Features
Turntable
Turntable may be turned off (on some models) for manual cooking 
only. This is helpful when cooking with plates that are bigger than 
the turntable, or when cooking with plates that are side by side. 
Turntable cannot be turned off during preset or sensor (on some 
models) functions.
Convection Element and Fan (on some models)
The convection element and fan are embedded in the wall of the 
microwave oven cavity, behind the metal screen.
Cooking Rack (on some models)
Use only for 2-level cooking. To avoid damage to the microwave 
oven, always remove rack after 2-level cooking. To avoid damage 
to the microwave oven due to soil buildup, clean rack supports 
often.
Grill Element (on some models)
The grill element has a 1,000-watt halogen bulb and a 500-watt 
quartz bulb. The halogen bulb glows very brightly, but the quartz 
bulb has a very faint glow that might not be visible.
Progress Bar
The progress bar is a visual picture of the estimated running time of 
sensor functions. It appears under “Sensing” in the display.
6th SENSE™ System
A sensor in the microwave oven detects moisture released from 
food as it heats, and adjusts the cooking time accordingly.
ACCUWAVE
®
 Technology (on some models)
This microwave system delivers a constant stream of the selected 
microwave power, whereas typical microwave systems deliver only 
intervals of 100% and 0% power
Interactive Touch Display
The LCD interactive touch display is designed to be easily 
navigable, guiding you through the menus, offering multiple 
selections, accepting your input and executing your commands. 
It also shows instructions, tips and graphics.
TRUCAPTURE
®
 Ventilation System (on some models)
The vent fan comes on automatically during convection and grill 
cooking (on some moodels), and it also comes on if the cooktop 
below gets too hot.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, 
fire, or electrical shock.
WARNING
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE  INSTRUCTIONS
■  
For all cord connected appliances:
The microwave oven must be grounded. In the event of 
an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of 
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric 
current. The microwave oven is equipped with a cord 
having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug 
must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed 
and grounded.
WARNING: 
Improper use of the grounding plug can 
result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified 
electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are 
not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether 
the microwave oven is properly grounded. 
Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is 
too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install 
an outlet near the microwave oven.
This device complies with Part 18 of the FCC Rules.
