Getting to Know Your

Microwave Oven

This section discusses the concepts behind microwave cooking. It also shows you the basics you need to know

to operate your microwave oven. Please read this information before you use your oven.

HOW YOUR KENMORE ULTRA WAVE™ MICROWAVE

HOOD COMBINATION WORKS

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, radio waves, or

light waves. You cannot see them, but you can see

what they do.

A magnetron in the microwave oven produces

microwaves. The microwaves move into the oven

where they contact food as it turns on the turntable.

Magnetron

Conventional microwave ovens operate on HIGH

power only. To achieve a 70% power level in a

conventional microwave oven, the oven operates

70% of the time at HIGH power and 30% of the

time OFF.

The glass turntable of your microwave oven lets

microwaves pass through. Then they bounce off a

metal floor, back through the glass turntable, and

are absorbed by the food.

Microwaves pass through most glass, paper, and

plastics without heating them so food absorbs the

energy. Microwaves bounce off metal containers so

food does not absorb the energy.

Sensor Cooking

The ULTRA WAVE™ Inverter Microwave System fea

tures Sensor Cooking functions. A humidity sensor in

the oven cavity detects moisture and humidity emitted

from food as it heats. The sensor adjusts cooking times

to various types and amounts of food. Sensor cooking

takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.

For the best cooking results

• Always cook food for the shortest cooking time

recommended. Check to see how the food is

cooking.

• Stir, turn over, or rearrange the food being

cooked about halfway through the cooking time

for all recipes. This will help make sure the food

is evenly cooked.

• If you do not have a cover for a dish, use wax

paper, or microwave-approved paper towels or

plastic wrap. Remember to turn back a corner of

the plastic wrap to vent steam during cooking.

Radio interference

Using your microwave oven may cause interference

to your radio, TV, or similar equipment. When there is

interference, you can reduce it or remove it by:

• Cleaning the door and sealing surfaces of the oven.

• Adjusting the receiving antenna of the radio or

television.

’ Moving the receiver away from the microwave oven.

' Plugging the microwave oven into a different outlet

so that the microwave oven and receiver are on

different branch circuits.
