Electrical Requirements  
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS  
For all cord connected appliances:  
WARNING  
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.  
Electrical Shock Hazard  
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.  
Do not remove ground prong.  
Do not use an adapter.  
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 microwave oven is properly grounded.  
Do not use an extension cord.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in  
death, fire, or electrical 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.  
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.  
Required:  
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS  
A 120 Volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15- or 20-amp electrical supply  
with a fuse or circuit breaker.  
This device complies with Part 18 of the FCC Rules.  
Recommended:  
A time-delay fuse or time-delay circuit breaker.  
A separate circuit serving only this appliance.

Sensor Cooking  
Oven Cavity Coating  
The oven has a durable, nonstick coating that resists soil buildup  
by making cleaning easier than in conventional microwave ovens.  
For cleaning information, see “General Cleaning” section.  
The microwave system features the 6th SENSE™ cooking  
system. A humidity sensor in the oven cavity detects moisture  
and humidity emitted from food as it heats. The sensor adjusts  
cooking times to various types and amounts of food. Sensor  
cooking takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.  
Microwave System – ACCUWAVE® Technology  
The microwave system delivers a constant stream of microwave  
power – true high, medium and low power.  
Grill Element  
Typically, microwave ovens operate on HIGH power only. For  
example, to achieve a 50% power level (“medium”) in a typical  
microwave oven, the oven operates 50% of the time at HIGH  
power and 50% of the time OFF.  
A
B
A. Halogen bulb  
B. Quartz bulb  
In contrast, ovens utilizing this microwave system deliver the  
selected power level continuously. This constant stream of  
microwave power helps to minimize overcooking of foods and  
messy food spatters.  
The oven uses a 1,000-watt halogen bulb with a 500-watt quartz  
bulb to serve as the grill element for various cooking functions.  
When the element is in use, the halogen bulb glows very brightly,  
while the glow of the quartz bulb is barely–if at all–visible. (See  
Troubleshooting” for quartz bulb testing.) The oven cavity and  
door will become hot. The use of oven mitts is recommended.

C. Cooking with convection  
The cooking animation appears during any cooking cycle,  
whether automatic or manual. The animation shows what type of  
cooking is taking place.  
The progress bar will also appear during oven preheating.  
OVEN USE  
A magnetron in the oven produces microwaves 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.  
Food Characteristics  
When microwave cooking, the amount, size and shape, starting  
temperature, composition and density of the food affect cooking  
results.  
Do not lean on or allow children to swing on the oven door.  
Do not operate oven when it is empty.  
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.  
The turntable must be in place and correct side up when  
oven is in use. Do not use if turntable is chipped or broken.  
See “Assistance or Service” section to reorder.  
Size and Shape  
Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in  
oven.  
Smaller pieces of food will cook more quickly than larger pieces,  
and uniformly shaped foods cook more evenly than irregularly  
shaped food.  
Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, paper, including  
brown paper bags and newspaper, should not be dried in  
oven.  
Starting Temperature  
Room temperature foods will heat faster than refrigerated foods,  
and refrigerated foods will heat faster than frozen foods.  
Do not use the oven for canning, sterilizing or deep frying.  
Paraffin wax will not melt in the oven because it does not  
absorb microwaves.  
Composition and Density  
Foods high in fat and sugar will reach a higher temperature, 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.  
Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing containers from  
oven.  
Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended  
cook time, potatoes should be slightly firm. Let potatoes  
stand for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.  
Do not cook or reheat whole eggs inside the shell. Steam  
buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst. Cover  
poached eggs and allow a standing time.

Cooking Guidelines  
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 transferred 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.  
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.  
MATERIAL  
RECOMMENDATIONS  
Aluminum Foil,  
Metal  
See “Aluminum Foil and Metal” section.  
Stirring and Turning  
Browning Dish  
Bottom must be at least 3/16" (5 mm)  
above the turntable. Follow manufacturer’s  
recommendations.  
Stirring and turning redistribute heat evenly to avoid overcooking  
the outer edges of food. Stir from outside to center. If possible,  
turn food over from bottom to top.  
Ceramic Glass,  
Glass  
Acceptable for use.  
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.  
China,  
Follow manufacturer’s recommendations.  
Earthenware  
Melamine  
Follow manufacturer’s recommendations.  
Piercing  
Paper: Towels,  
Dinnerware,  
Napkins  
Use nonrecycled and those approved by  
the manufacturer for microwave oven use.  
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.  
Plastic: Wraps,  
Bags, Covers,  
Dinnerware,  
Containers  
Use those approved by the manufacturer  
for microwave oven use.  
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.  
Pottery and Clay  
Styrofoam®†  
Follow manufacturer’s recommendations.  
Do not use in oven.  
Standing Time  
Silicone  
Bakeware  
Follow manufacturer’s recommendations.  
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.  
Straw, Wicker,  
Wooden  
Containers  
Do not use in oven.  
Acceptable for use.  
Wax Paper  
To Test Cookware or Dinnerware for Microwave Use:  
1. Place cookware or dinnerware in oven with 1 cup (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.

PROGRAMMED COOKING  
NOTES:  
Do not use metal cookware or utensils during combination  
Convection Cooking  
cooking.  
During convection cycles, the convection element heats the air in  
the oven cavity, and the convection fan circulates the hot air. The  
constantly moving air surrounds the food to heat the outer  
portion quickly.  
Meats may be roasted directly on the convection rack. Use  
the Sizzle Pan to catch drippings.  
Less tender cuts of beef can be roasted and tenderized using  
oven cooking bags.  
See “Food Type Chart” for automatic convection cycles (Bake or  
Roast).  
Check for doneness after the cycle has ended. If the food is  
not completely done, let it stand in the oven for a few minutes  
to finish cooking.  
Convection cooking may also be done manually. Use convection  
cooking for items such as pies, breads, cookies, cakes and pizza.  
See “Manual Cooking” section for instructions.  
During any automatic or manual combination cycle, no more  
than 30% microwave power is used.  
Manual convection cooking may be used to proof bread. See  
“Raising (Proofing) Bread” section for instructions.  
NOTES:  
Use the provided convection rack.  
Sensor Cooking  
Some automatic cycles are sensor cycles. See “Cook Method  
Chart.” No amounts need to be entered. A sensor in the oven  
detects humidity released from the food as it heats, and adjusts  
the cook time accordingly. The progress bar appears during  
sensing (see “Progress Bar” section).  
Do not cover the turntable or convection rack with foil, as it  
interferes with the circulation of hot air.  
Do not use light plastic containers, plastic wrap or paper  
products. All ovenproof cookware or metal utensils can be  
used in convection cooking. (Round pizza pans are excellent  
cooking utensils for many convection-only items.) Metal  
utensils cannot be used in microwave or combination  
cooking.  
Many sensor cycles require the covering of foods. The provided  
steamer vessel has a loose-fitting lid, which allows enough steam  
to escape to be detected by the sensor. When covering foods  
with plastic wrap, be sure to leave a large enough vent opening to  
allow the steam to escape. If the door is opened during a sensor  
cycle, sensing will stop and the program will be canceled.  
No special techniques are needed to adapt standard oven  
recipes to convection cooking, although some cooking times  
might need to be shortened, and some temperatures  
adjusted.  
NOTES:  
The oven should be plugged in for at least 2 minutes.  
This oven may be preheated in the same way that a standard  
oven is preheated. (Most recipes for baked goods call for  
preheating.)  
The oven cavity and the exterior of the cooking container  
should be dry.  
The room temperature should not exceed 95°F (35°C).  
For optimal performance, wait at least 30 minutes after  
convection cooking or grill cooking before sensor cooking.  
Combination Cooking  
Combination cooking uses microwaves in addition to the  
convection system to cook or roast foods more quickly than with  
convection alone.  
Combination cooking may also be done manually. Use  
combination cooking for items such as roasts, meat loaf,  
lasagna, casseroles and whole chicken. See “Time/Temp/Power  
Cooking” or “Convect Time/Temp” sections for instructions.

baking consecutive batches, such as cookies, as the oven would  
already be hot.  
Using Food Type  
The Food Type menu has 12 methods from which to choose.  
Doneness  
Frozen Food  
Poultry  
Casserole  
Breakfast Food  
Bread  
Doneness for food items may be adjusted for most automatic  
cycles. Before starting a cycle, touch “Doneness” on the touch  
screen, and adjust the doneness with “+” (more done) or “-” (less  
done) controls. The “+” control adds to, and the “-” control  
subtracts from the recommended default cook time.  
Vegetables  
Meat  
Beverage & Soup  
Dessert  
Fish/Seafood  
Grains (Pasta/Rice) Miscellaneous  
This menu allows you to choose what specific food item you  
want to cook, and then choose how you would like to cook it, if  
there is more than 1 cook method available. All cook methods  
and foods are available through this menu.  
The more done and less done settings in most foods for which  
doneness may be adjusted are equal. That is, the same amount  
of time may be added to or subtracted from the cycle. Some of  
the Meat and Poultry cycle have only the more done settings.  
See “Food Type Chart” in this manual, or review your Quick  
Reference Guide for all of the food items and programmed  
cycles.  
Quick Touch Menu  
The Quick Touch Menu is a shortcut to 11 common program  
cycles. Unlike the Most Used menu, this list of preset cycles

Brown Rice  
White Rice  
Poultry Breast Boneless  
Fish Steak  
Fried Eggs  
Nuts  
Boil & Simmer is a sensor function, and uses only microwaves to  
simmer your food.  
Sizzle Pan function uses microwaves, and sometimes the grill  
element. Microwaves quickly heat the pan, while the grill element  
browns (or crisps) the food from above.  
See “Cook Method Chart” for specific food items and amounts.  
Follow recommended water and food amounts that appear  
on the display.  
Some Sizzle Pan cycles are programmed to preheat the empty  
pan for 3 minutes before cooking begins. When the preheating  
cycle is complete, the oven will stop and prompt you to add the  
food to the Sizzle Pan. The oven may prompt you to turn over the  
food during the cycle.  
Use the provided steamer vessel base and lid, or a  
microwavable dish with a loose-fitting lid.  
Do not use plastic wrap as a cover during the Boil & Simmer  
cycle.  
See “Cook Method Chart” for specific food items and amounts.  
Do not remove the lid while the dish is still in the oven, as the  
rush of steam will disrupt the sensor readings.  
Oven cavity and door will become very hot during the Sizzle  
Pan cycle. The use of oven mitts is recommended.  
To Use: Touch “Cook Method” on Main Menu, then touch “More  
Choices,” and then “Boil & Simmer.” Follow screen prompts to  
make your selections, prepare your food for simmering, and start  
the cycle.  
The Sizzle Pan will become very hot. Use oven mitts to grasp  
and remove the pan from the oven. Do not place hot Sizzle  
Pan directly on heat-sensitive surfaces. Damage may occur.  
Use detachable handle when handling hot Sizzle Pan.  
Simmering Pasta  
Do not use plastic utensils on the Sizzle Pan, as it becomes  
very hot quickly and could melt the utensils.  
The water will need to boil before adding the pasta. Place the  
dish of water, covered, in the oven and begin the cycle. When the  
water boils, the oven will stop and prompt you to add the pasta. If  
manually simmering, place the covered dish of water in the oven,  
and set a simmer time of 1 second. The water will start to boil,  
the 1-second simmer time will end, and the oven will stop.  
Do not use metal utensils, as they can scratch the pan.  
Do not use the Sizzle Pan in any other microwave oven or in a  
standard thermal oven.  
Do not place the Sizzle Pan on the grill rack or the convection  
rack. Always use the turntable as a support for the pan.  
Using oven mitts, gently remove the covered dish of boiling  
water, add the pasta, recover, place the dish back in the oven and  
continue the cycle.  
For best results, coat the Sizzle Pan lightly with cooking oil to  
make removing food and cleaning the pan easier.  
Simmering Rice  
When the grill element is in use, the cooling fan turns on and  
stays on for up to 10 minutes after the cycle is over.  
Place food and water/liquid, covered, in the oven and begin the  
cycle. The sensor determines when the water starts to boil, and  
figures the simmer time, which will begin counting down in the  
display.  
To Use: Touch “Cook Method” on Main Menu, then touch “More  
Choices,” and then “Sizzle Pan.” Follow screen prompts to make  
your selections, prepare the food and/or Sizzle Pan for cooking,  
and start the cycle.

OVEN CARE  
General Cleaning  
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the oven is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning products.  
Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first unless otherwise noted.  
GREASE FILTERS  
OVEN DOOR AND EXTERIOR  
Do not use ammonia or corrosive cleaning agents such as lye-  
based oven cleaners.  
The area where the oven door and frame touch when closed  
should be kept clean.  
Hot water and mild detergent:  
Mild, nonabrasive soaps and detergents:  
Soak filters, then scrub and swish to remove embedded dirt  
and grease. Rinse well and shake to dry.  
Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.  
Glass cleaner and paper towels or nonabrasive plastic  
scrubbing pad:  
Dishwasher:  
Wash separately, not with dirty dishes, because food can be  
trapped in the filters.  
Apply glass cleaner to towel, not directly to surface.  
Stainless Steel (on some models)  
Do not use soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, steel-  
wool pads, gritty washcloths or some paper towels. Damage may  
occur.  
OVEN CAVITY  
The gray finish inside the oven cavity is a durable, nonstick  
coating that makes soils easier to remove.  
Rub in direction of grain to avoid damaging.  
Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish (not included):  
See “Assistance or Service” section to order.  
Liquid detergent or all-purpose cleaner:  
Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.  
Vinegar for hard water spots  
Do not use metal or sharp utensils or scrapers, soap-filled  
scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads, gritty  
washcloths or some recycled paper towels. Damage may occur.  
The area where the oven door and frame touch when closed  
should be kept clean.  
Average soil  
Mild, nonabrasive soaps and detergents:  
STEAMER VESSEL  
Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.  
Heavy soil  
Mild, nonabrasive soaps and detergents:  
Soft brush, if necessary, to clean holes.  
Dishwasher  
Heat 1 cup (250 mL) of water for 2 to 5 minutes in oven.  
Steam will soften soil. Rinse with clean water and dry with  
soft, lint-free cloth.  
Stubborn Stains  
To remove stains such as tomato sauce, use a nonabrasive  
cleanser, a no-scratch pad, or a solution of dishwasher detergent  
and water (1/4 cup [60 mL] detergent to 1 cup [250 mL] warm  
water).  
Odors  
Lemon juice or vinegar:  
Heat 1 cup (250 mL) of water with 1 tbs (15 mL) of either  
lemon juice or vinegar for 2 to 5 minutes in oven.  
TURNTABLE  
Microwave Inlet Cover  
Replace turntable immediately after cleaning. Do not operate the  
microwave oven without the turntable in place.

100% cooking power. If water does not heat, call for service.  
See “Assistance or Service” section.  
Fan running during cooktop usage  
Oven door looks wavy  
This is normal. The oven’s cooling fan, which is separate from  
the vent fan, automatically comes on during oven operation  
to cool the oven. It may also automatically come on and cycle  
on and off to cool the oven’s controls while the cooktop  
below is being used.  
This is normal and will not affect performance.  
Turntable will not operate  
Has tape been removed from turntable hub?  
Cooking times seem too long  
Remove tape. See “Turntable” section.

Make sure these areas are clean.  
Place 2 slices of bread on the tall grill rack, place the rack on  
the turntable and close the door. Program the oven using  
Manual Grill–without microwaves–for 4 minutes (see “Time/  
Temp/Power Cooking” section). The bread should toast dark  
brown. If the bread does not toast, call for service. See  
“Assistance or Service” section.  
Is the cordless phone frequency 2.4 GHz?
