To Install:

1.Install the hub into the hole in the center of the microwave oven cavity bottom

2.Place the support on the microwave oven cavity bottom.

3.Place the turntable on the support.

Fit the raised, curved mounds in the center of the turntable bottom between the three spokes of the hub.

MICROWAVE OVEN CONTROL

Display

When power is first supplied to the microwave oven, ???0:00??? will appear in the display. If the ???0:00??? appears in the display at any other time, a power failure has occurred.Reset the clock if needed. See ???Clock??? section. When the microwave oven is in use, the display shows cook time remaining. When the microwave oven is not in use, the display shows the time of day (if the clock is set) or Timer countdown.

A magnetron in the microwave oven produces micro waves which reflect off the metal floor, walls and ceiling and pass through the turntable and appropriate

cookware to the food. Microwaves are attracted to and absorbed by fat, sugar and water molecules in the food, causing them to move, producing friction and heat which cooks the food.

1.To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not lean on or allow children to swing on the microwave oven door.

2.To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not operate when it is empty.

3.Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in microwave oven.

4.Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, paper, including brown paper bags and newspaper,should not be dried in microwave oven.

5.Paraffin wax will not melt in the microwave oven because it does not absorb microwaves.

6.Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing con

tainers from microwave oven.

7. Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the reco mmended cook time, potatoes should be slightly

firm. Let potatoes stand for 5 minutes. They will

finish cooking while standing.

8. Do not cook or reheat whole eggs inside the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst, requiring significant cleanup of microwave oven cavity. Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time.

Food Characteristics

When microwave cooking, the amount, size and shape, starting temperature, composition and density of the

food affect cooking results.

Amount of Food

The more food heated at once, the longer the cook time needed. Check for doneness and add small increments of time if necessary.

Size and Shape

Smaller pieces of food will cook more quickly than larger pieces, and uniformly shaped foods cook more evenly than irregularly shaped food.

Starting Temperature

Room temperature foods will heat faster than refrigerated

foods, and refrigerated foods will heat faster than frozen foods.

Composition and Density

Foods high in fat and sugar will reach a higher temper ature, and will heat faster than other foods. Heavy, dense foods, such as meat and potatoes, require a

longer cook time than the same size of a light, porous food, such as cake.

Cooking Guidelines

Covering

Covering food helps retain moisture, shorten cook time and reduce spattering. Use the lid supplied with cookware. If a

lid is not available, wax paper, paper towels or plastic wrap approved for microwave ovens may be used. Plastic wrap

should be turned back at one corner to provide an opening

to vent steam.Condensation on the door and cavity surfaces is normal during heavy cooking.

Stirring and Turning

Stirring and turning redistribute heat evenly to avoid over cooking the outer edges of food. Stir from outside to

center. If possible, turn food over from bottom to top.

Arranging

If heating irregularly shaped or different sized foods, arrange the thinner parts and smaller sized items toward the center.If cooking several items of the same size and shape, place them in a ring pattern, leaving the center of the ring empty.

Piercing

Before heating, use a fork or small knife to pierce or prick foods that have a skin or membrane, such as potatoes, egg yolks,chicken livers, hot dogs, and sausage. Prick in several places to allow steam to vent.

Shielding

Use small, flat pieces of aluminum foil to shield the thin pieces of irregularly shaped foods, bones and foods such as chicken wings, leg tips and fish tail. See ???Aluminum Foil and Metal??? first.

Standing Time

Food will continue to cook by the natural conduction of heat even after the microwave cooking cycle ends. The length of standing time depends on the volume and density of the food.

Cookware and Dinnerware

Cookware and dinnerware must fit on the turntable. Always use oven mitts or pot holders when handling

because any dish may become hot from heat transf erred from the food. Do not use cookware and

dinnerware with gold or silver trim. Use the following chart as a guide, then test before using.

above the turntable. Follow manufacturer???s recommendations.

Ceramic Glass, Acceptable for use .

Glass

Potteryand Clay Follow manufacturer???s recommendations.

To Test Cookware or Dinnerware for Microwave Use:

1.Place cookware or dinnerware in microwave oven with

1cup (250 mL) of water beside it.

2.Cook at 100% cooking power for 1 minute.

Do not use cookware or dinnerware if it becomes hot and the water stays cool.

Aluminum Foil and Metal

Always use oven mitts or pot holders when removing dishes from the microwave oven.

Aluminum foil and some metal can be used in the microwave

oven. If not used properly, arcing (a blue flash of light) can occur and cause damage to the microwave oven.

OK for Use

Racks and bakeware supplied with the microwave oven (on some models),aluminum foil for shielding, and approved meat thermometers may be used with the following guidelines:

1.To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow aluminum foil or metal to touch the inside cavity walls, ceiling or floor.

2.Always use the turntable.

3.To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow contact with another metal object during microwave cooking.

Do Not Use

Metal cookware and bakeware, gold, silver, pewter, non- approved meat thermometers, skewers, twist ties, foil liners such as sandwich wrappers, staples and objects with gold or silver trim or a metallic glaze should not be used in the microwave oven.

Microwave Cooking Power

Many recipes for microwave cooking specify which cooking power to use by percent, name or number. For example,

70% = 7 = Medium-High.

Use the following chart as a general guide for the suggested cooking power of specific foods.

PERCENT/NAME NUMBER USE

DO NOT use any other Glass Tray with this oven.

If Glass Tray is hot, ALLOW TO COOL before cleaning or placing it in water.

DO NOT cook directly on the Glass Tray.

*The oven doesn???t work :

1.Check that the power cord is securely plugged in.

2.Check that the door is firmly closed.

3.Check that the cooking time is set.

4.Check for a blown circuit fuse or tripped main circuit breaker in your house.

*Sparking in the cavity;

1.Check utensils. Metal containers or dishes with metal trim should not be used.

2.Check that metal skewers or foil does not touch the interior walls.

If there is still a problem, contact the service station. A list of these stations is included in the oven.

1.It is important not to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks.

2.Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Wipe the sealing area frequently with a mild detergent, rinse and dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads.

3.When opened, the door must not be subjected to strain, for example, a child hanging on an opened door or any load could cause the oven to fall forward to cause injury and also damage to the door. Do not operate the oven if it is damaged, until it has been repaired by a competent service technician. It is particularly important that the oven closes properly and that there is no damage to the:

i)Door(bent)

ii)Hinges and Hookes(broken or loosened)

iii)Door seals and sealing surfaces.

4.The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except a properly competent service technician.

5.The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed;

6.Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.

*Q :Can the oven be used with the glass tray or roller guide removed?

*A : No. Both the glass tray and roller guide must always be used in the oven before cooking.

*Q :Can I open the door when the oven is operating?

*A : The door can be opened anytime during the cooking operation. Then microwave energy will be instantly switched off and the time setting will maintain until the door is closed.

*Q :Why do I have moisture in my microwave oven after cooking?

*A : The moisture on the side of your microwave oven is normal. It is caused by steam from cooking food hitting the cool oven surface.

*Q :Does microwave energy pass through the viewing screen in the door?

*A : No. The metal screen bounces back the energy to the oven cavity. The holes are made to allow light to pass through. They do not let microwave energy pass through.

*Q :Why do eggs sometimes pop?

*A : When baking or poaching eggs, the yolk may pop due to steam build-up inside the yolk membrane. To prevent this, simply pierce the yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never cook eggs without piercing their shells.

*Q :Why this standing time recommended after the cooking operation has been completed?

*A : Standing time is very important.

With microwave cooking, the heat is in the food, not in the oven. Many foods build up enough internal heat to allow the cooking process to continue, even after the food is removed from the oven. Standing time for joints of meat, large vegetables and cakes is to allow the inside to cook completely, without overcooking the outside.

*Q :What does ???standing time??? mean?

*A : ???Standing time??? means that food should be removed from the oven and covered for additional time to allow it to finish cooking. This frees the oven for other cooking.

*Q :Why does my oven not always cook as fast as the microwave cooking guide says?

*A : Check your cooking guide again, to make sure you???ve followed directions exactly ; and to see what might cause variations in cooking time.

Cooking guide times and heat settings are suggestions, to help prevent over-cooking... the most common problem in getting used to a microwave oven.

Variations in the size, shape and weights and dimensions could require longer cooking time. Use your own judgement along with the cooking guide suggestions to check whether the food has been properly cooked just as you would do with a conventional cooker.

*Q :Will the microwave oven be damaged if it operates while empty?

*A : Yes. Never run it empty.

*Q : Can I operate my microwave oven without the turntable or turn the turntable over to hold a large dish?

*A : No. If you remove or turn over the turntable, you will get poor cooking results. Dishes used in your oven must fit on the turntable.

*Q : Is it normal for the turntable to turn in either direction?

*A : Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, depending on the rotation of the motor when the cooking cycle begins.

*Q : Can I pop popcorn in my microwave oven? How do I get the best results?

*A : Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn following manufacture???s guidelines. Do not use regular paper bags. Use the ???listening test??? by stopping the oven as soon as the popping slows to a ???pop??? every 1 or 2 seconds. Do not repop unpopped kernels. Do not pop popcorn in glass cookware.

Do not attempt to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks.

Do not place any object between the oven front frame and the door or allow residue to build up on sealing surfaces. Wipe with a mild detergent, rinse and dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads.

Do not subject the oven door to strain or weight such as a child hanging on an open door.

This could cause the oven to fall forward resulting in injury to you and damage to the oven.

Do not operate the oven if door seals or sealing surfaces are damaged; or if door is bent; or if hinges are loose or broken.

Do not operate the oven empty. This will damage the oven.

Do not attempt to dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven. They may catch on fire.

Do not use recycled paper products as they may contain impurities which may cause sparks or fires. Do not hit or strike the control panel with hard objects. This can damage the oven.

Never use your microwave oven for home canning. The oven is not designed for proper home canning. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume.

Always use the minimum recipe cooking time. It is better to undercook rather than overcook foods. Undercooked foods can be returned to the oven for more cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be done.

Heat small quantities of food or foods with low moisture carefully. These can quickly dry out, burn or catch on fire.

Do not heat eggs in the shell. Pressure may build up and eggs can explode.

Potatoes, apples, egg yolks and sausages are examples of food with non-porous skins.

These must be pierced before cooking to prevent bursting.

Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven. Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off to allow the

temperature to even out, stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after heating.

Do not leave the oven unattended while popping corn. Do not pop corn in a paper bag unless it is the commercially prepared Microwave Popcorn product. The kernels can overheat and ignite a brown paper bag.

Do not put packaged Microwave Popcorn bags directly on the oven tray. Place the package on a microwave safe glass or ceramic plate to avoid overheating and cracking the oven tray.

Do not exceed the Microwave Popcorn manufacturers suggested popping time.

Longer popping does not yield more popcorn but it can result in buring the popcorn or risk of fire. Remember, the Popcorn bag and tray can be too hot to handle.

Remove with caution and use pot holders.
