When using the defrost weight feature, the
weight entered should always be pounds (valid
entries are from 0.1 to 6.0 pounds).
Use both defrost weight and defrost time
features for raw food items only. Defrosting
gives best results when food to be thawed is a
minimum of 0°F (taken directly from a true
freezer). If the food has been stored in a
refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a
temperature of 5° F or below, always program a
lower food weight or lower cook time to prevent
cooking the food.
If the frozen food is stored outside the freezer
for up to 20 minutes, enter a reduced cook time
or weight.
The shape of the package will alter the
defrosting time. Shallow rectangular food
packets defrost more quickly than a deep frozen
block of food.
Separate pieces as they begin to defrost.
Separated frozen pieces of food defrost better.
Shield warm areas of food with small pieces of
foil if they start to become warm.
You may use small pieces of aluminum foil to
shield food items like chicken wings, leg tips and
fish tails, but do not allow the foil to touch the
oven cavity walls when defrosting.
After each stage,
rearrange the food. If
there are any warm or
thawed portions of food,
shield them with narrow
flat pieces of aluminum
foil. Remove any pieces
of food that are nearly
defrosted. Let stand,
covered for about 5 to 10
minutes.
Steaks,

or fish
After each stage, remove
any pieces of food that
are nearly defrosted. Let

NOTES FOR SENSOR COOKING
1. The final cooking result will vary according to
the food condition (e.g. initial temperature,
shape, quality). Check food for temperature
after cooking. If additional time is needed,
continue to cook manually.
2. Stay near the oven while it’s in use and check
cooking progress frequently so that there is no
chance of overcooking food.
3. When SENSOR COOKING is selected Turntable
On is automatically set for optimum cooking.
Be careful when removing any covering to allow
steam to escape away from you.
Using Sensor Settings:
1. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and
the interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any
moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel.
2. The oven works with foods at normal storage
tem-perature. For example, popcorn would be at
room temperature.
3. More or less food than the quantity listed in the
chart should be cooked following the guidelines
in any micro-wave cookbook.
4. During the first part of SENSOR COOKING, food
name will appear in the display. Do not open the
oven door or press the pad during this part
of the cycle. The measurement of vapor will be
interrupt ed. When the sensor detects the vapor
emitted from the food, remainder of cooking time
will appear. Door may the opened when remain
-
ing cooking time appears in the display. At this
time, you may stir or season food, as desired.
5. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when
pop-ping popcorn, the oven will turn off, and the
correct time of day will be displayed. If the sensor
does not detect vapor properly when cooking
other foods, AN ERROR CODE E-04 will be
displayed, and the oven will turn off.
6. Check food for temperature after cooking. If
additional time is needed, continue to cook
manually.
COVERING FOODS:
Some foods cook better when covered.
1. Casserole lid.
2. Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for
microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow
approximately 1/2 inch to remain uncovered to
allow steam to escape. Plastic wrap should not
touch food.
3. Wax paper: Cover dish completely; fold excess
wrap under dish to secure. If dish is wider than
paper, overlap two pieces at least one inch to
cover.
1. Touch Sensor Cook pad 4 times to
choose the frozen breakfast.
2. Touch START pad.

SUGGESTIONS FOR GETTING THE BEST
RESULTS
To help you achieve the best possible results from
your microwave oven, read the following sugges-
tions below;
Storage temperature
Foods taken from the freezer or refrigerator take
longer to cook than the same foods would at
room temperature.
Size
Small pieces of food cook faster than large ones.
Pieces similar in size and shape will cook more
evenly when cooked together. For more even
results, reduce the power levels when cooking
large pieces of food.
Natural moisture
Very moist foods cook more evenly because
microwave energy heats water molecules very
efficiently.
Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetable from
the outside to the center to distribute the heat
more evenly. This will allow the food to cook
faster. Constant stirring is not necessary.
Turn over items
Turn over foods such as pork chops, roasts or
whole cauliflower halfway through the cook time.
This will help to expose all sides equally to
microwave energy.
Food placement
Place delicate areas of food items, such as
asparagus tips, toward the center of the turntable
tray.
Food arrangement
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken
pieces or salmon, with the thicker or meatier parts
toward the outside of the turntable tray.
Let the food stand
After removing the food from the microwave,
cover the food with foil or a casserole lid and let it
stand to finish cooking. This will help the food
finish in the center and avoids overcooking the
out edges. The length of stand time depends on
the density and surface area of the food items.
Wrapping in paper towels or waxed paper
Sandwiches and many other food types
containing pre-baked bread should be wrapped
prior to placing in the microwave to help prevent
the food items from drying out while heating.

Reheating meat slices
quickly.
Saute onions, celery &
green peppers.

MAINTENANCE
background
CLEANING AND CARE 19
Disconnect the power cord or leave the door open to deactivate the oven during
cleaning. Disconnect the power cord before replacing filters and lights.
WAVEGUIDE COVER
The waveguide cover is located on the right side
in the microwave oven cavity. It is made from
mica so requires special care. Keep the wave-
guide cover clean to assure good microwave
oven performance. Carefully wipe with a damp
cloth any food spatters from the surface of the
cover immediately after they occur. Built-up
splashes may overheat and cause smoke or
possibly catch fire. DO NOT REMOVE THE
WAVEGUIDE COVER.
ODOR REMOVAL
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the
microwave oven. To remove, combine 1 cup
water, grated peel and juice of 1 lemon in a
2-cup glass measuring cup.
Boil for several minutes using 100% power.
Allow to set in microwave oven until cool. Wipe
interior with a soft cloth.
TURNTABLE/TURNTABLE SUPPORT
The turntable and turntable support can be
removed for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild,
sudsy water; for stubborn stains use a mild
cleanser and non-abrasive scouring sponge.
They are also dishwasher-proof. Use upper
wirerack of dishwasher. The turntable motor
shaft is not sealed, so excess water or spills
should be wiped up immediately.
EXTERIOR
The outside surface is precoated steel and
plastic. Clean the outside with mild soap and
water; rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use
any type of household or abrasive cleaner.
DOOR
Wipe the window on both sides with a soft cloth
to remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will
be easier to maintain if wiped frequently with a
soft cloth. Avoid the use of spray and other
harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull
the door surface.
EASY CARE™ STAINLESS STEEL /
SMUDGE _PRO OF™ STAINLESS STEEL /
BLACK STAINLESS STEEL(SOME MODELS)
Your microwave oven(some models) may have a
Stainless Steel finish or coating. Clean the
stainless with warm soapy water using a clean
sponge or cloth. Rinse with clean water and dry
with a soft clean cloth. DO NOT use ANY store
bought cleaners like Stainless Steel cleaners or
any other types of cleaners containing any
abrasive, chlorides, chlorines or ammonia. It is
recommended to use mild dish soap and water
or a 50/50 solution of water and vinegar.
TOUCH CONTROL PANEL
Care should be taken in cleaning the touch
control panel. If the control panel becomes
soiled, open the microwave oven door before
cleaning. Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened
slightly with water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do
not scrub or use any sort of chemical cleaners.
Close door and touch STOP/CLEAR
INTERIOR
Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated
to the interior surfaces . To clean the interior
surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth and warm water.
DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS
OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use
baking soda or a mild soap; rinse thoroughly
with hot water. The round wire rack and shelf
can be cleaned with hot soapy water, rinsed and
dried.
