Do not substitute similar types or racks for these specially designed ones.

High rack (Baking rack) – for convection and turbo bake.

- This rack is placed on the turntable for two-level cooking, such as layer cakes, muffins, etc.

Low rack (Broiling rack) - for convection, broiling or turbo roast.

- Place on the turntable and use for roasting or broiling to allow juices to drain away from food.

Microwave Oven Important Information

This Use and Care Manual is valuable: read it carefully and always save it for reference.

A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it for microwave cooking principles, techniques, hints and recipes.

NEVER use the microwave oven without the turntable and support nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could be placed in the microwave oven. The turntable will turn both clockwise and counterclockwise.

ALWAYS have food in the microwave oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy.

When using the microwave oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal for the exterior of the microwave 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 influence the amount of moisture that condenses in the microwave oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered ones. Ventilation openings must not be blocked.

The microwave oven is for food preparation only. It should not be used to dry clothes or newspapers.

Your Convection Microwave Oven is rated 900 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before the minimum time setting elapses and add time accordingly.

ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING

• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
• Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking before 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 the center of the dish to the outside.

• Use standing time. Always allow food to stand in or out of the oven after cooking power stops. Standing time after defrosting or cooking allows the temperature to evenly spread throughout the food, improving the cooking results.

• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking temperatures have been reached.
• Doneness signs include:
• Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
• Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.
• Poultry thigh joints move easily.
• Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
• Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

ABOUT FOODS

• Always use a Popcorn Tray (NordicWare®) made from heavy weight thermoset polyester when popping bagged microwave popcorn.
• Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers—for example, closed jars—will explode and should not be heated in this microwave oven. Such use of the microwave oven could result in injury.
• Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven. Pressure will build up inside egg yolk and will cause it to burst, possibly resulting in injury.
• Operating the microwave with no food inside for more than a minute or two may cause damage to the microwave oven and could start a fire. It increases the heat around the magnetron and can shorten the life of the microwave oven.
• Foods with unbroken outer "skin" such as potatoes, hot dogs, sausages, tomatoes, apples, chicken livers and other giblets, and egg yolks should be pierced to allow steam to escape during cooking.
• Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even with the lid off. Make sure all infant food is thoroughly cooked. Stir food to distribute the heat evenly. Be careful to prevent scalding when warming formula or breast milk. The container may feel cooler than the milk really is. Always test the milk before feeding the baby.
• Spontaneous boiling—Under certain special circumstances, liquids may start to boil during or shortly after removal from the microwave oven. To prevent burns from splashing liquid, we recommend the following: before removing the container from the microwave oven, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for 30 to 40 seconds after the microwave oven has shut off. Do not boil liquids in narrow-necked containers such

Microwave Oven Important Information (continued)

as soft drink bottles, wine flasks and especially narrow necked coffee cups. Even if the container is opened, excessive steam can build up and cause it to burst or overflow.

• Do not defrost frozen beverages in narrow-necked bottles (especially carbonated beverages). Even if the container is opened, pressure can build up. This can cause the container to burst, possibly resulting in injury.
• Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be careful when opening any containers of hot food, including popcorn bags, cooking pouches and boxes. To prevent possible injury, direct steam away from hands and face.
• Do not overcook potatoes. They could dehydrate and catch fire, causing damage to your microwave oven.
• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 170°F Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.

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 oven. 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
• paper plates
  • microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain
• browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheating time. Follow manufacturer's directions.)

These items can be used for short time reheating of foods that have little fat or sugar in them:

- wood, straw, wicker

DO NOT USE

• metal pans and bakeware
• dishes with metallic trim
• non-heat-resistant glass
• non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)
• recycled paper products
- brown paper bags
- food storage bags
- metal twist-ties

Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the microwave oven and microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. 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 bag so steam can escape.

How to use aluminum foil in your microwave oven:

• Small flat 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 one inch to any surface of the microwave 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 so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in determining correct doneness and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures. Sears is not responsible for any damage to the microwave oven when accessories are used.

ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE

Children should use the microwave oven with a supervising person very near to them or in the same room.

At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or push down on the microwave oven door.

Children should be taught all safety precautions: use potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special attention to packages that crisp food because they may be extra hot.

Don't assume that because a child has mastered one cooking skill he/she can cook everything.

Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not a toy.

Microwave Oven Important Information (continued)

ABOUT SAFETY

- Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States Department of Agriculture's recommended temperatures.

160°F	For fresh pork, ground meat, boneless white poultry, fish, seafood, egg dishes and frozen prepared food.
165°F	For leftover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated, and deli and carry-out "fresh" food.
170°F	White meat of poultry.
175°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 oven 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 utensils 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 cavity 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 fires.
• Use care when removing items from the microwave oven so that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not touch the safety door latches.

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 Defrost chart, you need to defrost manually.

You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously cooked, by using Power level 30. Follow the exact procedure found under Time cooking. Estimate defrosting time and lower your power level to 30%.

For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the rule of thumb is approximately 5 minutes per pound. For example, defrost 5 minutes for 1 pound of frozen spaghetti sauce.

Always stop the 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 oven in 1 minute increments on power level 30 until totally defrosted.

When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost only long enough to remove from the plastic in order to place in a microwave-safe dish.

• Suppose you want to defrost for 5 minutes.

1. Enter defrost time by pressing 500 on the numeric pads. 5:00

2. Press Power Level.

3. Enter power level by pressing 3 on the numeric pads.

Microwave Operating Instructions

SENSOR MODES

The 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 level for various foods and quantities. Popcorn, Sensor Cook and Sensor Reheat are part of the Sensor Modes.

Using Sensor Modes:

1. After oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before using Sensor Modes.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel.
3. The oven works with foods at normal storage temperature. For example, popcorn would be at room temperature.

4. Any Sensor Modes selection can be programmed with More or less time adjustment.

5. More or less food than the quantity listed in the chart should be cooked following the guidelines in any microwave cookbook.

6. During the first part of any sensor cooking or reheating, SENSING will appear on the display. Do not open the oven door during this part of the cycle. The measurement of vapor will be interrupted. If this occurs, an error message will appear. To continue cooking, press the STOP pad and cook manually.

When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the food, remainder of cooking time will appear. Door may be opened when remaining cooking time appears on the display. At this time, you may stir or season food, as desired.

1. Except for popcorn and bacon, if the sensor does not detect vapor properly when cooking other foods, ERROR will be displayed.

2. Check food for temperature after cooking. If additional time is needed, continue to cook manually.

COVERING FOODS

Some foods cook better when covered. Use the cover recommended in the food charts.

1. Casserole lid.
2. Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow approximately 1/2 inch to remain uncovered to allow steam to escape. Plastic wrap should not touch food.
3. Wax paper: Cover dish completely; fold excess wrap under dish to secure. If dish is wider than paper, overlap two pieces at least one inch to cover.

Be careful when removing any covering to allow steam to escape away from you.

POPCORN

You can cook popcorn by touching a quick pad (Popcorn). You don't need to calculate cooking time or power level.

! WARNING

Do not place microwave popcorn directly on the metal turntable. Always use a Popcorn Tray (NordicWare®) when popping bagged microwave popcorn.

• Suppose you want to pop a 3.5 oz. bag of popcorn.

1. Press Popcorn. USE POPCORN TRAY, REGULAR, SELECT SIZE PRESS TOR2

2. Press 2 for regular size. REGULAR

3. Press START START.

Amount
1. Snack	1.5 - 1.75 oz bag
2. Regular	3 - 3.5 oz bag

Procedure

Use only popcorn packaged for the microwave. Try several brands to decide which you like. Do not try to pop unpopped kernels. Use the popcorn tray provided with your unit to cook popcorn quickly and efficiently. This sensor works well with most brands of microwave popcorn. You may wish to try several and choose your favorite. Pop only one bag at a time. Unfold the bag and place in oven according to directions.

NOTES

The final result will vary according to the food condition (e.g. initial temperature, shape, quality). Check food for temperature after heating. If additional time is needed, continue to heat manually.

This mode can be programmed with More or less time adjustment. Touch the Power Level pad once or twice before touching START pad.

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. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the door surface.

Touch Control Panel

Care should be taken in cleaning the touch control panel. If the control panel becomes soiled, open the Microwave 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 ☐ STOP.

Interior — After Microwave Cooking

Cleaning is easy because little heat is generated to the interior surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and 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.

Interior — After Convection

Spatters may occur because of moisture and grease. Wash immediately after use with hot, soapy water. Rinse and polish dry. Harder to remove spatters may occur if oven is not thoroughly cleaned or if there is long time/high temperature cooking. If so, you may wish to purchase an oven cleaner pad with liquid cleaner within it — not a soap filled steel pad for use on stainless steel or porcelain surfaces.

Follow manufacturer's directions carefully and be especially cautious not to get any of the liquid cleaner in the perforations on the wall or ceiling or any door surfaces.

Rinse thoroughly and polish dry.

After cleaning the interior thoroughly, residual grease may be removed from the interior ducts and heater by simply operating the oven on 450°F for 20 minutes without food. Ventilate the room if necessary.

Waveguide Cover

The waveguide cover is made from mica so 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 immediately after they occur. Built-up splashes may overheat and cause smoke or possibly catch fire. Do not remove the waveguide cover.

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 measuring cup. Boil for several minutes using 100% power. Allow to set in oven until cool. Wipe interior with a soft cloth.

Turntable/Turntable Support/Racks

The turntable, turntable support and racks can be removed for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy water; for stubborn stains use a mild cleanser and a non-abrasive scouring sponge. They are also dishwasher-proof. Use top rack of dishwasher for turntable support.

Foods with high acidity, such as tomatoes or lemons, will cause the porcelain enamel turntable to discolor. Do not cook highly acidic foods directly on the turntable; if spills occur, wipe up immediately.

The turntable motor shaft is not sealed, so excess water or spills should not be allowed to stand in this area.
