Getting Started
ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
This Installation/Use and Care Manual is valuable: read it
carefully and always save it for reference.
A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check
it for microwave cooking principles, techniques, hints
and recipes.
NEVER use the microwave oven without the turntable and
support nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish
could be placed in the microwave oven. The turntable will
turn both clockwise and counterclockwise.
ALWAYS have food in the microwave oven when it is on
to absorb the microwave energy.
When using the microwave oven at power levels below
100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off.
It is normal for the exterior of the microwave oven to be
warm to the touch when cooking or reheating.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking.
Room humidity and the moisture in food will influence
the amount of moisture that condenses in the microwave
oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as much
condensation as uncovered ones. Vents on the microwave
oven back must not be blocked.
The microwave oven is for food preparation only. It should
not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.
Your microwave oven is rated 1100 watts by using the IEC
Test Procedure. In using recipes or package directions,
check food a minute or two before the minimum time and
add time accordingly.
ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE
MICROWAVE
Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave
oven with a supervising person very near to them. Between
the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person should be
in the same room.
The child must be able to reach the microwave oven
comfortably; if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.
At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on
the microwave oven door.
Children should be taught all safety precautions: use
potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special
attention to packages that crisp food because they may
be extra hot.
Don’t assume that because a child has mastered one
cooking skill he/she can cook everything.
Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not a
toy. See page 27 for Child Lock feature.
Information You Need To Know
ABOUT UTENSILS AND
COVERINGS
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces
already in your kitchen can be used successfully in your
new microwave oven. Make sure the utensil does not touch
the interior walls during cooking.
USE THESE UTENSILS FOR SAFE MICROWAVE
COOKING AND REHEATING:
• glass ceramic (Pyroceram ® ), such as Corningware ® .
• heat-resistant glass (Pyrex
®
)
• microwave-safe plastics
• paper plates
• microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain
• browning dish (Do not exceed recommended
preheating time. Follow manufacturer's directions.)
THESE ITEMS CAN BE USED FOR SHORT TIME
REHEATING OF FOODS THAT HAVE LITTLE FAT OR
SUGAR IN THEM:
• wood, straw, wicker
DO NOT USE
• metal pans and bakeware
• dishes with metallic trim
• non-heat-resistant glass
• non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)
• recycled paper products
• brown paper bags
• food storage bags
• metal twist-ties
Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving,
place the empty dish in the microwave oven and
microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes
very hot should not be used.
THE FOLLOWING COVERINGS ARE IDEAL:
• Paper towels are good for covering foods for
reheating and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.
• Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.
• Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave
use can be used for cooking and reheating. DO
NOT allow plastic wrap to touch food. Vent so
steam can escape.
• Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice
because heat is kept near the food to hasten
cooking.
• Microwave oven cooking bags are good for large
meats or foods that need tenderizing. DO NOT use
metal twist ties. Remember to slit bag so steam can
escape.
