Add Minute
The ADD MINUTE pad starts the microwave oven for 1 minute at 100% power. More cook time may be added in 1-minute increments by touching ADD MINUTE repeatedly. The Add Minute function may be used only when no other function is operating.

Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, paper, including brown paper bags and newspaper should not be dried in the oven. Do not use the microwave oven for canning, sterilizing or deep frying. The oven cannot maintain appropriate temperatures. Paraffin wax will not melt in the oven because it does not absorb microwaves. Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing containers from oven. 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. Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time.

Tones
Tones are audible signals, indicating the following:

Food Characteristics
When microwave cooking, the amount, size and shape, starting temperature, composition and density of the food affect cooking results.

One tone
�

Valid entry (short tone)

Amount of Food
The more food heated at once, the longer the cook time. Check for doneness and add small increments of time if necessary.

Two tones
� �

End of stage in multistage cooking Child Lock active (short tones)

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.

Three tones
�

End of cycle

Five tones
�

Starting Temperature
Room temperature foods will heat faster than refrigerated foods, and refrigerated foods will heat faster than frozen foods.

During Auto Defrost cycle, reminder to check, turn, rearrange or separate food

Child Lock
The Child Lock disables the control panel pads to prevent unintended use of the microwave oven. To Lock/Unlock Control: The microwave oven must be off. Touch and hold START/ENTER for 5 seconds until 2 tones sound and �L� appears on the display. Repeat to unlock and clear the display (2 tones will sound).

Composition and Density

Foods high in fat and sugar will reach a higher temperature and heat faster than other foods. Heavy, dense foods, such as meat and potatoes, require a longer cook time than the same size of a light, porous food, such as cake.

Cooking Guidelines
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 ovens may be used. Plastic wrap should be turned back at one corner to provide an opening to vent steam.

MICROWAVE OVEN USE
A magnetron in the 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.
� � �

Stirring and Turning
Stirring and turning redistributes heat evenly to avoid overcooking the outer edges of food. Stir from outside to center. If possible, turn food over from bottom to top.

Do not lean on or allow children to swing on the oven door. Do not operate microwave oven when it is empty. The turntable must be in place and correct side up when oven is in use. Do not use if turntable is chipped or broken. See �Assistance or Service� section to reorder. Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in the oven.

Arranging
If heating irregularly shaped or different sized foods, the thinner parts and smaller sizes should be arranged 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.
