to time or location, many time
cooking recipes give you a time
range to prevent overcooking. Set

QuestmsdAnswers
Q When Ipress START, Ihear
8 dull thUXllp@ noise What is it?
A. This sound is normal. It is
letting you know the oven is using a
power level lower than 10(High).
Q. CanIdefkostsmall itemsin
a hurry?
A. Yes,but they will need more
frequent attention than usual. Raise
the power kwel after entering the
time by touching the desired power
level pad. Power level 7 cuts the
total defrosting time about in 1/2;
puwerlevel 10cutsthetotaldehXing
time to approximately 1/3. During
either, rotate or stir fd frequently.
Q Wqydon’tthedefmsting
times in the cookbook seem right
fw my fd?
A. Cookbook times are averages.
Defrosting time can vary according
to the temperature in your fkeezer.
Set your oven fix the time indicated
in your cookbook. If your fd is
still not completely thawed at the
end of that time, reset your oven
and adjust the time accordingly.
Q Shouidaliftibe
Compktely thawed before
cooking?
A. Some fds should not be
completely thawed before cooking.
For example, fish cooks so quickly
it is better to begin cooking while it
is still slightly tin.
Q Can Iopenthedoorduring
Time Defrost to check on the
P~ of my f~?
A. Ym. Youmay open the door at
any time during microwming. ‘Ib
resume defrosting, close the door
and press STA~. The oven begins
operating if time is left on timer.
If not, reset timer.
Cooking byTemperature
Internal temperature is the best
test of doneness for many fa.
Temp Cook/Hold takes the
guesswork out of cooking because
the oven automatically switches
to Hold setting after reaching
the preset food temperature and
maintains that temperature for up
to one hour or until you touch the
CLEAR/OFF pad.
The ‘lkmperature Probe
HA~OLE
CASLE
The temperature probe is a fti
thermometer that gauges the
internal temperature of your fd;
it must be used when using Temp
Cook/Hold or Auto Roast. To

Questionsand Answers
QAfter If~thesteps
and touched the ST~ pad,
“ERROR” flashed in the display
andasignal sounded. W@’s
Wrculg?
A. “ERROR” flashes if you set

and begin again.
Q Are there any f~ I can’t
‘IkmpCook?
A. Yes.Delicate butter icings, ice
cream, frozen whipped toppings,
etc. soften rapidly at warm
temperatures. Batters, doughs and
frozen foods are also difficult to
cook precisely with the probe. It’s
best to time cook these foods.
Q Why did “PRC)BE”flash on
the display after I touched the
SIART pad?
A. “PROBE” will flash if you
don’tseat the cable end of the probe
securely into the receptacle in the
oven wall or if you touch the TEMP
COOWHOLD pad and forget to
use the probe.
QCan Ileavemyprobeinthe
oven if it’snot inserted in fd?
A. No, if it touches the oven wall,
you may damage the oven.
Q Can I lkmp Cook different
portions offal at different
temperature?
A. Yes.The temperature probe
gives you the f%eedomto cook
different portions of food at
different temperatures to suit
individual eating styles. Simply
place probe in fti and change
temperature setting as needed.

Questions and Answers
Q. What will happen if I
accidentally reverse my defrost,
hold and cook instructions?
A. The oven will automatically
rearmnge your program. Defrosting
will always come first, then hold,
and then the cooking fbnction.
Q Can I defrost and hold only?
A. Yes.Sometimes you may only
want to defrost a food, hold it, and
cook it later. All you need to do is
program in Time Defrost and
amount of time. Then program a
holding time (example in steps 4
and 5 at left). Be sure to put the
thawed dish in the refrigerator
promptly.
N(YTE:Let fds remain at room
temperature only as long as safe.
Times will vary.
Q. I programmed my oven for
a specific defrosting time but it
defkmted longer than necessary.
what happened?
A. When instructions conflict,
the oven carries out the last
instruction. Youmay have set the
oven to Defrost for 4 minutes,
Hold/Time for 2 minutes, and then’
Defrostfbr6minutes. Inthiscase, the
oven would D@ost for 6 minutes
and Hold/Time for 2

HmvtoReheat SeveralDMkrentTjq?esofl!bodsZbgether
When heating several different
types of food together, foods which
should be served hot must be placed
on the oven shelf, while fbods
which are OIllywarmed should be
placed on the floor. This is because
micruwaveenergy enters the oven
from the top only. Also, it is
important to
remember that fbods
absorb microwave
enqy at
diflixent rates. Rates can be aflixtd
bythesizeofthe food, and its
starting temperature.
Because of the varying rates, you
mayneedtostartreheating alarge
or dense fbod a &wminutes ahead
of time, then add other smaller or
less dense foods. Alternately, if
oneofthefbods youareheating
seems undercooked but the others
am heated satisktorily, let the
underheated food continue cooking.
Heat or reheat different types of
fd at High (10).‘Ibdetermine
heating times, add times for all
fti together. (See heating guide
in cookbook.) Aller half of time,
stir or ~ M (do not
reverse positions). Check fbods (top
shelf especially) after 3/4 of total
time and remove any which are
done. Continue cooking others.
W frozen individual entrees

trays of fd from their boxes and
turn back one comer of the plastic
cover to vent. If there are any foil
covers, remove them and return the
trays of fd to their boxes. (Batter
fbods should be removed from the
trays and cooked conventionally.)
Place inuvenwith one TVdinneron
right shelf and the second dinner on
left floor. Micruwave at High (10)
for 7 minutes. Reverse positions
(top to bottom) and rotate foods 1/2
turn. Continue microwaving at
High (10)for 7 minutes. Check
dimers for heating. If one dinner
seems less done than desired,
return it to the box and continue
heating on shelf 1to 2 more minutes.
Place on shelf large or dense
foods which need the most heating,
such as leftoverfried chicken,
casseroles of canned or leftover
vegetables, rice or pasta. Place on
ovenfloor those foods which need
only be warmed, such as bakery
pies, rolls, muffins or breads.
