USING YOUR MICROWAVE 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 inch 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.

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 IN OVEN 
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 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 inch from 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.

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 turntable and turntable support 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.

• The turntable may be cleaned at the sink. Be careful

not to chip or scratch the edges as this may cause
the turntable to break during use. Oven turntable may
also be cleaned in a dishwasher.

• The turntable support 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.
