your favorite foods without selecting cooking times and power levels. The microwave
oven automatically determines the required cooking time for each food item. For best
results for cooking by sensor, follow these recommendations:
• Food cooked with the sensor system should start from normal storage temperature.
• Turntable tray, ceramic tray and outside of container should be dry.
• Foods should always be covered loosely with microwavable plastic wrap, wax
paper or lid.
• Do not open the door or touch Clear/Off key during sensing time. When sensing
time is over, the oven beeps once and the remaining cooking time will appear in the
display. At this time you can open the door to stir, turn or rearrange the food.
SENSOR REHEAT
The Sensor Reheat feature lets you reheat dinner plates or casseroles (8-16 oz.) for your
cooking convenience.
SETTING SENSOR REHEAT
1. Touch Sensor Reheat.
2. Touch Start/Enter. Sensing is displayed. The microwave operates during sensing.
3. When sensing is complete, a beep will sound and the calculated cook time will start
to count down.
• Do not open the door during the sensing process, or the program will be canceled.
4. Once the calculated cook time is displayed, you can open the door to stir, turn or
rearrange the food. Touch Start/Enter to resume operation.
5. When sensor reheat is finished, a beep will sound and the appliance turns off.
• Cover with vented plastic wrap or wax paper.
• Reheat food on a microwaveable dinner plate.

COOKING SEAFOOD IN YOUR MICROWAVE
Be sure to place fish on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish. Be
sure to always cook fish until it flakes easily with a fork. Use a tight cover to steam
fish; a lighter cover of wax paper or paper towel provides less steaming. And be sure
not to overcook fish; check it at a minimum cooking time before cooking longer.

Cooking Guide
OPERATION
COOKING EGGS AND VEGETABLES IN YOUR MICROWAVE
• Never cook eggs in the shell and never warm hard- cooked eggs in the shell;
they can explode.
• Always pierce yolk on whole eggs to keep them from bursting.
• Cook eggs just until set; they will become tough if overcooked.
• Cooking scrambled eggs is safe.
• Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem ends
pointing towards the edge of the dish and the tips toward the center.
• When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or vented
microwavable plastic wrap.
• Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, squash,
eggplant, etc., should have their skin pricked in several locations before cooking
to prevent them from bursting.
• For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway through the
cook time.
• Most of the time, the denser the food, the longer the required standing time. For
example, a baked potato should stand for 5 minutes before serving, while a dish
of peas may be served immediately.
HEATING FOOD
WARNING
WARNING: Risk of scalding
There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is heated. This means that
the liquid reaches boiling temperature without the usual steam bubbles rising to the
surface. Even if the container only moves a little, the hot liquid can suddenly boil over
and spatter. When heating liquids, always place a wooden spoon or chopstick in the
container. This will prevent delayed boiling.

Acrylamide in Food
OPERATION
ACRYLAMIDE IN FOOD
Which foods are affected? Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato
products that are heated to high temperatures, such as potato crisps, chips, toast,
bread rolls, bread, fine baked goods (biscuits, gingerbread, cookies).
Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum when preparing food:
• Keep cooking times to a minimum.
• Cook meals until they are golden brown, but not too dark. Large, thick pieces of
food contain less acrylamide.
• Max. 392°F in Top/bottom heating or max 356°F in 3D hot air or hot air mode.
• Max. 374°F in Top/bottom heating or max 338°F in 3D hot air or hot air mode.
• Egg white and egg yolk reduce the formation of acrylamide. Distribute thinly and
evenly over the baking tray. Cook at least 400 g at once on a baking tray so
that the chips do not dry out.
ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENT TIPS
Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and roasting and how to
dispose of your appliance properly.
SAVING ENERGY
• Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe or in the operating
instruction tables.
• Use dark, black lacquered or enameled baking tins. They absorb the heat
particularly well.
• Open the oven door as infrequently as possible while you are cooking, baking
or roasting.
• It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The oven is still warm. This
reduces the baking time for the second cake. You can also place two loaf tins
next to each other.
• For longer cooking times, you can switch the oven off 10 minutes before the end
of the cooking time and use the residual heat to finish cooking.

Maintenance and Cleaning
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
CARE AND CLEANING
• Risk of electric shock! Penetrating moisture may cause an electric shock. Do not
use any high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners.
• Risk of burns! Never clean the appliance immediately after switching off. Let the
appliance cool down.
• Risk of serious damage to health! Microwave energy may escape if the cooking
compartment door or the door seal is damaged. Never use the appliance if the
cooking compartment door or the door seal is damaged.
Contact us at 1-614-777-5004.
• Slight differences in color on the front of the appliance are caused by the use of
different materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
• Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are caused by reflections
made by the oven light.
• Unpleasant odors, e.g. after fish has been prepared, can be removed very
easily. Add a few drops of lemon juice to a cup of water. Place a spoon into the
container as well, to prevent delayed boiling. Heat the water for 1 to 2 minutes
at maximum microwave power.
• When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that comes together on closing the
door, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps, or detergent applied with a sponge or
soft cloth.
CLEANING AGENTS
• To ensure that the different surfaces are not damaged by using the wrong
cleaning agent, observe the information in the table. Do not use:
• Sharp or abrasive cleaning agents
• Metal or glass scrapers to clean the glass in the appliance door
• Metal or glass scrapers to clean the door seal
• Hard scouring pads and sponges
• Cleaning agents with high concentrations of alcohol.
• Wash new sponge cloths thoroughly before use.
• Allow all surfaces to dry thoroughly before using the appliance again.

Acrylamide in foodstuffs
Which foods are affected?
Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato products that
are heated to high temperatures, such as potato crisps, chips,
toast, bread rolls, bread, fine baked goods (biscuits, gingerbread,
cookies).
Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum when preparing food
General Keep cooking times to a minimum. Cook meals until they are golden brown, but not too
