ABOUT YOUR OVEN
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.
ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb
the microwave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you
may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal
for the exterior of the oven to be warm to the touch
when cooking or reheating.

Information You Need To Know
DO
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 oven.
Generally, covered foods will not cause as much con-
densation as uncovered ones. Vents on the oven back
must not be blocked.
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be
used to dry clothes or newspapers.
Your oven is rated 1200 watts by using the IEC Test
Procedure. In using recipes or package directions,
check food a minute or two before the minimum time
and add time accordingly.
