USING ThE AUTO dEFROST PAd
Defrost choices are preset in the oven. The defrost feature provides you with the best defrosting
method for frozen foods, because the oven automatically sets the defrosting times according to
the weight you enter. For added convenience, the auto defrost beeps to remind you to check or
turn over the food during the defrost cycle.
After touching the Auto DeFrost pad once, select the food weight. Available weight ranges
are 0.1 To 6.0 Lbs.
1. Touch Auto DeFrost pad.
2. Touch number pads to enter the weight.
3. Touch enter/stArt pad.
• After you touch enter/ stArt pad, the display counts down the defrost time. The
oven will beep twice during the defrost cycle. At this time, open the door and turn the
food as needed. Remove any portions that have thawed then return frozen portions to
the oven and touch enter/stArt pad to resume the defrost cycle.
• The oven will not stop during the beep unless the door is opened.
Defrost tips
• When using auto defrost, the weight to be entered is the net weight in pounds and tenths of
pounds (the weight of the food minus the container).
• Use auto defrost only for raw food. Auto defrost gives best results when food to be thawed is
a minimum of 0°f (taken directly from a true freezer). If food has been stored in a refrigerator-
freezer that does not maintain a temperature of 5°f or below, always program a lower food
weight (for a shorter defrosting time) to prevent cooking the food.
• If the food is stored outside the freezer for up to 20 minutes, enter a lower food weight.
• The shape of the package alters the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular packets defrost more
quickly than a deep block.
• Separate pieces as they begin to defrost. Separated pieces defrost more easily.
• Shield areas of food with small pieces of foil if they start to become warm.
• You can use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield foods like chicken wings, leg tips, and fish
tails, but the foil must not touch the side of the oven. Foil causes arcing, which can damage the
oven lining.

cooking instructions
COOkING UTENSILS
Recommended use
• glass and glass - ceramic bowls and dishes - Use for heating or cooking.
• microwavable plastic wrap - Use to cover. Leave a small opening for some steam to escape
and avoid placing it directly on the food.
• wax paper - Use as a cover to prevent spattering.
• paper towels and napkins - Use for short-term heating and covering; they absorb excess
moisture and prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal
and can catch fire.
• paper plates and cups - Use for short-term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled
paper, which may contain metal and can catch fire.
• thermometers - Use only those labeled “Microwave-Safe” and follow all directions. Check
the food in several places. Conventional thermometers may be used once the food has been
removed from the oven.
Limited use
• Aluminum foil - Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too
much foil can damage your oven, so be careful.
• Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware - Use these if they are labeled “Microwave-Safe”. If they
are not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used safely. Never use dishes with metallic
trim.
• plastic - Use only if labeled “Microwave-Safe”. Other plastics can melt.
• straw, wicker, and wood - Use only for short-term heating, as they can be flammable.
Not recommended
• glass jars and bottles - Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave, and can shatter.
• paper bags - These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for
microwave use.
• styrofoam plates and cups - These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food.
• plastic storage and food containers - Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in the
microwave.
• metal utensils - These can damage your oven. Remove all metal before cooking.

TESTING UTENSILS
If you are not sure whether a dish is microwave-safe or not, you can perform this test:
1. Fill 1 cup of glass measuring cup with water and
put it inside your oven, next to the dish you want to
test.
2. Touch the one minute + button once to heat them for one minute at high power.
The water should be warm and the dish you are testing should be cool. If the dish is warm, then it
is absorbing microwave energy and is not acceptable for use in the microwave.
GENERAL mICROWAVE TIPS
• Dense foods, such as potatoes, take longer to heat than lighter foods. Foods with a delicate
texture should be heated at a low power level to avoid becoming tough.
• Altitude and the type of cookware you are using can affect cooking time. When using a new
recipe, use the minimum cooking time and check the food occasionally to prevent overcooking.
• Foods with a non-porous skin such as potatoes or hot dogs, should be pierced to prevent
bursting.
• Frying with heating oil or fat is not recommended. Fat and oil can suddenly boil over and cause
severe burns.
• Some ingredients heat faster than others. For example a jelly doughnut will be hotter than the
dough. Keep this in mind to avoid burns.
• Home canning in the microwave oven is not recommended because all harmful bacteria may
not be destroyed by the microwave heating process.
• Although microwaves do not heat the cookware, the heat from the food is often transferred to
the cookware. Always use pot holders when removing food from the microwave and instruct
children to do the same.
• Making candy in the microwave is not recommended as candy can be heated to very high
temperatures. Keep this in mind to avoid injury.

COOkING TEChNIqUES
Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the
outside of the dish absorbs more energy and heats more quickly, so stir from the outside to the
center. The oven will turn off when you open the door to stir your food.
Arrangement
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker, meatier
parts toward the outside of the turntable where they receive more microwave energy. To prevent
overcooking, place thin or delicate parts toward the center of the turntable.
Shielding
Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Areas that need shielding
include poultry wing-tips, the ends of poultry legs, and corners of square baking dishes. Use only
small amounts of aluminum foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven.
Turning
Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to microwave energy. This is
especially important with large items such as roasts.
Standing
Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal heat and continue to cook for a few minutes
after the oven stops. Let foods stand to complete cooking, especially foods such as roasts and
whole vegetables. Roasts need this time to complete cooking in the center without overcooking
the outer areas. All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate, should be shaken or stirred when
cooking is complete. Let liquids stand a moment before serving. When heating baby food, stir well
and test the temperature before serving.
Adding moisture
Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content should
be covered or allowed to stand so that the heat disperses evenly. Add a small amount of water to
dry food to help it cook.
Venting
After covering dish with plastic wrap, you vent plastic wrap by turning back one corner so excess
steam can escape.

COOkING GUIdE
Guide for cooking eggs in your microwave
• Never cook eggs in the shell, and never warm hard-cooked eggs in the shell; they can explode.
• Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting.
• Cook eggs just until set; they become tough if overcooked.
Guide for cooking vegetables in your microwave
• Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Often, no extra water is needed. If dense
vegetables such as potatoes, carrots and green beans are being cooked, add about ¼ cup of
water.
• Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) Can be cooked faster than larger ones.
• Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or corn on the cob, should be arranged in
a circle on the turntable before cooking. They will be cooked more evenly if turned over after
half the cooking time.
• Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem ends pointing towards the
edge of the dish and the tips toward the center.
• When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or vented microwavable plastic
wrap.
• Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash, eggplant, etc., Should have their skin
pricked in several spots before cooking to prevent them from bursting.
• For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway through the cooking time.
• Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing time. (Standing time refers to the time
necessary for dense, large foods and vegetables to finish cooking after they come out of the
oven.) A baked potato can stand on the counter for five minutes before cooking is completed,
while a dish of peas can be served immediately.

CARE ANd CLEANING
• Follow these instructions to clean and care for your oven.
• Keep the inside of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the oven walls,
causing the oven to work less efficiently.
• Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use harsh detergents or
abrasives.
• To help loosen baked on food particles or liquids, heat two cups of water (add the juice of one
lemon if you desire to keep the oven fresh) in a four-cup measuring glass at High power for five
minutes or until boiling. Let stand in the oven for one or two minutes.
• Remove the glass tray from the oven when cleaning the oven or tray. To prevent the tray from
breaking, handle it carefully and do not put it in water immediately after cooking. Wash the tray
carefully in warm sudsy water or in the dishwasher.
• Clean the outside surface of the oven with soap and a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth. To
prevent damage to the operating parts of the oven, don’t let water seep into the openings.
• Wash the door window with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft cloth to avoid
scratching.
• If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can
accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates microwave
leakage.
• Never operate the oven without food in it; this can damage the magnetron tube or glass tray.
You may wish to leave a cup of water in the oven when it is not in use to prevent damage if the
oven is accidentally turned on.
