Getting to Know Your Microwave-Convection Hood Combination

Using the metal rack

The Metal Rack (Part No. 4359242) gives you extra space when cooking in more than one container at the same time. The metal rack must not be turned upside-down on the bottom of the oven. You can also use the Metal Rack for convection cooking (see pages 49, 52, and 53).

If you need a replacement rack and your KitchenAid dealer does not stock the rack, you can order it, by part number, by calling
