How to Use the Double DutyTMShelf

. Do not store or cook with shelf on floor of oven. Product damage may result.

Use potholders when handling metal shelf and cookware. They may be hot.

Do not store microwave browning dish on metal shelf.

s Use of DOUBLE DUTYTMshelf with Automatic Cooking is not recommended.

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. Cookware size is important; select from among the suggestions below. Also, food size should be considered; foods over4 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.

Cookware for Shelf Heating and Reheating

Before placing food in the dishes, check to see that they will fit together on or under the shelf. Also, be sure cookware is microwave safe.

Cookware for heating or reheating include 1 cup measuring cup, 9x5x3-inch loaf dishes or 9-inch pie plates.

Leftovers may be placed in small individual ceramic or plastic bowls or divided plates.

Positioning the Shelf

To position the DOUBLE DUTY~ shelf, tip the back slightly and fit the shelf support guides onto the support guides located on each side of the oven in the rear.

Next, lower the front until the shelf support guides fit onto the support guides located at each side of the oven in the front.

When properly positioned, the shelf should fit snugly in place, be level and not touch the back wall of the oven.

.

If arcing occurs when using the 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.

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 cookware hotter than with regular microwaving.

Use wax paper or plastic wrap instead of lids on casseroles. Lids may add too much height to dish.
