PARTS AND FEATURES
This manual covers different models. The microwave oven you
have purchased may have some or all of the parts and features
listed. The location and appearance of the features shown here
may not match those of your model.
Tur ntab le
The turntable rotates in both directions to help cook food more
evenly. Do not operate the microwave oven without having the
turntable in place. See “Assistance or Service” to reorder any of
the parts.
NOTE: The turntable, microwave oven light, and cooling fan will
continue to run until the microwave oven door is opened or
CANCEL is touched.
The raised, curved lines in the center of the turntable bottom fit
between the 3 spokes of the hub. The hub turns the turntable
during microwave oven use. The rollers on the support should fit
inside the turntable bottom ridge.
Convection Rack
The convection rack provides optimal heat circulation for
convection cooking.
The rack will become hot. Always use oven mitts or pot
holders when handling.
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow the
rack to touch the inside cavity walls, ceiling or floor.
Always use the turntable.
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not store the
rack in the microwave oven.
Two-level cooking is not recommended.
For best results, do not place popcorn bags on the rack.
The rack is designed specifically for this microwave oven. For
best cooking results, do not attempt to use any other rack in
this microwave oven.
See “Assistance or Service” section to reorder.
Crisper Pan and Handle
The crisper pan, with its nonstick surface and detachable handle,
has been specifically designed for microwave use, and is ideal for
pan-frying (pan-browning) foods in the microwave oven.
The crisper pan will become hot. Always use the handle and
oven mitts or pot holders when handling. Place gripping end
on the edge of pan, squeeze handle, and lift pan.
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow the
crisper pan or handle to touch the inside cavity walls, ceiling
or floor.
Do not place crisper pan on the convection grid. Always use
the turntable as a support for the crisper pan.
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not use another
metal object with the crisper pan.
To avoid damage, do not place hot crisper pan directly on
heat sensitive surfaces.
The crisper pan is designed specifically for this microwave
oven. Do not use it in any other oven.
Use only wooden or plastic cooking utensils to help avoid
scratches.
