To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
- Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when paper, plastic or other combustible materials are placed inside the oven while microwave cooking.
- Remove wire twist-ties and metal handles from paper or plastic containers before placing them in the oven.
- Do not use the oven for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food in the oven when not in use.
- If materials inside the oven ignite, keep the oven door closed, turn the oven off and shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel. If the door is opened, the fire may spread.
- Do not use the Sensor Features twice in succession on the same food portion. If food is undercooked after the first countdown, use COOK BY TIME for additional cooking time.
Do not operate the oven without the turntable in place.
The tumntable must be unrestricted so it can turn.
Potentially hot surfaces include the oven door, floor, walls, oven rack and tumtable.
Don’t defrost frozen beverages in namow-necked bottles (especially carbonated beverages). Even if the container is open, pressure can build up. This can cause the container to burst, possibly resulting in injury.
Foods cooked in liquids (such as pasta) may tend to boil more rapidly than foods containing less moisture. Should this occur, refer to the Care and Cleaning of the oven section for instructions on how to clean the inside of the oven.
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.
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. The container may feel cooler than the formula really is. Always test the formula before feeding the baby.
u Do not attempt to deep fry in the oven.

NOTICE—PACEMAKERS

WARNING

Most pacemakers are shielded from interference from electronic products, including microwaves. However, patients with pacemakers may wish to consult their physicians if they have concerns.

ARCING

WARNING

Arcing can occur during both speed cooking and microwave cooking. If you see arcing, press the Clear/Off pad and correct the problem.

Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is caused by:

Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.
Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennas).
Use foil only as recommended in this manual.
Metal cookware used during either speedcook or microwave cooking (except for the pans provided with the oven).
Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or goldrimmed dishes, in the oven.
Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being used in the oven.

FOODS

WARNING

When microwaving, place all foods and containers on the clear glass tray.
Do not pop popcorn in your oven unless in a special microwave popcorn accessory or unless you use popcorn labeled for use in microwave ovens.
Do not boil eggs in this oven. Pressure will build up inside egg yolk and will cause it to burst, possibly resulting in injury.
Do not operate the oven without food inside. This may cause damage to the oven. 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.
SUPERSATURATED WATER
Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea, are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is not always present.
THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

Do not overheat the liquid.
Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the container.
Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.

Oven-safe cookware for Baking, Warming & Proofing

The oven and door will get very hot when baking, warming or proofing.

WARNING

Cookware will become hot. Oven mitts will be needed to handle the cookware.
Do not cover the turntable, wire oven rack, trays or any part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause arcing in the oven.
Use the wire oven rack and place cookware on the glass tray when baking on two levels.
Any oven-safe dish can be used in your oven. Place them directly on the trays.
Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.
Use of the clear glass tray when baking, warming or proofing will result in inferior cooking performance.

The turntable must always be in place when using the oven. Oven-safe
cookware

For two-level baking, place food in a baking dish on the glass tray. Place your baking dish with food on top of the wire rack. Stand the rack with food on the glass tray.
Oven-safe cookware

MICROWAVE-SAFE COOKWARE

WARNING

Make sure to use suitable cookware during microwave cooking. 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.”

Place food or microwavable container directly on the clear glass tray to cook your food.
Use of the non-stick metal tray during microwave cooking will result in inferior cooking performance.
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 30-45 seconds at high. If the dish heats, it should not be used for microwaving.
How to test for a microwave-safe dish.
Cookware may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated food. Oven mitts may be needed to handle the cookware.
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.
Use foil only as directed in this manual. When using foil in the oven, keep the foil at least 1″ away from the sides of the oven.
Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.
If you use a meat thermometer while cooking, make sure it is safe for use in microwave ovens.
Some foam 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.
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.
Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use in microwave ovens. Check the package for proper use.
“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 immediately 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.
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 overcooking, the food and cookware could ignite.

Follow these guidelines:

Use microwave-safe plastics only and use them in strict compliance with the cookware manufacturer’s recommendations.
Do not microwave empty containers.
Do not permit children to use plastic cookware without complete supervision.

The turntable must always be in place when using the oven.
Follow these guidelines

The clear glass tray should always be in place when microwaving.

Baking

Baking allows you to cook foods the same way as a conventional oven, using a heating element to raise the temperature of the air inside the oven. Any oven temperature from 250°F to 450°F may be set.
A fan gently circulates heated air throughout the oven, over and around the food. Because the heated air is kept constantly moving, not permitting a layer of cooler air to develop around the food, some foods cook slightly faster than in regular oven cooking.
Before you begin, make sure the turntable is in place.

CAUTION

When baking, remember that the oven, door and dishes will be very hot!

The tumntable must always be in place when using the oven.

Put food or oven-safe cookware directly on the **glass tray to bake.

To use the Steam Clean feature, wipe grease and soils from the oven. Pour one cup of water into the bottom of the oven. Close the door. Press the Options pad, select Steam Clean, and then press Start. The oven door will lock. You can not open the door during the 30 minute steam clean as this will decrease the steam clean performance. At the end of the steam clean cycle the door will unlock. Wipe out any excess water and any remaining soil.

Self Clean Mode
Read Self-Cleaning Oven Safety Instructions at the beginning of this manual before using Self Clean Mode.
Self-clean uses very high temperatures to clean the oven interior. The oven door will lock when using this feature.
Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe up grease and soils from the oven. Remove all items from the oven other than enameled (dark color) racks. Shiny or silver racks and any cookware or other items should all be removed from the oven before initiating a self-clean cycle. Close the door. Press the Options pad, select Self Clean, and a default self-clean time is displayed.
The clean time can be changed to 3:00, 4:00, or 5:00 hours by using the selector dial. For heavily soiled ovens, the maximum 5 hour clean time is recommended. If you wish to use the default time, press the Start pad immediately after selecting the Self Clean. The oven will turn off automatically when the self-clean cycle is complete. The door will stay locked until the oven has cooled down. After the oven has cooled down wipe any ash out of the oven.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well ventilated room.

Lower Oven Racks

The racks that were provided with your oven (dark enameled racks, not shiny) may remain in the oven during the self-cleaning cycle without being damaged.
To manually clean racks, use warm, soapy water. Make sure not to wash the rack slides on an extension rack.
If racks become more difficult to remove from the oven, put some vegetable oil on a soft cloth or paper towel and rub onto the oven rack supports. Do not wipe the oil on an extension rack slide.
NOTE: Using other cooking oils will cause a discoloring or a rust like color residue on the racks and cavity sides.
To clean this residue, use a soap and water or a vinegar and water solution. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
Periodically, after several self-clean cycles, the extension rack slides may need to be lubricated using the graphite lubricant shipped with your wall oven. To order additional temperature probes, see the Accessories and Consumer Support sections at the end of this manual.
Lower Oven Racks

Remove extension rack from the oven. See the Extension Oven Racks section.
Fully extend the rack on a table or countertop. Newspaper may be placed underneath the rack for easy clean up.
If there is debris in the slide tracks, wipe it away using a paper towel. NOTE: Any graphite lubricant wiped away must be replaced.
Shake the graphite lubricant before opening it. Starting with left slide mechanism of the rack, place four (4) small drops of lubricant on the two (2) bottom tracks of the slide close to the bearing carriers.
Repeat for the right slide mechanism of the rack.
Open and close the rack several times to distribute the lubricant.
Replace the cap on the lubricant and shake it again.
Turn the rack over and repeat steps 3, 4, 5 and 6.
Close the rack, turn rack right-side-up and place in the oven. See the Extension Oven Racks section.
Repeat above steps for each rack.

NOTE: Do not spray with cooking spray or other lubricant sprays.

Lower Oven Maintenance

Lower Oven Light Replacement

SHOCK OR BURN HAZARD: Before replacing oven light bulb, disconnect the electrical power to the oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or burn.

BURN HAZARD: The glass cover and bulb should be removed when cool. Touching hot glass with bare hands or a damp cloth can cause burns.

Disconnect power at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel.
Remove oven racks.
Slide a flat blade screwdriver between the housing and the glass light cover.
Support the glass light cover with two fingers to prevent the cover from falling to the bottom of the oven. Be careful not to chip the oven coating.
Gently twist the screwdriver blade to loosen the glass light cover.
Remove the glass light cover.
Remove the bulb by firmly grasping and sliding the bulb straight out until the two prongs have cleared the ceramic holder.
Do not touch the glass of the new replacement bulb with your fingers. It will cause the bulb to fail when it lights. Grasp the replacement bulb with a clean towel or facial tissue with the prongs facing down. Align the two prongs in the ceramic holder, pressing gently until the bulb is securely in the ceramic socket.
Slide the protective lens into the holder and push until the clips snap into the housing.
Reconnect power.

Use a small flat blade screwdriver to remove the lamp lens cover.
