ANSWERS
No. If you remove or turn over the turntable, you
will get poor cooking results. Dishes used in you
oven must fit on the turntable.
Yes. Use the Bi-Level Cooking Shelf provided
with your oven.
Useable metal includes aluminum foil for
shielding (use small, flat pieces), small skewers
and shallow foil trays (if tray is %I inch deep and
filled with food to absorb microwave energy).
When grilling, use the specially designed
CRISPWARETM Crisper Pan that comes with
your oven. Never allow metal to touch walls or
door. (For more information, see page 45.)
Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise or counter-
clockwise, depending on the rotation of the
motor when the cooking cycle begins.
This appearance is normal and does not affect
the operation of your oven.
You hear the sound of the transformer when the
magnetron tube cycles on.
As food becomes hot it will conduct the heat to
the dish. Also, when grilling keep in mind that thl
CRISPWARETM Crisper Pan is made of a
special material that absorbs microwave energy
making the pan very hot for browning. Be
prepared to use hot pads to remove food after
cooking and grilling.
The grill element was burning off the factory
coating used during manufacturing.
“Standing time” means that food should be taker
out of the oven and covered for additional time
after cooking. This process allows the cooking tc
finish, saves energy and frees the oven for
another purpose.
Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn follow-
ing manufacturer’s guidelines or use the
preprogrammed Popcorn pad. Do not use
regular paper bags. Use the “listening tesr by
stopping the oven when the popping slows to a
ypop” every one or two seconds. Do not try to
repop unpopped kernels. You can also use
special microwave poppers. When using a
popper, be sure to follow manufacturer’s direc-
tions. Do not pop popcorn in glass utensils or on
plastic Bi-Level Cooking Shelf.
