In contrast, microwave ovens utilizing this microwave system deliver the selected power level continuously. This constant stream of microwave power helps to minimize overcooking of foods and messy food spatters.

Sensor Cooking

The microwave system features sensor cooking functions. A humidity sensor in the oven cavity detects moisture and humidity emitted from food as it heats. The sensor adjusts cooking times to various types and amounts of food. Sensor cooking takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.

Grill Element

12

1.Halogen bulb

2.Quartz bulb

The oven uses a 1,000-watt halogen bulb with a 500-watt bulb to serve as the grill element for various cooking functions.

When the element is in use, the halogen bulb glows very brightly, while the glow of the quartz bulb is barely – if at all – visible. (See “Troubleshooting” for quartz bulb testing.) The oven cavity and door will become hot. The use of oven mitts is recommended.

Turntable

4.Shaft

The turntable can rotate in either direction to help cook food more evenly. Do not operate the oven without the turntable in place. See “Assistance or Service” to reorder any of the parts.

To Install:

1.Remove tape from the hub.

2.Place the support on the oven cavity bottom.

3.Place the turntable on the support.

Fit the raised, curved lines in the center of the turntable bottom between the three spokes of the hub. The rollers on the support should fit inside the turntable bottom ridge.

To Turn Off:

The turntable can be turned off (except during an auto function). This is helpful when cooking with plates that are larger than the turntable or when cooking with two 10¼ in. (26 cm) plates that are side by side.

To Turn Off: Press TURNTABLE ON/OFF button.

“TURNTABLE OFF” will appear in the display. The turntable will turn back on automatically when cooking is over or when OFF/ CANCEL is pressed.

Cooking Rack

The rectangular cooking rack is ideal for two-level cooking. It provides extra cavity space for cooking 2 or more containers at the same time. Insert the rack securely into the rack supports on the side walls of the oven. See “Assistance or Service” to order replacement parts.

■Rack will become hot. Always use oven mitts or pot holders when handling.

■Do not allow the rack to touch the inside cavity walls, ceiling or floor.

■Do not store the rack in the oven. Damage to the oven could result if someone accidentally turns on the oven.

■Use the rack only when cooking on 2 levels.

■Do not use metal cookware, utensils, or a browning dish with the rack.

■Do not let food container on rack touch the top or sides of the oven.

■Do not use Browning Pan on rack.

■Remove rack before using Grill function.

■Remove rack before using Popcorn function.

■Do not cook food directly on the rack. Always use a microwave-safe container.

■The rack is designed specifically for this oven. Do not attempt to use any other rack (besides those supplied with the oven) in this oven.

■Clean rack supports often (see “General Cleaning” section). Damage to the oven could result due to soil buildup.
