touch. This could result in a burn if
the food is not allowed to cool properly in the center.
Quantity
Two potatoes take longer to cook than one potato. As the
quantity of the food decreases so does the cooking time.
Overcooking will cause the moisture content in the food to decrease and a
fire could result. Never leave microwave unattended while in use.
Cooking Time
Cooking times will vary because of food shape variations, starting
temperature, and regional preferences. Always cook food for the minimum
cooking time given in a recipe and check for doneness. If the food is
undercooked, continue cooking. It is easier to add time to an undercooked
product. Once the food is overcooked, nothing can be done.
Stirring
Stirring is usually necessary during microwave cooking. Always bring the
cooked outside edges toward the center and the less cooked center portions
toward the outside of the dish.
Rearranging
Rearrange small items such as chicken pieces, shrimp, hamburger patties or
pork chops. Rearrange pieces from the edge to the center and pieces from the
center to the edge of the dish.
Shape
Uniform sizes heat more evenly. The thin end of a
drumstick will cook more quickly than the meaty end.
To compensate for irregular shapes, place thin parts
toward the center of the dish and thick pieces toward
the edge.
Turning
Size
Standing Time
Thin pieces cook more quickly than thick pieces.
Most foods will continue to cook by conduction after the microwave oven
is turned off. After cooking meat, the internal temperature will rise 5 °F to
15 °F (3 °C to 8 °C), if allowed to stand, tented with foil, for 10 to 15 minutes.
Casseroles and vegetables need a shorter amount of standing time, but this
standing time is necessary to allow foods to complete cooking to the center
without overcooking on the edges.
Starting Temperature
Foods that are at room temperature take less time to cook than
if they are chilled, refrigerated or frozen.
Cooking Techniques
Piercing
Foods with skins or membranes must be pierced, scored or have a strip of skin
peeled before cooking to allow steam to escape. Pierce clams, oysters, chicken
livers, whole potatoes and whole vegetables. Whole apples or new potatoes
should have a 1-inch strip of skin peeled before cooking. Score sausages and
frankfurters. Do not Cook/Reheat whole eggs, with or without the shell. Steam
buildup in whole eggs may cause them to explode, and possibly damage
the oven or cause injury. Reheating SLICED hard-boiled eggs and cooking
SCRAMBLED eggs is safe.
Browning
It is not possible to stir some foods to distribute the heat evenly. At times,
microwave energy will concentrate in one area of the food. To help ensure
even cooking, these foods need to be turned. Turn over large foods, such as
roasts or turkeys, halfway through cooking.
Test for Doneness
The same tests for doneness used in conventional cooking may be used for
microwave cooking. Meat is done when fork-tender or splits at fibers. Chicken
is done when juices are clear yellow and drumstick moves freely. Fish is done
when it flakes and is opaque. Cake is done when a toothpick or cake tester is
inserted and comes out clean.
Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States Department of
Agriculture’s recommended temperatures.
To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a thick or dense area
away from fat or bone. NEVER leave the thermometer in the food during
cooking, unless it is approved for microwave oven use.
Foods will not have the same brown appearance as conventionally cooked foods
or those foods which are cooked utilizing a browning feature. Meats and poultry
may be coated with browning sauce, Worcestershire sauce, barbecue sauce or
shake-on browning sauce. To use, combine browning sauce with melted butter
or margarine and brush on before cooking. For quick breads or muffins, brown
sugar can be used in the recipe in place of granulated sugar, or the surface can be
sprinkled with dark spices before cooking.
Temp
160 °F
165 °F

Spacing
Individual foods, such as baked potatoes, cupcakes and appetizers, will cook
more evenly if placed in the oven equal distances apart. When possible,
arrange foods in a circular pattern.

Care and Cleaning of Your Microwave Oven
Please see below and the following page
for particular cleaning instructions for
each section of the oven.
BEFORE CLEANING: Unplug oven at wall
outlet. If outlet is inaccessible, leave oven
door open while cleaning.
AFTER CLEANING: Be sure to place the
Roller Ring and the Glass Tray in the proper
position and press Stop/Reset Button to
clear the Display.
1. Outside oven surfaces: Clean with a
damp cloth. To prevent damage to the
operating parts inside the oven, water
should not be allowed to seep into
ventilation openings.
2. Label: Do not remove. Wipe with a
damp cloth.
3. Inside the Oven: Wipe with a damp
cloth after using. Mild detergent may
be used if needed. Do not use harsh
detergents or abrasives.
4. Oven Door: Wipe with a soft dry cloth
when steam accumulates inside or
around the outside of the oven door.
During cooking, especially under high
humidity conditions, steam is given
off from the food. (Some steam will
condense on cooler surfaces, such as
the oven door. This is normal.) Inside surface is covered with a heat and vapor barrier film. Do not remove.
5. Oven Cavity Floor: Clean the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent, water or window cleaner, and dry.
6. Wave Guide Cover: Do not remove Wave Guide Cover. It is important to keep cover clean in the same manner as the inside of the
oven.
7. Control Panel: The Control Panel is covered with a removable protective film to prevent scratches during shipping. Small bubbles
may appear under this film, so if this is the case, remove by applying masking or clear tape to an exposed corner and pull gently. If
the Control Panel becomes wet, clean it with a soft dry cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives.
8. Glass Tray: Remove and wash in warm soapy water or in a dishwasher.
9. Roller Ring: Roller Ring may be washed in mild soapy water or dishwasher. These areas should be kept clean to avoid excessive noise.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE OVEN CLEAN AND DRY. FOOD RESIDUE AND CONDENSATION MAY CAUSE
RUSTING OR ARCING AND DAMAGE TO THE OVEN. AFTER USE, WIPE DRY ALL SURFACES,

Before Requesting Service
See below before calling for service, as most problems can easily be remedied by following these simple solutions:
The oven causes TV
interference.
Some radio and TV interference might occur when you cook with the microwave
oven. This interference is similar to the interference caused by small appliances
such as mixers, vacuums, blow dryers, etc. It does not indicate a problem with
your oven.
Steam accumulates
on oven door and
warm air comes from
the oven vents.
During cooking, steam and warm air are given off from the food. Most of the
steam and warm air are removed from the oven by the air which circulates in the
oven cavity. However, some steam will condense on cooler surfaces such as the
oven door. This is normal. After use, the oven should be wiped dry (see page 15).
The oven is not plugged in securely or needs to be reset; remove plug from
outlet, wait ten seconds and re-insert.
Oven will not turn on.
Main circuit breaker or main fuse is tripped; reset main circuit breaker or replace
main fuse.
There is a problem with the outlet; plug another appliance into the outlet to
check if it is working.
The door is not completely closed; close the oven door securely.
