1.   Freeze meats, poultry, and fish in 
packages with only one or two 
layers of food. Place wax paper 
between layers.
2.   Package in heavy-duty plastic 
wraps, bags (labeled “For 
Freezer”), or freezer paper.
3.   Remove as much air as possible.
4.   Seal securely, date, and label.
To Defrost:
1.   Remove wrapper. This helps 
moisture to evaporate. Juices 
from food can get hot and cook 
the food.
2.   Set food in microwave safe dish.
3.   Place roasts fat-side down. Place 
whole poultry breast-side down.
4.   Select power and minimum 
time so that items will be under-
defrosted.5.   Drain liquids during defrosting.
6.   Turn over (invert) items during 
defrosting.
After Defrosting:
1.   Large items may be icy in the 
center. Defrosting will complete 
during Standing Time.
2.   Let stand, covered, following 
stand time directions on 
page 10.
3.   Rinse foods indicated in the chart.
4.   Items which have been layered 
should be rinsed separately or 
have a longer stand time.

NOTES:
1.   After having used the Sensor 
Reheat feature a few times, you 
may decide you would prefer 
your food cooked to a different 
doneness – that is why you 
would utilize the More/Less 
pads.
2.  When steam is detected by the 
Genius Sensor and two beeps 
sound, the remaining cooking 
time will appear in the display.
Casseroles: Add three to four 
tablespoons of liquid, cover with 
lid or vented plastic wrap. Stir 
when time appears in the display 
window.
Canned foods: Empty contents 
into casserole dish or serving 
bowl, cover dish with lid or vented 
plastic wrap. After reheating, let 
stand for a few minutes.
Plate of food: Arrange food on 
plate; top with butter, gravy, etc. 
Cover with lid or vented plastic 
wrap. After reheating, let stand for 
a few minutes.
DO NOT USE SENSOR REHEAT:
1.   To reheat bread and pastry 
products. Use manual power 
and time for these foods.
2.   For raw or uncooked foods.
3.   If oven cavity is warm.
4.   For beverages.
5.   For frozen foods.
NOTES:
1.  After having used the Sensor 
Cook feature a few times, 
you may decide you would 
prefer your food cooked to 
a different doneness – that 
is why you would utilize the 
More/Less pads.
2.  When steam is detected by the 
Genius Sensor and two beeps 
sound, the remaining cooking 
time will appear in the display.
3. 
Automatic features are 
provided for your convenience. 
If results are not suitable to 
your individual preference, or if 
serving size is other than what 
is listed on page 14, please refer 
to manual cooking on page 9.
For the best results with the 
GENIUS SENSOR, follow these 
recommendations:
BEFORE Reheating/Cooking:
1.  The room temperature 
surrounding the oven should be 
below 95° F (35° C).
2.  Food weight should exceed 4 
oz. (110 g).
3.  Be sure the glass tray, the 
outside of the cooking 
containers and the inside 
of the microwave oven are 
dry before placing food in 
the oven. Residual beads of 
moisture turning into steam 
can mislead the sensor.
4.  Cover food with lid, or with 
vented plastic wrap. Never 
use tightly sealed plastic 
containers—they can prevent 
steam from escaping and 
cause food to overcook.
DURING Reheating/Cooking:
DO NOT open the oven door until 
two beeps sound and cooking time 
appears in the display. Doing so 
will cause inaccurate cooking since 
the steam from food is no longer 
contained within the oven cavity.
Once the cooking time begins 
to count down, the oven door 
may be opened to stir, turn or 
rearrange foods.
AFTER Reheating/Cooking:
All foods should have a standing 
time.

Food Characteristics
Bone and Fat
Both bone and fat affect cooking. Bones may cause 
irregular cooking. Meat next to the tips of bones may 
overcook while meat positioned under a large bone, 
such as a ham bone, may be undercooked. Large 
amounts of fat absorb microwave energy and the meat next to these areas 
may overcook. 
Density
Porous, airy foods such as breads, cakes or rolls take 
less time to cook than heavy, dense foods such as 
potatoes and roasts. When reheating donuts or other 
foods with different centers be very careful. Certain 
foods have centers made with sugar, water, or fat and 
these centers attract microwaves (for example, jelly 
donuts). When a jelly donut is heated, the jelly can become extremely hot 
while the exterior remains warm to the touch. This could result in a burn if 
the food is not allowed to cool properly in the center.
Quantity
Two potatoes take longer to cook than one potato. As the 
quantity of the food decreases so does the cooking time. 
Overcooking will cause the moisture content in the food to decrease and a 
fire could result. Never leave microwave unattended while in use. 
Shape
Uniform sizes heat more evenly. The thin end of a 
drumstick will cook more quickly than the meaty end. 
To compensate for irregular shapes, place thin parts 
toward the center of the dish and thick pieces toward 
the edge.
Size 
Thin pieces cook more quickly than thick pieces. 
Starting Temperature
Foods that are at room temperature take less time to cook than 
if they are chilled, refrigerated or frozen. 
Cooking Techniques
Piercing
Foods with skins or membranes must be pierced, scored or have a strip of skin 
peeled before cooking to allow steam to escape. Pierce clams, oysters, chicken 
livers, whole potatoes and whole vegetables. Whole apples or new potatoes 
should have a 1-inch strip of skin peeled before cooking. Score sausages and 
frankfurters. Do not Cook/Reheat whole eggs, with or without the shell. Steam 
buildup in whole eggs may cause them to explode, and possibly damage 
the oven or cause injury. Reheating SLICED hard-boiled eggs and cooking 
SCRAMBLED eggs is safe. 
Browning
Foods will not have the same brown appearance as conventionally cooked foods 
or those foods which are cooked utilizing a browning feature. Meats and poultry 
may be coated with browning sauce, Worcestershire sauce, barbecue sauce or 
shake-on browning sauce. To use, combine browning sauce with melted butter 
or margarine and brush on before cooking. For quick breads or muffins, brown 
sugar can be used in the recipe in place of granulated sugar, or the surface can be 
sprinkled with dark spices before baking. 
Spacing
Individual foods, such as baked potatoes, cupcakes and appetizers, will cook 
more evenly if placed in the oven equal distances apart. When possible, 
arrange foods in a circular pattern.
Covering
As with conventional cooking, moisture evaporates during microwave 
cooking. Casserole lids or plastic wrap are used for a tighter seal. When using 
plastic wrap, vent the plastic wrap by folding back part of the plastic wrap 
from the edge of the dish to allow steam to escape. Loosen or remove plastic 
wrap as recipe directs for stand time. When removing plastic wrap covers, 
as well as any glass lids, be careful to remove them away from you to avoid 
steam burns. Various degrees of moisture retention are also obtained by using 
wax paper or paper towels. 
Cooking Time
Cooking times will vary because of food shape variations, starting 
temperature, and regional preferences. Always cook food for the minimum 
cooking time given in a recipe and check for doneness. If the food is 
undercooked, continue cooking. It is easier to add time to an undercooked 
product. Once the food is overcooked, nothing can be done.
Stirring
Stirring is usually necessary during microwave cooking. Always bring the 
cooked outside edges toward the center and the less cooked center portions 
toward the outside of the dish.
Rearranging
Rearrange small items such as chicken pieces, shrimp, hamburger patties or 
pork chops. Rearrange pieces from the edge to the center and pieces from the 
center to the edge of the dish. 
Turning
It is not possible to stir some foods to distribute the heat evenly. At times, 
microwave energy will concentrate in one area of the food. To help ensure 
even cooking, these foods need to be turned. Turn over large foods, such as 
roasts or turkeys, halfway through cooking. 
Standing Time
Most foods will continue to cook by conduction after the microwave oven 
is turned off. After cooking meat, the internal temperature will rise 5 °F to 
15 °F (3 °C to 8 °C), if allowed to stand, tented with foil, for 10 to 15 minutes. 
Casseroles and vegetables need a shorter amount of standing time, but this 
standing time is necessary to allow foods to complete cooking to the center 
without overcooking on the edges. 
Test for Doneness
The same tests for doneness used in conventional cooking may be used for 
microwave cooking. Meat is done when fork-tender or splits at fibers. Chicken 
is done when juices are clear yellow and drumstick moves freely. Fish is done 
when it flakes and is opaque. Cake is done when a toothpick or cake tester is 
inserted and comes out clean.
Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States Department of 
Agriculture’s recommended temperatures.
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.
Food Characteristics
 Temp  Food
  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  
    carryout “fresh” food.
  170 °F   For white meat poultry.
  180 °F  For dark meat poultry.

Care and Cleaning of Your Microwave Oven
Please see below and the following 
page for particular cleaning instructions 
for each section of the oven.
BEFORE CLEANING: Unplug oven at wall 
outlet. If outlet is inaccessible, leave oven 
door open while cleaning.
AFTER CLEANING: Be sure to place the 
Roller Ring and the Glass Tray in the 
proper position and press Stop/Reset Pad 
to clear the Display.
1. Outside oven surfaces: Clean with a 
damp cloth. To prevent damage to the 
operating parts inside the oven, water 
should not be allowed to seep into 
ventilation openings.
2. Label: Do not remove. Wipe with a 
damp cloth.
3. Inside the Oven: Wipe with a damp 
cloth after using. Mild detergent may 
be used if needed. Do not use harsh 
detergents or abrasives.
4. Oven Door: Wipe with a soft dry cloth when steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the oven door. During cooking, 
especially under high humidity conditions, steam is given off from the food. (Some steam will condense on cooler surfaces, such as 
the oven door. This is normal.) Inside surface is covered with a heat and vapor barrier film. Do not remove.
5. Oven Cavity Floor: Clean the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent, water or window cleaner, and dry.
6. Wave Guide Cover: Do not remove Wave Guide Cover. It is important to keep cover clean in the same manner as the inside of the 
oven. 
7. Control Panel: The Control Panel is covered with a removable protective film to prevent scratches during shipping. Small bubbles 
may appear under this film, so if this is the case, remove by applying masking or clear tape to an exposed corner and pull gently. If 
the Control Panel becomes wet, clean it with a soft dry cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives. 
8. Glass Tray: Remove and wash in warm soapy water or in a dishwasher.
9. Roller Ring: Roller Ring may be washed in mild soapy water or dishwasher. These areas should be kept clean to avoid excessive noise.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE OVEN CLEAN AND DRY. FOOD RESIDUE AND CONDENSATION MAY CAUSE 
RUSTING OR ARCING AND DAMAGE TO THE OVEN. AFTER USE, WIPE DRY ALL SURFACES, 
INCLUDING VENT OPENINGS, OVEN SEAMS, AND UNDER GLASS TRAY.

See below before calling for service, as most problems can easily be remedied by following these simple solutions:
Problem Solution
The oven causes TV 
interference.Some radio, TV, Wi-Fi, cordless telephone, baby monitor, blue tooth or 
other wireless equipment interference might occur when you cook with the 
microwave oven. This interference is similar to the interference caused by small 
appliances such as mixers, vacuums, blow dryers, etc. It does not indicate a 
problem with your oven.
Steam accumulates 
on oven door and 
warm air comes from 
the oven vents.During cooking, steam and warm air are given off from the food. Most of the 
steam and warm air are removed from the oven by the air which circulates in the 
oven cavity. However, some steam will condense on cooler surfaces such as the 
oven door. This is normal. After use, the oven should be wiped dry (see page 16).
Oven will not turn on.The oven is not plugged in securely or needs to be reset; remove plug from 
outlet, wait ten seconds and re-insert.
Main circuit breaker or main fuse is tripped; reset main circuit breaker or replace 
main fuse.
There is a problem with the outlet; plug another appliance into the outlet to 
check if it is working.
Oven will not start 
cooking.The door is not completely closed; close the oven door securely.
Start was not pressed after programming; press Start.
Another program is already entered into the oven; press Stop/Reset to cancel 
the previous program and enter new program.
The program is not correct; program again according to the Operating 
Instructions.
Stop/Reset has been pressed accidentally; program oven again.
The Glass Tray 
wobbles.The Glass Tray is not positioned properly on the Roller Ring or there is food under 
the Roller Ring; take out Glass Tray and Roller Ring. Wipe with a damp cloth and 
reset Roller Ring and Glass Tray properly.
When the oven is 
operating, there is 
noise coming from 
the Glass Tray.The Roller Ring and oven bottom are dirty; clean these parts according to Care 
and Cleaning of Your Microwave Oven (see page 16).
The word 
“ 
 ” appears in the 
display.The CHILD SAFETY LOCK was activated by pressing Start three times; Deactivate 
CHILD SAFETY LOCK by pressing Stop/Reset three times.
The oven stops 
cooking and “H00“, 
“H97” or “H98” 
appears in the 
display.The oven’s power supply has failed; please contact an authorized Service Center 
(see next page).
