Help Prompts

Help prompts are visible messages that appear on the upper oven display on combination oven models or the display on single oven models. Only Crisping and Broiling help prompts can be turned off.

Before turning help prompts on/off, the oven(s), Timer and, on combination oven models, the lower oven Timed Cooking must be off.

To Turn Off/On: Press and hold the number pad “2” for 5 seconds. A tone will sound and either “HELP OFF” or “HELP ON” will flash on the upper oven display on combination oven models or the display on single oven models for 3 seconds. Repeat for desired option.

Start

(lowerovenonly)

The START pad begins any lower oven function except the Timer. If not pressed within 5 seconds after pressing a pad, “START?” will appear on the lower oven display as a reminder. If not pressed within 4 minutes after pressing a pad, the oven display will return to inactive mode (blank) and the programmed function will be cancelled.

Lower OvenCancel

The LOWER OVEN CANCEL pad stops any lower oven function except for the Clock, Timer and Control Lock.

The cooling fan may continue to operate even after LOWER OVEN CANCEL is pressed depending on the oven temperature.

OvenTemperatureControl

IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven temperature because opening the oven door and element or burner cycling may give incorrect readings.

The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature calibration can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or Celsius.

A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount. No sign means the oven will be warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a guide.

2.Press BAKE to increase and BROIL/MAXI//ECONO to decrease the temperature in 5°F (3°C) amounts. The adjustment can be set between 35°F (21°C) and -35°F (-21°C).

3.Press START.

BEFORE USING

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.

■Never lean on or allow children to swing on the oven door.

■Do not operate microwave oven when it is empty.

■Heated liquids can splash out during and after heating. Use of a wooden stir stick placed in the cup or bowl during heating may help to avoid this.

■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 five minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.

Food Characteristics

When microwaving, the amount, size and shape, starting temperature, composition and density of the food affect cooking results.

Amount of Food

The more food heated at once the longer the cook time. Check for doneness and add small increments of time if necessary.

Size and Shape

Smaller pieces of food will cook more quickly than larger pieces and uniformly shaped foods cook more evenly than irregularly shaped food.

Starting Temperature

Room temperature foods will heat faster than refrigerated foods and refrigerated foods will heat faster than frozen foods.

Composition and Density

Foods high in fat and sugar will reach a higher temperature and heat faster than other foods. Heavy, dense foods, such as meat and potatoes, require a longer cook time than the same size of a light, porous food, such as cake.
