ANSWERS
No. If you remove or turn over the turntable, you will get poor
cooking results. Dishes used in your oven must fit on the
turntable.
You can use a rack only if the rack is supplied with your
microwave oven. If you use a rack not supplied with the
microwave oven, you can get poor cooking performance and/or
arcing.
You can use aluminum foil for shielding (use small, flat pieces),
small skewers, and shallow foil trays (if tray is not taller than
1.9 cm [
3
⁄4 inch] deep and half filled with food to absorb
microwave energy). Never allow metal to touch walls or door.
Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise or counterclockwise,
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 may hear the sound of the transformer when the
magnetron tube cycles on.
As the food becomes hot it will conduct the heat to the dish.
Be prepared to use hot pads to remove food after cooking.
“Standing time” means that food should be removed from the
oven and covered for additional time to allow it to finish
cooking. This frees the oven for other cooking.
Steam is normally produced during cooking. The microwave
oven has been designed to vent this steam out the vents.
Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn following
manufacturer’s guidelines or use the preset POPCORN pad.
Do not use regular paper bags. Use the “listening test” by
stopping the oven as soon as the popping slows to a “pop”
every 1 or 2 seconds. Do not repop unpopped kernels. Do not
pop popcorn in glass cookware.
