Grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire - for the electric current if an electrical “ short occurs. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. See Installation Instructions. Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the oven is properly grounded. Do not use an extension cord. If the product power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install a three-slot receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a separate 60 hertz circuit with the electrical ratting as shown in specifications table. When the oven is on a circuit with other equipment, an increase in cooking times may be required and fuses can be blown. Microwave operates on standard household current, 110- 120V. Arcing If you see arcing, press STOP and correct the problem. Arcing is the term for sparks in your microwave oven. Arcing IS caused by: Incorrect installation of the metal shelf so that it is touching the microwave wall. Metal or foil touching the side of the oven. Use of foil which is not molded to the food. (The edges act as antennas). Other metals, such a twist ties, poultry pins or metallic- rimmed dishes, in the microwave. Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces used in the oven. Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall Feceptacle cover screw does not ground the ‘appliance unless the cover screw is metal, ‘and not insulated, and the wall - receptacle is grounded through the house wiring. Sm Usage situations where appliance's power cord will be disconnected infrequently: Because of potential safety hazards, we strongly recommend against the use of an adapter plug. If you still choose to use an adapter (where local codes permit), a temporary connection can be made to a properly grounded 2-prong wall receptacle using a UL listed adapter, available at most hardware stores. Have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded. When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter, always hold the adapter with one hand. Otherwise, the adapter ground terminal may break with repeated use. Should this happen, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has again been established. Usage situations where appliance’s power cord will be disconnected frequently: Do not use an adapter plug in these situations. Frequent disconnection of the power cord places undue strain on the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the adapter ground terminal. Have a qualified electrician replace the 2-prong wall receptacle with a 3-prong (grounding) receptacle before using the appliance. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS Federal Communications Commission Radio Frequency Interference Statement (U.S.A. Only) This equipment generates and uses ¡SM frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is in strict accordance with the manufacturers instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception. it has been type tested and found to comply with limits for ISM Equipment, pursuant to part 18 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation.

The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or television interference caused by unauthorized modification to this microwave oven. lt is the responsibility of the user to correct such interference. WARNING a. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. b. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. c. If an extension cord is used: 1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord set should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3- wire cord. 3. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be tripped over, snagged, or pulled on unintentionally. If you use an extension cord, the interior light may flicker and the blower sound may vary when the microwave oven is on. Cooking times may be longer, too. Radio Interference 1. Operation of the microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV or similar equipment. 2. When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the following measures: 1) Clean door and sealing surface of the oven. Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.

Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting. 22 - Cooking Charts Suggested power levels for cooking The 11 power levels available with this microwave will help you to adjust to the power output best suited for the food type you are preparing. As with any food preparation in the microwave, it is best to follow the microwave instructions that are printed on food packaging. The table below provides suggested power levels for various types of food that you can be prepare in the microwave. Suggestions for getting the best results 10 100% * Boiing water High * Cooking ground beef * Making candy * Cooking fresh fruits a vegetables * Cooking fish & poultry * Preheating browning dish » Reheating beverages * Cooking bacon slices 9 90% » Reheating meat slices quickly * Saute onions, celery & green peppers 8 80% * All reheating * Cooking scrambled eggs 7 70% * Cooking breads & cereal products * Cooking cheese dishes & veal * Cakes, muffins, brownies 8 cupcakes 6 60% * Cooking pasta 5 50% * Cooking meats & whole poultry * Cooking custard * Cooking spare ribs, rib roast & sirloin roast 4 40% * Cooking less tender cuts of meat * Reheating frozen packages foods 3 30% * Thawing meat, poultry á seafood * Cooking small quantities of food * Finish cooking casseroles, stew & some sauces. 2 20% * Softening butter & cream cheese * Heating small amounts of food 1 10% * Softening ice cream » Raise yeast dough 23 To help you achieve the best possible results from your microwave oven, read the following suggestions below; Storage temperature Foods taken from the freezer or refrigerator take longer to cook than the same foods would at room temperature. * Size Small pieces of food cook faster than large ones. Pieces similar in size and shape will cook more evenly when cooked together. For more even results, reduce the power levels when cooking large pieces of food. Natural moisture Very moist foods cook more evenly because microwave energy heats water molecules very efficiently. « Stirring Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetable from the outside to the center to distribute the heat more evenly. This will allow the food to cook faster. Constant stirring is not necessary. + Turn over items Turn over foods such as pork chops, roasts or whole cauliflower halfway through the cook time. This will help to expose all sides equally to microwave energy. * Food placement Place delicate areas of food items, such as asparagus tips, toward the center of the turntable tray. Food arrangement Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or salmon, with the thicker or meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable tray. + Letthe food stand After removing the food from the microwave, cover the food with foil or a casserole lid and let it stand to finish cooking. This will help the food finish in the center and avoids overcooking the out edges. The length of stand time depends on the density and surface area of the food items. « Wrapping in paper towels or waxed paper Sandwiches and many other food types containing pre- baked bread should be wrapped prior to placing in the microwave to help prevent the food items fro drying out while heating.

After heating, stir well. Let oven cool for at least 120, 240, | 5 minutes before using again. Beverages heated with the beverage 360 mi. category may be very hot. Remove the container with care. Microwave Terms Arcing Arcing Is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing Is caused by: The metal shelf being installed incorrectly and touching the microwave walls. The 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 waxed paper allows excess steam to escape. Shielding In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked foods to prevent over-browning. When micro waving, 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 microwave 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. 24 Cooking Cooking vegetables in your microwave Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with Rarely is extra water needed.

Cooking seafood in your microwave Place fish on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish. Be sure to always cook fish until it flakes easily with a fork. Use a tight cover to steam fish; a lighter cover of wax paper or paper towel provides less steaming. And be sure not to overcook fish; check it for doneness at a minimum cooking time before cooking longer. Fish steaks Up to 174 Ibs. Cook time: 7-11 min./ib.

Take special care to keep the inner door panel and oven from frame free of food and grease build-up. Never use rough scouring powder or pads on the microwave. Wipe the microwave oven inside and out with a soft cloth and warm (not hot) mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe completely dry. Wipe spatters immediately with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking greasy foods like chicken or bacon. Clean your microwave oven weekly or more often, if Follow these instructions to clean and care for your microwave oven: Keep the inside (cavity) of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the oven walls, causing the oven to work less efficiently. Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp, clean cloth and mild soap. DO NOT use harsh detergents or abrasive To help loosen baked-on food particles or liquids, heat 2 cups of water (add the juice of 1 lemon if you desire to keep the oven fresh smelling) in a 4 cup measuring glass at High power for 5 minutes or until boiling. Let stand in oven cavity for 1 or 2 minutes. Remove the glass turntable tray from the oven when cleaning the oven cavity or tray. To prevent the glass turntable from breaking, handle with care and do not put it in water immediately after cooking. Wash the turntable tray in warm sudsy water or in the dishwasher. Clean the outside surface of the microwave with soap and a clean damp cloth. Dry with a clean soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts of the oven, do not let water seep into any vents or openings. Wash the oven door window with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft clean cloth to avoid scratching. If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage. Never operate the oven without food in the oven cavity; this can damage the magnetron tube or glass tray. You may wish to leave a cup of water standing inside the oven when it is not in use to prevent damage if the oven is accidentally turned on.
