IMPORTANT SAfETY INSTRUCTIONS
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 electrical
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 CIRCUMSTANCES CUT
OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PIN FROM THE PLUG.
Extension Cord
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade
grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the microwave oven. The
marked rating of the extension cord should be AC 115-120 volt, 15 amp. or more.
Be careful not to drape the cord over the countertop or table where it can be pulled on by children
or tripped over accidentally.
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 antenna.

• 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.
aBoUT YoUR MICRoWaVE oVEN
This Use and Care Manual is valuable: read it carefully and always
save it for reference.
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
• 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.
the microwave energy.
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.
All microwave ovens are rated by using the IEC Test Procedure as
1200 watts, except for the CPLMZ209 which is 1100 watts. 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.
• Do not overcook potatoes. They could dehydrate and catch fire,
causing damage to your microwave oven.
• 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.
• 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.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both
from top to bottom and from the center of the dish to the outside.
• 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.

so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer
will assist you in 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.
Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and
reheating:
• glass ceramic (Pyroceram®), such as Corningware®.

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.
• 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:
• Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve its high
quality and minimize the spread of foodborne bacteria.
• 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.
• 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.

Cleaning and Care
EXTERIoR
INTERIoR
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.
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.
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. Cleaners which are marked
specifically for use with stainless steel may be used. 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.
WaVEGUIdE CoVER
The waveguide cover is located on the ceiling in the microwave
oven cavity. It is made from mica so requires special care. Keep
the waveguide cover clean to assure good microwave oven
performance. Carefully wipe with a damp cloth any food spatters
from the surface of the cover immediately after they occur. Built-up
splashes may overheat and cause smoke or possibly catch fire. DO
NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER.
EaSY CaRE™ STaINlESS STEEl (SoME ModElS)
Your microwave oven finish may be made with Easy Care™
Stainless Steel (some models). Clean the stainless with warm
soapy water using a clean sponge or cloth. Rinse with clean water
and dry with a soft clean cloth. DO NOT use ANY store bought
cleaners like Stainless Steel cleaners or any other types of cleaners
containing any abrasive, chlorides, chlorines or ammonia. It is
recommended to use mild dish soap and water or a 50/50 solution
of water and vinegar.
odoR REMoVal
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the microwave oven.
To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and juice of 1 lemon
and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass measuring cup. Boil for
several minutes using 100% power. Allow to set in microwave oven
until cool. Wipe interior with a soft cloth.
ToUCH CoNTRol PaNEl
TURNTaBlE/TURNTaBlE SUPPoRT
Care should be taken in cleaning the touch control panel. If the

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.
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.
