Features
CLEANRELEASE ® Cavity Coating (on some models)
The durable, nonstick coating resists soil buildup by making cleaning easier. See the “Microwave Oven Care” section.
6th SENSE™ System
A sensor in the microwave oven detects moisture released from food as it heats, and adjusts the cooking time accordingly.
Convection Element and Fan
The convection element and fan are embedded in the wall of the microwave oven cavity, behind the metal screen.
Cooking Rack
Use the rectangular cooking rack only for 2-level cooking. To avoid damage to the microwave oven, always remove rack after 2-level cooking. To avoid damage to the microwave oven due to soil buildup, clean rack supports often.
Turntable
Turntable may be turned off for manual cooking only. This is helpful when cooking with plates that are bigger than the turntable, or when cooking with plates that are side by side. Turntable cannot be turned off during preset or sensor (on some models) functions.
Accessories
Convection Rack
Use the short convection rack for convection cycles (baking or roasting). Place cookware directly on rack for bake and for some roast functions. Some roast functions require that the food be placed directly on the rack. Use a microwave-safe, ovenproof dish or pan under the rack to catch the drippings.
Steamer Vessel
Use the steamer vessel base, insert, and lid for steaming, or use just the base and lid for simmering.

Touch START to begin preheat. Preheat may be skipped by touching START again. After preheat, place baking dish with food on the convection rack, then touch START to begin cooking.
Sensor Cooking
A sensor in the microwave oven detects moisture released from food as it heats and adjusts the cooking time accordingly.
Make sure microwave oven has been plugged in for at least 1 minute. Use microwave-safe dish with loose-fitting lid, or cover microwave-safe dish with plastic wrap and vent. For optimal performance, wait at least 30 minutes after convection cooking or grilling (on some models) before sensor cooking.
Add More Time
At the end of any cycle, “PRESS 0 TO ADD MORE TIME” scrolls in the display. Enter the additional time, if desired, and start the microwave oven. The cook power for all non-sensor cycles will be the same as in the finished cycle, but may be changed. If Add More Time is used after a sensor cycle, the cook power will be 100% but may be changed.
Doneness
Adjust doneness for automatic cooking functions by touching COOK TIME repeatedly to scroll through “NORMAL,” “MORE DONE”, or “LESS DONE” within the first 20 seconds of starting the cook cycle. Doneness cannot be adjusted for Defrost functions.
Warm Hold
WARNING - Food Poisoning Hazard
- Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour before or after cooking.
- Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
Hot cooked food can be kept warm in the microwave oven. The Warm Hold function uses 10% cook power. Warm Hold can be used by itself or can be programmed to follow a cooking cycle. Opening the door during Warm Hold will cancel the function.
