Answers

ANSWERS

You can use a rack only if the rack is supplied with your microwave oven. Use of any rack not supplied with the microwave oven can result in poor cooking perfor- mance and/or arcing.

Useable metal includes aluminum foil for shielding (use small, flat pieces), small skewers, and shallow foil trays (if tray is ?4 inch deep and filled with food to absotb microwave energy). Never allow metal to touch walls or door. (For more information, see page 53.)

This appearance is normal and does not affect the operation of your oven.

You hear the sound of the transformer wher the magnetron tube cycles on.

As the food becomes hot it will conduct the heat to the dish. Be prepared to use hot pads to remove food after cooking.

“Standing time” means that food shoukf be taken out of the oven and covered for addi- tional time after cooking. This process al- lows the cooking to finish, saves energy, and frees the oven for another purpose.

Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn following manufacturer’s guidelines or use the preprogrammed Popcorn pad. Do not use regular paper bags. Use the “listening test” by stopping the oven as soon as the popping slows to a “pop”every one or two seconds. Do not try to repop unpopped kernels. You can also use special micro- wave poppers. When using a popper, be sure to follow manufacturer’s directions. Do not pop popcorn in glass utensils.

Steam is normally produced during cooking. The microwave oven has been designed to vent this steam out the top vent.
