12 COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS Bakeware The material of bakeware aff ects how evenly and quickly it transfers heat from the pan to the food.

Material Attributes Recommendation Shiny metal bakeware Shiny, aluminum, and non-coat-

ed bakeware is the best for even heating. It is suitable for all baked goods.

Recommended cooking temperatures and times are based on shiny metal bakeware.

Dark metal bakeware Dark bakeware cooks hotter than shiny bakeware.

Reduce the cooking temperature by 25F (13-14C) when using dark bake- ware.

Glass bakeware Glass bakeware cooks hotter than shiny bakeware.

Glass is convenient, as the same piece of bakeware can be used for cooking, serving, and storing food.

Reduce the cooking temperature by 25F (13-14C) when using glass bake- ware.

Insulated bakeware Insulated bakeware cooks cooler than shiny bakeware.

Insulated bakeware is designed for baking in gas ovens.

When using insulated bakeware, the recipe baking time may be longer than usual.

13COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS

Cooking Conditions Conditions in your kitchen can aff ect the performance of your appliance when cooking food.

Condition Attributes Recommendation Aging cookware As pans age and become

discolored, cooking times may need to be reduced slightly.

If food is too dark or overcooked, use the minimum cook time in the recipe or packag- ing.

If food is too light or undercooked, use the middle to maximum cook time in the recipe or packaging.

High altitude Air is drier and air pressure is lower.

Water boils at a lower tem- perature, and liquids evapo- rate faster.

Foods may take longer to bake.

Doughs may rise faster.

Adjust cooking temperature, cooking time, or recipes as needed.

Increase amount of liquid in baking recipes.

Increase cook time on cooktop. Cover dishes to reduce evaporation.

Increase bake time or oven temperature.

Reduce amount of baking soda or baking powder in recipe. Reduce rising time or punch down dough and allow it to rise twice.

Cooking Results Small adjustments may help you achieve the best results.

Result Recommendation Food too light Use the middle to maximum cook time recommended on packaging or recipe.

Food too dark Use the minimum cook time recommended on packaging or recipe.

Cooking Tips Use these additional tips to get the best results from your appliance.

Situation Recommendation Baking

Rack placement Follow the instructions in particular oven mode starting in Setting Oven Con- trols on page 19.

Preheat Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits and breads. Insert food immediately after the beep.

Checking food Use the window and oven light when checking food. Opening the door may reduce baking performance.

Bake or Convection Bake Convection bake is the best function to use for baking on multiple racks. For best performance, see.Convection Bake on page 23

Steam Bake For directions, tips, and bene ts of Steam Bake see Steam Bake on page 35.

Food placement Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware for proper air cir- culation.

14 COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS

Material Recommendation Broiling / Roasting

Broiling pan For best results when broiling, use a broil pan with an insert designed to drain the fat from the food, help avoid spatter, and reduce smoking. The broiler pan will catch grease spills, and the insert helps prevent grease splatters.

Convection Cooking Convection attri- butes

Convection cooking uses a fan to circulate hot air around the oven and food. It browns food more evenly and reduces hot spots in the oven.

Convection saves time when using multiple racks or cooking several food items at once.

Convection bake Reduce cooking temperature by 25 F (13-14 C) from the recipe unless the recipe is written for convection baking.

Preheat the oven for best results.

Convection roast Convection roast is best for meats and does not require preheating for most meats and poultry.

Reducing the cooking temperature for convection roast is not recommended. Carefully follow your recipes temperature and time recommendations, adjusting the cooking time if the recipe does not specify convection roasting time.

Since convection roast cooks faster, cook time may be reduced by 25% to 40% depending on food type. You can reduce cook times by 25% from the recom- mended time of your recipe, and check the food at this time. If needed, continue cooking until the desired doneness is obtained.

Use the meat probe included with your appliance. Meat probes are also available from most grocery and home goods stores.

Arrange oven racks so large cuts of meat and poultry are on the lowest rack of the oven.

Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will prevent the meat from browning properly.

When cooking meats, use the broiler pan and insert or a roasting rack. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert helps prevent grease splatters.

15BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Figure 1: Oven vent

Flat oven racks may be used for most cooking needs and may be placed in most oven rack positions.

The fully extendable glide rack makes food preparation easier. This oven rack has glide tracks that allow the rack to be pulled away from the oven without rubbing the sides of the oven wall. See glide rack instructions on next page.

Figure 2: Oven rack types

CAUTION Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven exterior, oven racks, and cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns.

Remove all oven racks before starting a self clean cycle. If oven racks are left inside the oven during a cleaning cycle, the slide ability of the oven racks may be damaged and all of the oven racks will lose their shiny nish.

To prevent possible damage to the oven, do not attempt to close the oven door until all the oven racks are fully positioned back inside the oven cavity.

WARNING Protective Liners Do not use aluminum foil or any other material or liners to line the oven bottom, walls, racks or any other part of the range. Doing so will alter the heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and possibly cause permanent damage to the oven interior. Improp- er installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or re. During self clean, tempera- tures in the oven will be hot enough to melt foil.

Oven Vent Location The oven is vented as shown below. When the oven is on, warm air is released through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. Do not block oven vent. Never close off the openings with aluminum foil or any other material. Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent. This is normal. Types of Oven Rack

Convection Bake Convection Bake uses a fan to circulate the ovens heat uniformly around the oven. This improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and browning results. Heated air ows around the food from all sides.

Convection bake may be set for any oven tempera- ture between 170F (77C) and 550F (288C).

Bene ts of convection cooking include: Multiple rack baking. Convection baking tips: Use Convection Bake for best results when

baking cookies and cakes on 2 racks.

For best results it is recommended to preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, bis- cuits and breads and move pans to front of the racks.

If your recipe is not written for convection bak- ing, reduce the oven temperature by 25 or use Convection Convert option.

No special pans or bakeware required.

For cookies use the following racks:

Single rack baking use 3 (glide rack).

Two rack baking use 2 ( at) and 5 (glide).

For baking cakes use the rack positions above and place bakeware as shown in Figure 3.

Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans with no sides or very low side to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food items baked on pans with a dark nish will cook fast- er.

Leave oven lights off while baking.

Convection Convert

Convection Convert automatically reduces the oven temperature from what is speci ed in most baking recipes to compensate for the increased cooking effi ciency of convection baking.

Air Sous Vide Air Sous Vide is ideal for cooking meats to achieve tenderness without overcooking.

How Sous Vide Works

Sous vide is a French phrase meaning under vacu- um. In sous vide cooking, food is vacuum-sealed in plastic pouches, which are then placed in a cooking medium of hot water or air.

Your appliance uses hot air circulating around sealed pouches to cook food slowly at relatively low temperatures: 100F to 205F (38C to 94C). Sous vide cooking is not fast, but with a little plan- ning, it can be very easy.

Advantages of Sous Vide

Food does not lose avor or aroma due to evaporation.

Vitamins and minerals do not escape during cooking.

The low cooking temperature leaves meat and sh more tender.

Less spice is needed, as food keeps more of its natural avor.

The low cooking temperature greatly reduces the risk of overcooking. The food never gets hotter than the intended serving temperature.

Timing is less critical. If diff erent dishes are n- ishing at diff erent times, food that has reached serving temperature can wait, since it stays at serving temperature in the cooking medium.

Food Safety Because sous vide cooks at relatively low tempera- tures, safe food handling is especially important.:

Always keep raw food in safe conditions before you start cooking.

Clean the raw food before you start cooking.

Use Table 1, Recommended Sous Vide Cook Settings, to nd the recommended cooking time and temperature for the food.

Only use temperatures below 140F (60C) to cook foods that can be safely eaten raw.

Food should be between 34F and 37F (nor- mal refrigerator temperatures) when preparing to place food in sous vide vacuum pouch.

Sous vide dishes are best served immediately after cooking. If food is not served immediately, use an ice bath to chill it quickly and then keep it refrigerated for up to 3 days.

Do not use sous vide to reheat leftovers.

Do not allow raw food to contact cooked food during preparation. Do not use the same tools on diff erent food items without washing them.

If the recipe includes raw eggs, keep the whites and yolks from touching the outsides of the shells.

Blanching in boiling water or searing in a pan before sous vide cooking can destroy surface bacteria to improve food safety.

Do not use Delay Start with the Sous Vide func- tion.

Do not use a meat probe with the Sous Vide function. Food needs to be sealed air-tight in a pouch for sous vide cooking.

29SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Vacuum Sealing Sous vide cooking in your oven requires a vacuum sealer and vacuum pouches. The pouch needs to be sealed so no air or liquid can leak out. A pouch that leaks will produce poor cooking results and may produce smoke and residue that can burn during future cooking or when using self-clean. Follow the instructions that come with your sealer and pouches.

Use pouches that are speci ed for your sealer and for sous vide cooking.

Do not reuse vacuum pouches.

Put food in one layer in the pouch for even cooking.

It is recommended to use one food portion per vacuum pouch.

For most sous vide cooking, use the highest vacuum setting for best cooking results.

Make sure that the closure of the pouch is clean to get a good seal. If cooking at higher tem- peratures (above 160 F / 71 C), double-seal the pouch.

Vacuum pouches are solely for sous vide cook- ing and should not be used for regular baking or broiling.

Sous Vide Cooking 1. Prepare Start with the freshest, highest quality food

possible.

Clean and cut the ingredients. 2. Package Place the ingredients in the plastic pouch for

your vacuum sealer. Add seasonings for cook- ing.

Note: If cooking multiple items at once, you may want to write the contents on the outside of the pouches before lling and sealing them.

Vacuum seal the pouch, removing as much air as possible. Verify that you have achieved an air-tight seal.

If not cooking immediately, store the pouch in a refrigerator until ready to cook.

To cook Air Sous Vide:

1. Touch Oven Modes and scroll to Slow Cook, then choose Air Sous Vide from the sub-menu.

2. Touch Air Sous Vide: display shows 130F (54C) setting as default.

IMPORTANT The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, Rare fresh beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only 140F (60C) means some food poisoning organisms may survive. (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide, USDA) The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145F (63C) for medium rare fresh beef. For beef medi- um 160F, well done 170F (77C). Visit the USDA Food Safety and Inspection website at www.fsis. usda.gov.

CAUTION Even though sous vide cooks at relatively low temperatures, use care when handling the pouch and its contents, which will be hot to the touch.

Only use temperatures below 140F (60C) for cooking foods that can be safely eaten raw.

3. Set desired temperature.

4. Touch START.

IMPORTANT: Since sous vide cooking allows for a suggested minimum cooking time and a target time, it is recommended to set the timer to at least the minimum time or to any time up to the target suggested time. With sous vide cooking there is a maximum cooking time which allows the user more exibility when cooking with no speci c end time.

Note: Use the sous vide feature of your oven to cook the food (section reference). Use the settings recommended for the type of food in Table 1, Recommended Sous Vide Cook Set- tings,.

5. Finish Open the plastic pouch and remove the food.

You may nish the food with a nal searing or grilling to achieve a nice crust and roast avor.

Add nal seasonings or sauces if needed.

Serve.

Dehydrate For best results when dehydrating food use the Air Fry tray which allows air to circulate all around the food for faster preservation.

Tips Always use clean equipment and utensils. Keep meat and poultry refrigerated -- 40F

(4C) or slightly below -- before dehydrating. Cut food in evenly sized pieces. Slices should

be even and to inch thick. This will ensure all pieces are dehydrated at same time.

Use good quality fruits, vegetables, and meats. Overripe or bruised fruits and vegetables may turn black while dehydrating.

Use lean cuts of meat or trim off excess fat. Use a paper towel to dry meat before dehydrat-

ing. Store dehydrated foods in airtight containers.

If moisture appears in containers, the food was not dehydrated properly.

Follow USDA recommendation when dehydrat- ing.

To set Dehydrate: 1. Arrange food in a single layer on the Air Fry

* The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, Rare fresh beef is popular, but you should know that cook- ing it to only 140F (60C) means some food poisoning organisms may survive. (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide) The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145F (63C) for medi- um rare fresh beef. For well done 170F (77C)** Stuff ed turkey requires additional roasting time. Shield legs and breast with foil to prevent over browning and drying of the skin.

Convection Roasting tips: Preheating for convection roast is not necessary for most meats and poultry.

Arrange oven racks so meat and poultry are on rack position 2. Large cuts of meat should go on the lowest rack position.

Since convection roast cooks faster, may be able to reduce cook times as much as 25% from the rec- ommended time of your recipe (check the food at this time). Then if needed, increase cook time until the desired doneness is obtained.

Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will prevent the meat from browning properly.

When cooking meats use the broiler pan and insert. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert helps prevent grease splatters.

34 SETTING OVEN CONTROLS Setting Broil Use the broil function to cook foods that require direct exposure to radiant heat for optimum browning results. Broiling may produce smoke. If smoke is excessive, place food further away from the heating element.

The broil feature preset to 550F. Broil may be set at any temperature between 400F (205C) and 550F (288C).

CAUTION Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven racks, and cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns.

WARNING Should an oven re occur, close the oven door and turn the oven off . If the re continues, use a re extinguisher. Do not put water or our on the re. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a grease re to spread and cause personal injury.

IMPORTANT Broiler pans and inserts allow the grease to drain away from the high heat of the broiler. Do not use the pan without the insert. Do not cover the insert with foil the exposed grease could ignite.

To set broil with the default broil oven tempera- ture of 550F (288C): 1. Arrange the oven racks when cool. For opti-

mum browning results, preheat oven for 2 min- utes before adding food.

2. Select Oven Mode and scroll to Broil.

3. Default 550 appears.

4. If lower broil temperature is needed use keypad to select between 400 and 550.

5. Press START. Broil with oven door closed.

6. Broil on one side until food is browned; turn and broil other side until done to your satisfac- tion.

7. When nished broiling, press ON/OFF.

Self Clean A self cleaning oven cleans itself with high tem- peratures (well above normal cooking tempera- tures), which vaporizes soils or reduces them to a ne powdered ash you can wipe away afterwards with a damp cloth. This function can be pro- grammed for clean times between 2 and 4 hours.

Important: Before starting self clean read all fol- lowing caution and important statements before starting a self clean cycle.

Figure 7: Clean around the oven door gasket

Important notes: Completely remove all oven racks and any ac-

cessories from oven cavity to avoid damage to oven racks. If the oven racks are not removed they may discolor.

Remove all items from the oven and cooktop including cookware, utensils, and any aluminum foil. Aluminum foil will not withstand high tem- peratures from a self clean cycle and will melt.

Do not spray oven cleaners or oven protec- tive coatings in or around any part of the oven interior. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket, and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom (page 40). These areas heat suffi - ciently to burn soil on. Clean using soap and water prior to starting Self Clean.

Remove any excessive spills. Any spills on the oven bottom should be wiped up and removed before starting a self clean cycle. To clean use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spills can cause heavy smoke or re when subjected to high temperatures.

Do not allow food spills with high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, or pie llings) to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.

Do not clean the oven door gasket. The woven material in the gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, dam- age, or remove the oven door gasket. Doing so could cause damage to the door gasket and compromise the performance of the oven.

The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an open window, ventilation fan, or exhaust hood during the rst self clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal odors.

Do not attempt to open the oven door when the OVEN LOCK indicator light is ashing. Allow about 15 seconds for the motorized door latch mechanism to completely lock or unlock the oven door.

When the clean time nishes, the oven door will remain locked until the range has cooled suf- ciently. In addition to the clean time that was programmed, you must allow about 1 additional hour for the oven to cool before you will be able to open the oven door.

CAUTION Do not leave small children unattended near

appliance. During self clean cycle, the outside of the oven can become very hot and cause burns if touched.

Do not line the oven walls, racks, oven bot- tom, or any part of the range with aluminum foil. This will cause permanent damage to the oven interior and destroy heat distribution, and will melt to the oven interior.

Do not force the oven door open. This will damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening the oven door after the self clean cycle ends. The oven may still be very hot and cause burns. To avoid possible burns, stand to side of oven when opening door to allow steam or hot air to escape.

The health of some birds is extremely sensi- tive to fumes given off during the self clean cycle of any range. Move birds to a well venti- lated room.

41SETTING OVEN CONTROLS To set a self clean cycle: 1. Be sure the oven is empty and all oven racks

are removed. Remove all items from the oven. Be sure oven door is completely closed.

2. Touch Oven Modes and scroll to Self Clean.

3. Touch Self Clean and select 2 hour, 3 hour, or 4 hour clean time.

4. Press TIMER to start the self clean cycle.

When the oven is set to run a self-clean cycle, the motor door lock will begin locking the oven door. Do not open the oven door while the lock motor is running or when any locking indicators or displays are showing. The oven door is com- pletely locked in about 15 seconds. Once the oven door has locked, CLEAN will appear in the display indicating self clean has started.

Do not force the oven door open when self- clean is active. This can damage the automatic door-locking system. Use caution when open- ing the door after self-clean cycle is complete; the oven may still be very hot.

When the self clean cycle has completed: 1. CLEAN message will turn off , and Hot will

appear in display window. The oven door will remain locked while the oven cools.

2. Once the oven has cooled down (about 1 hour) and Hot is no longer displayed, the oven door may be opened.

3. When the oven interior has completely cooled, wipe away any residue or powdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel.

43SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Steam Clean The Steam Clean feature off ers a chemical free and time saving method to assist in the routine clean- ing of small and light soils. For heavier baked on soils use the Self Clean feature.

Figure 8: Add 1 cups of tap water

Be sure the oven is level and cool before starting Steam Clean. If the oven temperature is above room temperature a triple beep will be heard and the function will not start. Steam Clean produces best results when started with a cool oven.

To set a Steam Clean cycle: 1. Remove all racks and oven accessories.

2. Scrape or wipe loose debris and grease from the oven bottom.

3. Pour 1 cup of tap water onto the oven bottom. Close oven door.

Notes: Opening the oven door during the steam clean

cycle prevents the water from reaching the temperature needed to clean.

For best results, clean oven immediately after the cycle is complete. Steam clean works best for soils on the oven bottom.

A non-abrasive scouring pad, stainless steel sponge, plastic scraper, or eraser style cleaning pad (without cleaner) can be used for diffi cult soils. Moisten pads with water before use.

Place a paper towel or cloth in front of the oven to capture any water that may spill while wiping out.

Do not leave the residual water in the oven for any length of time.

Some condensation or water vapor may appear close to the oven vent and the oven door glass. This is normal. The oven gasket may become damp; do not wipe dry.

Local water sources often contain minerals (hard water). If hard water deposits occur, wipe cavity with a 50/50 solution of water and vine- gar or 50/50 solution of lemon juice and water.

Steam clean cannot be programmed with a delayed start time.

If Steam Clean results are not satisfactory, run a Self Clean. See Self Clean on page 40.

44 SETTING OVEN CONTROLS Cooking with Food Probe Use the probe feature for best results when cook- ing foods such as roasts, hams, or poultry.

The Food Probe works with the following oven modes: Bake, Convection Bake, Air Fry, Convection Roast, Steam Roast, and Turkey.

The probe feature, when set correctly, will signal an alert when the internal food temperature reaches the desired set target temperature. The probe set- tings for how the oven behaves should be set rst in the oven menu.

When active, the probe displays the internal food temperature which is visible in the display during the cooking process. This eliminates any guesswork or the need to open the oven door to check the thermometer.

For meats like poultry and roasts, using a probe to check internal temperature is the safest method to ensure properly cooked food.

To set Food Probe: Touch Oven Modes, scroll to Food Probe and follow directions on the display.

Proper placement of probe in food.

Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside the center of the thickest part of meat or food. For best results, do not allow the probe temperature sensor to contact bone, fat, gristle, or the cook- ware.

For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center of lowest large muscle or joint.

For meat loaf or casseroles, insert the probe into center of food.

When cooking sh, insert meat probe just above the gill.

For whole poultry or turkey, fully insert the probe sensor into the thickest part of the breast.

CAUTION Do not use kitchen utensils to pull on the probe cable or handles. Always insert and remove the probe using the provided handles, as shown in and always use a pot holder to protect hands from possible burns.

Setting the Sabbath Feature for the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays (some models)

For further assistance, guidelines for proper usage, and a complete list of models with the Sabbath feature, please visit the web at www.star-k. org.

This appliance provides special set- tings for use when observing the Jewish Sabbath/Holidays. Sabbath mode disables all au- dible tones or visual display changes on the oven control. Bake is the only cooking feature available while in the Sabbath mode. Most oven controls are locked during Sabbath mode.

To start Sabbath Mode, rst select Sabbath from the settings menu. Next, select Delay (if desired), Bake temperature, and cook time (if desired) and set. Cooking will begin after any speci ed delay.

If cook time was set, once the time has elapsed, the cooking will end and the display will show Idle to indicate that the cook time has ended.

Important: The Sabbath mode will override the factory preset 12 hour energy saving mode, and the appliance will stay on until the cooking features are canceled. If cooking is canceled when the appli- ance is in the Sabbath mode, no audible or visual indicators will be available to verify the cancella- tion.

If the oven interior lights are needed, be sure to activate them prior to setting the Sabbath mode. Once the oven light is turned on and the Sabbath mode is active, the oven light will remain on until the Sabbath mode is turned off and the oven lights are turned off . The oven door will not activate the interior oven lights when the oven door is opened or closed.

It is recommended that any oven temperature modi cation made within an active Sabbath mode press the + or - key.

The temperature will increase or decrease with each press by 5F or 1C and the change will be accepted automatically.

Important: Do not attempt to activate any other oven

function except Bake while the Sabbath feature is active. When the Sabbath feature is active, only the + and - keys and OFF will function. ALL OTHER KEYS should not be used once the Sabbath feature is active.

You may change the oven temperature once baking has started. Use the + and - keys to raise or lower the oven temperature. Each press of an arrow key will raise or lower the temperature by 5F (1C).

Remember that the oven control will no longer provide audible tones or display any further changes when the Sabbath feature is active.

The oven will shut-off automatically after completing a bake time and therefore may only be used once during the Sabbath/Jewish Holidays.

WARNING Food poisoning hazard. Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness. Foods that can easily spoil such as milk, eggs, sh, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the refrigerator rst. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before cooking begins, and should be removed promptly when nished cooking.

48 BEFORE USING MICROWAVE

About Your Microwave Oven This Use and Care Manual is valuable: read it care- fully and always save it for reference.

A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it for microwave cooking principles, tech- niques, hints, and recipes.

NEVER use the microwave oven without the turn- table and support or turn the turntable over so that a large dish could be placed in the microwave oven. The turntable will turn both clockwise and counter- clockwise.

ALWAYS have food in the microwave oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy.

When using the microwave oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cy- cling on and off . It is normal for the exterior of the microwave oven to be warm to the touch when cooking or reheating.

Condensation is a normal part of microwave cook- ing. Room humidity and the moisture in food will in uence the amount of moisture that condenses in the microwave 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.

All microwave ovens are rated by using the IEC Test Procedure at 1200 watts. If using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before the minimum time setting elapses and add time accordingly.

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 diff erent electrical cir- cuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from the

microwave oven as feasible or check position and signal of receiving antenna.

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. Cov- ers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.

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.

Allowing food to stand in or out of the oven after cooking power stops can improve results. Standing time after defrosting or cooking al- lows the temperature to evenly spread through- out the food.

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 akes easily with a fork.

49BEFORE USING MICROWAVE

About Utensils and Coverings It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces already in your kitchen can be used suc- cessfully 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 (Pyroceram), such as Corning- ware

heat-resistant glass (Pyrex)

microwave-safe plastics

paper plates

microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porce- lain

browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheating time. Follow manufacturers direc- tions.)

These items can be used for short-time reheating

About Foods

CAUTION Some products such as whole eggs and

sealed containersfor example, closed jars will explode and should not be heated in this microwave oven. Such use of the microwave oven could result in injury.

Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven. Pres- sure will build up inside egg yolk and will cause it to burst, possibly resulting in injury.

Spontaneous boilingUnder certain special circumstances, liquids may start to boil during or shortly after removal from the microwave oven. To prevent burns from splashing liquid, we recommend the following: before remov- ing the container from the microwave oven, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for 30 to 40 seconds after the micro- wave oven has shut off . Do not boil liquids in narrow-necked containers such as soft drink bottles, wine asks, or especially nar- row-necked coff ee cups. Even if the container is opened, excessive steam can build up and cause it to burst or over ow.

Do not defrost frozen beverages in nar- row-necked bottles (especially carbonated beverages). Even if the container is opened, pressure can build up. This can cause the con- tainer to burst, possibly resulting in injury.

Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be careful when opening any containers of hot food, including popcorn bags, cooking pouches and boxes. To prevent possible inju- ry, direct steam away from hands and face.

IMPORTANT Operating the microwave with no food inside

for more than a minute or two may cause damage to the microwave oven and could start a re. It increases the heat around the magnetron and can shorten the life of the microwave oven.

Do not overcook potatoes. They could dehy- drate and catch re, causing damage to your microwave oven.

Do not pop popcorn in your microwave oven unless in a special microwave popcorn accesso- ry or unless you use popcorn labeled for use in microwave ovens.

Foods with unbroken outer skin -- such as potatoes, hot dogs, sausages, tomatoes, apples, chicken livers and other giblets, and egg yolks -- should be pierced to allow steam to escape during cooking.

Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even with the lid off . Make sure all infant food is thorough- ly cooked. Stir food to distribute the heat even- ly. Be careful to prevent scalding when warming formula or breast milk. The container may feel cooler than the milk really is. Always test the milk before feeding the baby.

Cook meat and poultry thoroughlymeat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 165F Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against food-borne illness.

50 BEFORE USING MICROWAVE

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.

of foods that have little fat or sugar in them:

wood, straw, wicker

DO NOT USE metal pans and bakeware

dishes with metallic trim

non-heat-resistant glass

non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)

recycled paper products

brown paper bags

food storage bags

metal twist-ties

styrofoam

Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for mi- crowaving, place the empty dish in the microwave oven and microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be used.

The following coverings are suitable for microwave use:

Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating and absorbing fat while cooking ba- con.

Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheat- ing.

Plastic wrap that is specially marked for micro- wave use can be used for cooking and reheat- ing. 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.

Included The microwave comes with one rack and one rotat- ing tray.

Additional Accessories There are many microwave accessories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before you pur- chase so that they meet your needs. A micro- wave-safe thermometer will assist you in determin- ing correct doneness and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures.

The manufacturer is not responsible for any dam- age to the microwave oven when accessories are used.

51BEFORE USING MICROWAVE

About Children and the Microwave Children below the age of 7 should use the micro- wave oven with a supervising person very near to them. Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervis- ing person should be in the same room.

At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the microwave oven door.

Children should be taught all safety precautions: use pot holders, remove coverings carefully, pay special attention to packages that crisp food be- cause they may be extra hot.

Dont 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.

About Food Safety Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States Department of Agricultures recom- mended temperatures.

To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a thick or dense area away from fat or bone. Never leave the thermometer in the food during cooking, unless it is approved for microwave oven use.

CAUTION ALWAYS use pot holders 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 far- thest edge of a dishs covering and carefully open popcorn and oven cooking bags away from the face.

Note:

Stay near the microwave oven while its in use and check cooking progress frequently so that there is no chance of overcooking food.

NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or other items.

Select, store, and handle food carefully to pre- serve its high quality and minimize the spread of food-borne bacteria.

Keep the waveguide cover clean. Food residue can cause arcing and/or res.

Use care when removing items from the micro- wave oven so the utensil, your clothes, or ac- cessories do not touch the safety door latches.

60 CARE AND CLEANING

Surface or Area Cleaning Recommendation Porcelain-enameled broiler pan and insert

Porcelain door liner

Porcelain body parts

Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth. Scrub gently with a soapy, non-abrasive scouring pad to remove most spots. Rinse with a 50/50 solution of clean water and ammonia. If necessary, cover diffi cult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or future heating could damage the porcelain. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie lling) to remain on porcelain surfaces. These spills may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.

Self-cleaning oven interior Before setting a self-clean cycle, clean soils from the oven frame, areas outside the oven door gasket, and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. See Self Clean on page 40.

Oven door Use mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water to clean the top, sides, and front of the oven door. Rinse well. Glass cleaner may be used on the outside glass of the door. Ce- ramic smoothtop cleaner or polish may be used on the interior door glass. Do not immerse the door in water. Do not spray or allow water or cleaners to enter the door vents. Do not use oven cleaners, clean- ing powders, or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of the oven door.

Do not clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven material which is essential for a good seal. Do not rub, dam- age, or remove this gasket.

Figure 11: Do not clean oven door gasket

61CARE AND CLEANING

General Cleaning Refer to the table at the beginning of this chapter for more information about cleaning speci c parts of the oven.

Figure 12: Broiler pan with insert

Cleaning Porcelain Enamel Oven The oven interior is porcelain on steel, it is safe to clean using oven cleaners.

To remove heavy soil:

1. Allow a dish of ammonia to sit in the oven over- night or for several hours with the oven door closed. Clean softened dirt spots using hot, soapy water. Rinse well with water and a clean cloth.

2. If soil remains, use a nonabrasive scouring pad or a nonabrasive cleaner. If necessary, use an oven cleaner following manufacturers instructions. Do not mix ammonia with other cleaners.

3. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. Clean with hot, soapy water. Rinse well using clean water and a cloth.

Broiler Pan Cleaning Tips

To prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler pan from the oven as soon as cooking is completed. Use oven mitts because the broiler pan is extremely hot. Pour o grease. Soak the pan in hot, soapy water.

Clean the broiler pan as soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soap- lled steel wool pads. Heavy scouring may scratch the grid.

Follow these cleaning precautions:

Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.

Wear rubber gloves when cleaning the appliance manually.

Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie lling) to remain on the surface as they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning. Remove spillovers and heavy soil- ing as soon as possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the e ort required for major cleaning later.

CAUTION Before manually cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all controls are turned o and the oven is cool. The oven may be hot and can cause burns.

Remove all racks and accessories from the oven before cleaning.

Ammonia must be rinsed before operating the oven. Provide adequate ventilation.

62 CARE AND CLEANING Aluminum Foil, Aluminum Utensils, and Oven Liners

WARNING Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack with materi- als such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air ow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, caus- ing a re hazard.

Protective linersDo not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. The high heat of the oven can melt these materials to the oven cavity and ruin the oven. These types of materials can also reduce the e ectiveness of the air circulation in the oven and produce poor baking results. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper in- stallation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or re.

Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other metals. Care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used.

Oven racks - Do not use aluminum foil to cover the oven racks. Using a liner in the oven restricts the heat and air ow needed to obtain the best possi- ble cooking results for any oven.

Replacing the Oven Light

CAUTION Be sure the oven is unplugged and all parts are cool before replacing the oven light.

The interior oven light is located at the rear of the oven cavity and is covered by a glass shield. The glass shield must be in place whenever the oven is in use.

To replace the oven interior light bulb:

1. Turn electrical power o at the main source or unplug the appliance.

2. Remove interior oven light shield by turning a quarter turn counter-clockwise.

3. Replace bulb with a new T-4 type Halogen 25 watt appliance bulb.

NOTE Wear a cotton glove or use a paper towel when in- stalling a new bulb. Do not touch the new bulb with your ngers when replacing. This will shorten the life of the bulb.

4. Replace glass oven light shield by rotating clock- wise.

5. Turn power back on again at the main source (or plug the appliance back in).

6. Be sure to reset the time of day on the clock.

Figure 13: Wall oven Halogen light

63CARE AND CLEANING Caring for Your Glide Racks

Caution: Handle oven racks only when they are cool. After cooking or after the fresh-clean cycle, racks will be very hot and can cause burns.

Important Notes:

Remove all oven racks, including ladder racks, before starting a clean cycle.

Do not use cooking oil, cooking spray, or other oil-based lubrication products on the glide rack extension tracks. Use only the graphite lubrication in this area. To order graphite lubrication, contact your installer, servicer or dealer.

It is important that the parts of the rack that contact the oven sides always have a light coating of vegetable oil. Apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the sides of the rack after every fresh-clean cycle and when the rack becomes diffi cult to reposition in the oven.

To lubricate the glide rack:

1. Remove the rack from the oven and place the rack on a large at surface covered with newspaper or scrap cloth. Fully extend the rack.

2. Wipe away debris and crumbs from the glide track using a cloth or sponge.

3. Shake graphite lubrication very well before ap- plying. Apply to loading guides, and rotation pin. Repeat on both sides of the glide rack.

4. Extend and return the glide rack several times along the tracks to distribute the lubrication.

5. Turn the rack upside down and apply graphite lubrication to the insides of the loading guides.

6. Extend and return the glide rack several times along the tracks to distribute the lubrication.

7. Apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the bottom of the V and the glide channels. Keeping the frame sides lightly lubricated allows the entire rack to slide easily when changing rack positions.

8. Replace rack in oven right-side up.

64 CARE AND CLEANING Removing and Replacing the Oven Door

Figure 14: Door hinge location

To remove the oven door:

1. Open oven door completely, horizontal with oor (Figure 14).
