Glass turntable

Glass turntable
Do not operate the microwave oven unless the
glass turntable is securely in place. Cooking
efficiency will be reduced. Also, arcing (sparking
and crackling) can occur, causing black marks in
the oven cavity.
Make sure glass turntable is correct-side up in
oven. Carefully place cookware on glass turn-
table to avoid possible breakage.
Handle glass turntable with care when
removing from oven to avoid possible breakage.
If glass turntable cracks or breaks, contact your
Whirlpool dealer for a replacement.
When a browning dish is used, the browning
dish bottom must be at least 3/16 inch above the
glass turntable. If your browning dish is not
elevated on feet, set it on a microwave-safe plate
before using. Follow directions supplied with
browning dish.
