OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (cont’d)

SETTING COOKING TIME

& POWER LEVELS

A) Quick & Easy

When cooking at 100% power, simply set cooking time by touching number pads (ex. 3 minutes, touch 3-0-0)

and START. 100% power is automatically set. For 1-step cooking, you do not have to touch COOK pad before

setting time.

B) TO COOK AT LOWER POWER LEVELS

After setting cook time, touch POWER pad then single digit representing

the power level desired. Touch START pad. Since oven automatically

assumes 100% power, you must switch power level (when desired) after

setting cook time.

C) TWO-STAGE COOKING

Two-stage cooking function lets you cook food at two different power

levels with one time setting. For example, rice should be cooked in two

stages: Stage 1 starts rice at 100% power for 5 minutes, Stage 2 completes

cooking 10-12 minutes at 50% power level.

SET STAGE 1:

Assuming 100% power, just touch number pad as described in “Quick &

Easy” setting on page 8, for correct first stage time. Most 2 stage recipes

start with 100% power but you can also switch power levels after setting

cook time. DO NOT TOUCH START PAD.

SET STAGE 2:

Touch COOK pad then enter proper cooking time and (lower) power level.

Most 2 stage recipes use lower poer for second stage. Touch START pad.

First stage of cooking begins.

MEM: (memory) word prompt shows on the display during STAGE 1 cooking, indicating that the oven is

remembering stage 2 has been programmed. After stage 1 time elapses, signal may be heared, signaling the

beginning of stage 2.

AFTER TOTAL TIME HAS ELAPSED:

4 long beeps sound and END appears in display. Touch RESET pad or open oven door to clear END before

starting another cooking function.

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 settings are used. TV or radio

interference may be noticed. This does not indicate a problem.

USE THESE SINGLE DIGITS TO

REPRESENT POWER LEVELS:

Digit % of Power

9 90%

8 80%

7 70%

6 60%

5 50%

4 40%

3 30%

2 20%

1 10%

A) Speed Defrost automatically sets microwave oven power for quickest thawing of small to medium size

foods. Speed Defrost works in conjuction 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, rearraged, or broken apart. This attention makes

defrosting faster and more even.

“How do I know whether to set Speed Defrost or Speed by Weight?”

This is determined by the type of food being defrosted and the 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 (2400 for 24 minutes).ENTER

DEF remains on the display. Touch START/STOP pad. DEF flashes on the display and defrost time beings

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.
