GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord
having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
WARNING – Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. The electrical
requirements are 120 Volt, 60 Hz AC only, 20 Amp or more (R-22GV,R-22GT); 230/208 Volt, 60 Hz, AC
only, 15 Amp or more (R-23GT) and 20 Amp or more (R-24GT, R-25JT) fused electrical supply. It is
recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided. When installing this
appliance, observe all applicable codes and ordinances. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use
only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the
plugontheappliance. ThemarkedratingoftheextensioncordshouldbeAC120Volt20Amp(R-22GV,R-
22GT), AC 230/208 Volt 15 Amp (R-23GT), AC230/208 Volt 20 Amp (R-24GT, R-25JT). Consult a
qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood or if doubt
exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

COOKING GUIDE
Utensils
METAL
1) Frozen Precooked Foods in Foil Containers
When cooking foods in foil containers, the container should be no more than 1/2" deep. The best
method to use is, after removing the foil cover, return the metal container to the paper box or package
it came in and place this entire unit in the microwave oven. There must be more food than metal, and
the metal container must not touch the oven walls.
2) Metal Skewers
Small metal skewers may be used if there is a large proportion of food to the amount of metal. If arcing
does begin, stop the oven, remove the food and change to a wooden skewer.
Whenever using metal foil, foil containers or metal skewers, be sure that the metal does not touch the
sides of the oven.
GLASS, GLASS-CERAMIC, CERAMIC AND CHINA UTENSILS
Most glass, glass ceramic, ceramic and china utensils are excellent for use in microwave ovens. Heat-
resistant glassware, unless it has metallic trim or metal portions, can almost always be used in the
microwave oven, no matter whether it is clear or opaque. However, you must be careful not to use delicate
glassware since it might crack from the heat of the food but not from the microwaves.
Most dinner plates, unless they have metallic trim, are acceptable for heating foods.
Utensils with metallic trim or metal parts, such as screws, bands, handles, etc. must be avoided. Cracked
or crazed glazes or chips are also indications that a dish should not be used. Ceramic mugs or cups with
glued on handles are also not recommended for use in a microwave oven.
PAPER GOODS
For low heat cooking, such as reheating or very short cooking times and for foods with low fat, sugar or
water content, paper is a good utensil for microwave oven use. Napkins, towels, plates, cups, cartons,
paperfreezerwrapandthepaperpulpboardthatsomemeatscomepackedinarealsoconvenientutensils
for use in the microwave oven. Cardboard can also be used. Paper is used in the microwave oven as a
moistureinsulator. Waxcoatedpaperplatesandcupsshouldbeavoidedsincethehightemperaturesthat
the foods reach may cause the wax to melt. Plastic coated dishes, however, are fine for use in the
microwave oven.
Wax paper and paper towels provide an excellent loose cover for foods and help prevent spatters. Do not
use paper towels, plates or other utensils made from recycled paper. Recycled paper products may
contain certain impurities which could cause the paper to ignite during microwave heating. Some paper
products may contain harmful substances.
PLASTIC AND FOAM UTENSILS
Plastic and foam dishes and containers should not be used for cooking foods with high fat or high sugar
contentsincetheheatofthefoodistoohotfortheplasticandmaycauseittomeltorloseitsshape.Cooking
pouches designed to withstand boiling and freezing for conventional cooking, work well in the microwave
oven. Do not close plastic cooking pouches with the metal tie wraps provided, since they get very hot and
will melt the plastic wrap. Any closed pouch or cooking container should be pierced so that steam is
allowed to escape. Do not attempt to cook in plastic storage bags as they will not withstand the heat of
the food. Plastic wrap may be used to cover foods during cooking. Stretch-type plastic wraps are not
suitableforuseinthemicrowaveovenbecausetheyformtootightaseal.Wheneverremovingplasticwrap
that has been tightly formed around the utensil, just lift the plastic away from you so that the steam can
vent and there will be no danger of scalding.
Melamine is not recommended for use in the microwave oven.
WICKER, WOOD AND STRAW
Wicker, wood and straw may be used in the oven for short periods of time; however, they should not be
used for high fat or high sugar content foods since the heat of the food could possibly char the utensil.
Wooden handle scrapers and spatulas may be left in the microwave oven during cooking.
16
Guidelines for microwave heating
Several factors should be kept in mind when selecting utensils to be used for microwave heating.
1. Aplatewithanarrowrimofabout1/2-inchisrecommended. Thiskeepsthefoodallatthesamelevel
for more even, uniform heating.
2. Casseroles and sauced items should be heated in straight sided containers.
3. Containers should be chosen to be large enough to contain foods as they expand with heating. Milk
products are especially subject to boil-overs.
4. Most foods heat better if they are covered. Covering retains the heat that has been created, reduces
dehydration and helps keep the oven clean. There should be an opening for steam to escape from
the food. Covers should also be non-metallic to allow for proper heating.
Techniques
1. Microwave cooking is ideal for times when you run out of certain items or for preparation during slow
periods.
2. Avoid overcooking. Small portions of food should stand 2-3 minutes following cooking; during this
standing time foods will complete cooking. Large portions require longer standing times.
3. When a range of times is given in a recipe (2-3 minutes), always cook the shorter amount of time
and check for doneness. Foods can always be returned to the microwave for additional cooking.
Overcooked foods are tough or dry.
4. Arrangefoodswiththickerportionsorlargerpiecestowardtheoutsideofthecookingcontainer.Most
foods cook more evenly and faster if covered.
5. The microwave oven is quite useful in reducing broiling times for steaks and chops. Partially prepare
the meat in microwave oven, then broil for a shorter period of time.
6. Sliced meats should be at least 1/2-inch thick for best heating results. Turning the meat product over
once during the heating process will yield more uniform heating.
Pastries
1. Placing rolls or muffins on a paper towel or napkin or wrapping in a paper towel eliminates excess
moisture and gives best results.
2. Avoid overheating. Baked items will be hotter on the inside than on the outside. Overheating causes
baked products to be dry and tough.
Breakfast Items
1. Eggsshouldbeslightlyundercookedwhenpreparingthemforlaterreheatinginthemicrowave.Cool
quickly and store covered.
2. Arrangefoodsonplatterwitheasilyheateditemsnearcenterofplate(eggs)anddenseritemstoward
outside (sausage).
3. Do not cook eggs in the shell. Pressure will build up inside the shell and it will burst. Do not reheat
cooked eggs unless they are scrambled or chopped. Puncture the yolk before cooking eggs.
Sandwiches
1. Pre-toast bread and cool on air rack. Egg and shortening rich bread gives best results.
2. Sandwich meats should be sliced very thin. When assembling sandwich, place thicker portions
toward outside edges.
3. Cover sandwiches and refrigerate no longer than three hours. When ready to heat in the microwave,
unwrap and place on paper towel or napkin. Most sandwiches should be heated uncovered unless
wrapped in paper towel or napkin. The paper absorbs excess moisture, preventing the sandwich
from becoming soggy.
4. Avoid overheating. Filling heats rapidly, and overheated sandwiches become dry and tough.
17
Casseroles
1. Arrange casseroles with larger pieces or bulk of food around the perimeter of the casserole; depress
in center.
2. Casseroles should be heated covered with a non-metallic cover or plastic wrap except casseroles
with crusts. If tightly covered, puncture plastic wrap or loosen at one corner so steam can escape.
Be careful when removing plastic wrap; pull wrap away from you with the tines of a fork.
3. Cover casseroles evenly with sauce or gravy before refrigerating.
Vegetables
1. Arrange vegetables with larger pieces around the perimeter of the dish; depress in center.
2. Small uniform sized vegetables like peas, diced carrots and corn heat easily in the microwave oven.
A butter sauce will speed the process.
3. Heat vegetables covered with either a non-metallic cover or plastic wrap. If tightly covered, puncture
plastic wrap or loosen at one corner so steam can escape. Be careful when removing plastic wrap;
pull wrap away from you with the tines of a fork.
4. Most vegetables should be slightly undercooked when preparing for later reheating in the micro-
wave. Cool quickly and store covered.
5. Microwaved vegetables retain their bright color, flavor and nutrients.
Defrosting
1. See page 12 for EXPRESS DEFROST directions.
2. Avoid over-defrosting. Foods should be removed from the microwave when they are still slightly icy
in the center. Allow foods to stand covered for 1 to 2 minutes to complete defrosting.
3. SELECTAPOWER allows you to defrost food at the power level and speed you choose. Generally
defrosting is done at 30% or lower. To use SELECTAPOWER for defrosting, first program time
followed by touching the SELECTAPOWER pad and the number pad for percentage of power level
(for example, 3 represents 30% power). The microwave power will pulse on and off to defrost frozen
foods gently without heating. (Not on R-22GV)
Timing guide
Since different foods heat at different rates of speed, there are several influencing factors that should be
taken into consideration when heating foods with microwave energy.
1. The lower the initial temperature of a food, the longer it will take to heat in a microwave oven.
2. Since with a microwave oven you are heating with time rather than temperature, it is helpful to know
the starting temperatures of the foods. Foods held at room temperature will heat more quickly than
refrigerated foods.
3. The different chemical makeups of foods affect the heating times. Highly salted foods heat faster
than non-cured items. Animal fats heat more quickly than lean parts of meat. Fats in a colloidal state
heat faster than protein (egg yolk cooks before the white).
4. The density of a food is determined by how compact the molecules are arranged within the food. A
pound of roast beef is denser than a pound of bread. Even though they weigh the same, the bread
contains more air and is therefore less dense. Denser foods require longer heating times.
5. Thethickerthefood, thelongertheheatingtime. Iftwofoodshavethesamedensity, thethinnerfood
will heat before the thicker one.
6. Theshapeofthefoodalsoaffectstheheatingtime. Lowroundfoodsthataredepressedinthecenter
heat faster than highly mounded scooped foods. This has to do again with the density. The denser
the mass to be heated, the longer the heating time.
7. The more food placed in the oven cavity at one time, the longer the heating time. This is because
there is a constant level of energy coming out of the magnetron tube during the heating process. If
there are several food items in the oven, they will each absorb some of the energy thus making the
total heating time longer. The time required for heating is not directly proportional to the increased
amount of food. The heating time should be increased by about 80% for each additional like food
item.

REMINDERS
1. Do not operate the oven empty. Either food or water should always be in the oven during operation
to absorb microwave energy.
2. Limit use of metal to those specific examples given in this booklet. Generally, metal should not be used
in the microwave oven during operation.
3. Do not heat eggs in the shell. Pressure will build up inside the shell and it will explode. Do not reheat
cooked eggs unless they are scrambled or chopped. Puncture the yolk before heating eggs.
4. Do not heat oil or fat for deep fat frying.
5. Pierce the “skin” of potatoes, whole squash, apples or any fruit, vegetable or meat with a skin covering
before heating.
6. Use only popcorn packaged in special microwavable packages. Pop using 100% power. Listen
carefully when popping corn. When popping slows to one or two seconds between pops, remove from
oven. Should you ever smell scorching, remove bag from oven immediately.If any unpopped kernels
remain, do not try to re-pop; it may cause a fire.
7. Do not use paper towels, plates or other utensils made from recycled paper for microwave heating.
Recycled paper products may contain certain impurities which could cause the paper to ignite during
microwave heating.
