Consulta qualified electricianor service person if the grounding instructionsare not com-
pletely understood,or if doubt exists as to whetherthe appliance is properlygrounded. Ifit
is necessary to use an extensioncord, use only a threewire extension cord that has a
three prong polarizedgrounding plug, and a three slot receptaclethat will accept the plug
on the appliance.The marked rating of the extensioncord should be equal toor greater
thanthe electrical ratingof the appliance.
Grounding Instructions
THiS APPLIANCE MUST BE GROUNDED. In the event of an electricalshort circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electricshock by providing anescape wire for the electric
current.Thisappliance isequipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding
plug.The plug must be plugged into an outlet thatis properly installedand grounded.
• Plug into properly installed and grounded 3 prong outlet.
• DO NOT remove ground prong.
• DO NOT use an adapter.
Power Supply
1.Ashort power-supplycord is providedto reduce the risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or trippingover a longer cord.
2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and maybe used if care is exercised
in their use. Do not let cord hang over edge of atable or counter.
3. If a longcord or extension cord is used, (1)the marked electricalrating of the cordset
or extension cord should be at leastas great as the electrical ratingof the appliance, (2)
the extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and (3)the longer cord
should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top ortable-
C_q
topwhere it can be pulled on by childrenor trippedover accidentally. _ r_)lI
Wiring Requirements
The oven must be operated on a SEPARATE CIRCUIT Noother appliance should share
the circuitwith the microwave oven. Ifitdoes, the branch circuitfuse may blow or the cir-
cuit breaker maytrip. The oven must be plugged into at leasta 20 AMP,120 VOLT,60 Hz
GROUNDED OUTLET Where a standard two-prongoutlet isencountered, it isthe
personal responsibilityand obligationof the consumer to have it replaced with a properly
grounded three-prong outlet.The VOLTAGE used must be the same as specified on this
microwave oven (120 V,60 Hz). Using a higher voltage isdangerous and may result in a
fireor oven damage. Using a lowervoltage will cause slow cooking. Panasonic is NOT
responsible for any damages resultingfrom the use of the oven with anyvoltage other
thanspecified.

Follow These Safety Precautions When Cooking in Your Oven.
iMPORTANT
Proper cooking depends upon the power, the time setting and quantity of
food. if you use a smaller portion than recommended but cook at the time
for the recommended portion, fire could result.
1) HOME CANNING / STERILIZING / DRYING FOODS /
SMALL QUANTITIES OF FOODS
• DO NOT use your oven for home canning. Your oven cannot maintain the food
at the proper canning temperature. The food may be contaminated and then
spoil.
• DO NOT use the microwave oven to sterilize objects (baby bottles, etc.). It is
difficult to keep the oven at the high temperature needed for sterilization.
• DO NOT dry meats, herbs, fruits or vegetables in your oven. Small quantities
of food or foods with low moisture content can dry out, scorch or catch on fire if
overheated.
2) POPCORN
Popcorn may be popped in a microwave oven corn popper. Microwave pop-
corn which pops in its own package is also available. Follow popcorn manu-
facturers' directions and use a brand suitable for the cooking power of your
microwave oven.
CAUTION: When using pre-packaged microwave popcorn, you can follow
recommended package instructions or use the popcorn pad (refer to page 13).
Otherwise, the popcorn may not pop adequately or may ignite and cause a
fire. Never leave oven unattended when popping popcorn. Allow the popcorn
bag to cool before opening, always open the bag facing away from your face
and body to prevent steam burns.
3) DEEP FAT FRYING
. DO NOT deep fat fry in your microwave oven. Cooking oils may burst into flames
and may cause damage to the oven and perhaps result in burns. Microwave utensils
may not withstand the temperature of the hot oil, and can shatter or melt.
4) FOODS WITH NONPOROUS SKINS
• DO NOT COOK/REHEAT WHOLE EGGS, WiTH OR WITHOUT THE SHELL.
Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to explode, and possibly damage the
oven or cause injury. Reheating SLICED hard-boiled eggs and cooking SCRAMBLED
eggs is safe.
. Potatoes, apples, whole squash and sausages are examples of foods with non-
porous skins. These types of foods must be pierced before microwave cooking to
prevent them from exploding.
CAUTION: Cooking dry or old potatoes can cause fire.
5) GLASS TRAY / COOKING CONTAINERS / FOIL
• Cooking containers get hot during microwavJng. Heat is transferred from the
HOT food to the container and the Glass Tray. Use pot holders when removing
containers from the oven or when removing lids or plastic wrap covers from
cooking containers, to avoid burns.
• The Glass Tray will get hot during cooking. It should be allowed to cool before
handling or before paper products, such as paper plates or microwave popcorn
bags, are placed in the oven for microwave cooking.
• When using foil in the oven, allow at least 1-inch (2.5 cm) of space between
foil and interior oven walls or door.
• Dishes with metallic trim should not be used, as arcing may occur.
6) PAPER TOWELS / CLOTHS
• DO NOT use paper towels or cloths which contain a synthetic fiber woven into
them. The synthetic fiber may cause the towel to ignite. Use paper toweling
under supervision.
7) BROWNING DISHES / OVEN COOKING BAGS
• Browning dishes or grills are designed for microwave cooking only. Always fol-
low instructions provided by the manufacturer. DO NOT preheat browning dish
more than 6 minutes.
• If an oven cooking bag is used for microwave cooking, prepare according to
package directions. DO NOT use a wire twist-tie to close bag, instead use
plastic ties, cotton string or a strip cut from the open end of the bag.
8) THERMOMETERS
• DO NOT use a conventional meat thermometer in your oven. Arcing may
occur. Microwave safe thermometers are available for both meat and candy.
9) BABY FORMULA/BABY FOOD
• DO NOT heat baby formula or baby food in the microwave oven. The glass jar
or surface of the food may appear warm while the interior can be so hot as to
burn the infant's mouth and esophagus.
10) REHEATING PASTRY PRODUCTS
• When reheating pastry products, check temperatures of any fillings before eat-
ing. Some foods have fillings which heat faster and can be extremely hot, while
the surface remains warm to the touch (ex. Jelly Donuts).
11) GENERAL OVEN USAGE GUIDEUNES
• DO NOT use the oven for any purpose other than the preparation of food.

Defrosting Tips & Techniques
Preparation For Freezing:
1. Freeze meats, poultry, and fish in packages with only 1 or 2 layers of food. Place
wax paper between layers.
2. Package in heavy-duty plastic wraps, bags (labeled "For Freezer"), or freezer paper.
3. Remove as much air as possible.
4. Seal securely, date, and label.
To Defrost:
1. Remove wrapper. This helps moisture to evaporate. Juices from food can get hot and
cook the food.
2. Set food in microwave safe dish.
3. Place roasts fat-side down. Place whole poultry breast-side down.
4. Select power and minimum time so that items will be under-defrosted.
5. Drain liquids during defrosting.
6. Turn over (invert) items during defrosting.
7. Shield edges and ends if needed. (See Cooking Techniques).
After Defrosting:
1. Large items may be icy in the center. Defrosting will complete during STANDING TIME.
2. Let stand, covered, following stand time directions on page 15.
3. Rinse foods indicated in the chart.
4. Items which have been layered should be rinsed separately or have a longer stand time.

_. Cooking starts.
Cooking is complete when 5 beeps
sound. (When steam is detected by the
Genius Sensor and 2 beeps sound, the
remaining cooking time will appear in the
display window.)
NOTE:
Casseroles - Add 3 to 4 tablespoons of liquid,
cover with lid or vented plastic wrap. Stir when
time appears in the display window.
Canned foods - Empty contents into casse-
roledish or serving bowl, cover dish with lid or
vented plastic wrap. After reheating, letstand
for a few minutes.
Plate of food - Arrange food on plate;top with
butter,gravy, etc. Cover with lid or vented
plastic wrap.After reheating, let stand for a

> Cooking starts.
Cooking is complete when 5 beeps
sound. (When steam is detected by the
Genius Sensor and 2 beeps sound, the
remaining cooking time will appear in the
display window.)
For the best results with the
GENIUS SENSOR, follow these rec-
ommendations,
BEFORE Reheating/Cooking:
1. The room temperature surrounding the
oven should be below 95° F (35° C).
2. Food weight should exceed 4 oz. (110 g).
3. Be sure the glass tray, the outside of the
cooking containers and the inside of the
microwave oven are dry before placing
food in the oven. Residual beads of mois-
ture turning into steam can mislead the
sensor.
4. Cover food with lid, or with vented plastic
wrap. Never use tightly sealed plastic
containers--they can prevent steam from
escaping and cause food to overcook.
DURING Reheating/Cooking:
DO NOT open the oven door until 2 beeps
sound and cooking time appears on the
Display Window. Doing so will cause inac-
curate cooking since the steam from food is
no longer contained within the oven cavity.
Once the cooking time begins to count
down, the oven door may be opened to stir,
turn, or rearrange foods.
AFTER Reheating/Cooking:
All foods should have a stand time.

[Food Characteristics]
Bone and Fat
Both bone and fat affect cook-
ing. Bones may cause irregu-
lar cooking. Meat next to the
tips of bones may overcook
while meat positioned under a large bone,
such as a ham bone, may be under-
cooked. Large amounts of fat absorb
microwave energy and the meat next to
these areas may overcook.
Density
Porous, atry foods such as
breads, cakes or rolls take
less time to cook than
heavy, dense foods such as
potatoes and roasts. When _i_ , '_ ;"
reheating donuts or other
foods with different centers be very care-
ful. Certain foods have centers made with
sugar, water, or fat and these centers
attract microwaves (For example, jelly
donuts). When a jelly donut is heated, the
jelly can become extremely hot while the
exterior remains warm to the touch. This
could result in a burn if the food is not
allowed to cool properly in the center.
Quantity
Two potatoes take longer to cook --_
than one potato. As the quantity of
the food decreases so does the
cooking time. Overcooking will ........
cause the moisture content in the .....
food to decrease and a fire could result.
Never leave microwave unattended while
in use.
Shape
Uniform sizes heat more
evenly. The thin end of a
drumstick will cook more
quickly than the meaty
end. To compensate for irregular shapes,
place thin parts toward the center of the
dish and thick pieces toward the edge.
Size
Thin pieces cook more
quickly than thick pieces.
Starting Temperature
Foods that are at room temperature
take less time to cook than if they
are chilled, refrigerated, or frozen.
[Cooking Techniques]
Piercing
Foods with skins or mem-
branes must be pierced
scored or have a strip of
skin peeled before cook-
ing to allow steam to
escape. Pierce clams,
oysters, chicken livers, whole potatoes
and whole vegetables. Whole apples or
new potatoes should have a 1-inch strip
of skin peeled before cooking. Score
sausages and frankfurters. Do not
Cook/Reheat whole eggs with or without
the shell. Steam build up in whole eggs
may cause them to explode, and possibly
damage the oven or cause injury.
Reheating SLICED hard-boiled eggs and
cooking SCRAMBLED eggs is safe.
Browning
Foods will not have the
same brown appearance as
conventionally cooked foods
or those foods which are
cooked utilizing a browning
feature. Meats and poultry
may be coated with browning sauce,
Worcestershire sauce, barbecue sauce or
shake-on browning sauce. To use, com-
bine browning sauce with melted butter or
margarine and brush on before cooking.
For quick breads or muffins, brown sugar
can be used in the recipe in place of
granulated sugar, or the surface can be
sprinkled with dark spices before baking.
Spacing
Individual foods, such as
baked potatoes, cupcakes
and appetizers, will cook more
evenly if placed in the oven
equal distances apart. When
possible, arrange foods in a circular pattern.
23
[ Cooking Techniques (continued)
Covering
As with conventional cooking, moisture
evaporates during microwave cooking.
Casserole lids or plastic wrap are used for a
tighter seal. When using plastic wrap, vent
the plastic wrap by folding back part of the
plastic wrap from the edge of the dish to
allow steam to escape. Loosen or remove
plastic wrap as recipe directs for stand time.
When removing plastic wrap covers, as well
as any glass lids, be careful to remove them
away from you to avoid steam burns.
Various degrees of moisture retention are
also obtained by using wax paper or paper
towels.
Shielding
Thin areas of meat and poultry cook more
quickly than meaty portions. To prevent
overcooking, these thin areas can be shield-
ed with strips of aluminum foil. Wooden
toothpicks may be used to hold the foil in
place.
,_,CAUTION is to be exercised when
using foil. Arcing can occur if foil is too close
to oven wall or door and damage to your
oven will result.
Cooking time
A range of cooking time is given in each
recipe. The time range compensates for the
uncontrollable differences in food shapes,
starting temperature, and regional prefer-
ences. Always cook food for the minimum
cooking time given in a recipe and check for
doneness. If the food is undercooked, con-
tinue cooking. It is easier to add time to an
undercooked product. Once the food is
overcooked, nothing can be done.
Stirring
Stirring is usually necessary during
microwave cooking. Always bring the
cooked outside edges toward the center
and the less cooked center portions toward
the outside of the dish.
Rearranging
Rearrange small items such as chicken
pieces, shrimp, hamburger patties, or pork
chops. Rearrange pieces from the edge to
the center and pieces from the center to the
edge of the dish.
24
Turning
It is not possible to stir some foods to dis-
tribute the heat evenly. At times, microwave
energy will concentrate in one area of the
food. To help insure even cooking, these
food need to be turned. Turn over large
foods, such as roasts or turkeys, halfway
through cooking.
Stand Time
Most foods will continue to cook by conduc-
tion after the microwave oven is turned off.
In meat cookery, the internal temperature
will rise 5°F to 15°F (3°C to 8°C), if allowed
to stand, tented with foil, for 10 to 15 min-
utes. Casseroles and vegetables need a
shorter amount of standing time, but this
standing time is necessary to allow foods to
complete cooking to the center without over-
cooking on the edges.
Test for Doneness
The same tests for doneness used in con-
ventional cooking may be used for
microwave cooking. Meat is done when
fork-tender or splits at fibers. Chicken is
done when juices are clear yellow and
drumstick moves freely. Fish is done when it
flakes and is opaque. Cake is done when a
toothpick or cake tester is inserted and
comes out clean.
ABOUT FOOD SAFETY AND
COOKING TEMPERATURE
Check foods to see that they are cooked to
the United States Department of
Agriculture's recommended temperatures.
160°F ...for fresh pork, ground meat,
boneless white poultry, fish,
seafood, egg dishes and
frozen prepared food.
165°F ...for leftover, ready-to-reheat
refrigerated, and dell and
carryout "fresh" food.
170°F ...white meat of poultry.
180°F ...dark meat of poultry.
Totest for doneness, insert a meat ther-
mometer in a thick or dense area away from
fat or bone. NEVER leave the thermometer
in the food during cooking, unless it is
approved for microwave oven use.
