QUESTION
ANSWER
Can I use a rack in my microwave oven
so that I may reheat or cook in two rack
positions at a time
It is recommended that while using the microwave
mode to cook or reheat, place food on the turn table
only.
The metal rack provided along with the microwave
oven (* Select models) is not to be used in the
microwave mode.
Only use the rack that is supplied with your microwave
oven in the grill, combination or convection mode.
Use of any other rack can result in poor cooking
performance and/or arcing and may damage your
oven.
Can I use either metal or aluminum
pans in my microwave oven?
Usable metal includes aluminum foil for shielding (use
small, flat pieces).
Never allow metal to touch the walls or door

What are the humming noises I hear
when my microwave oven is operating?

Why does the dish become hot when I
microwave food in it?

oven for a short period of time after the cooking is over

try to repop unpopped kernels.
Why does steam come out of the air
exhaust vent?
