are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in oven.
c. If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the power cord
or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
d. Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food in
the cavity when not in use.
9. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing
to be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed
from the microwave oven is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS
SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE
LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury to person:
e. Do not overheat the liquid.
f. Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
g. Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
h. After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the
container.
i. Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.
10. Do not heat oil or fat for deep-frying. It is difficult to control the temperature of oil in microwave oven.
11. Pierce foods with heavy skins such as potatoes, whole squash, apples and chestnuts before cooking.
12. The contents of feeding bottles and baby jars should be stirred or shaken and the temperature should be
checked before serving in order to avoid burns.
13. Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated food. Potholders may be
needed to handle the utensil.
14. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.

not operate the oven and contact your dealer.
See Installation Instruction for more details.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance 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. This appliance 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 appliance is properly grounded
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 20 amps. It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only the oven be provided. The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into
a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded.
EXTENSION CORD
1. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding
plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the microwave oven. The marked rating of the
extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance, or
2. 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 appliance.
RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE
Should there be any interference caused by the microwave oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave
oven is on a different circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from the oven as feasible or check position
and signal of receiving antenna.

INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
•
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 anticlockwise. See page 9 for
complete instructions.
•
•
•
ALWAYS have food in the 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.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. 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.
In using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before the minimum time and add
time accordingly.
•

ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING
•
•
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. Covers 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 overcooking
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 that allows
the food to finish cooking without overcooking.
Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking temperatures have been reached.
o
Doneness signs include:
ƒ
ƒ
ƒ
ƒ
ƒ
Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.
Poultry thigh joins move easily.
Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
ABOUT SAFETY
Check foods to see that they are cooked to the following recommended temperatures.
TEMP
160°
165°
170°
180°
FOOD
…for fresh pork, ground meat, boneless white poultry, fish, seafood,
egg dishes and frozen prepared food.
…for leftover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated, and deli and carry-out
“fresh” food.
…white meat of poultry.
…dark meat of poultry.
o
To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a thick or dense area away from fat of bone.
NEVER leave the thermometer in the food during cooking, unless it is approved for microwave oven
use.
o
o
o
ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when handling utensils that are in contact with hot food.
Enough heat from the food can transfer through utensils to cause skin burns.
Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge of a
dish’s covering and carefully open popcorn and oven cooking bags away from the face.
Stay near the oven while it’s in use and check cooking progress frequently so that there is no chance of
overcooking food.
o
o
NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or other items.
Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve its high quality and minimize the spread of
food-borne bacteria.
o
o
Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can cause arcing and/or fires.
Use care when removing items from the oven so that utensil, your clothes or accessories do not touch
the safety door latches.

ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces already in your kitchen can be used successfully in
your new microwave oven. Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls during cooking.
Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and reheating:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Glass ceramic
Heat-resistant glass
Microwave-safe plastics
Paper plates
Microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain
Browning dish
Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and microwave on
HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be used.
These items can be used for short time reheating of foods that have little fat or sugar in them:
•
wood, straw, wicker
DO NOT USE
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Metal pans and bake ware
Dishes with metallic trim
Non-heat-resistant glass
Non-microwave-safe plastic
Recycled paper bags
Food storage bags
Metal twist-ties
The following coverings are ideal:
•
•
•
Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.
Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.
Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave use can be used for cooking and reheating. DO
NOT allow plastic wrap to touch food. Vent so steam can escape.
•
•
Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice because heat is kept near the food to hasten cooking.
Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or foods that need tenderizing. DO NOT use metal twist
ties. Remember to slit bag so steam can escape.
How to use aluminum foil in your microwave oven:
•
Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on the food can be used to shield areas that are
either defrosting or cooking too quickly.
•
Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface of the oven.
ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before you
purchase so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in determining correct
doneness and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures. Sunbeam is not responsible for any
damage to the oven when accessories are used.
ABOUT CHILD SAFETY
•
Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave oven with a supervising person very near to
them. Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person should be in the same room.
The children must be able to reach the oven comfortably; if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.
At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the oven door.
Children should be taught all safety precautions; use potholders, remove coverings carefully and pay
special attention to packages that crisp food because they may be extra hot.
•
•
•
•
•
Don’t assume that because a child has mastered one cooking skill he/she can cook everything.
Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not a toy.

CLEAN AND CARE
Exterior
The outside surface is pre-coated steel and plastic. Clean the outside with mild soap and water; rinse and dry
with a soft cloth. Do not use any type of household or abrasive cleaner.
Door
Wipe the window on both sides with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to
maintain if wiped frequently with a damp cloth. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may stain,
streak or dull the door surface.
Touch control panel
Care should be taken in cleaning the touch control panel. If the control panel becomes soiled, open the oven
door before cleaning. Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened slightly with water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do
not scrub or use any sort of chemical cleaners. Close door and touch STOP/CLEAR.
Interior
Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting
of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth and warm water. DO NOT USE
ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use baking soda or a mild soap;
rinse thoroughly with hot water.
Waveguide Cover
The waveguide cover is located on the ceiling in the oven cavity. It is made from mica so requires special care.
Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure good oven performance. Carefully wipe with a damp cloth any
food spatters from the surface of the cover immediately after they occur. Built-up splashes may overheat and
cause smoke or possibly catch fire. DO NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER.
Odor Removal
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the oven. To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and juice
of 1 lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass measuring cup. Boil for several minutes using 100% power.
Allow to set in oven until cool. Wipe interior with a soft cloth.
Turntable/Turntable Support
The turntable and turntable support can be removed for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy water; for
stubborn stains use a mild cleanser and non-abrasive scouring sponge as described above. They are also
dishwasher-proof. Use upper rack of dishwasher. The turntable motor shaft is not sealed, so excess water or
spills should be wiped up immediately.
Grease Filters
Grease filter
Filters should be cleaned at least once a month. Never
operate the fan or oven without the filters in place.
1. Pull down slightly on the tab toward the front of the
oven and remove the filter. Repeat for the other filter.
2. Soak the filter in a sink or dish pan filled with hot
water and detergent. DO NOT use ammonia or other
alkali; they will react with the filter material and
darken it.
3. Agitate and scrub with a brush to remove embedded
dirt.
4. Rinse thoroughly and shake dry.
5. Replace by fitting the filter back into the opening.
Tab
Fan
The fan will automatically start when heat rises from range surface units or burners. This protects the
microwave oven from excessive temperature rise. The fan will stay on until the temperature decreases. It cannot
be turned off manually during this time.
For other uses, select either HI or LO speed.
