To Test Cookware/Dinnerware: Place dish in microwave oven with 1 cup (250 mL) of water beside it. Program 1 minute of cook time at 100%. If 
dish becomes hot and the water stays cool, do not use the dish in the microwave oven.
Microwave Oven Use
For list of preset programs, see the Quick Reference Guide provided with your model.
Manual Cooking/Stage Cooking
Touch COOK TIME, touch number pads to enter time, touch 
COOK POWER (if not 100%), touch number pads to enter power level 
(10 to 90), then touch the Start control.
If programming additional stages, enter the cook time and cook power 
of each before touching the Start control.
Sensor Cooking
A sensor in the microwave oven detects moisture released from food as 
it heats, and adjusts the cooking time accordingly.
Make sure microwave oven has been plugged in for at least 3 minutes. 
Use microwave-safe dish with loose-fitting lid, or cover microwave-safe 
dish with plastic wrap and vent. After convection cooking (on some 
models) or grilling (on some models), the sensor will be disabled until 
the microwave oven is cooled.
Add More Time
At the end of any cycle, “ADD MORE TIME 0:00” appears in the display. 
Enter the additional time, if desired, and start the microwave oven. The 
cook power and/or temperature (on models with convection) for all non-
sensor cycles will be the same as in the finished cycle, but may be 
changed. If Add More Time is used after a sensor cycle, the cook 
power will be 100%, but may be changed.
Keep Warm
Hot cooked food can be kept warm in the microwave oven. The Keep 
Warm function uses 10% cook power. Keep Warm can be used by itself 
or can be programmed to follow a cooking cycle. Opening the door 
during Keep Warm will cancel the function.
General Cleaning
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the 
microwave oven is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning 
products.
To avoid damage to the microwave oven caused by arcing due to soil 
buildup, keep cavity, microwave inlet cover, cooking rack supports, and 
area where the door touches the frame clean.
Clean with mild soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge, or as indicated 
below.
Grease filters: mild soap and water or dishwasher.
Door and exterior: mild soap and water, or glass cleaner applied 
to paper towel.
Control panel: sponge or soft cloth and water.
Stainless steel (on some models): mild soap and water, then rinse 
with clean water and dry with soft cloth, or use stainless steel 
cleaner.
Turntable: mild soap and water or dishwasher.
Cooking rack and supports: mild soap, water and washcloth. 
Dishwasher cleaning is not recommended.
Installing/Replacing Filters and Light Bulbs
NOTE: A filter status indicator (on some models) appears in the display 
when it is time to replace the charcoal filter, and clean or replace the 
grease filter. See “Settings” section to reset filter status.
Grease filters: Grease filters are on the underside of microwave 
oven. Clean monthly, or as prompted by filter status indicator. 
Slide the filter away from the tab area, and drop out the filter. To 
reinstall, place end of the filter into the opening opposite the tab 
area, swing up the other end, and slide it toward the tab area.
Charcoal filter: The charcoal filter is behind the vent grille at the 
top front of the microwave oven. The charcoal filter cannot be 
cleaned, and should be replaced about every 6 months, or as 
prompted by filter status indicator. Remove two screws on the 
vent grille, tilt the grille forward, lift it out, and remove filter. To 
reinstall, place the filter into its slotted area – wire mesh side up, 
replace vent grille, and secure with screws.
Cooktop light: The cooktop light bulb is located on the underside 
of the microwave oven, and is replaceable. Remove bulb cover 
screw, and open the bulb cover. Replace bulb, close bulb cover, 
and secure with screw.
Cavity light: The cavity light bulb is located behind the vent grille 
at the top front of the microwave oven, under the bulb cover, and 
is replaceable. Remove two screws on the vent grille, tilt the grille 
forward, and lift it out. Open bulb cover and replace bulb. Close 
bulb cover, replace vent grille, and secure with screws.
