For most cooking, the turntable should be on; however
the turntable can be turned off so that it does not rotate
when extra large dishes, such as the popular 13 x 9 x 2
glass utility casserole, are used. The casserole should
be placed on the turntable so that it is level.
The display indicates when the turntable is off.The
door can be opened for checking food and the
turntable will stay in the off position. After checking,
close door and touch START
All special features can only be used with the turntable
on. When the turntable is set in the off position, only
manual operation can be used except for the Reheat
function which can be used for both options.
When cooking large quantities of food which cannot
be stirred, it is best to use a lower power level such
as 40% or 50%. You may speed cooking for large
amounts by programming 5 to 10 minutes on 100%
power (HIGH) followed by the desired time on
lower power. See page 15 for how to program multiple
sequences. You may wish to reverse a large casserole
once during cooking; simply open door, reposition
casserole, close door and touch START.

USING THE RACK
The Rack allows several foods to be cooked or
reheated at one time. However, for the best cooking
and reheating, use the turntable on and the automatic
features.
When using the Rack, set time and power level
manually. Allow plenty of space around and
between the dishes. Pay close attention to the cooking/
reheating progress. Reposition the foods and reverse
them from rack to turntable at least once during any
cooking or reheating time. Using a lower power level
will assist in better cooking/reheating uniformity.
AVOID:
• Storing the Rack in the oven when not in use.
• Popping popcorn on the turntable with the Rack in
the oven.
• Using any browning dish on the Rack.
• Using special features with the Rack. Special
features are designed to be used with foods only
on the revolving turntable.
• Cooking directly on the Rack—use microwave-safe
cookware.
