MICROWAVE DRAWER USE

A magnetron in the microwave drawer produces microwaves which reect off the metal oor, 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 drawer, do not lean on or allow children to swing on the microwave drawer door. ■ To avoid damage to the microwave drawer, do not operate microwave drawer when it is empty. ■ Clothes, owers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, paper, including brown paper bags and newspaper, should not be dried in microwave drawer. ■ The vent under the drawer must not be blocked. During microwaving, steam may come out of the right side of the vent. ■ It is normal for the exterior of the microwave drawer to be warm to the touch when cooking or reheating. ■ Parafn wax will not melt in the microwave drawer because it does not absorb microwaves. ■ Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing containers from microwave drawer. ■ Keep the microwave inlet cover clean: food residue can cause arcing and/or res (see the “Microwave Drawer Cavity” section in “Microwave Drawer Care”). ■ Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in microwave drawer. Transfer baby food to a small microwave- safe dish and heat, stirring often. ■ Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, squash, hot dogs, and sausages so that steam escapes while cooking. ■ Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended cook time, potatoes should be slightly rm. Let potatoes stand for 5 minutes to nish cooking. ■ Do not cook or reheat whole eggs inside the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst, requiring signicant cleanup of microwave drawer. 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. 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 will heat faster than other foods. Heavy, dense foods, such as meat and potatoes, require a longer cooking time than the same size of a light, porous food, such as cake.8 Cooking Guidelines Cooking Time Monitor the cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite. To test for doneness, insert a thermometer in a thick or dense area away from fat or bone. Do not leave the thermometer in the food during cooking, unless it is approved for microwave use. Use the following chart when checking for doneness: FOOD RECOMMENDED TEMPERATURE Fish 145°F (63°C) Pork Ground beef/veal/lamb Egg dishes 160°F (71°C) Leftovers Refrigerated deli and carry-out “fresh” food Whole, pieces, and ground turkey/chicken/duck 165°F (74°C) Covering Covering food helps retain moisture, shorten cook time, and reduce spattering. Use the lid supplied with cookware. If a lid is not available, wax paper, paper towels, or plastic wrap approved for microwave drawers may be used. Plastic wrap should be turned back at one corner to provide an opening to vent steam. Condensation on the door and cavity surfaces is normal during heavy cooking. Stirring and Turning Stirring and turning redistribute heat evenly to avoid overcooking the outer edges of food. Stir from outside to center. If possible, turn food over from bottom to top. Arranging If heating irregularly shaped or different sized foods, arrange the thinner parts and smaller sized items toward the center. If cooking several items of the same size and shape, place them in a ring pattern, leaving the center of the ring empty. Piercing Before heating, use a fork or small knife to pierce or prick foods that have a skin or membrane, such as potatoes, egg yolks, chicken livers, hot dogs, and sausage. Prick in several places to allow steam to vent. Shielding Use small, at pieces of aluminum foil to shield the thin pieces of irregularly shaped foods, bones and foods such as chicken wings, leg tips and sh tail. See the “Aluminum Foil and Metal” section rst. Standing Time Food will continue to cook by the natural conduction of heat even after the microwave cooking cycle ends. The length of standing time depends on the volume and density of the food. Cookware and Dinnerware Cookware and dinnerware must t on the turntable. Always use oven mitts or pot holders when handling because any dish may become hot from heat transferred from the food. Do not use cookware and dinnerware with gold or silver trim. Use the following chart as a guide, then test before using. MATERIAL RECOMMENDATIONS Aluminum Foil, Metal See “Aluminum Foil and Metal” section. Browning Dish Bottom must be at least 3/16" (5 mm) above the turntable. Follow manufacturer’s recommendations. Ceramic Glass, Glass Acceptable for use. China, Earthenware Follow manufacturer’s recommendations. Melamine Follow manufacturer’s recommendations.

Silicone Bakeware Follow manufacturer’s recommendations. Straw, Wicker, Wooden Containers Do not use in microwave drawer. Wax Paper Acceptable for use. To Test Cookware or Dinnerware for Microwave Use:

1. Place cookware or dinnerware in microwave drawer with

1 cup (250 mL) of water beside it.

2. Cook at 100% cooking power for 1 minute.

Do not use cookware or dinnerware if it becomes hot and the water stays cool. Aluminum Foil and Metal Always use oven mitts or pot holders when removing dishes from the microwave drawer. Aluminum foil and some metal can be used in the microwave drawer. If not used properly, arcing (a blue ash of light) can occur and cause damage to the microwave drawer. When using aluminum foil, only use small, at pieces placed smoothly on the food. Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface of the microwave drawer. OK for Use Racks and bakeware supplied with the microwave drawer (on some models), aluminum foil for shielding, and approved meat thermometers may be used with the following guidelines: ■ To avoid damage to the microwave drawer, do not allow aluminum foil or metal to touch the inside cavity walls, ceiling, or oor. ■ To avoid damage to the microwave drawer, do not allow contact with another metal object during microwave cooking.9 Do Not Use ■ Metal cookware and bakeware ■ Gold, silver, and pewter ■ Nonapproved meat thermometers ■ Skewers ■ Twist ties ■ Oil liners such as sandwich wrappers ■ Staples ■ Objects with gold or silver trim or a metallic glaze ■ Non-heat-resistant glass ■ Plastics that are not microwave safe, such as margarine tubs ■ Recycled paper products and brown paper bags. Microwave Cooking Power Many recipes for microwave cooking specify which cooking power to use by percent, name, or number. For example, 70%=Medium-High. When using the microwave drawer at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off: this is normal microwave operation.

WARNING Food Poisoning Hazard Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.12 Sensor Cooking Information A sensor in the microwave drawer detects humidity released from the food as it heats and adjusts the cook time accordingly. Many sensor cycles require the covering of foods. Microwave-safe containers or steamers with loose-tting lids are recommended. The loose-tting lid allows enough steam to escape to be detected by the sensor. When covering foods with plastic wrap, be sure to leave a large enough vent opening to allow the steam to escape. Sensor cooking options include Sensor Popcorn, Sensor Cook, and Sensor Reheat. NOTES: ■ The microwave drawer should be plugged in for at least 3 minutes before using any sensor setting. ■ The microwave drawer cavity and the exterior of the cooking container should be dry. ■ The room temperature should not exceed 95°F (35°C). ■ Once the sensor cycle begins, the food name will appear on the display. If the drawer is opened during this time, sensing will stop and the program will be canceled. When sensing is complete, a remaining time will appear on the display. Once the time is displayed, you may open the drawer to stir or season food, if desired. ■ Check food temperature after cycle is complete. If additional time is needed, continue to cook using the manual settings. ■ Except when using Sensor Popcorn, if the sensor does not detect humidity properly, “ERROR” will be displayed, and the microwave drawer will turn off. ■ The sensor works with foods at normal storage temperature. If your food is frozen, it will need to be defrosted before using a sensor cycle. Sensor Reheat The sensor in the microwave drawer determines the reheating time based on the weight of the food being heated. Sensor Reheat will detect humidity and reheat food items from 4 to 36 oz (113-1020 g). To Use Sensor Reheat:

1. Place food, loosely covered, in the microwave drawer, and

When the cycle ends, “LET STAND COVERED” will appear in the display, and end-of-cycle tones will sound, followed by reminder tones.

4. Touch Stop or open the drawer to clear the display.

Sensor Popcorn The sensor in the microwave drawer determines the appropriate popping time of commercially packaged microwavable popcorn.
