ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
This Installation/Use and Care Manual is valuable: read it carefully and always
save it for reference.
A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it for microwave cook-
ing principles, techniques, hints and recipes.
NEVER use the microwave oven without the turntable and support nor turn
the turntable over so that a large dish could be placed in the microwave oven.
The turntable will turn both clockwise and counterclockwise.
ALWAYS have food in the microwave oven when it is on to absorb the micro-
wave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magne-
tron cycling on and off.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and
the moisture in food will influence the amount of moisture that condenses in
the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as
uncovered ones. Vents on the oven back must not be blocked.
After using convection, automatic mix or broil, you will hear the sound of the
cooling fan. The fan may continue to operate as long as 5 minutes, depending
on the oven temperature.
Be aware that, unlike microwave-only ovens, convection microwave ovens have
a tendency to become hot during convection, automatic mix and broil cooking.
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be used to dry clothes or
newspapers.
Your microwave output is rated 900 watts using the IEC Test Procedure. In
using recipes or package directions, check food at the minimum time and add
time accordingly.
INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
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 microwave 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 microwave oven door.
Children should be taught all safety precautions: use potholders, remove cov-
erings 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 page 33 for
Child Lock feature.
