IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

18. When cleaning appliance sealing surfaces that come together

on closing the door, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or

detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth. Never use metal

scouring pads to clean the Microwave Oven as pieces may break

off of pad and cause electric shock if they come in contact with

electrical parts. See CLEANING AND CARE on page 22.

19. To reduce the risk of ﬁre in the appliance cavity:

a. Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when paper,

plastic or other combustible materials are placed inside the

appliance to facilitate cooking.

b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing

the bag in the appliance.

INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW

ABOUT UNPACKING AND EXAMINING YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN

1. Remove all packing materials from inside the microwave oven.

DO NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER, which is located on the side of

the oven cavity inside of the microwave oven.

3. Remove the feature sticker, if there is one. Check the oven for any damage, such as misaligned or bent oven

door, damaged oven seals and sealing surfaces, broken or loose door and dents inside the cavity or on the front

side of the oven. If there is any damage, do not operate the microwave oven and contact your dealer or a THOR

AUTHORIZED SERVICER.

RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE

Should there be any interference caused by the microwave oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave oven

is on a different electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from the microwave oven as feasible or check

position and signal of receiving antenna.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. The microwave oven is equipped with a cord

having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The electrical requirements are a

120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 20 amp. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is

properly installed and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code

and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding

reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION

CORD. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualiﬁed electrician or serviceperson install an outlet near

the appliance.

If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualiﬁed electrician or serviceperson.

ABOUT YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN

ALWAYS have food in the microwave oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy. The vent under the microwave

oven must not be blocked. During microwaving, steam may come from the left side lower vent (when facing the product).

When using the microwave oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is

normal for the exterior of the microwave oven to be warm to the touch when cooking or reheating. Condensation is a

normal part of microwave cooking and the amount being vented is directly related to the moisture content of the food

and room humidity. A cooler room will produce more condensation. Attention should be paid to the vented area after

each use of the product and wiped down if needed. The microwave oven is for food preparation only. It should not be

used to dry clothes or newspapers. When using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before the

minimum time and add time accordingly. When opening or closing the microwave oven quickly, food in the microwave

oven may be spilled. To clean, please refer to the CLEANING AND CARE section on page 22.

ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING

• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas toward the outside of the dish.

• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely

overcooked can smoke or ignite.

• While cooking, cover foods with paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Check recipes or cookbooks

for other suggestions. Covers prevent splattering and help foods to cook evenly. See ABOUT UTENSILS AND

COVERINGS section on page 9 for information about covering materials safe to use in the microwave oven.

• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if possible.

• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like

roasts must be turned over at least once.

• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom and from right to left.

• Add standing time. Remove food from microwave oven and stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which allows the

food to ﬁnish cooking without overcooking.

• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking temperatures have been reached. Doneness signs include:

- Food steams throughout, not just at the edge.

- Center bottom of the dish is very hot to the touch.

2. Check that there are Installation Instructions, Wall Template, Top Cabinet

Template, Mounting Plate, Installation Hardware Accessories, Charcoal

Filter, Grease Filters and Exhaust Damper Assembly. Read enclosures and

save the Installation Instructions.

INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW

- Poultry thigh joints move easily.

- Meat and poultry show no pinkness.

- Fish is opaque and ﬂakes easily with a fork.

ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS

It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many

pieces already in your kitchen can be used successfully

in your new microwave oven. Make sure the utensil

does not touch the interior walls during cooking.

UTENSILS

Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and

reheating:

• glass ceramic (Pyroceram® or Corningware®)

• heat-resistant glass (Pyrex®)

• microwave safe plastics

• microwave safe paper plates

• microwave safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain

• browning dish (Do not exceed recommended

preheating time. Follow manufacturer’s directions.)

Wood, straw and wicker utensils can be used with

short cook times when reheating foods with little or

no fat or sugar content.

DO NOT USE

• metal pans and bakeware

• dishes with metallic trim

• non-heat-resistant glass

• non-microwave safe plastics (margarine tubs)

• recycled paper products

• brown paper bags

• food storage bags

• metal twist-ties

• aluminum foil

Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for

microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and

microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish that

becomes very hot should not be used.

COVERINGS

The following coverings are ideal:

• Paper towels are good for covering foods for

reheating and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.

• Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.

• Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave

use can be used for cooking and reheating. DO NOT

allow plastic wrap to touch food. Vent so steam can

escape.

• Microwave safe lids are a good choice because heat is

kept near the food to hasten cooking.

• Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or foods

that need tenderizing. DO NOT use metal twist-ties.

Remember to slit bag so steam can escape.

ACCESSORIES

There are many microwave accessories available for

purchase. Evaluate carefully before you purchase so they

meet your needs. A microwave safe thermometer will

assist you in determining correct doneness and assure you

foods have been cooked to safe temperatures. Thor is not

responsible for any damage to the microwave oven when

accessories are used.

ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE

Children under the age of 7 should use the microwave

oven with a supervising person very near to them. Between

the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person should be

in the same room. The child must be able to reach the

microwave oven comfortably. Never allow anyone to lean

or swing on the microwave oven. Children should be taught

all safety precautions. Use potholders. Remove coverings

carefully. Pay special attention to packages that crisp food,

as they may be extra hot. Do not assume a child can cook

everything in the microwave oven just because they have

mastered one skill. The microwave oven is not a toy. See

page 20 for CONTROL LOCK feature.

ABOUT SAFETY

Cook foods to temperatures recommended by the United

States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

145˚F - Fish

160˚F - Pork, ground beef/veal/lamb, egg dishes

165˚F - Whole, pieces and ground turkey/chicken/duck

Leftover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated, deli and carry-out

fresh food.

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 use.

• ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when handling

utensils in contact with hot food. Enough heat from the

food can transfer through utensils to cause skin burns.

• Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face

and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge of a dish’s

covering and carefully open popcorn and oven cooking

bags away from the face.

• Stay near the microwave oven while it’s in use and check

cooking progress frequently so there is no chance of

overcooking food.

• NEVER use the microwave oven for storing cookbooks

or other items.

• Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve its high

quality and minimize the spread of foodborne bacteria.

• Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can cause

arcing and/or ﬁres. See page 22.

• Use care when removing items from the oven so that

utensils, clothes or accessories do not touch the safety

door latches.
