Important Safety Instructions
UNPACKING AND EXAMINING YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
Open the bottom of the carton, bend the carton flaps back and tilt the microwave oven
over to rest on plastic foam pad. Lift carton off microwave oven and remove all packing
materials, Wall Template and Top Cabinet Template, Installation Instruction, Turntable
and Turntable Support. SAVE THE CARTON AS IT MAY MAKE INSTALLATION
EASIER.
• Remove the feature sticker from the outside of the door, if there is one.
• DO NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER, which is located on the right side wall of
the microwave oven cavity. Check to see that there are Installation Instruction, Wall
Template and Top Cabinet Template. Read enclosures and SAVE the Use and Care
Manual.
Check the microwave oven for any damage, such as misaligned or bent door, damaged
door seals and sealing surfaces, broken or loose door hinges and latches and dents
inside the cavity or on the door. If there is any damage, do not operate the microwave
oven and contact your dealer or ELECTROLUX SERVICER. See Installation Instructions
for more details.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. This microwave oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be
plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and
ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric
current.
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Electrical Requirements
Check Installation Instructions for proper location for the power supply.
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp. or more protected electri-
cal supply. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the microwave oven be
provided.
The microwave oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a
wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUM-
STANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PIN FROM THE PLUG.
NOTES:
1. If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a
qualified electrician or service person.
2. Neither Electrolux nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the microwave
oven or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the correct electrical
connection procedures.
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 different
electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from the microwave oven as feasible or check position and signal of receiving

Important Safety Instructions
ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
ABOUT FOODS
This Use and Care Manual is valuable: read it carefully and always
save it for reference.
• Do not pop popcorn in your microwave oven unless in a special
microwave popcorn accessory or unless you use popcorn labeled
for use in microwave ovens.
A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it for
microwave cooking principles, techniques, hints and recipes.
• Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers—for
example, closed jars—will explode and should not be heated in
this microwave oven. Such use of the microwave oven could
result in injury.
NEVER use the microwave oven without the turntable and support
nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could be placed in
the microwave oven. The turntable will turn both clockwise and
counterclockwise.
• Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven. Pressure will build up
inside egg yolk and will cause it to burst, possibly resulting in
injury.
ALWAYS have food in the microwave oven when it is on to absorb
the microwave energy.
• 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 fire. It increases the heat around the magnetron and
can shorten the life of the microwave oven.
When using the microwave oven at power levels below 100%, you
may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal for the
exterior of the microwave oven to be warm to the touch when
cooking or reheating.
• 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.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room
humidity and the moisture in food will influence 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.
• Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even with the lid off. Make
sure all infant food is thoroughly cooked. Stir food to distribute
the heat evenly. 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.
The microwave oven is for food preparation only. It should not be
used to dry clothes or newspapers.
Your microwave oven is rated 950 watts by using the IEC Test
Procedure. In using recipes or package directions, check food a
minute or two before the minimum time and add time accordingly.
• Spontaneous boiling—Under 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 removing the container from the microwave oven,
allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for 30 to 40
seconds after the microwave oven has shut off. Do not boil liquids
in narrownecked containers such as soft drink bottles, wine flasks
and especially narrow necked coffee cups. Even if the container is
opened, excessive steam can build up and cause it to burst or
overflow.
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. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
• Do not defrost frozen beverages in narrow-necked bottles
(especially carbonated beverages). Even if the container is
opened, pressure can build up. This can cause the container to
burst, possibly resulting in injury.
• Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of
meat or poultry to prevent overcooking before dense, thick areas
are cooked thoroughly.
• 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 injury, direct steam
away from hands and face.
• 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.
• Do not overcook potatoes. They could dehydrate and catch fire,
causing damage to your microwave oven.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both
from top to bottom and from the center of the dish to the outside.
• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an
INTERNAL temperature of 160˚F and poultry to at least an
INTERNAL temperature of 180˚F. Cooking to these temperatures
usually protects against foodborne illness.
• Add standing time. Remove food from microwave oven and stir, if
possible. Cover for standing time which allows the food to finish
cooking without overcooking.
• 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 flakes easily with a fork.

Important Safety Instructions
determining correct doneness and assure you that foods have
been cooked to safe temperatures. Electrolux is not responsible
for any damage to the microwave oven when accessories are used.
ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces already in
your kitchen can be used successfully in your new microwave oven.
Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls during
cooking.
ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE
Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave oven with
a supervising person very near to them. Between the ages of 7
and 12, the supervising person should be in the same room.
Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and
reheating:
• glass ceramic (Pyroceram®), such as Corningware®.
• heat-resistant glass (Pyrex®)
As with any appliance, close supervision by an adult is
necessary when used by children.
At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the
microwave oven door.
• microwave-safe plastics
• paper plates
Children should be taught all safety precautions: use potholders,
remove coverings carefully, pay special attention to packages
that crisp food because they may be extra hot.
• microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain
• browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheating time.
Follow manufacturer's directions.)
Don’t assume that because a child has mastered one cooking
skill he/she can cook everything.
These items can be used for short time reheating
of foods that have little fat or sugar in them:
• wood, straw, wicker
Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not a toy. See
page 12 for Child Lock feature.
ABOUT SAFETY
• Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States
Department of Agriculture's recommended temperatures.
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
160˚F - For fresh pork, ground meat, boneless white poultry,
fish, seafood, egg dishes and frozen prepared food.
165˚F - For leftover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated, and deli and
carry-out “fresh” food.
• food storage bags
• metal twist-ties
170˚F - White meat of poultry.
175˚F - Dark meat of poultry.
Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, 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.
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.
The following coverings are ideal:
• Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating and
absorbing fat while cooking bacon.
• ALWAYS use potholders 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.
• Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.
• Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave use can be
used for cooking and reheating. DO NOT allow plastic wrap to
touch food. Vent so steam can escape.
• Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face and
hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge of a dish's covering and carefully
open popcorn and oven cooking bags away from the face.
• Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice because heat is
kept near the food to hasten cooking.
• Stay near the microwave oven while it's in use and check
cooking progress frequently so that there is no chance of
overcooking food.
• 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.
• NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or other items.
How to use aluminum foil in your microwave oven:
• Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on the food can be
used to shield areas that are either defrosting or cooking too quickly.
• Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve its high
quality and minimize the spread of foodborne bacteria.
• Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can cause arcing
and/or fires.
• Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface of the
microwave oven.
• Use care when removing items from the microwave oven so
that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not touch the
safety door latches.
Should you have questions about utensils or coverings, check a
good microwave cookbook or follow recipe suggestions.
ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories available
for purchase. Evaluate carefully before you purchase so that they
meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in

Cleaning and Care
EXTERIOR
TURNTABLE/TURNTABLE SUPPORT
The outside surface is precoated steel and plastic. Clean the
outside with mild soap and water; rinse and dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use any type of household or abrasive cleaner.
The turntable and turntable support can be removed for easy
cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy water; for stubborn stains use
a mild cleanser and non-abrasive scouring sponge. They are also
dishwasher-proof. Use upper rack of dishwasher. The turntable
motor shaft is not sealed, so excess water or spills should be
wiped up immediately.
DOOR
Wipe the window on both sides with a damp cloth to remove any
spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped
frequently with a damp cloth.
CHARCOAL FILTER
Charcoal Filter, which was enclosed with your microwave oven, is
used for nonvented, recirculated installation. The filter should be
changed every 6 to 12 months depending on use.
Cleaners which are marked specifically for use with stainless steel
may be used for stainless steel model. Follow package directions
exactly. Avoid the use of any harsh cleaner or one not marked for
stainless steel use as they may stain, streak or dull the door surface.
1. Disconnect power to the microwave oven at the circuit breaker
panel or by unplugging.
TOUCH CONTROL PANEL
2. Remove the three louver mounting screws and push down
carefully on the tab at each end of the louver to disengage. (See
illustration.)
Care should be taken in cleaning the touch control panel. If the
control panel becomes soiled, open the microwave oven door
before cleaning. Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened slightly
with water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use any sort
of chemical cleaners. Close door and touch Clear/Off.
3. Pull the louver away from the unit.
4. Change the charcoal filter.
5. Carefully push the louver back into place (engaging both the
bottom and top tabs) and replace the screws removed in step 2.
INTERIOR
Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the interior
surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting of spills or
spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth and
warm water. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS
OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use baking soda or a mild
soap; rinse thoroughly with hot water. The rack can be cleaned
with hot soapy water, rinsed and dried.

Cleaning and Care
GREASE FILTERS
Filters should be cleaned at least once a month. Never operate the
fan or microwave oven without the filters in place.
1. Pull down slightly on the tab toward the front of the microwave
oven and remove the filter. Repeat for the other filter.
2. Soak the filters in a sink or dish pan filled with hot water and
detergent. DO NOT use ammonia or other alkali; they will react
with the filter material and darken it.
3. Agitate and scrub with a brush to remove embedded dirt.
4. Rinse thoroughly and shake dry.
5. Replace by fitting the filter back into the opening.
