About your oven
This Use and Care Guide is valuable: read it carefully
and always save it for reference.
NEVER  use  the  oven  without  the  turntable  and
support nor turn the turntable over so that a large
dish could be placed in the oven. The turntable will
turn both clockwise and counterclockwise.
ALWAYS have food in the Microwave Oven when it
is on to absorb the microwave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%,
you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It
is normal for the exterior of the oven to be warm to
the touch when cooking or reheating.
About microwave cooking
•  Place  food  in  the  center  of  the  oven  cavity.
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.  Cov-
ers prevent spattering and help foods to cook
evenly.
•  Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any
thin  areas  of  meat  or  poultry  to  prevent  over-
cooking  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 the center of the dish to the outside.
•  Add  standing  time.  Remove  food  from  oven
and  stir,  if  possible.  Cover  for  standing  time
which allows the food to finish cooking without
overcooking.
•  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.
-  Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Information You Need To Know
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cook-
ing.  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. Ventilation
openings must not be blocked.
The Microwave Oven is for food preparation only. It
should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.
Your Microwave Oven is rated 1200 watts by using
the IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package
directions, check food a minute or two before the
minimum time and add time accordingly.
