To Lock/Unlock Control: The microwave oven and Timer must be off. Touch and hold START for 5 seconds until 2 tones sound and a lock icon appears on the display. Repeat to unlock and remove the lock icon from display.

Vent Fan

The vent fan has speeds ranging from 1 (LOW) to 5 (HIGH). The first time the Vent Fan is turned on after power is supplied to the microwave oven, it will start at speed level 1. Each time the fan is turned on, it will start at the speed level that was used last.

To protect the microwave oven, the vent fan will automatically turn on at the HIGH setting if the temperature from the range or cooktop below gets too hot. It may stay on for up to one hour to cool the microwave oven. When this occurs, the VENT FAN pads will not function.

To Turn On/Night/Off: Touch LIGHT ON-NIGHT-OFF repeatedly to cycle through settings.

Demo Mode

The Demo Mode is ideal for learning how to use the microwave oven. When set, functions can be entered without actually turning on the magnetron. The microwave oven light will come on, the fan will run and, if on, the turntable will rotate.

To Turn On/Off: The microwave oven and Timer must be off. Touch and hold TIMER for 5 seconds until 2 tones sound and “d” appears on the display. Repeat to turn off and remove “d” from the display.

MICROWAVE 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.

■Do not lean on or allow children to swing on the oven door.

■Do not operate microwave oven when it is empty.

■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.

■Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in the oven.

■Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, paper, including brown paper bags and newspaper should not be dried in the oven.

■Do not use the microwave oven for canning, sterilizing or deep frying. The oven cannot maintain appropriate temperatures.

■Paraffin wax will not melt in the oven because it does not absorb microwaves.

■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.
