Installation and Grounding Instructions
Examine Your Oven
Unpack oven, remove all packing material and examine the oven
for any damage such as dents, broken door latches or cracks in the
door. Notify dealer immediately if oven is damaged. DO NOT install
if oven is damaged.
Placement of Oven
1. The oven must be placed
on a flat, stable surface.
Place the front surface of
the door 3 inches
(7.6 cm) or more from
the counter top edge to
avoid accidental tipping
of the microwave oven
during normal use. For
proper operation, the oven must have sufficient airflow. Allow
3 inches (7.6 cm) of space on both sides of the oven and 1 inch
(2.5 cm) of space on top of the oven.

operation, the oven may overheat and be damaged.
(b) DO NOT place oven near a hot, damp surface such as a
gas or electric range, sink, or dishwasher.
(c) DO NOT operate oven when room humidity is excessive.
2. This oven is manufactured for household use only. It is not
approved or tested for mobile vehicle, marine, or commercial
use.
Installation
1.
DO NOT block air vents. If they are blocked during operation,
the oven may overheat. If the oven overheats, a thermal safety
device will turn the oven off. The oven will remain inoperable
until it has cooled.
WARNING: IMPROPER USE OF THE GROUNDING
PLUG CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded. If it is necessary to use
an extension cord, use only a three-wire extension cord that has a
three-prong polarized grounding plug, and a three-slot receptacle
that will accept the plug of the appliance. The marked rating of the
extension cord should be equal to or greater than the electrical
rating of the appliance.
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.
• Plug into properly
installed and grounded
three-prong outlet.
3. DO NOT dry clothes, newspapers or other
materials in the oven, or use newspaper or
paper bags for cooking.
4. DO NOT hit or strike Control Panel. Damage
to controls may occur.
5. DO NOT use recycled paper products
unless the paper product is labeled as safe for microwave oven
use. Recycled paper products may contain impurities, which may
cause sparking.
TO AVOID THE RISK OF SCALDING:
POT HOLDERS should always be used when removing items from
the oven. Heat is transferred from
the HOT food to the cooking
container and from the container
to the Glass Tray. The Glass
Tray can also be very HOT after
removing the cooking container
from the oven.
Glass Tray
1. DO NOT operate the oven without the Roller Ring and the Glass
Tray in place.
2. DO NOT operate the oven without the Glass Tray fully engaged
on the drive hub. Improper cooking or damage to the oven
could result. Verify that the Glass Tray is properly engaged and
rotating by observing its rotation when you press Start.
Note: The Glass Tray can turn in either direction.
3. Use only the Glass Tray specifically designed for this oven.
DO NOT substitute any other glass tray.
4. If the Glass Tray is hot, allow to cool before cleaning or placing

5. DO NOT cook directly on the Glass Tray. Always place food in
a microwave safe dish, or on a rack set in a microwave safe dish.
6. If food or utensil on the Glass Tray touches oven walls, causing
the tray to stop moving, the tray will automatically rotate in the
opposite direction.
Roller Ring
1. The Roller Ring and oven floor should be cleaned frequently to
prevent excessive noise.
2. Always replace the Roller Ring and the Glass Tray in their proper
positions.
3. The Roller Ring must always be used for cooking along with the
Glass Tray.
3-Pronged Plug
Ground Plug
3-Prong Receptacle
For proper use of your oven, read remaining safety cautions and operating instructions.
4
• DO NOT remove ground prong.
• DO NOT use an adapter.
Power Supply
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a
longer cord.
2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be
used if care is exercised in their use. DO NOT let cord hang over
edge of a table or counter.
3. If a long cord or extension cord is used,
(1) the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance,
(2) the extension cord must be a grounding-type three-wire
cord, and
(3) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not
drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.
Wiring Requirements
The oven must be operated on a SEPARATE CIRCUIT. No other
appliance should share the circuit with the microwave oven.
If it does, the branch circuit fuse may blow or the circuit breaker
may trip. The oven must be plugged into at least a 20 A, 120 V, 60
Hz GROUNDED OUTLET. Where a standard two-prong outlet is
encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of
the consumer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-
prong outlet. The VOLTAGE used must be the same as specified on
this microwave oven (120 V, 60 Hz).
Using a higher voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire or oven
damage. Using a lower voltage will cause slow cooking. Panasonic
is NOT responsible for any damages resulting from the use of the
oven with any voltage other than specified.

Installation and Grounding Instructions
(continued)
Food Preparation
Follow these Safety Precautions when cooking in your oven.
IMPORTANT
Proper cooking depends upon the power, the time setting
and quantity of food. If you use a smaller portion than
recommended but cook at the time for the recommended
portion, fire could result.
1) HOME CANNING / STERILIZING / DRYING FOODS / SMALL
QUANTITIES OF FOODS
• DO NOT use your oven for home canning. Your oven cannot
maintain the food at the proper canning temperature. The food
may be contaminated and then spoil.
• DO NOT use the microwave oven to sterilize objects (baby
bottles, etc.). It is difficult to keep the oven at the high
temperature needed for sterilization.
• DO NOT dry meats, herbs, fruits or vegetables in your oven.
Small quantities of food or foods with low moisture content can
dry out, scorch or catch on fire if overheated.
2) POPCORN
Popcorn may be popped in a microwave oven corn popper.
Microwave popcorn that pops in its own package is also available.
Follow popcorn manufacturers’ directions and use a brand suitable
for the cooking power of your microwave oven.
CAUTION: When using pre-packaged microwave popcorn, you can
follow recommended package instructions or use the Popcorn pad
(refer to page 11). Otherwise, the popcorn may not pop adequately
or may ignite and cause a fire. Never leave the oven unattended
when popping popcorn. Allow the popcorn bag to cool before
opening, and always open the bag facing away from your face and
body to prevent steam burns.
5
3) DEEP FAT FRYING
• DO NOT deep fat fry in your microwave oven. Cooking oils
may burst into flames and may cause damage to the oven and
may result in burns. Microwave utensils may not withstand the
temperature of the hot oil, and can shatter or melt.
4) FOODS WITH NONPOROUS SKINS
• 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.
• Potatoes, apples, whole squash
and sausages are examples of
foods with nonporous skins. These
types of foods must be pierced
before microwave cooking to
prevent them from exploding.
CAUTION: Cooking dry or old
potatoes can cause fire.
5) GLASS TRAY / COOKING CONTAINERS / FOIL
• Cooking containers get hot during microwaving. Heat is
transferred from the HOT food to the container and the Glass
Tray. Use pot holders when removing containers from the oven
or when removing lids or plastic wrap covers from cooking
containers, to avoid burns.
• The Glass Tray will get hot during cooking. It should be allowed
to cool before handling or before paper products, such as paper
plates or microwave popcorn bags, are placed in the oven for
microwave cooking.
• When using foil in the oven, allow at least 1-inch (2.5 cm) of
space between foil and interior oven walls or door.
• Dishes with metallic trim should not be used, as arcing
may occur.
6) PAPER TOWELS / CLOTHS
• DO NOT use paper towels or cloths that contain a synthetic fiber
woven into them. The synthetic fiber may cause the towel to
ignite. Use paper toweling under supervision.
7) BROWNING DISHES / OVEN COOKING BAGS
• Browning dishes or grills are designed for microwave cooking
only. Always follow instructions provided by the manufacturer.
DO NOT preheat browning dish more than six minutes.
• If an oven cooking bag is used for microwave cooking, prepare
according to package directions. DO NOT
use a wire twist-tie to close bag. Instead
use plastic ties, cotton string or a strip cut
from the open end of the bag.
8) THERMOMETERS
• DO NOT use a conventional
meat thermometer in
your oven. Arcing may
occur. Microwave safe
thermometers are available
for both meat and candy.
9) BABY FORMULA / BABY FOOD
• DO NOT heat baby formula or baby
food in the microwave oven. The glass
jar or surface of the food may appear
warm while the interior can be so hot
as to burn the infant’s mouth and
esophagus.
10) REHEATING PASTRY PRODUCTS
• When reheating pastry products, check temperatures of any
fillings before eating. Some foods have fillings, which heat faster
and can be extremely hot, while the surface remains warm to the
touch (for example, jelly donuts).
11) GENERAL OVEN USAGE GUIDELINES
• DO NOT use the oven for any purpose other than the
preparation of food.

Preparation For Freezing:
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

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.

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.

microondas no soporten la temperatura del aceite caliente y se
pueden romper o derretir.
4) ALIMENTOS CON PIEL NO POROSA
• NO COCINAR/RECALENTAR HUEVOS ENTEROS, CON O SIN
CÁSCARA.
• La acumulación de vapor
en los huevos enteros
puede hacerlos explotar
y posiblemente dañe el
horno o cause lesiones.
Recalentar huevos duros
EN RODAJAS y cocinar huevos REVUELTOS es seguro.
• Las papas, manzanas, la calabaza
entera y las salchichas son algunos
ejemplos de alimentos con piel no
porosa. Estos tipos de alimentos
pueden perforarse antes de la
cocción en microondas para evitar
que exploten.
PRECAUCIÓN: Cocinar papas
viejas o secas puede causar
incendios.
5) BANDEJA DE VIDRIO / RECIPIENTES DE COCCIÓN / PAPEL DE
ALUMINIO
• Los utensilios para cocinar se calientan durante la cocción
en microondas. Use soportes para lo caliente, cuando saque
los utensilios del horno o cuando quite tapas o cubiertas de
