Cooking at lower cook powers For best results, some recipes call for lower Cook Powers. The lower the Cook Power, the slower the cooking. Each Number pad also stands for a different percentage of Cook Power. Most recipes in this book tell you, by number, which Cook Power to use. Recipes in other books and magazines may tell you by name (HI, MED, LO, etc.) or percentage (lo%, 50%, 80%, etc.).
Using Your Microwave Continued Oven 6. Touch START. The COOK 1 Indicator Light will continue to blink to show that the oven is cooking in the first cycle at a Cook Power other than HIGH. The Display counts down the time to show how much cooking time is left in the first cycle. When the cooking time ends, “End” will show on the Display and 3 beeps will sound. (You can stop the beeping by touching CANCEL.) The Display will then show the time of day.
Defrosting Use QUICK DEFROST to thaw frozen food before cooking. For suggested defrost times, see the guide behind the oven door or the charts on pages 48 and 49.

Using Your Microwave Continued - Oven 1 8. Touch START. When you touch START, the QUICK DEFORST Indicator Light will blink and COOK 1 Indicator Light will stay on. The Display counts down the time to show how much time is left in the Quick Defrost cycle. When the defrost time is over, you will hear 2 beeps and the Cook cycle will start. The COOK 1 Indicator Light will blink during the Cook cycle. The Display counts down the time to show how much time is left in the second cycle.
Cooking in more than one cook cycle For best results, some recipes call for one Cook Power for a certain length of time, and another Cook Power for another length of time. You oven can be set to change from one to another automatically. 1. Put food in the oven and close the door. 2. Touch COOK 1 & 2. The COOK 1 Indicator Light will blink and the Display will show 0. 3.

Hints for cooking with more than one cycle You can program the cooking cycles in any order. However, when the microwave oven is started, it will automatically go through the cycles in the order of the examples described in this book. For example, if you program COOK 1, and QUICK DEFROST, the microwave oven will automatically follow this sequence: QUICK DEFROST + COOK 1.
Using Your Microwave Continued Oven Using PAUSE For best results, some recipes call for stirring, turning over or rearranging food, or for adding ingredients during cooking. Your microwave oven can be set to pause between COOK 1 and COOK 2 or between QUICK DEFROST and a following cycle. This gives you time to stir (casseroles), turn over (meat) or rearrange (potatoes) food, or to add ingredients. 1. Put for In the oven and close 2.

Other operating hints To avoid sickness and food waste when using delay start or auto start; l Do not use foods that will spoil while waiting for cooking to start, such as dishes with milk or eggs, cream soups, and cooked meats or fish. Any food that has to wait for cooking to start should be very cold or frozen before it is put in the oven. MOST UNFROZEN FOODS SHOULD NEVER STAND MORE THAN TWO HOURS BEFORE COOKING STARTS. l Do not use foods containing baking powder or yeast when using delay start.
Installation Instructions Before you begin, carefully read the following instructions. Installing your microwave oven 1. Emply the microwave oven and clean inside it with a soft, damp cloth. Check for damage such as misaligned door, damage around the door or dents inside the oven or on the exterior. If there is any damage, please do not operate the unit it has been checked by an authorized Whirlpool’” service technician and any repairs made. 2.
4. ElecPricalrequirements Observe all governing codes and ordinances. A 120 Volt, 60Hz, AC only, 15 or 20 amp fused electrical supply is required. (Time-delay fuse is 5. recommended.) It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS Electrical Shock Hazard Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electrical shock. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE THE POWER SUPPLY CORD GROUNDING PRONG. 6.
Custom mounting your microwave oven Your microwave oven is not limited to carts, counters or tables. Custom installations are made easy with kits available from your dealer. 1. Attach the microwave oven directly to the underside of a cabinet. 4158693 or 4158694 Under-the-Cabinet Mounting Kit Do not install the oven next to or over a conventional surface unit or in any area where excessive heat and steam are generated. This could damage the microwave oven.
How Your Microwave Oven Works Microwave ovens are safe. Microwave energy is not hot. It causes food to make its own heat, and it’s this heat that cooks the food. Microwaves are like TV waves or light-waves. You can’t see them but you can see what they do. Mod netron A mangnetron in the microwave oven produces microwaves. The microwave move into the oven where they are scattered or stirred by a mode mixer (like a fan). Microwaves bounce off metal oven walls and are absorbed by food.
Operating Safety Precautions To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons, or damage when using the microwave oven, follow the precautions on pages 30-33. Never cook or reheat a whole egg. Steam build-up in whole eggs may cause them to burst and burn you, and possibly damage the oven. Slice hard boiled eggs before heating. In rare instances, poached eggs have been known to explode. Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time of one minute before cutting into them.
Do not heat, store or use flammable materials in or near the oven. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion. Do not do canning of foods in the oven. Closed glass jars may explode resulting in damage to the oven or possible personal injury. Do not use the oven to sterilize objects (baby bottles, etc.). It is difficult to maintain the high temperature required for safe sterilization. Do not deep fry in the oven.
Operating Continued Safety Precautions Do not pop popcorn, except in a microwave approved popcorn popper or commercial package desinged especially for microwave ovens. Follow directions supplied with the popper. Never try to pop popcorn in a paper bag. Overcooking may result in smoke and fire. Starting a microwave oven when it’s empty is not recommended. If you experiment, put a conlainer of water in the oven.
General information If your electric power line or outlet voltage is less than the normal 120 volts, cooking times may be longer. To test a dish for safe use, put it into the oven with a cup of water beside it. Cook on HIGH Cook Power for one minute. If the dish gets hot and water stays cool, do not use it.
