UTENSIL TEST
Dishes that do not absorb microwave energy are best for microwave cooking.
Lock on the label to verify that particular cups, glasses, plates are indeed
suitable, especially paper goods. If you are not sure, try this utensil test
to check. · Put the empty utensil in the microwave oven. · Put one cup of
water in a glass measure next to the empty utensil. · Heat on P-HI for 1
minute. · After 1 minute the water should be warm but the utensil should not.
If the utensil is warm, it is not suitable for microwave cooking.
COOKING UTENSILS
Recommended Use
· glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes – Use for heating or cooking. ·
Microwave browning dish – Use to brown the exterior of small items such as
steaks, chops, or
pancakes. follow the directions provided with you browning dish. ·
Microwaveable plastic wrap – Use to retain steam. Leave a small opening for
some steam to escape
and avoid placing it directly on the food. · Wax paper – Use as a cover to
prevent spattering. · Paper towels and napkins – Use for short term heating
and covering; they absorb excess moisture and
prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal
and can eatch fire. · Thermometers – Use only those labeled “Microwave Safe”
and follow all directions. Check the food in
several places. Conventional thermometers may be used once the food has been
removed from the oven.
Limited Use
· Aluminum foil – Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed
areas. Using too much foil can damage your oven, so be careful.
· Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware – use these if they are labeled “Microwave
Safe.” If they are not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used
safely. Never use dishes with metalic trim.
· Plastic – Use only if labeled “Microwave Safe.” Other plastics can melt. ·
Straw, wicker, and wood – Use only for short-term heating, as they can be
flammable.
Not Recommended
· Glass jars and bottles – Regular glass is too thin to be used in a
microwave, and can shatter. · Paper bags – These are a fire hazard, except for
popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use. · Styrofoam plates and cups
– These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food. · Plastic storage and
food containers – Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in the microwave.
· Metal utensils – These can damage your oven. Remove all metal before
cooking.

COOKING TECHNIQUES
Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat
evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and heats more
quickly, so stir from the outside to the center. The oven will turn off when
you open the door to stir your food.
Arrangement
arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with the
thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable where they receive
more microwave energy. To prevent overcooking, place thin or delicate parts
toward the center of the turntable.
Shielding
Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Areas
that need shielding include poultry wing-tips, the ends of poultry legs, and
corners of square baking dishes. Use only small amounts of aluminum foil.
Larger amounts can damage your oven. turning
Turning
Turn foods oven midway through cooking to expose all parts to microwave
energy. This is especially important with large items such as roasts. Standing
Standing
Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal heat and cotinue to cook for a
few minutes after the oven stops. Let foods stand to complete cooking,
especially foods such as roasts and whole vegetables. Roasts need this time to
complete cooking in the center without overcooking the outer areas. All
liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate, should be shaken or stirred when
cooking is complete. Let liquids stand a moment before serving. When heating
baby food, stir well and test the temperature before serving.
Adding Moisture
Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in
moisture content should be covered or allowed to stand so that the heat
disperses evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help it cook.

DEFROSTING GUIDE
GENERAL INFORMATION
Put the food on a microwave rack (roasts, bone-in pieces) or in a microwave
casserole (small pieces such as cubes or strips) or weigh at home on a kitchen
scale. Round number to the nearest tenth of a pound and choose that number
with each item pads.
The shape of food items, especially larger ones, will vary affect the way
defrost. Always check the status after the standing time. Fish, seafood and
poultry should still be somewhat icy in the center the held under cold running
water to finish defrosting. If more time is needed, use DEFROST by time to add
time in small increments.
Halfway through the defrosting process, a series of beeps will indicate that
it is time to change the position of the item being defrosted. The includes
turning over or rotating the item, separating defrosted pieces or sections, or
shielding.
Shielding means to use a 2-inch strip of aluminum foil to protect thinner or
unevenly shaped part from beginning to cook. Microwave energy will not
penetrate the foil. Some rules apply to the use of foil: Do not let the foil
pieces touch each other or the sides of the microwave oven. Be sure that all
ends are touched under and lie flat to the food. Remember to adjust foil when
a item is turned over and cover with wax paper.
To prepare food for freezer storage(and later defrosting), wrap tightly in
moisture proof packaging. If using freezer plastic bags, be sure to let all
the air out to prevent freezer bump on the food. Package so that food is as
evenly shaped as possible ease in defrosting

CARE OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
1. Turn the oven off before cleaning. 2. Keep the inside of the oven clean.
When food spatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls, wipe with a damp
cloth. Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets very dirty. The use of
harsh detergent or abrasives is not recommended. 3. The outside oven surface
should be cleaned with soap and water, rinsed and dried with a soft cloth. To
prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be
allowed to seep into the ventilation openings. 4. If the Control Panel becomes
wet, clean with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives on
Control Panel. 5. If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the
oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur when the microwave oven is
operated under high humidity conditions and in no way indicates malfunction of
the unit.
6. It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass tray for cleaning. Wash
the tray in warm sudsy water or in a dishwasher.
7. The roller guide and oven cavity floor should be cleaned regularly to
avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild
detergent water or window cleaner and dry. The roller guide may be washed in
mild sudsy water.
ROLLER GUIDE
1. The ROLLER GUIDE and oven floor should be cleaned frequently to prevent
excessive noise.
2. The ROLLER GUIDE MUST ALWAYS be used for cooking together with the Glass
Tray.
GLASS TRAY
1. DO NOT operate the oven without the Glass Tray in place.
2. DO NOT use any other Glass Tray with this oven.
3. If Glass Tray is hot, ALLOW TO COOL before cleaning or placing it in
water.
4. DO NOT cook directly on the Glass Tray.

USE YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN SAFELY
General Use
Do not attempt to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks. Do not place any
object between the oven front frame and the door or allow residue to build up
on sealing surfaces. Wipe with a mild detergent, rinse and dry. Never use
abrasive powders or pads. Do not subject the oven door strain or weight such
as a child hanging on an open door. This could cause the oven to fall forward
resulting in injury to you and damage to the oven. Do not operate the oven if
door seals or sealing surfaces are damaged, or if door is bent, or if hinges
are loose or broken. Do not operate the oven empty. This will damage the oven.
Do not attempt to dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven. They
may catch on fire. Do not use recycled paper products as they may contain
impurities which may cause sparks or fires. Do not hit or strike the control
panel with hard objects. This can damage the oven.
Food
Never use your microwave oven for home canning. The oven is not designed for
proper home canning. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to
consume. Always use the minimum recipe cooking time. It is better to undercook
rather than over cook foods. Undercooked foods can be returned to the oven for
more cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be done. Heat small
quantities of food or foods with low moisture carefully. These can quickly dry
out, burn or catch on fire. Do not heat eggs in the shell. Pressure may build
up and eggs can explode. Potatoes, apples, egg yolks and sausages are examples
of food with non-porous skins. These must be pierced before cooking to prevent
bursting. Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven. Always stir
liquids before heating. Heated liquids can erupt, if not mixed with air. Do
not pop popcorn in a paper bag unless it is the commercially prepared
Microwave Popcorn product. The kernels can overheat and ignite a brown paper
bag. Do not exceed the Microwave Popcorn manufacturers’ suggested popping
time. Longer popping does not yield more popcorn but it can result in scorch
burn of fire. Remember, the popcorn bag and tray can be too hot to handle.
Remove with caution and use pot holders.
ARCING
If you see arcing, press STOP/CLEAR 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). · Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold rimmed
dishes, in the microwave. · Recycled paper towels containing small metal
pieces being used in the microwave.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q : I accidentally ran my microwave oven without any food in it. Is it
damaged? A : Running the oven empty for a short time will not damage the oven.
However, it is not recommended. Q : Can the oven be used with the glass tray
or roller guide removed? A : No. Both the glass tray and roller guide must
always be used in the oven before cooking. Q : Can I open the door when the
oven is operating? A : The door can be opened anytime during the cooking
operation. Then microwave energy will be instantly
switched off and the time setting will maintain until the door is closed and
START is touched. Q : Why do I have moisture in my microwave oven after
cooking? A : The moisture on the side of your microwave oven is normal. It is
caused by steam form cooking
food heating the cool oven surface. Q : Dose microwave energy pass through the
viewing screen in the door? A : No. The metal screen bounces back the energy
to the oven cavity. The holes are made to
allow light to pass through. They do not let microwave energy pass through. Q
: Why do eggs sometimes pop? A : When baking or poaching eggs, the yolk may
pop due to steam build-up inside the yolk membrane.
To prevent this, simply pierce the yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never
cook eggs without piercing their shells. Q : Why is standing time recommended
after the cooking operation has been completed? A : Standing time is very
important. With microwave cooking, the heat is in the food, not in the oven.
Many foods build up enough internal heat to allow the cooking process to
continue, even after the food is removed from the oven. Standing time for
joints of meat, large vegetables and cakes allows the inside to cook
completely, without overcooking the outside. Q : What does “standing time”
mean? A : “Standing time” means that food should be removed from the oven and
covered for additional time to allow it to finish cooking. This frees the oven
for other cooking. Q : Why does my oven not always cook as fast as the
microwave cooking guide says? A : Check your cooking guide again, to make sure
you’ve followed directions exactly ; and to see what might cause variations in
cooking time. Cooking guide times and heat settings are suggestions, to help
prevent over-cooking… the most common problem in getting used to a microwave
oven. Variations in the size, shape and weights and dimensions could require
longer cooking time. Use your own judgement along with the cooking guide
suggestions to check whether the food has been properly cooked just as you
would do with a conventional cooker. Q : Will the microwave oven be damaged if
it operates while empty? A : Yes. Never run it empty. Q : Can I operate my
microwave oven without the turntable or turn the turntable over to hold a
large dish? A : No. If you remove or turn over the turntable, you will get
poor cooking results. Dishes used in your oven must fit on the turntable. Q :
Is it normal for the turntable to turn in either direction? A : Yes. The
turntable rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, depending on the rotation of
the motor when the cooking cycle begins. Q : Can I pop popcorn in my microwave
oven? How do I get the best results? A : Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn
following manufactures guidelines or use the preset POPCORN pad. Do not use
regular paper bags. Use the “listening test” by stopping the oven as soon as
the popping slows to a “pop” every 1 or 2 seconds. Do not repop unpopped
kernels. Do not pop popcorn in glass cookware.
