heated or reheated and ready to
serve at the same time.

from the cookbook which came
with your oven. It is important to
arrange foods properly, and this is
shown on the next page. Cookware

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.

foods heated together with your
oven shelf, especially when heating
larger amounts of food. Extra steam
generated from multiple food

than with regular microwaving.

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 1cup 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.
Use wax paper or plastic wrap
instead of lids on casseroles. Lids
may add too much height to dish.

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.
