Oven accessories to use
When broiling foods the glass tray should be in position, with the enamel tray and the wire rack on top. Place food on wire rack on the enamel tray on the glass tray. The wire rack will allow fat to drip through into the enamel tray to reduce excess splatter and smoke when broiling steaks, chops and other fatty foods. If broiling fish or small items, place the enamel tray on top of the wire rack.
Cooking Tips:
1. Most meat items e.g. sausages, chops can be cooked on the hottest setting - Broil 1 (High). This setting is also suitable for toasting bread, muffins and teacakes etc.

5. If the temperature of the cavity is too high, Sensor Cook feature cannot be used. The message “HOT INSIDE WAIT” will appears in the display window. Sensor Cook feature can be used again when the “HOT INSIDE WAIT” message disappears. Please open the door in order to cool the temperature of the cavity more quickly.
For the best results with the GENIUS SENSOR, follow these recommendations:
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 moisture 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 two beeps sound and cooking time appears in the display. Doing so will cause inaccurate 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 standing time.
1. Defrost
This feature allows you to defrost minced meat, chops, chicken portions, meat joints. Foods should be placed in a suitable dish. Chops, chicken portions should be placed in a single layer. It is not necessary to cover the foods. Turn over or stir the food after beeps. Allow standing time so that the center of the food thaws out.
2. Popcorn
Pop one bag at a time. Place bag in oven according to manufacturers’ directions. Start with popcorn at room temperature. Allow popped corn to sit unopened for a few minutes. Open bag carefully to prevent burns, because steam will escape. Do not reheat unpopped kernels or reuse bag. If popcorn is of a diff erent weight than listed, follow instructions on popcorn package.
3. Potatoes
Pierce each potato with a fork 6 times spacing around surface. Place potato or potatoes around the edge of paper-towel-lined glass tray, at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) apart. Do not cover. Turn at beeps. Let stand 5 minutes to complete cooking.
4. Steam

Defrosting Tips & Techniques
Preparation For Freezing:
1. Freeze meats, poultry, and fish in packages with only one or two 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 underdefrosted.
5. Drain liquids during defrosting.
6. Turn over (invert) items during defrosting
After Defrosting:
1. Large items may be icy in the center. Defrosting will complete during Standing Time.
2. Let stand, covered, following standing time directions on page 28.
3. Rinse foods indicated in the chart.
4. Items which have been layered should be rinsed separately or have a longer standing time
Microwave shortcuts
Defrosting Chart
Select Defrost microwave. The times given below are a guideline only. Always check the progress of the food by opening the oven door and then re-starting. For larger quantities adjust times accordingly. Food should not be covered during defrosting.
Note: Opening the door and taking out the defrosted parts during the operating time is recommended. Turn over, stir or rearrange the parts which are still in icy
Reheating Chart
The times given in the charts below are a guideline only, and will vary depending on starting temperature, dish size etc.
Note: Always check that food is piping hot after reheating in the microwave. If unsure return to oven. Foods will still require a standing time, especially if they cannot be stirred. The denser the food the longer the standing time.

Care and Cleaning of Your Microwave Oven
Please see below and the following page for particular cleaning instructions for each section of the oven.
BEFORE CLEANING: Unplug oven at wall outlet. If outlet is inaccessible, leave oven door open while cleaning.
AFTER CLEANING: Be sure to place the Roller Ring and the Glass Tray in the proper position and press Stop/ Reset Button to clear the Display.
1. Outside oven surfaces: Clean with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into ventilation openings.
2. Label: Do not remove. Wipe with a damp cloth.
3. Inside the Oven: Wipe with a damp cloth after using. Mild detergent may be used if needed. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives.
4. Oven Door: Wipe with a soft dry cloth when steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the oven door. During cooking, especially under high humidity conditions, steam is given off from the food. (Some steam will condense on cooler surfaces, such as the oven door. This is normal.) Inside surface is covered with a heat and vapor barrier film. Do not remove.
5. Oven Cavity Floor: Clean the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent, water or window cleaner, and dry.
6. Waveguide Cover: Do not remove Waveguide Cover. It is important to keep cover clean in the same manner as the inside of the oven. Failure to do so may damage the cover.
7. Control Panel: If the Control Panel becomes wet, clean it with a soft dry cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives. For some models: The Control Panel is covered with a removable protective film to prevent scratches during shipping. Small bubbles may appear under this film, so if this is the case, remove by applying masking or clear tape to an exposed corner and pull gently.
8. Glass Tray: Remove and wash in warm soapy water or in a dishwasher.
9. Roller Ring: Roller Ring may be washed in mild soapy water or dishwasher. These areas should be kept clean to avoid excessive noise.
AS WITH ANY COOKING APPLIANCE, MICROWAVE OVENS REQUIRE THE SAME LEVEL OF CARE TO PREVENT OVERHEATING OR DAMAGE. IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE OVEN CLEAN AND DRY. FOOD RESIDUE AND CONDENSATION MAY CAUSE RUSTING OR ARCING AND DAMAGE TO THE OVEN. AFTER USE, WIPE DRY ALL SURFACES, INCLUDING VENT OPENINGS, OVEN SEAMS, AND UNDER GLASS TRAY.
NOTES:
1. After cooking, the oven should be cleaned with a soft cloth moistened with soapy water. If the oven is not cleaned occasionally to eliminate grease, it can accumulate and cause the oven to “Smoke” during use.
2. DO NOT SPRAY DIRECTLY INSIDE THE OVEN. A steam cleaner is not to be used for cleaning.
Before Requesting Service
The oven causes TV interference.
- Some radio, TV, Wi-Fi, cordless telephone, baby monitor, blue tooth or other wireless equipment interference might occur when you cook with the microwave oven. This interference is similar to the interference caused by small appliances such as mixers, vacuums, blow dryers, etc. It does not indicate a problem with your oven.
Steam accumulates on oven door and warm air comes from the oven vents.
- During cooking, steam and warm air are given off from the food. Most of the steam and warm air are removed from the oven by the air which circulates in the oven cavity. However, some steam will condense on cooler surfaces such as the oven door. This is normal. After use, the oven should be wiped dry (see page 53).
Smoke and burnt smell will occur after the first use.
- This is not a malfunction and will go away after a few uses.
