PARTS AND FEATURES
This manual may cover several different models. The model you
have purchased may have some or all of the features shown here.
The appearance of your particular model may differ slightly from
the illustrations in this manual.
Turntable
The turntable can rotate in either direction to help cook food
more evenly. Do not operate the microwave oven without having
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 microwave 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.
Turning Off the Turntable
The turntable can be turned off for manual cooking cycles only.
This is helpful when cooking with plates that are larger than the
turntable, or when cooking with 2 plates that are side by side.
To Turn Off: Touch TURNTABLE ON-OFF. A “turntable off” icon
will appear in the display. The turntable will turn back on
automatically when cooking is over or CANCEL OFF is touched.
Cooking Rack
The 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 microwave oven. See “Assistance or Service” section to
reorder rack.
