Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven
Heating more than one plate of food
When heating plates of food with a cook time that
you set, you can heat
two 10
1
4-in. (26.7 cm)
plates side by side or
one dish larger than
the turntable. You can
heat 2 more plates on
the Cooking Rack for
a possible total of 4
plates. For best
results, halfway
through cooking turn
the plates halfway around until the food in the front
is in the back. Do the same when heating a larger
(9- to 13-in. [23 - 33 cm]) casserole. When heating
4 dinner plates turn as described above and switch
the top plates with the bottom plates.
To heat 2 bottom plates together or one larger dish,
the turntable should not be turning.
You can shut the turntable off by
touching TURNTABLE ON/OFF.
“TURNTABLE OFF” appears on the display. If you
touch TURNTABLE ON/OFF before starting to set the
cooking function, your oven will prompt you to enter
a cooking time without you needing to touch COOK
TIME. Your turntable will be turned back on when
cooking is over or when you touch CANCEL/OFF.
NOTE: You cannot turn off the turntable when using
an “auto” function.
