IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
E 5
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped
with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.
It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In the
event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces
risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current.
WARNING – Improper use of the grounding plug can
result in a risk of electric shock.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Check Installation Instructions for proper location for the
power supply.
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC
only, 15 amp. or more protected electrical supply. It is
recommended that a separate circuit serving only the
oven be provided.
The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It
must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly
installed and grounded. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUM
-
STANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PIN
FROM THE PLUG.
Notes:
1. If you have any questions about the grounding or
electricalinstructions, consulta qualiedelectrician
or service person.
2. Neither SMEG nor the dealer can accept any liability
for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting
from failure to observe the correct electrical connection
procedures.
RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE
Should there be any interference caused by the micro-
wave oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave
oven is on a different electrical circuit, relocate the radio
or TV as far away from the oven as feasible or check
position and signal of receiving antenna.
Carefully remove oven from carton. SAVE THE CARTON
AS IT MAY MAKE INSTALLATION EASIER.

ABOUT YOUR OVEN
This Instruction Manual is valuable: read it carefully and
always save it for reference.
A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check
it for microwave cooking principles, techniques, hints
and recipes.
NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support
nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could be
placed in the oven. The turntable will turn both clock
-
wise and counterclockwise. See page 12 for complete
instructions.
ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb
the microwave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you
may hear the magnetron cycling on and off.
The fan will automatically start when heat rises from
range surface units or burners and when convection,
high mix, low mix or the broil settings are used.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking.
Roomhumidityandthemoistureinfoodwillinuence
the amount of moisture that condenses in the oven.
Generally, covered foods will not cause as much con
-
densation as uncovered ones. Ventilation openings must
not be blocked.
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be
used to dry clothes or newspapers.
Your oven is rated 850 watts by using the IEC Test Pro
-
cedure. In using recipes or package directions, check
food a minute or two before the minimum time and add
time accordingly.
ABOUT FOOD

“explosion”.
• Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, squash, hot
dogs and sausages so that steam escapes.
• Cook eggs in shells.
• Reheat whole eggs.
• Dry nuts or seeds in shells.
Popcorn • Use specially bagged popcorn for the micro
-
wave oven.
• Listen while popping corn for the popping to
slow to 1 or 2 seconds or use special Sensor
Popcorn pad.
• Pop popcorn in regular brown bags or
glass bowls.
• Exceed maximum time on popcorn

INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
E 7
INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT SAFETY
• Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United
States Department of Agriculture’s recommended
temperatures.
TEMP FOOD
160˚F For fresh pork, ground meat, boneless
whitepoultry,sh,seafood,eggdishesand
frozen prepared food.
165˚F For leftover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated,
and deli and carry-out “fresh” food.
170˚F White meat of poultry.
180˚F Dark meat of poultry.
To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer 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.
• ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when han
-
dling utensils that are in contact with hot food. Enough
heat from the food can transfer through utensils to
cause skin burns.
• Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the
face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge of a dish’s
covering and carefully open popcorn and oven cooking
bags away from the face.
• Stay near the oven while it’s in use and check cook
-
ing progress frequently so that there is no chance of
overcooking food.
• NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or other
items.
• Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve
its high quality and minimize the spread of foodborne
bacteria.
• Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can cause
arcingand/orres.
• Use care when removing items from the oven so that
the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not touch
the safety door latches.
ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING
• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards
outside of dish.
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of
time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely
overcooked can smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook
for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper, microwave
plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and
help foods to cook evenly.
• Shieldwithsmallatpiecesofaluminumfoilanythin
areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking before
dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.
• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice
during cooking, if possible.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed
cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers.
Large items like roasts must be turned over at least
once.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through
cooking both from top to bottom and from the center
of the dish to the outside.
• Add standing time. Remove food from oven and stir,
if possible. Cover for standing time which allows the
foodtonishcookingwithoutovercooking.
• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that
cooking temperatures have been reached.
Doneness signs include:
- Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
- Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.
- Poultry thigh joints move easily.
- Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
- Fishisopaqueandakeseasilywithafork.
ABOUT CHILDREN AND
THE MICROWAVE
Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave
oven with a supervising person very near to them.
Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person
should be in the same room.
The child must be able to reach the oven comfortably; if
not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.
At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing
on the oven door.
Children should be taught all safety precautions: use
potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special
attention to packages that crisp food because they may
be extra hot.
Don’t assume that because a child has mastered one
cooking skill he/she can cook everything.
Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not a
toy. See pages 25 for Child Lock feature.

MICROWAVE FEATURES
MANUAL DEFROST
If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the
COMPU DEFROST CHART or is above or below the
limits in the “Amount” column on the chart, you need to
defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously
cooked, by using power level 3. Follow the exact 3-step
procedure found under To Set Power Level on page 13.
Estimate defrosting time and press
3 for 30% when you
select the power level.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food, the rule
of thumb is approximately 5 minutes per pound. For
example, defrost 5 minutes for 2-3 cups of casserole or
1 pound of frozen spaghetti sauce.
Always stop the oven periodically to remove or separate
the portions that are defrosted. If food is not defrosted
at the end of the estimated defrosting time, program
the oven in 1 minute increments on power level 3 until
totally defrosted.
When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost
only long enough to remove from the plastic in order to
place food in a microwave-safe dish.
SENSOR COOKING
The Sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects the
vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from the food
as it heats. The Sensor adjusts the cooking times and
power level for various foods and quantities. It takes the
guesswork out of microwave cooking.
USING SENSOR SETTINGS:
1.Roomtemperatureshouldnotexceed95˚F.
2. 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.
3. Sensor cooking can only be entered within 1 minute
after cooking, opening and closing the door or touching
the STOP/CLEAR pad.
4.Duringtherstpartofsensorcooking,thefoodname
will appear on the display. Do not open oven door or
touch STOP/CLEAR during this part of the cooking
cycle. The measurement of vapor will be interrupted.
If this occurs,
ERROR
will appear and sensor cooking
will be interrupted. To continue cooking, touch the
STOP/CLEAR pad and select cooking time and pow-
er. When sensor detects the vapor emitted from the
food, remainder of cooking time will appear. Door may
be opened when remaining cooking time appears on
display. At this time, you may stir or season food, as
desired.
5. Check food for doneness after cooking with sensor
settings. If additional time is needed, continue to cook
with variable power and time.
6. If the sensor does not detect vapor,
ERROR
will appear
and the oven will shut off.
7. At the end of any cycle, open oven door or touch
STOP/CLEAR pad. The time of day will reappear on
the display.
8. Any sensor setting can be programmed with More or
Less Time Adjustment. See page 26.
SELECTING FOODS:
1. The sensor works with foods at normal storage tem-
perature. For example, foods for reheating would be
at refrigerator temperature and potatoes for baking
would be room temperature.
2. More or less food than the quantity listed in the charts
should be cooked by time and variable power.
COVERING FOODS:
Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover rec-
ommended in the Sensor Cooking chart for these foods.
1. Casserole lid.
2. Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for
microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow approx
-
imately 1/2 inch to remain uncovered to allow steam
to escape. Plastic wrap should not touch food.
3. Paper towel: Use paper towels to absorb excess fat
and moisture when cooking bacon and potatoes. Line
the turntable when baking potatoes.
4. Wax paper: Cover dish completely; fold excess wrap
under dish to secure. If dish is wider than paper, over
-
lap two pieces at least one inch to cover.

CLEANING AND CARE
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning or leave
the door open to inactivate the microwave oven
during cleaning.
EXTERIOR
The outside surface is painted. 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 damp cloth to
remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier
to maintain if wiped frequently with a damp cloth. Avoid
the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may
stain, streak or dull the door surface.
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 pad.
INTERIOR - AFTER MICROWAVE
COOKING
The oven walls, ceiling and oor are stainless steel.
Cleaning after microwave cooking is easy because no
heat is generated to the interior surfaces; therefore, there
is no baking and setting of spills or spattering. To clean
the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth and warm wa-
ter. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS
OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use mild soap;
rinse thoroughly with hot water.
INTERIOR - AFTER CONVECTION,
MIX OR BROIL COOKING
Spatters may occur because of moisture and grease.
Wash immediately after use with hot, soapy water. Rinse
and polish dry. Harder to remove spatters may occur if
microwave oven is not thoroughly cleaned or if there is
long time/high temperature cooking. If so, you may wish
to purchase an oven cleaner pad with liquid cleaner
withinit—notasoaplledsteelpad—foruseonstainless
or porcelain surfaces. Follow manufacturer’s directions
carefully and be especially cautious not to get any of the
liquid cleaner in the perforations on the wall or ceiling
or any door surfaces. Rinse thoroughly and polish dry.
WAVEGUIDE COVER
The waveguide cover is located on the ceiling in the
oven cavity. It is made from mica so requires special
care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure good
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
causesmokeorpossiblycatchre.Donotremovethe
waveguide cover.
ODOR REMOVAL
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the micro-
wave oven. To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated
peel and juice of 1 lemon and several whole cloves 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 ceramic turntable and turntable support can be
removed for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy
water; for stubborn stains use a mild cleanser and
scouring sponge as described above. They are also
dishwasher-safe using top rack.
MICROWAVE OVEN RACKS
The high and low baking racks can be removed for easy
cleaning and stored away from the microwave oven when
racks are not needed. After each use, wash them in mild,
sudsy water. For any stubborn stains, use a mild kitchen
cleanser and scouring sponge as described above. They
are dishwasher-proof.

FAN
The fan will automatically start when heat rises from the
cooking surface and when convection, high mix, low mix
or the broil settings are used. This protects the microwave
oven from excessive temperature rise. The fan will stay
on until the temperature decreases. It cannot be turned
off manually during this time.
For other uses, select either high or low speed.
PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE:
1. DO NOT leave cooking surface unattended while
using high temperatures. Automatic fan may start and
provide excessive air to the surface units. This may
cause spattering or boilover.
2. Avoid burning food.
