A magnetron in the microwave 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.
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not lean on or
allow children to swing on the microwave oven door.
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not operate
microwave oven when it is empty.
Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in
microwave oven.
Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, paper, including
brown paper bags and newspaper, should not be dried in
microwave oven.
Paraffin wax will not melt in the microwave oven because it
does not absorb microwaves.
Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing containers from
microwave oven.

Control Lock

The Control Lock shuts down the control panel pads to avoid
unintended use of the microwave oven.
When the control is locked, only the Vent Fan and Light pads will
function. If any other control pad is touched, "LOCKED" will
appear in the display and the invalid entry tones will sound.
To Lock/Unlock Control: The microwave oven must be in
standby mode. Touch and hold OFF CANCEL for 3 seconds until
2 tones sound and a padlock icon appears in the display. Repeat
to unlock and remove the padlock icon from display.

Vent Fan

The vent (exhaust) fan has 2 speeds: high and low.
If the temperature from the range or cooktop below the
microwave oven gets too hot, the vent fan will automatically turn
on at high speed. It may stay on for up to 1 hour to cool the
microwave oven. When this occurs, the vent fan cannot be turned
off. If the vent fan pad is touched during automatic fan operation,
"AUTO FAN IS ON, FAN SPEED WILL REMAIN ON UNTIL HEAT
IS NO LONGER SENSED" will scroll in the display as a reminder.
The vent fan is also the cooling fan, and will start at low speed
when any cooking function begins. It will remain on until the
cooking function ends.
To Turn Vent Fan On/Off: Touch VENT FAN pad once for high,
twice for low or 3 times for off.

Cooktop Light

The cooktop light has 3 settings: high, low and off.
To Turn Light On/Off: Touch LIGHT pad once for high, twice for
low or 3 times for off.
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, requiring
significant cleanup of microwave oven cavity. Cover poached
eggs and allow a standing time.

Food Characteristics

When microwave cooking, 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 needed.
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.
