Your microwave oven is designed to make your cooking experience as enjoyable and productive as possible. To help get you up and running quickly, the following is a list of the oven’s basic features:

1.Door Handle.

2.Window with Metal Shield. Shield prevents microwaves from escaping. It is designed as a screen to allow you to view food as it cooks.

3.Glass Turntable. This turntable turns food as it cooks for more even cooking. It must be in the oven during operation for best cooking results.

4.Removable Turntable Support (under turntable).

5.Cook Guide Label.

6.Light. Automatically turns on when door is opened or when oven is operating.

7.Quartz Broil Element (hidden in ceiling). This element is used for the CRISP and BROIL functions. It is in a special com- puter-designed compartment that helps focus heat from the element onto the food. The quartz broil element is better than traditional broil elements because it gets hotter faster. And it is not in your way when you are cleaning the oven.

8.Microwave Oven Control Panel. Touch pads on this panel to perform all functions.

9.Door Safety Lock System. The oven will not operate unless the door is securely closed.

10.Lower Oven Control Panel. See “Lower Oven Use and Care Guide” for more information.

11.Convection Element and Fan (not visible). (Models KEMS378G, KEMS308G, KBMC147H and KBMC140H only.) This element and fan are used for the CONVECT function. See “Cooking with CONVECT in the microwave oven”.
