PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE
EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE
ENERGY
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven withthe
door open since open-door operation can
result in harmful exposure to microwave
energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper
with the safety interlocks.
(b) Do not place any object between the oven
front face and the door or allow soil or
cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing
surfaces.
(c) Do not operate the oven ifit is damaged. It is
particularly important that the oven door close
properly and that there is no damage to the:
(1) Door (bent),
(2) Hinges and latches (broken or loosened),
(3) Door seals and sealing surfaces.
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired
by anyone except properly qualified service
personnel.
Electrical
requirements
Observe all governing codes and
ordinances. A 120 Volt, 60 Hz, AC only,
15 or 20 amp fused electrical supply is
required. (A time-delay fuse is recommended.)
It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this appliance be provided.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong
outlet. Do not remove ground
prong. Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these
instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
• For all cord connected appliances:
The microwave oven 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. The microwave oven 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 can result in a risk of electric
shock.
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 microwave oven.
• For a permanently connected appliance:
The microwave oven must be connected
to a grounded, metallic, permanent wiring
system, or an equipment grounding
conductor should be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the
equipment grounding terminal or lead on
the microwave oven.
Consult a qualified electrician or
serviceman if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the microwave oven
is properly grounded.

Gettin to Know Your
Microwave Oven
This section discusses the concepts behind microwave cooking. It also shows you the basics you need
to know to operate your microwave oven. Please read this information before you use your oven.
HOW YOUR CAPITALIZE KENMORE MICROWAVE HOOD
COMBINATION WORKS
Microwave energy is nothot. It causesfood to
make its own heat, and it's thisheat that cooks the
food.
Microwavesare likeTV waves, radio waves, or
lightwaves. You cannot see them, but you can see
what they do.
A magnetron in the microwave oven produces
microwaves. The microwaves move intothe oven
where they contact food as itturns on the turntable.
Magnetron
i p
Oven cavity
Metal floor Glass tray
The glass tray of your microwave oven lets
microwaves pass through. Then they bounce off a
metal floor, back through the glass tray,and
are absorbed by the food.
Microwaves pass throughmost glass, paper,and
plasticswithout heating them so food absorbs the
energy. Microwaves bounce off metal containers so
food does notabsorb the energy.
For the best cooking results
• Always cook food for the shortest cooking time
recommended. Check to see how the food is
cooking.
• Stir, turn over, or rearrange the food being
cooked about halfway through the cooking time
for all recipes. This will help make sure the food
is evenly cooked.
• If you do not have a cover for a dish, usewax
paper, or microwave-approved paper towels or
plastic wrap. Remember to turn back a corner of
the plastic wrap to vent steam during cooking.
Radio interference
Using your microwave oven may cause
interferenceto your radio,TV, or similar equipment.
When there isinterference, you can reduce itor
remove it by:
• Cleaning the door and sealingsurfaces ofthe
oven.
• Adjustingthe receivingantenna of theradioor
television.
• Moving the receiver away from the microwave
oven.
• Plugging the microwave oven intoa different
outlet so that the microwave oven and receiver
are on differentbranch circuits.
Testing your microwave oven
To test the oven put about 1 cup of coldwater in a Cook at 100% powerfor 1 minute.When the time is
glass container in the oven. Close thedoor and up,the water should be heated.
make sure it latches.

Testing your dinnerware or cookware
Test dinnerware or coolwvarebefore using. To
test a dish for safe use, putit into the ovenwith a
cup of water beside it. Cook at 100% cook power
for one minute.If the dish gets hot, do not use it.
Some dishes (melamine, some ceramic
dinnerware, etc.) absorb microwave energy,
becoming too hotto handle and slowing cooking
times. Cooking in metal containers not designedfor
microwave usecould damage the oven, as could
containerswith hidden metal (twist-ties,foil lining,
staples, metallic glaze or trim).
Operating safety precautions
• Never lean on the door or allow a child to swing
on itwhen thedoor is open.
• Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not heat
containers, butthe heat from the food can make
thecontainer hot.
• Do not use newspaper or other printed paper in
theoven.
• Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs,wood, paper,
gourds, or clothes in the oven.
• Do not start a microwave ovenwhen it isempty.
Product life may be shortened. If you practice
programming the oven, put a container ofwater in
theoven. It is normalfor the oven door to look
wavy after theoven has been running fora while.
• Do not try to melt paraffinwax in the oven.
Paraffinwax will not melt in a microwave oven
because it allows microwaves to pass through it.
• Do not operate the microwave oven unless the
glass turntable issecurely in placeand can move
freely.The turntable can move in eitherdirection.
Make sure the turntable iscorrect-side up in the
oven. Handle your turntable with care when
removing itfrom the oven toavoid possibly
breakingit. Ifyour turntable cracks or breaks,
contact your dealer fora replacement.
• When you use a browning dish, the browning
dish bottom mustbe at least3/16 inchabove the
turntable.Follow the directionssupplied with the
browningdish.
• Never cook or reheat a whole egg insidethe
shell. Steam buildup inwhole eggs may cause
them to burst,and possiblydamage the oven.
Slice hard-boiled eggs before heating. In rare
cases, poached eggs have been known to
explode. Cover poached eggsand allow a
standing time of one minute beforecutting into
them.
• For best results, stir any liquid several times
during heating or reheating. Liquidsheated in
certain containers(especially containersshaped
likecylinders) may become overheated.The liquid
may splash out with a loud noise during or after
heatingor when adding ingredients (coffee
granules, tea bags, etc.). This can harm you or
damage the oven.
• Microwaves may not reachthe center of a roast.
The heatspreads to thecenter from theouter,
cooked areasjust as in regular oven cooking. This
isone ofthe reasons for lettingsome foods (for
example, roastsor baked potatoes)stand for a
while after cooking, or for stirring some foods
during thecooking time.
• Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable
utensilsare notsuitableand it isdifficult to
maintain appropriatedeep-frying temperatures.
• Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the
recommended cooking time, potatoesshould be
slightly firm because they will continue cooking
during standing time.After microwaving, let
potatoesstand for 5 minutes. They will finish
cooking while standing.
Electrical connection
I If your electric power line or outlet voltage is
less than 110 volts, cooking times may be longer.

MICROWAVE COOKING TIPS
Amount of food
• Ifyou increase or decrease theamount of food
you prepare,the time ittakes to cook that food will
also change, For example, ifyou double a recipe,
add a little morethan half the originalcooking time,
Check fordoneness and, ifnecessary, add more
time in small increments.
Starting temperature of food
• The lowerthe temperature ofthefood beingput
intothe microwaveoven, the longer it takesto cook.
Food at roomtemperature will be re-heatedmore
quicklythan food at refrigeratortemperature.
Composition of food
• Food with a lot of fat and sugarwill be heated
fasterthan food containing a lotof water. Fat and
sugarwill also reach a higher temperature than
water in the cooking process.
• The more dense the food, the longer ittakes to
heat. "Very dense" food likemeat takeslonger to
heatthan lighter,more porous food likesponge
cakes.
Sizeandshape
• Smaller pieces of food willcook fasterthanlarger
pieces,Also, same-shaped pieces cook more
evenly than different-shaped pieces,
• With foods that have different thicknesses, the
thinner partswill cook faster than the thicker parts,
Place thethinner parts of chickenwings and legs in
the center ofthe dish,
Stirring, turning foods
• Stirring and turning foods spreads heat quicklyto
the center ofthe dish and avoids overcooking atthe
outeredges of the food,
Covering food
Cover food to:
• Reduce splattering
• Shorten cooking times
• Keep food moist
You can use any covering that lets microwavespass
through. See "Gettingto KnowYour Microwave
Oven" for materials thatmicrowaveswill pass
through, If you are using the Sensorfunction, be sure
to vent,

MICROWAVE COOKING TIPS (CONT.)
Using aluminum foil (cont.)
• Place the aluminum foil container in a glass bowl
and add some Water so that itcovers the bottom of
the container, butnot more than 1/4 in.(,64 cm)
deep, This ensures even heatingof the container
bottom,
•Always remove the container lidto avoid damage
to the oven.
•Use only undamaged containers.
•Do not use containers tallerthan 3_4in.(1.9 cm),
•Container must be at least halffilled.
•To avoid arcing, there must be a minimum 1/4in.
(,64 cm) between thealuminum container and the
walls of the oven and also between two aluminum
containers.
•Always place the container on the turntable,
•Shield parts offood that may cook quickly, such
as wing tips and legends of poultry,with small
pieces of aluminum foil."
•Heating food in aluminum foil containersusually
takes up to double the time compared to reheating
in plastic,glass, china, or paper containers.
The time when food is readywill vary depending
upon the type ofcontainer you use,
•Let food stand for 2 to 3 minutesafter heatingso
that heat is spread evenly throughout container.
Cooking you should notdo in your
microwaveoven
• Do not do canning of foods in theoven, Closed
glass jars may explode, resulting in damage to the
oveR.
• Do not use the microwave oven to sterilizeobjects
(baby bottles, etc,), It isdifficult to keep theoven at
the high temperature needed for sterilization,
Removing the rack
•When popping commercially packaged popcorn,
Remove the rack and drip pan from the oven;
Do notplace the bag of microwave popcorn on the
rack or under the rack.
CAUTION : Popping microwave popcornwith rack
and drip pan cancause fireordamage
to your microwave oven.

COOKING COMPARISON GUIDE
Cooking with your newoven offers a wide varietyof
food preparationoptions: microwave cooking,
convection cooking, and combination cooking.
Microwave cooking uses very short, high-frequency
radio waves. The movement of the microwaves
throughthe food generates heatand cooks most
foods faster than regular methods, while retainingtheir
naturaltexture and moisture. Microwave cooking
heats food directly, not thecookware or the interiorof
the oven. Reheating iseasy and defrosting is
particularlyconvenient because lesstime isspent in
food preparation.
Convection cooking constantly circulates heated air
around the food, creating even browning and sealed-
in flavor by the constant motion of hot air over the food
surfaces,
Combination cooking combines microwave energy
with convection to cook with speed and accuracy,
while browning and crisping to perfection,
You can use microwave cooking, convection cooking,
or combinationcooking tocook by time, Simply preset
the length of cooking time desired and your oven turns
off automatically,

between microwave,convection, and combination
cooking,

COOKWARE GUIDE
Microwave Cooking
Most heat-resistant, non-metalliccookware is safe for
use in your microwave oven,
However,to test cookware before using, follow these
steps:
1,Place theempty cookware in the microwave oven.
2. Measure 1 cup ofwater in a glass measuring cup
and placeit in the oven besidethe cookware,
3, Microwave on 100% power for 1minute. Ifthe dish
iswarm, itshould not be used for microwave
cooking,
Combination Cooking
•Glass or glass-ceramicbaking containers are
recommended, Be sure not touse items with metal
trim as it may cause arcing(sparking)with oven wall
or oven shelf, damaging thecookware, the shelf or
the oven.
• Heat-resistantplastic microwave cookware (safe to
450°F)may be used, but isnot recommended for
foods that requirecrusting or all-around browning,
because plasticis a poor conductor of heat,
Convection Cooking
• Metal Pans are recommended for all types of baked
products, butespeciallywhere browning or crusting
isimportant.
• Dark or dull finish metal pans are best for breads and
piesbecause they absorb heatand produce a
crisper crust.
• Shinyaluminum pans are better for cakes, cookies,
or muffins because these pans reflectheat and help
producea light,tender crust,
• Glass or glass-ceramic casserole or bakingdishes
are best suited for egg and cheese recipes due to
the cleanabilityof glass,
