OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (cont’d)

(continued)

SETTING “SPEED DEFROST”:

A)Speed Defrost automatically sets microwave oven power for quickest thawing of small to medium size foods. Speed Defrost works in conjunction with the Timer, so you must know how much time to set. Speed Defrost thawing times are usually fast enough that you stay close to oven and can attend to the food as it is defrosting. Many foods benefit from being turned over, rearranged or broken apart (if separate pieces are frozen together). This attention makes defrosting faster and more even.

“How do I know whether to set Speed Defrost or Defrost byWeight?” This is determined by the type of food being defrosted and amount of attention that must be paid to the food. The automatic-coded Defrost by Weight requires only turn-over of the meat. Touch SPEED DEFROST pad. Word prompts ENTER DEF TIME shows on the display.

Enter desired Speed Defrost time by touching correct number pads. Digital timer sets minutes and seconds from left to right so a single digit can be set (5 for 5 seconds) or up to 4 digits (2405 for 24 minutes 5 seconds). ENTER DEF remains on the display. Touch START/STOP pad. DEF flashes on the display and defrost time begins counting down.

AFTER TIME HAS ELAPSED signal sounds and END appears in display. Touch RESET pad or open door to clear END before starting another cooking function.

B)To set “SPEED DEFROST”and one or two-stage cooking sequentially: After setting SPEED DEFROST, oven can be programmed to automatically switch to One or Two-Stage cook. This feature is useful for frozen, moist casseroles and similar foods which can be stirred while reconstituting. After defrosting, cook at 100% power level, then reduce to lower settings until bubbling hot. Stir occasionally to break up and redistribute heat.

THESE ARE NORMAL:

•Outside of oven may feel warm.

•Steam may escape from oven or moisture in oven may be seen after cooking.

•Change in interior light intensity, and change in blower sound when lower power setting are used.

•TV or radio interference (similar to interference experienced in other small appliances) may be noticed.

NONE OF THE ABOVE INDICATE A MALFUNCTIONING MICROWAVE.

INTERRUPT DEFROSTING (to stir food, turn it over, or provide other attention):

Either touch START/STOP pad or open the oven door. Unelapsed time will show on display; reclose the door and restart to continue. If no additional defrosting is required, touching RESET pad clears the display.

SETTING COOK BY WEIGHT: This feature is for roasting meats in the microwave. Its pre-set times and power levels give better results than microwaving at one power only, and it is easier to microwave meat with this setting than with cookbook instructions because you do not have to calculate “minutes per pound”cooking times. As soon as you enter the code (which tells the oven the type of meat) and the weight, the oven calculates cooking time. Meat must be defrosted and at refrigerated temperature to correspond with the pre-set times in this code. Meat-roast weights in about the 3 to 5 pound range microwave best, COOK BY WEIGHT code allows a setting lower than 3 lb. but no higher than 5 lb. Depending on the code, two beeps signal an error in setting a too-high weight. “Cook by Weight” programs the oven to stop after partial cooking, so meat won’t overcook on one side. Turn meat over, then touch START pad to continue cooking.

•Touch COOK BY WEIGHT pad- Word prompt shows ENTER CODE on display. Select desired code from 1 through 3. Door frame (open the door to review) and chart at right describe types of food for each code. Enter the one-digit code by touching the correct number pad.Check weight of meat. Weight must be in pounds and ounces. If label gives weight in pounds only, change the fraction of a pound to ounces using chart on page 11. Enter weight. Word prompt ENTER shows in display and 0’s show where LB and OZ should be entered. LB flashes until you enter pound(s) by touching correct number pad. When pound(s) has been entered, LB will stop flashing and OZ will flash. As soon as all these digits have been set, display will immediately show cook time.
