How to Use the Shelf When
Microwaving
Food microwaves best when placed on the
turntable or on the shelf in the lower
position.
For best cooking results, remove the shelf
unless you are cooking on two levels.
The lower position provides a flat surface
for placing dishes that may tilt if placed on
the turntable.
The lower position also allows you to place
2 dishes side-by-side. This is helpful for
casseroles or other cookware that may be
too tall to cook on two levels.
The upper position gives you the option to
reheat or cook more than one dish of food
at the same time.
