If you are not sure if a dish is  
microwave-safe, use this test:  
Place in the oven both the dish you  
are testing and a glass measuring  
cup filled with one cup water—set  
the measuring cup either in or next  
to the dish. Microwave 1 minute at  
high. If the dish heats, it should not  
be used for microwaving. If the dish  
remains cool and only the water in  
the cup heats, then the dish is  
microwave-safe.

specifically designed to heat or  
cook food, and is not intended  
for laboratory or industrial use.

Questions and Answers  
designed for speedy thawing of  
frozen food and is one of the great  
advantages of a microwave oven.  
Q. When I press START, I hear a  
dull, thumping 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).  
Use the Time Defrost setting to  
quickly thaw foods such as bread,  
rolls, vegetables, fruits and frozen  
dinners. The Auto Defrost setting  
is preferred for meat and poultry

Q. Why don’t the defrosting

for my food?  
Step 1: Place package of frozen

no metal.  
Defrosting  
A. Cookbook times are averages.  
Defrosting time can vary according  
to the temperature in your freezer.  
Set your oven for the time indicated  
in your cookbook. If your food is  
still not completely thawed at the  
end of that time, reset your oven  
and adjust the time accordingly.  
Foods frozen in paper or plastic  
can be defrosted in the package.  
Q. Should all foods be completely  
thawed before cooking?  
Step 2: Touch TIME DEFROST.  
A. Some foods should not be  
completely thawed before cooking.  
For example, fish cooks so  
it is better to begin cooking while it  
is still slightly frozen.  
For even defrosting, some foods

Q. Can I open the door during

A. Yes. You may open the door at  
any time during microwaving. To  
resume defrosting, close the door  
and press START. The oven begins  
operating if time is left on timer.  
If not, reset timer.

Questions and Answers  
Q. I set my oven for the time  
called for in the recipe, but at the  
end of the time allowed, my food  
wasn’t done. What happened?  
Step 1: Place food in oven in  
microwave-safe container and close  
the door.  
A. Since house power varies due  
to time or location, many time  
cooking recipes give you a time  
range to prevent overcooking. Set  
the oven for minimum time, test the  
food for doneness, and cook your  
food a little longer, if necessary.  
Step 1: Fill a cup 2/3 full of  
water, add 1 teaspoon of instant  
coffee and stir to dissolve. Use a  
cup that has no metal decoration  
and is microwave-safe (refer to  
Microwaving Tips on page 3).  
Place cup in oven and close door.  
Q. I touched the number pads  
and selected my power level. When  
I touched START, however, my  
oven didn’t come on. Why not?

Step 7: Touch the CLEAR/OFF

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.  
Step 8: Remove probe and food  
from the oven.

Automatic Roasting  
Auto Roast uses the temperature  
probe to cook to the desired  
serving temperature. Unlike  
Cook/Hold, which uses a  
single power level, Auto Roast  
uses up to 3 power settings which

Auto Defrost  
With the Auto Defrost feature,  
the oven automatically sets the  
defrosting times and power levels  
for you.  
When using the Auto Defrost  
feature, it is necessary to allow  
the food to stand in order to finish  
defrosting the interior. You may take  
the food out of the oven if you wish.  
Stand time recommendations are  
given in the guide on the next page.  
Use the Auto Defrost guide on the  
following page. Enter the food  
weight in pounds and tenths of a  
pound (see Conversion Guide at  
right). Then touch the START pad.  
3. Enter weight. For example, touch  
number pads 1 and 2 for a weight  
of 1.2 pounds (1 pound, 3 ounces;  
see Conversion Guide at right).  
The oven calculates defrosting time  
and changes power levels during  
defrosting to give even defrosting  
results.  
Conversion Guide  
If weight of food is stated in  
pounds and ounces, the ounces  
must be converted to tenths (.1)  
of a pound.  
How to Set Auto Defrost  
Pounds  
Before you begin, check the guide  
located at the front of the oven,  
visible when you open the door. It  
shows minimum and maximum  
food weights for a variety of foods.  
You will need to know your food’s  
weight before setting Auto Defrost.
