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).
• The metal shelf not installed correctly so
it touches the microwave wall.
• 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.
Arcing
• Do not pop popcorn in your microwave
oven unless in a special microwave
popcorn accessory or unless you use
popcorn labeled for use in microwave
ovens.
• Some products such as whole eggs and
sealed containers—for example, closed
jars—will explode and should not be
heated in this microwave oven. Such
use of the microwave oven could result
in injury.
• Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven.
Pressure will build up inside egg yolk
and will cause it to burst, possibly
resulting in injury.
• Operating the microwave with no food
inside for more than a minute or two
may cause damage to the oven and
could start a fire. 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.

• 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 or breast milk. The
container may feel cooler than the milk
really is. Always test the milk before
feeding the baby.
• Spontaneous boiling – Under certain
special circumstances, liquids may start to
boil during or shortly after removal from
the microwave oven. To prevent burns
from splashing liquid, we recommend
the following: before removing the
container from the oven, allow the
container to stand in the oven for 30 to
40 seconds after the oven has shut off.
Do not boil liquids in narrow-necked
containers such as soft drink bottles,
wine flasks and especially narrow-necked
coffee cups. Even if the container is
opened, excessive steam can build up
and cause it to burst or overflow.
• Do not defrost frozen beverages in
narrow-necked bottles (especially
carbonated beverages). Even if the
container is opened, pressure can build
up. This can cause the container to
burst, possibly resulting in injury.
• 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.
• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—
meat to at least an INTERNAL
temperature of 160°F (71°C). and
poultry to at least an INTERNAL
temperature of 180°F (82°C). Cooking to
these temperatures usually protects
against food-borne illness.
Safety Fact– SUPERHEATED WATER
Microwaved water and other liquids do not always bubble when they reach
the boiling point. They can actually get superheated and not bubble at all.
Superheated liquid will bubble up out of the cup when it is moved or when
something like a spoon or tea bag is put into it.
To prevent this from happening and causing injury, do not heat any liquid for
more than 2 minutes per cup. After heating, let the cup stand in the
microwave for 30 seconds before moving it or putting anything into it.

Make sure all cookware used in
your microwave oven is suitable for
microwaving. 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.”
• 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 to 45
seconds at high. If the dish heats, it
should not be used for microwaving.
If the dish remains cool and only the
water in the cup heats, then the dish is
microwave-safe.
• If you use a meat thermometer while
cooking, make sure it is safe for use in
microwave ovens.
• Some styrofoam 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.
• 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, since they
may also ignite.
• Do not use the microwave to dry
newspapers.
• Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use in
microwave ovens. Check the package for
proper use.
• 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.
• Cookware may become hot because of
heat transferred from the heated food.
Pot holders may be needed to handle
the cookware.
• “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.

• Use foil only as directed in this manual.
TV dinners may be microwaved in foil
trays less than 3/4″ (2 cm) high; remove
the top foil cover and return the tray to
the box. When using foil in the
microwave oven, keep the foil at least
1 inch (2.5 cm) away from the sides of
the oven.
• 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:
1. Use microwave-safe plastics only and
use them in strict compliance with
the cookware manufacturer’s
recommendations.
2. Do not microwave empty containers.
3. Do not permit children to use plastic
cookware without complete supervision.
The Exhaust Fan
The fan will operate automatically under
certain conditions (see Automatic Fan
feature). Take care to prevent the starting
and spreading of accidental cooking fires
while the exhaust fan is in use.
• Clean the underside of the microwave
often. Do not allow grease to build up
on the microwave or the fan filters.
• In the event of a grease fire on the
surface units below the microwave oven,
smother a flaming pan on the surface
unit by covering the pan completely
with a lid, a cookie sheet or a flat tray.
• Use care when cleaning the exhaust fan
filters. Corrosive cleaning agents, such
as lye-based oven cleaners, may damage
the filters.
• When preparing flaming foods under
the microwave, turn the exhaust fan on.
• Never leave surface units beneath your
microwave oven unattended at high heat
settings. Boilovers cause smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite and
spread if the microwave exhaust fan is
operating. To minimize automatic fan
operation, use adequate-sized cookware
and use high heat on surface units only
when necessary.

Improper use of the grounding plug
can result in a risk of electric shock.
This appliance must be grounded. In
the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for
the electric current.
This appliance is equipped with a power
cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or service
technician if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if
doubt exists as to whether the appliance
is properly grounded.
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall
outlet, it is your personal responsibility
and obligation to have it replaced with a
properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
Do not under any circumstances cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from
the power cord.
Do not use an adapter plug with this
appliance.
Do not use an extension cord with this
appliance. If the power cord is too short,

How to Change the Power Level
The power level may be entered or
changed immediately after entering the
feature time for COOK TIME, TIME
DEFROST or EXPRESS COOK. The
power level may also be changed during
time countdown.
1. Press COOK TIME or select
Time Defrost.
2. Enter cooking or defrosting time.
3. Press POWER LEVEL.
4. Select desired power level 1–10.
5. Press START.
Variable power levels add flexibility to
microwave cooking. The power levels on
the microwave oven can be compared to
the surface units on a range. High (power
level 10) or full power is the fastest way to
cook and gives you 100% power. Each
power level gives you microwave energy a
certain percent of the time. Power level 7
is microwave energy 70% of the time.
Power level 3 is energy 30% of the time.
A high setting (10) will cook faster but
food may need more frequent stirring,
rotating or turning over. Most cooking
will be done on High (power level 10).
A lower setting will cook more evenly and
need less stirring or rotating of the food.
Some foods may have better flavor, texture
or appearance if one of the lower settings
is used. Use a lower power level when
cooking foods that have a tendency to boil
over, such as scalloped potatoes.
Rest periods (when the microwave energy
cycles off) give time for the food to
“equalize” or transfer heat to the inside
of the food. An example of this is shown
with power level 3—the defrost cycle. If
microwave energy did not cycle off, the
outside of the food would cook before
the inside was defrosted.
Here are some examples of uses for
various power levels:
Power Level Best Uses
High 10 Fish, bacon, vegetables, boiling
liquids.
Med-High 7 Gentle cooking of meat and
poultry; baking casseroles
and reheating.
Medium 5 Slow cooking and tenderizing
such as stews and less tender
cuts of meat.
Low 2 or 3 Defrosting without cooking;
simmering; delicate sauces.
Warm 1 Keeping food warm without
overcooking; softening butter.

Time Defrost
Allows you to defrost for the length of
time you select. See the Defrosting Guide
for suggested times.
1. Press AUTO/TIME DEFROST twice.
2. Enter defrosting time.
3. Press START.
4. Turn food over when the oven signals.
5. Press START.
(Auto Defrost explained in the section on
Convenience Features.)
Power level 3 is automatically set, but you
may change this for more flexibility. You
may defrost small items more quickly by
raising the power level after entering the
time. However, they will need more
frequent attention than usual.
Power level 7 cuts the total defrosting
time in about half; power level 10 cuts the
total time to approximately 1/3. Rotate or
stir food frequently.
At one half of selected defrosting time,
the oven signals TURN. At this time, turn
food over and break apart or rearrange
pieces for more even defrosting. Shield
any warm areas with small pieces of foil.
A dull thumping noise may be heard
during defrosting. This sound is normal
when the oven is not operating at
High power.
Defrosting Tips
• Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be
defrosted in the package. Tightly closed
packages should be slit, pierced or
vented AFTER food has partially
defrosted. Plastic storage containers
should be at least partially uncovered.
• Family-size, prepackaged frozen dinners
can be defrosted and microwaved. If the
food is in a foil container, transfer it to
a microwave-safe dish.
• Foods that spoil easily, such as milk,
eggs, fish, stuffings, poultry and pork,
should not be allowed to sit out for
more than one hour after defrosting.
Room temperature promotes the growth
of harmful bacteria.
• For more even defrosting of larger
foods, such as beef, lamb and veal roasts,
use Auto Defrost.
• Be sure large meats are completely
defrosted before cooking.
• When defrosted, food should be cool but
softened in all areas. If still slightly icy,
return to the microwave very briefly, or
let it stand a few minutes.

Feature Information
Shelf
• Make sure the shelf is positioned properly inside the microwave to prevent damage
to the oven from arcing.
• Do not use a microwave browning dish on the shelf. The shelf could overheat.
• Do not use the oven with the shelf on the microwave floor. This could damage
the microwave.
• Use pot holders when handling the shelf—it may be hot.
• Do not use the shelf when cooking popcorn.

49-40142-3v02 6/17/02 4:29 PM Page 25
Arcing Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is
caused by:
• metal or foil touching the side of the oven.
• the metal shelf being installed incorrectly and touching the
microwave walls.
• foil that is not molded to food (upturned edges act like
antennas).
• metal such as twist-ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed dishes.
• recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces.
Covering Covers hold in moisture, allow for more even heating and reduce
cooking time. Venting plastic wrap or covering with wax paper
allows excess steam to escape.
Shielding In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked foods to
prevent over-browning. When microwaving, you use small strips of
foil to shield thin parts, such as the tips of wings and legs on
poultry, which would cook before larger parts.
Standing Time When you cook with regular ovens, foods such as roasts or cakes
are allowed to stand to finish cooking or to set. Standing time is
especially important in microwave cooking. Note that a microwaved
cake is not placed on a cooling rack.
Venting After covering a dish with plastic wrap, you vent the plastic wrap by
turning back one corner so excess steam can escape.

Case
Clean the outside of the microwave with a
sudsy cloth. Rinse and then dry. Wipe the
window clean with a damp cloth.
Control Panel and Door
Wipe with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
Do not use cleaning sprays, large amounts
of soap and water, abrasives or sharp
objects on the panel—they can damage it.
Some paper towels can also scratch the
control panel.
Door Seal
It’s important to keep the area clean
where the door seals against the
microwave. Use only mild, non-abrasive
detergents applied with a clean sponge or
soft cloth. Rinse well.
Bottom
Clean off the grease and dust on the
bottom often. Use a solution of warm
water and detergent.
Stainless Steel (on some models)
Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will scratch
the surface.
To clean stainless steel surfaces, use a hot,
damp cloth with a mild detergent suitable
for stainless steel surfaces. Use a clean,
hot, damp cloth to remove soap. Dry with
a dry, clean cloth.
If food soil remains, try a general kitchen
cleaner, such as Fantastik
®
, Simple Green
®
or Formula 409
®
.
For hard-to-clean soil, use a standard
stainless steel cleaner, such as Bon-Ami
®
or Cameo
®
.
Apply cleaner with a damp sponge. Use a
clean, hot, damp cloth to remove cleaner.
Dry with a dry, clean cloth. Always scrub
lightly in the direction of the grain.
After cleaning, use a stainless steel polish,
such as Stainless Steel Magic
®
, Revere
Copper and Stainless Steel Cleaner
®
or
Wenol All Purpose Metal Polish
®
. Follow
the product instructions for cleaning the
stainless steel surface.
We recommend against using
cleaners with ammonia or alcohol,
as they can damage the appearance
of the microwave oven. If you
choose to use a common household
cleaner, first apply the cleaner
directly to a clean cloth, then wipe
the soiled area.

The exhaust fan has 2 metal reusable
grease filters.
Models that recirculate air back into
the room also use a charcoal filter.
Reusable Grease Filters
The metal filters trap grease released by
foods on the cooktop. They also prevent
flames from foods on the cooktop from
damaging the inside of the microwave.
For this reason, the filters must ALWAYS
be in place when the hood is used. The
grease filters should be cleaned once a
month, or as needed.
To remove, slide it to the rear using
the tab. Pull it down and out.
To clean the grease filter, soak it and
then swish it around in hot water and
detergent. Don’t use ammonia or
ammonia products because they will
darken the metal.
Light brushing can be used to remove
embedded dirt.
Rinse, shake and let it dry before
replacing.
To replace, slide the filter in the frame
slot on the back of the opening. Pull up
and to the front to lock into place.

Troubleshooting Tips
Save time and money! Review this list first
and you may not need to call for service.
Floor of the oven is warm,
even when the oven has not
been used?
The cooktop light is located below the oven
floor. When the light is on, the heat it
produces may make the oven floor get warm.
This is normal.
“LOCKED” appears in the
display?
The control has been locked. Press and hold
CLEAR/OFF for about 3 seconds to unlock
the control.
Oven will not start?
A fuse in your home may be blown or the
circuit breaker tripped. Replace fuse or reset
circuit breaker.
Power surge. Unplug the microwave oven,
then plug it back in.
Plug not fully inserted into wall outlet. Make
sure the 3-prong plug on the oven is fully
inserted into wall outlet.

Troubleshooting
Before You Call For Service…
You hear an unusual,
low-tone beep?
You have tried to start the Reminder without
a valid time of day. Start over and enter a
valid time of day.
You have tried to change the power level
when it is not allowed. Many of the oven’s
features are preset and cannot be changed.
Things That Are Normal
• Steam or vapor escaping from around
the door.
• Light reflection around door or outer case.
• Dimming oven light and change in the
blower sound at power levels other
than high.
• Dull thumping sound while oven is
operating.
• TV-radio interference might be noticed
while using the microwave. Similar to
the interference caused by other small
appliances, it does not indicate a problem
with the microwave. Plug the microwave
into a different electrical circuit, move the
radio or TV as far away from the
microwave as possible or check the
position and signal of the TV/radio
antenna.
