For most cooking, the turntable should be on; however
the turntable can be turned off so that it does not rotate
when extra large dishes, such as the popular 13 x 9 x 2
glass utility casserole, are used. The casserole should
be placed on the turntable so that it is level.
• Suppose you want to cook lasagna in a 13 x 9 x 2
casserole for 45 minutes on 40% power.

When cooking large quantities of food which cannot
be stirred, it is best to use a lower power level such
as 40 or 50%. You may speed cooking for large
amounts by programming 5 to 10 minutes on 100%
power (HIGH) followed by the desired time on lower
power. See page 24 for how to program multiple
sequences. You may wish to reverse a large casserole
once during cooking; simply open door, reposition
casserole, close door and touch START/Touch On.
USING THE RACK
The Rack allows several foods to be cooked or reheated
at one time. However, for the best cooking and reheat-
ing, use the turntable on and the automatic features.
When using the Rack, set time and power level manu-
ally. Allow plenty of space around and between the
dishes. Pay close attention to the cooking/reheating
progress. Reposition the foods and reverse them from
rack to turntable at least once during any cooking or
reheating time. Using a lower power level will assist in
better cooking/reheating uniformity.
AVOID:
• Storing the Rack in the oven when not in use.
• Popping popcorn on the turntable with the Rack in
the oven.
• Using any browning dish on the Rack.
• Using special features with the Rack. Special fea-
tures are designed to be used with foods only on
the revolving turntable.
• Cooking directly on the Rack—use microwave-safe
cookware.
MANUAL DEFROST
If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the
SuperDefrost or CompuDefrost Chart or is above or
below the limits in the “Amount” column on the
SuperDefrost or CompuDefrost Chart, you need to
defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previ-
ously cooked, by using Power Level 3. Follow the
exact 3-step procedure found under Time Cooking
above. Estimate defrosting time and press 3 for 30%
when you select the power level.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the
rule of thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound.
For example, defrost 4 minutes for 1 pound of frozen
spaghetti sauce.
Always stop the oven periodically to remove or sepa-
rate the portions that are defrosted. If food is not
defrosted at the end of the estimated defrosting
time, program the oven in 1 minute increments on
Power Level 3 until totally defrosted.
When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost
only long enough to remove from the plastic in order
to place in a microwave-safe dish.
