IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Microwave ovens have been thoroughly tested for safe and eﬃcient operation. However,

as with any appliance, there are special installation and safety precautions which must be

followed to ensure safe and satisfactory operation and prevent damage to the unit.

wWARNING

•Read all instructions before using the

microwave oven.

•Read and follow the speciﬁc

“PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POS-

SIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE

MICROWAVE ENERGY” found on

page 5.

•This appliance must be grounded. Con-

nect only to properly grounded outlet.

See “GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS”

found in the Installation Instructions.

•Install or locate this appliance only in

accordance with the provided Installation

Instructions.

•Some products such as whole eggs in

the shell and sealed containers – for ex-

ample, closed glass jars – could explode

and should not be heated in this oven.

•Do not heat, store, or use ﬂammable

materials in or near the oven. Fumes

could create a ﬁre hazard or explosion.

•Use this appliance only for its intended

use as described in this manual. Do not

use corrosive chemicals or vapors in this

appliance. This type of oven is speciﬁ-

cally designed to heat or cook food. It is

not designed for industrial or labora-

tory use.

•As with any appliance, close supervision

is necessary when used by children.

•Do not operate this appliance if it is not

working properly, or if it has been

damaged or dropped. Electrical shock,

ﬁre, or other hazards could result.

Microwave Oven Safety

To reduce the risk of ﬁre, electrical shock,

burns, injury to persons, exposure to excessive

microwave energy, or damage when using the

microwave oven, follow basic precautions,

including the following:

continued on next page

•This appliance should be serviced only

by qualiﬁed service personnel. Call an

authorized KitchenAid servicer for

examination, repair, or adjustment.

•Do not cover or block any opening on

the appliance. Fire could result.

•Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do

not use this product near water – for

example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet

basement, or near a swimming pool, and

the like.

•Do not immerse cord or plug in water.

•Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

•Do not let cord hang over edge of table

or counter.

•This appliance is suitable for use above

both gas and electric cooking equipment

36 inches or less wide.

•See door surface and interior cleaning

instructions on page 63.

•Do not use an extension cord. If the

power supply cord is too short, have a

qualiﬁed electrician or serviceman install

an outlet near the microwave oven.

•To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

– Do not overcook food. Carefully attend

appliance if paper, plastic, or other

combustible materials are placed inside

the oven to facilitate cooking. Paper

could char or burn, and some plastics

could melt if used when heating foods.

– Do not deep fry in oven. Microwavable

cookware is not suitable and it is

diﬃcult to maintain appropriate deep

frying temperatures.

To reduce the risk of ﬁre in the oven

cavity (continued):

–Test dinnerware or cookware

before using. To test a dish for safe

use, put it into the oven with a cup of

water beside it. Cook at 100% Cook

Power for 1 minute. If the dish gets

hot and water stays cool, do not

use it. Some dishes (melamine,

some ceramic dinnerware, etc.)

absorb microwave energy, becoming

too hot to handle and slowing cooking

times. Cooking in metal containers

not designed for microwave use

could damage the oven, as could

containers with hidden metal (twist-

ties, foil lining, staples, metallic glaze

or trim).

–Remove wire twist-ties from paper or

plastic bags before placing bag in

oven.

–If materials inside the oven should

ignite, keep oven door closed, turn

oven oﬀ, and disconnect the power

cord or shut oﬀ power at the fuse or

circuit breaker panel.

– Do not use the cavity for storage

purposes. Do not leave paper prod-

ucts, cooking utensils, or food in the

cavity when not in use.

•Because of the automatic exhaust fan

feature, the following cautions must be

observed:

–Do not leave the area when using your

cooktop at a high setting. Accidental

ﬁres from boilovers or spattering on the

surface unit could spread, especially if

the exhaust fan is operating.

–Do not allow grease and soil to build

up in the grease ﬁlter. Exhaust fan

eﬃciency will decrease and ﬁre could

result. Clean often following the ﬁlter

cleaning instructions on page 64.

–Do not change the cooktop or oven

lights without turning the power oﬀ at

the main power supply (see page 65).

Electrical shock could result.

–Do not ﬂame foods on a cooktop

surface below this unit. The fan, if

operating, could spread the ﬂame and

cause personal injury or property

damage.

•Use care when cleaning the vent hood

ﬁlter. Corrosive cleaning agents, such as

lye-based oven cleaners, could damage

ﬁlter.

•Read and follow “Operating safety

precautions” starting on page 6.

Microwave Oven Safety

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID

POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO

EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE

ENERGY...

Do not attempt to operate this oven with

the door open since open-door operation

can result in harmful exposure to micro-

wave energy. It is important not to defeat

or tamper with the safety interlocks.

Do not place any object between the oven

front face and the door or allow soil or

cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing

surfaces.

Do not operate the oven if it is damaged.

It is particularly important that the oven

door close properly and that there is no

damage to the:

(1) Door (bent),

(2) Hinges and latches (broken or

loosened),

(3) Door seals and sealing surfaces.

Do not operate the microwave oven if the

door window is broken.

The microwave oven should be checked

for microwave leakage by qualiﬁed service

personnel after a repair is made.

The oven should not be adjusted or

repaired by anyone except properly

qualiﬁed service personnel.

Do not operate the microwave oven with

the outer cabinet removed.

Microwave Oven Safety

Operating safety precautions

wWARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical

shock, burns, injury to persons, or

damage when using the microwave

oven, follow the precautions on

pages 6-7.

Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside

the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may

cause them to burst and burn you, and

possibly damage the oven. hard-boiledSlice

eggs before heating. In rare instances,

poached eggs have been known to explode.

Cover allow poached eggs and a standing

time of 1 minute before cutting into them.

For best results, stir any liquid several

times before heating or reheating. Liquids

heated in certain containers (especially

cylindrical containers) may become over-

heated. The liquid may splash out with a

loud noise during or after heating or when

adding ingredients (coffee granules, tea

bags, etc.) resulting in harm to the oven

and possible personal injury.

Stir before heating

Never lean on the door or allow a child to

swing on it when the door is open. Injury

could result.

Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not

heat containers, but the hot food does.

Do not overcook potatoes. Fire could

result. At the end of the recommended

cooking time, potatoes should be slightly

firm because they will continue cooking

during standing time. After microwaving,

wrap potatoes in foil and forset aside

5 minutes. They will finish cooking while

standing.

How microwave cooking 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 cannot see them, but you can

see what they do.

Magnetron

A magnetron in the microwave oven pro-

duces microwaves. The microwaves move

into the area under the oven floor. There

they bounce off the mixing antenna into the

oven where they contact the food.

•Although a new rating method* rates

this oven at 850 watts, you may use a

reliable cookbook and recipes developed

for microwave ovens previously rated at

700-800 watts.

* IEC-705 Test Procedure. The IEC-705 Test Procedure is an

internationally recognized method of rating microwave wattage output

and does not represent an actual change to output power or cooking

performance.

Cooking at different cook powers

For best results, some recipes call for

different Cook Powers. The lower the

Cook Power, the slower the cooking. Each

Number Pad also stands for a different

percentage of Cook Power. Many micro-

wave cookbook recipes tell you by number,

percent, or name which Cook Power to use.

The following chart gives the percentage of

Cook Power each Number Pad stands for,

and the Cook Power name usually used. It

also tells you when to use each Cook Power.

Follow recipe or food package instructions if

available.

Weight conversion chart

You are probably used to food weights as

being in pounds and ounces that are frac-

tions of a pound (for example 4 ounces

equals 1⁄ pound). However, in order to enter4

food weight in CUSTOM DEFROST, you

must specify pounds and tenths of a pound.

NUMBER AFTER DECIMAL

.25 One-Quarter Pound

.30

.40

.50 One-Half Pound

.60

.70

.75 Three-Quarters Pound

1.00 One Pound

Defrosting tips

•When using CUSTOM DEFROST, the

weight to be entered is the net weight in

pounds and tenths of pounds (the weight

of the food minus the container).

•Only use CUSTOM DEFROST for raw

food. CUSTOM DEFROST gives best

results when food to be thawed is a

minimum of 0°F. If food has been stored in

a refrigerator-freezer that does not main-

tain a temperature of 0°F or below, always

program a lower food weight (for a shorter

defrosting time) to prevent cooking the

food.

•If the food is kept outside the freezer

for up to 20 minutes, enter a lower food

weight.

•If the food is kept outside the freezer for

more than 20 minutes, and for defrosting

ready-made food, defrost by time and

power and let stand after defrosting.

If the weight on the food package is in

fractions of a pound, you can use the

following chart to convert the weight to

decimals.

•The shape of the package alters the

defrosting time. Shallow rectangular

packets defrost more quickly than a deep

block.

•Separate pieces as they begin to defrost.

Separated pieces defrost more easily.

•You can use small pieces of aluminum

foil to shield foods like chicken wings, leg

tips, and ﬁsh tails, but the foil must not

touch the side of the oven. Foil can

damage the oven lining.

•Shield areas of food with small pieces of

foil if they start to become warm. Make

sure the foil does not touch the sides, top,

or bottom of the oven.

•For better results, a preset standing

time is included in the defrosting time. This

may make the defrosting time seem longer

than expected. (For more information on

standing time, see “Microwave cooking

tips” on page 69.)

Microwave Cooking

Using KEEP WARM

You can safely keep hot, cooked food warm

in your microwave oven for up to 99 minutes,

99 seconds (about 1 hour, 40 minutes). You

can use KEEP WARM by itself, or to auto-

matically follow a cooking cycle.

NOTES:

•KEEP WARM operates for up to 99

minutes, 99 seconds.

•Opening the oven door cancels KEEP

WARM. Close the door and touch KEEP

WARM, then touch START if additional

KEEP WARM time is desired.

•Food cooked covered should be covered

during KEEP WARM.

•Pastry items (pies, turnovers, etc.) should

be uncovered during KEEP WARM.

1. Put hot, cooked food in oven

and close the door.

2. Choose setting.

3. Start oven.

To make KEEP WARM automatically

follow another cycle:

•While you are touching in cooking

instructions, touch KEEP WARM before

touching START.

•When the last cooking cycle is over, you

will hear two tones. “WARM” will come on

while the oven continues to run.

•You can set KEEP WARM to follow

CUSTOM DEFROST, AUTO COOK,

temperature probe cooking, or multi-cycle

cooking.

Microwave Cooking

•Complete meals kept warm on a dinner

plate should be covered during KEEP

WARM.

•Do not use more than one complete

KEEP WARM cycle (about 1 hour, 40

minutes). The quality of some foods will

suﬀer with extended time.

This section gives you instructions for operating each convection function. Please read

these instructions carefully.

Convection broiling ....................... 47

How convection cooking works

Convection cooking circulates hot air

through the oven cavity with a fan. The

constantly moving air surrounds the food to

heat the outer portion quickly. Your oven

uses convection cooking whenever you use

the Convection Command Pads.

Helpful hints for convection

cooking:

•Do not cover baking rack with aluminum

foil. It interferes with the flow of air that

cooks the food.

•Round pizza pans are excellent cookware

for many convection-only items. Choose

pans that do not have extended handles.

•Use convection cooking for items like

souffles, breads, cookies, angel food

cakes, pizza, and for some meat and fish

cooking.

•You do not need to use any special

techniques to adapt your favorite oven

recipes to convection cooking; however,

you may need to lower some temperatures

or reduce some cooking times from the

convection oven cooking directions. See

examples in your cookbook and in the

charts in this section.

Convenience foods cooking

chart ................................................. 49

Convection cooking with the

temperature probe .......................... 50

Temperature probe convection

cooking chart ................................... 52

•When baking cakes, cookies, breads,

rolls, or other baked foods, most recipes

call for preheating. Preheat the empty

oven just as you do a regular oven. You

can start heavier dense foods such as

meats, casseroles, and poultry without

preheating.

•All heatproof cookware or metal utensils

can be used in convection cooking.

•As in conventional cooking, the distance

of the food from the heat source affects

cooking results. Follow cookbook recipes

and refer to the charts in this Use and

Care Guide. It is also helpful to find a

similar recipe in the cookbook index and to

refer to recipes’ suggested techniques.

•Use metal cookware only for convection

cooking. Never use for microwave or

combination cooking since arcing and

damage to the oven may occur.

•After preheating, if you do not open the

door, the oven will automatically hold at

the preheated temperature for 30 minutes.

•You can set up to three convection cycles.

(Example for two crust pies: you can set

the oven to preheat for baking at 425°F

and to finish baking at 350°F.)

wWARNING

Burn Hazard

Use oven mitts to remove items

from microwave.

Do not touch areas near oven vent

openings during use.

Failure to follow these instructions

can result in burns.

Convection baking without preheating

(meats, casseroles, and poultry)

1. Put food in oven and close the door.

2. Choose setting.

Oven will automatically cook at 350°F.

3. Set baking temperature

(optional).

You can enter a temperature between

150°F and 450°F. Example for 325°F:

NOTE: To clear the temperature you

entered, touch CONVECTION BAKE

before entering a bake time. You can

then re-enter the cooking temperature,

if desired.

Convection Cooking

NOTE: Use cookware that will not melt or

burn in the hot oven. Do not use light plastic

containers, plastic wraps, or paper products

during any convection combination cycle.

How combination cooking works

COMBINATION COOKING

Combination Cooking

Microwave

Convection

Combination microwave/convection

Sometimes combination microwave-convec-

tion cooking is suggested to get the proper

cooking results. It shortens the cooking time

for foods that normally need a long time to

cook. This cooking process also leaves

meats juicy on the inside and crispy on the

outside. In combination cooking, the convec-

tion heat and microwave energy alternate

automatically. Your oven has two pre-

programmed settings that make it easy to

cook with both convection heat and micro-

wave energy automatically.

Helpful hints for combination

cooking:

•Meats may be roasted directly on the

Metal Rack or in a shallow roasting pan

placed on the rack. When using the Metal

Rack, please check your cookbook for

information on proper use.

•Less tender cuts of beef can be roasted

and tenderized using oven cooking bags.

•When baking, check for doneness after

cooking time is up. If not completely done,

let stand in oven for a few minutes to

complete cooking.

NOTE: During combination baking, some

cookware may cause arcing when it comes

in contact with the oven walls or metal

accessory racks. Arcing is a discharge of

electricity that occurs when microwaves

come in contact with metal. If arcing occurs,

place a heatproof dish between the pan

and the Metal Rack. If arcing occurs with

other cookware, stop using it for combina-

tion cooking.

Combination cooking with the temperature

probe

The Temperature Probe helps take the

guesswork out of cooking roasts and larger

casseroles. The probe is designed to turn oﬀ

the oven when it senses the temperature

you chose (between 90°F and 200°F). See

your cookbook for helpful information on

cooking diﬀerent types of food.

1. Insert probe into food.

Insert at least 1⁄3 of the Temperature

Probe into the food. (See page 33.)

NOTES:

•If you have not plugged in the Tempera-

ture Probe properly or if probe is defective,

“PROBE” will appear on the Display, three

tones will sound, and the oven will not

turn on.

•For correct probe temperatures for

diﬀerent foods, see the “Temperature probe

combination cooking chart” on pages 61

and 62.

Cooking Guide

Microwave cooking tips

Amount of food

•The more food you prepare, the longer it

takes. A rule of thumb is that a double

amount of food requires almost double the

time. If one potato takes 4 minutes to cook,

you need about 7 minutes to cook two

potatoes.

•If you want to cook two meals or con-

tainers of food at the same time, you can

do so with the Metal Rack. For example,

you can cook two frozen dinners or reheat

two plates of food by placing one on the

rack and one under the rack.

Starting temperature of food

•The lower the temperature of the food

being put into the microwave oven, the

longer it takes to cook. Food at room

temperature will be reheated more quickly

than food at refrigerator temperature.

Composition of food

•Food with a lot of fat and sugar will be

heated faster than food containing a lot

of water. Fat and sugar will also reach a

higher temperature than water in the

cooking process.

•The more dense the food, the longer it

takes to heat. “Very dense” food like meat

takes longer to reheat than lighter, more

porous food like sponge cakes.

Size and shape

•Smaller pieces of food will cook faster

than larger pieces and same-shaped

pieces of food cook more evenly than

irregularly shaped foods.

•With unevenly shaped foods, the thinner

parts will cook faster than the thicker

areas. the thinner parts of chickenPlace

wings and legs in the center of the dish.

Stirring, turning foods

•Stirring and turning foods distributes

heat quickly to the center of the dish and

avoids overcooking at the outer edges of

the food.

Covering food

Cover food to:

•Reduce splattering

•Shorten cooking times

•Retain food moisture

All coverings that allow microwaves to pass

through are suitable.

Releasing pressure in foods

•Several foods (for example: baked

potatoes, sausages, egg yolks, and some

fruits) are tightly covered by a skin or

membrane. This can cause the food to

burst from steam building up in them

during cooking. To relieve the pressure

and to prevent bursting, these foodsprick

before cooking with a fork, cocktail pick, or

toothpick.

Using standing time

•Always allow food to stand for a while

after cooking. Standing time after defrost-

ing, cooking, or reheating always improves

the result since the temperature will then

be evenly distributed throughout the food.

•When cooking in a microwave oven,

food continues to cook even when the

microwave energy is turned oﬀ. Food is no

longer cooked by microwaves, but it is still

being cooked by the high heat left over

from the microwave oven.

•The length of the standing time depends

on the volume and density of the food.

Sometimes it can be as short as the time it

takes you to remove the food from the

oven and take it to the serving table.

However, with larger, denser food, the

standing time may be as long as 10

minutes.

Cooking Guide

Questions and Answers

ANSWERS

You can use a rack only if rack is supplied

with your microwave oven. Use of any rack

not supplied with the microwave oven can

result in poor cooking performance and/or

arcing.

Usable metal includes aluminum foil for

shielding (use small, flat pieces), small

skewers, and shallow foil trays (if tray is not

taller than 3⁄4 inch deep and filled with food

to absorb microwave energy). Never allow

metal to touch walls or door. (For more

information, see page 70.)

This appearance is normal and does not

affect the operation of your oven.

You hear the sound of the transformer

when the magnetron tube cycles on.

As the food becomes hot it will conduct the

heat to the dish. Be prepared to use hot

pads to remove food after cooking.

“Standing time” means that food should be

removed from the oven and covered for

additional time to allow it to finish cooking.

This frees the oven for other cooking.

Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn

following manufacturer’s guidelines or use

the preprogrammed Popcorn pad. Do not

use regular paper bags. Use the “listening

test” by stopping the oven as soon as

the popping slows to a “pop” every 1 or

2 seconds. Do not repop unpopped kernels.

You can also use special microwave

poppers. When using a popper, be sure to

follow manufacturer’s directions. Do not pop

popcorn in glass cookware.

Steam is normally produced during cooking.

The microwave oven has been designed to

vent this steam out the top vent.

QUESTIONS

Can I use a rack in my microwave oven

so that I may reheat or cook on two

levels at a time?

Can I use either metal or aluminum

pans in my microwave oven?

Sometimes the door of my microwave

oven appears wavy. Is this normal?

What are the humming noises that I

hear when my microwave oven is

operating?

Why does the dish become hot when I

microwave food in it? I thought that this

should not happen.

What does “standing time” mean?

Can I pop popcorn in my microwave

oven? How do I get the best results?

Why does steam come out of the air

exhaust vent?
