INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT YOUR OVEN
NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish
could be placed in the oven. The turntable will turn both clockwise and anticlockwise.
The shelf gives you the option to reheat more than one dish of food at the same time. To reheat on 2
levels:
Switch places after ½ the time.
Make sure the shelf is positioned properly inside the microwave to prevent damage to the oven
from arcing.
Do not use a microwave browning dish on the shelf. The shelf could overheat.
Do not use the oven with the shelf on the microwave floor. This could damage the microwave.
Use pot holders when handling the shelf-it may be hot.
Do not use the shelf when cooking popcorn.
ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and the moisture in food will
influence the amount of moisture that condenses in the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause
as much condensation as uncovered ones. Ventilation openings must not be blocked.
In using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before the minimum time and add
time accordingly.
ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING
Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.
Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed.
Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper,
microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent
overcooking before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.
Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if possible.
Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and
hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once.
Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom and from
the center of the dish to the outside.
Add standing time. Remove food from oven and stir, if possible. Cover for standing time that
allows the food to finish cooking without overcooking.
Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking temperatures have been reached.
Doneness signs include:
