It is wise, if possible, to have counter space on at least one side of the oven. Allow at least 2 inches on the sides, top and at the rear of the oven for air circulation. About Choosing A Location For Your Oven If Built-In Your microwave oven can be built into a cabinet or wall by itself or above certain Dacor wall ovens or warming drawers using Dacor built-in kits: AMTK27S (stainless), AMTK27B (black), AMTK30S (stainless), AMTK36S (stainless), AOMTK27S (stainless), AOMTK27B (black), AOMTK30S (stainless), AOMTK30B (black), AOMTK30G (stone gray). Consult your Dacor dealer for compatibility. Information You Need To Know GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. Electrical Requirements The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp. or more protected electri-cal supply. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided. The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. Should you only have a 2-prong outlet, have a qualied electrician in-stall a correct wall receptacle.A 3-prong adapter may be purchased and used temporar-ily if local codes allow. Follow package directions.A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension Cord If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the microwave oven. The marked rating of the extension cord should be AC 115-120 volt, 15 amp. or more.Be careful not to drape the cord over the countertop or table where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.NOTES:• If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualied electrician or service person.• Neither Dacor nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the correct electrical connec-tion procedures.E4 Information You Need To Know Radio or TV Interference Should there be any interference caused by the micro- wave oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave oven is on a different electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from the oven as feasible or check posi- tion and signal of receiving antenna. About Your Microwave Oven NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could be placed in the oven. The turntable will turn both clockwise and counterclockwise. ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy. When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal for the exterior of the oven to be warm to the touch when cooking or reheating. Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and the moisture in food will inuence the amount of moisture that condenses in the oven. Gener- ally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered ones. Vents on the oven back must not be blocked. The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers. Your oven is rated 1100 watts by using the IEC Test Pro- cedure. In using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before the minimum time and add time accordingly. About Microwave Cooking

• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.

• Watch the cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed. Food se- verely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

• Cover foods while cooking. Check a recipe or cook- book for suggestions like: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spat- tering and help foods to cook evenly.

• Shield with small at pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking be- fore dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.

• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if possible.

• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once.

• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom and from right to left.

• Add standing time. Remove food from oven and stir, if possible. Cover during standing time, allowing the food to nish cooking without overcooking.

• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking temperatures have been reached. Signs of doneness include: - Food steams throughout, not just at edge. - Poultry thigh joints move easily. - Meat and poultry show no pinkness. - Fish is opaque and akes easily with a fork. About Utensils And Coverings It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces already in your kitchen can be used successfully in your new microwave. Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls during cooking. Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and reheating:

• Glass ceramic (Pyroceram

), such as Corningware

• Heat-resistant glass (Pyrex

• Microwave-safe plastics

• Microwave-safe paper plates

• Microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain

• Browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheat- ing time. Follow manufacturer’s directions.) These items can be used for short time reheating of foods that have little fat or sugar in them:

• Dishes with metallic trim

• Non-heat-resistant glass

• Non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)

• Recycled paper products

• Metal twist-tiesE5 HeadingInformation You Need To Know Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the microwave on HIGH for 30 sec- onds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be used. The following coverings are ideal:

• Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.

• Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.

• Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave use can be used for cooking and reheating. DO NOT allow plastic wrap to touch food. Vent so steam can escape.

• Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice because heat is kept near the food to hasten cooking.

• Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or foods that need tenderizing. DO NOT use metal twist ties. Remember to slit the bag so steam can escape. How to use aluminum foil in your Oven:

• Small at pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on the food can be used to shield areas that are either defrosting or cooking too quickly.

• Foil should not come closer than 1 inch to any surface of the oven. Should you have questions about utensils or coverings, check a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe suggestions. Accessories: There are many microwave accessories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before you purchase to make sure that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in determining correct done- ness and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures. Dacor is not responsible for any damage to the appliance when accessories are used. About Children And The Microwave Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave oven with a supervising person very near to them. Be- tween the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person should be in the same room. The child must be able to reach the oven comfortably. At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or sit on the oven. Children should be taught all safety precautions: how to use potholders, remove coverings carefully and pay special attention to packages that crisp food because they may be extra hot. Do not assume because a child has mastered one cooking skill that he/she can cook everything. Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not a toy. See page 20 for Child Lock feature. About Safety Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States Department of Agriculture’s recommended tem- peratures. 160˚F - For fresh pork, ground meat, boneless white poultry, sh, seafood, egg dishes and frozen prepared food. 165˚F - For leftovers, ready-to-reheat refrigerated; deli and carry-out “fresh” food. 170˚F - White meat of poultry. 180˚F - Dark meat of poultry. To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a thick or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER leave the thermometer in the food during cooking, unless it is approved for microwave use.

• ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when handling utensils that are in contact with hot food. Enough heat from the food can transfer through uten- sils to cause skin burns.

• Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge of a dish’s covering and carefully open popcorn and oven cooking bags away from the face.

• Stay near the microwave oven while it’s in use and check cooking progress frequently so that there is no chance of overcooking food.

• NEVER use the microwave oven for storing cookbooks or other items.

• Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve its high quality and minimize the spread of foodborne bacteria.

• Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can cause arcing and/or res.

• Use care when removing items from the oven so that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not touch the safety door latches.E6 HeadingInformation You Need To Know About Foods Food Do Don’t Eggs, sausages, nuts, seeds, fruits and vegetables

• Puncture egg yolks before cooking to prevent “explosion.”

• Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, squash, hot dogs and sausages so that steam escapes.

• Cook eggs in shells.

• Dry nuts or seeds in shells. Popcorn • Use specially bagged popcorn for the microwave.

• Listen while popping corn for the pop- ping to slow to 1 or 2 seconds or use the special POPCORN key.

• Pop popcorn in regular brown bags or glass bowls.

• Exceed maximum time on popcorn package. Baby food • Transfer baby food to small dish and heat carefully, stirring often. Check temperature before serving.

• Put nipples on bottles after heating and shake thoroughly. “Wrist” test before feeding.

• Heat disposable bottles.

• Heat bottles with nipples on.

• Heat baby food in original jars. General • Cut baked goods with lling after heating to release steam and avoid burns.

• Stir liquids briskly before and after heating to avoid “eruption”.

• Use a deep bowl, when cooking liq- uids or cereals, to prevent boilovers.

• Heat or cook in closed glass jars or airtight containers.

• Heat cans in the microwave as harmful bacte- ria may not be destroyed.

• Dry wood, gourds, herbs or wet papers.E7 Heading Microwave Oven Parts

Manual Defrost If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the Defrost Chart or is above or below the limits in the Amount column on the Super Defrost or Compu Defrost Charts on page 18, you need to defrost manually. You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously cooked, by setting the Power Level to 30%. Follow the exact 3 step procedure found under To Set Power Level. Estimate defrosting time and press the POWER LEVEL key eight times for 30% power. For either raw or previously cooked frozen food, the rule of thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound. For example, defrost 4 minutes for 1 pound of frozen spa- ghetti sauce. Always stop the microwave oven periodically to remove or separate the portions that are defrosted. If food is not defrosted at the end of the estimated defrosting time, program the microwave oven in 1 minute increments at a Power Level of 30% until totally defrosted. When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost only long enough to remove from the plastic, then place in a microwave-safe dish. Manual Operation To Set Power Level There are 11 preset power levels. Using lower power levels increases the cooking time, which is recommended for foods such as cheese, milk and long slow cooked meats. Consult a microwave cookbook or recipes for specic recommendations. For example, to defrost for 5 minutes at 30%:

1. Enter the defrost time by touching the number

until the desired power appears.

3. Touch the StARt key.

Dacor's sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects the vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from the food as it heats. The sensor adjusts the cooking times and power levels for various foods and quantities. Using Sensor Settings:

1. After the microwave oven is plugged in, wait 2 min-

utes before using any sensor setting.

2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the

interior of the microwave oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel.

3. The sensor works with foods at normal storage tem-

perature. For example, popcorn would be at room temperature.

4. Any sensor selection can be programmed with More or

Less Time Adjustment. See page 20.

5. More or less food than the quantity listed in the charts

should be cooked following the guidelines in any mi- crowave cookbook.

6. During the rst part of sensor use, the food name will

appear on the display. Do not open the microwave oven or touch StOP/CLeAR during this part of the cycle. The measurement of vapor will be interrupted. If this occurs, an error message will appear. To con- tinue cooking, touch the StOP/CLeAR key and cook manually. When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the food, the remainder of cooking/reheating time will appear. The microwave oven may be opened when the remaining time appears on the display. At this time, you may stir or season food, as desired.

7. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when

popping popcorn, the microwave oven will turn off, and the time of day will be displayed. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when cooking other foods, ERROR will be displayed, and the microwave will turn off.

8. Check the food temperature after cooking. If addition-

al time is needed, continue to cook manually.

9. Each food has a cooking hint. Touch the Set UP/

HeLP key when the HELP indicator is lighted in the display. Covering Foods: Some foods cook best when covered. Use the cover rec- ommended in the charts for these foods. You may refer to the hints by touching the Set UP/HeLP key.

• Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow approxi- mately 1/2 inch to remain uncovered to allow steam to escape. Plastic wrap should not touch food.

• Wax paper: Cover dish completely; fold excess wrap under dish to secure. If dish is wider than paper, over- lap two pieces at least one inch to cover. Be careful when removing any covering to allow steam to escape away from you. You can cook many foods by simply selecting the food and touching StARt. You don’t need to calculate cooking time or power level. For example, to reheat canned chili:

1. Touch the ReHeAt key.

2. Touch the StARt key.

If the control panel becomes soiled, open the oven door before cleaning. Wipe the panel with a cloth dampened slightly with water only. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use any sort of chemical cleaners. Close door and touch STOP/CLEAR. Door Wipe the window on both sides with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped frequently with a damp cloth. Cleaners which are marked specically for use with stain- less steel may be used for the stainless steel model. Follow package directions exactly. Avoid the use of any harsh cleaners or one not marked for use with stainless steel because they may stain, streak or dull the door surface. Other Exterior Surfaces The outside surface is painted. Clean the outside with mild soap and water; rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use any type of household or abrasive cleaner. Waveguide Cover The waveguide cover is made from mica so it requires special care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure good oven performance. Carefully wipe with a damp cloth any food spatters from the surface of the cover immedi- ately after they occur. Built-up splashes may overheat and cause smoke or possibly catch re. Do not remove the waveguide cover. Turntable/Turntable Support The turntable and turntable support can be removed for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy water; for stub- born stains use a mild cleanser and non abrasive scouring sponge. They are also dishwasher-safe. Use the upper rack of the dishwasher. The turntable motor shaft is not sealed, so excess water or spills should be wiped up im- mediately. Other Interior Surfaces Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking, setting of spills or spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth and warm water. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil, use baking soda or a mild soap; rinse thoroughly with hot water. NEVER SPRAY OVEN CLEANERS DIRECTLY ONTO ANY PART OF THE OVEN. Odor Removal Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the oven. To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and juice of 1 lemon and several whole cloves in a 2 cup glass measur- ing cup.
