The wire shelf is specifically
designed for added capacity heating
and reheating in your microwave
oven. More than one food may be
heated or reheated and ready to
serve at the same time.
When microwaving with the oven
shelf, some techniques will differ
from the cookbook which came
with your oven. It is important to
arrange foods properly, and this is
shown on the next page. Container
size is important; select from
among the suggestions below. Also,
food size should be considered;
foods over 4 inches high, or 3 %
pounds are not recommended for
shelf cooking.
Batters and dough foods and also
uncooked foods which need to be
prepared from scratch should be
cooked without the oven shelf,
following cookbook directions.
Use pot holders when handling
foods heated together with your
oven shelf, especially when heating
larger amounts of food. Extra steam
generated from multiple food
cooking may make containers hotter
than with regular microwaving.

shelf to cook more than one food
at the same time, turn the oven
off. Make sure the shelf is
positioned right-side-up on all
four shelf supports and not
touching oven walls.
