HOW YOUR KENMORE MICROWAVE HOOD
COMBINATION WORKS
Microwave ener_ is not hot. It causes food to make
its own heat, and it's this heat that cooks the food.
Microwaves are like TV waves, radio waves, or
light waves. You cannot see them, but you can we
what they do.
A m_netron in the microwave oven produces
microwaves. Re microwaves move into the oven
where they contact food as it turns on the turntable.

Metal floor GA_s tray Guide, _ay
The glass turntable d your microwave oven lets
microwaves pass through. Then they bounce off a
metal floor, back through the glass turntable, and
are absorbed by the food.
Microwaves _ss through most glass, paper and
plasti_ without heating them so food absorbs the
energy. Microwaves bounce off metal containers so
food does not absorb the energy.
The Microwave System features Sensor C_king
functions. A humidly" sensor in the oven cavity detects
mo_ture and humidi_j emitted from food as it heats.
The sensor adjusts cooking times to various _pes and
amounts of food. Sensor cooking takes the guess work
out d microwave cooking.
For the best cooking results
e Ailways _k food for the shortest cooking time
recommended. Check to see how the food is
cooking
• Stir, turn over, or rearrange the food being
cooked about hal_ay through the cooking time
for all recipes. This will help make sure the food is
evenly cooked.
• ff you do, not have a _ver for a dish, use wax
paper, or microwave-approved paper towels or
plastic wrap Remember to turn back a corner of
the plastic wrap to vent steam during cooking.
• Always remove the cooking rack from the oven
when the rack is not in use.
Radio interference
Using your microwave oven may cause interferen_
to your radio, TV, or similar equipment. When there
is interference, you can reduce it or remove it by:
• Cleaning the door and sealing surfaces of the
oven.
• Adjuring the receMng antenna of the radio or
television.
• _vmg the reviver away from the microwave
oven.
• P'l_ging the microwave oven into a different
outlet so that the microwave oven and rece_er are
on different branch circuits.
Testing your microwave oven
To test the oven put approximately 1 cup of cold
water in a glass container in the oven. Close the
door.
C_k at 100% _wer for 1 minute. When the time is
up, the water should be heated.
