PARTS AND FEATURES
This manual may cover several different models. The model you have purchased may have some or all of the features shown here. The
appearance of your particular model may differ slightly from the illustrations in this manual.
Oven Cavity Coating
The oven has a durable, nonstick coating that resists soil buildup
by making cleaning easier than in conventional microwave ovens.
For cleaning information, see “General Cleaning” section.
Microwave System – ACCUWAVE
®
Technology
The microwave system delivers a constant stream of microwave
power – true high, medium and low power.
Typically, microwave ovens operate on HIGH power only. For
example, to achieve a 50% power level (“medium”) in a typical
microwave oven, the oven operates 50% of the time at HIGH
power and 50% of the time OFF.
In contrast, ovens utilizing this microwave system deliver the
selected power level continuously. This constant stream of
microwave power helps to minimize overcooking of foods and
messy food spatters.
Sensor Cooking
The microwave system features the 6th SENSE™ cooking
system. A humidity sensor in the oven cavity detects moisture
and humidity emitted from food as it heats. The sensor adjusts
cooking times to various types and amounts of food. Sensor
cooking takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.
Grill Element
The oven uses a 1,000-watt halogen bulb with a 500-watt quartz
bulb to serve as the grill element for various cooking functions.
When the element is in use, the halogen bulb glows very brightly,
while the glow of the quartz bulb is barely–if at all–visible. (See
“Troubleshooting” for quartz bulb testing.) The oven cavity and
door will become hot. The use of oven mitts is recommended.
