During microwaving, steam may come from the right side of
the vent.

100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is
normal for the exterior of the drawer to be warm to the touch
when cooking or reheating.

The Microwave in a Drawer is for food preparation only. It
should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.

IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package directions,
check food a minute or two before the minimum time and add
time accordingly.
When opening or closing the Microwave in a Drawer quickly,
food in the Drawer may be spilled. To clean, please refer to the

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.
• Shieldwithsmallatpiecesofaluminumfoilanythinareas
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 right to left.
• Add standing time. Remove food from Drawer and stir, if
possible. Cover for standing time which allows the food to
nishcookingwithoutovercooking.
• 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 UTENSILS AND COVERINGS
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces
already in your kitchen can be used successfully in your new
Microwave. Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior
walls during cooking.
Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and reheating:
• glass ceramic (Pyroceram®), such as Corningware®.
• heat-resistant glass (Pyrex®)
• microwave-safe plastics
• microwave-safe paper plates
