Using the Rack

The rack allows several foods to be cooked or reheated at 

one time. However, for the best cooking and reheating, use 

Turntable ON function and cook with SENSOR COOKING or 

AUTO COOKING without the rack. When the rack is used, set 

time and power level manually. Allow plenty of space around 

and between the dishes. Pay close attention to the cooking 

and reheating progress. Reposition the foods and reverse 

them from the rack to turntable and/or stir them at least 

once during any cooking or reheating time. After cooking 

or reheating, stir if possible. Using a lower power level will 

assist in better cooking and reheating uniformity.

Avoid:

•  Storing the rack in the microwave oven when not in 

use.

•  Popping popcorn with the rack in the microwave oven.
•  Using any browning dish on the rack.
•  Using SENSOR COOKING and AUTO COOKING with the 

rack.

•  Cooking directly on the rack—use microwave-safe 

cookware.

Time Cooking

Your Over the Range Microwave Oven can be programmed 

for 99 minutes 99 seconds (99.99). Always enter the seconds 

after the minutes, even if they are both zeros.

To Set Power Level

There are eleven preset power levels.
Using lower power levels increases the cooking time which 

is recommended for foods such as cheese, milk and long 

slow cooking of meats. Consult cookbook or recipes for 

specific recommendations.

NOTE

Turntable on/off function can be used in Manual Operation.
