AUIUWATXCFM FEATURE Cooking appliances installed under the oven might, under some heavy usage conditions, cause temperatures high enough to overheat some internal parts of the microwave oven. To prevent overheating fim taking place, the exhaust fkn is designed to automatically turn on at low speed if excessive temperatures occur. Should this happen, the fan cannot be manually turned off, but it will automatically turn off when the internal parts have cooled. The fm may stay on up to approximately 30 minutes after the range and microwave oven controls have been turned off.

To re-enter, touch CLEAR/OFF pad and begin again. Q Are there any f~ I can’t ‘IkmpCook? A. Yes. Delicate butter icings, ice cream, frozen whipped toppings, etc. soften rapidly at warm temperatures. Batters, doughs and frozen foods are also difficult to cook precisely with the probe. It’s best to time cook these foods. Q Why did “PRC)BE” flash on the display after I touched the SIART pad? A. “PROBE” will flash if you don’t seat the cable end of the probe securely into the receptacle in the oven wall or if you touch the TEMP COOWHOLD pad and forget to use the probe.

To install Guide to Use of the Oven Shelf Cookware for Shelf Heating and Reheating .U~pOt~whenkidlhg metal shelf and cookware. They may be hot. The two position wire shelf is specifically designed fbr added capacity heating and mkating in w Spl=mak@ miclwwmemen. More than one fd maybe heated or reheated and ready to serve at the same time. When microwaving with the oven shelf, some techniques will differ from the cookbook which came with your oven. It is important to arrange fds properly, and this is shown on the next page. Cookware size is important; select from among the suggestions at right. Also, fbod size should be considered; foods over 3% inches high, or 3 pounds are not recommended for shelf cooking. Batters and dough foods and also uncooked fti which need to be prepared from scratch should be cooked without the oven shelf, following cookbook directions. Use pot holders when handling fbods heated together with your oven shelf, especially when heating larger amounts of fd in 8-inch square or other 2-quart size casseroles. Extra steam generated from multiple fd cooking may make cookware hotter than with regular microwaving. Ibsitiming the Shelf Bdbre placing hod in the dishes, checktoseethatthey will fittogedwr on or under the shelf. Also, be sure cookware is microwave safe. Cookware for heating or reheating include 1 cup measuring cup, 8x4x3-inch loaf dishes, 9x5x3inch loaf dishes or 9-inch pie plates. To insert shelf, tip the back slightly and fit the shelf support guides onto the support guides located on each side of rear oven wall. Next, lower the front until the shelf support guides fit onto the support @ales l&ated at each side of-~e oven in the tint. When properly positioned, the shelf should fit snugly in place. I .1 /Shelf has two positions. Use in low position when heating two casseroles or reheating frozen TV dimers or entrees. I Leftovers may be placed in small individual ceramic or plastic bowls or divided plates. Use wax paper or plastic wrap instead of lids on casseroles. Lids may add too much height to dish. 1+ The high shelf position more evenly spaces the area above and below the shelf. Use this position for heating plates of leftovers. When properly positioned, the shelf should fit snugly in place, be level and not touch the back wail of the oven. If aming occurs when using the shelf to cook more than one fti atthesame~ tumthe~ti. Make sure the shelf is positioned securely on all four sheifsupports and not touching oven walls. HowtoHeatorReheat Similarljq)esof Fd Twoplatesofleftovel% maybe reheatedtogether.

Continue microwaving at High (10) for 2 to 3 minutes. Continue heating, if necessary, until hot. Reheating two casseroles (height should be less than31% inches) is possible. Cover with plastic wrap. Use staggered arrangements of fd, placing food on right side of shelf and left side of floor. Refer to Heating or Reheating Guide in cookbook for suggested microwave time per casserole and add the times together. Microwave at High (10)reversing position of foods (top to bottom) after half of time. Also, heat several small bowls of leftovers this way, stirring and reversing positions after half of time. .

Reverse positions (top to bottom) and rotate foods 1/2 turn. Continue microwaving at High (10)for 7 minutes. Check dimers for heating.

HmvtoReheat SeveralDMkrentTjq? esofl!bodsZbgether When heating several different types of food together, foods which should be served hot must be placed on the oven shelf, while fbods which are OIllywarmed should be placed on the floor. This is because micruwaveenergy enters the oven from the top only. Also, it is important to remember that fbods absorb microwaveenqy at diflixent rates. Rates can be aflixtd bythesizeofthe food, and its starting temperature. Because of the varying rates, you mayneedtostartreheating alarge or dense fbod a &w minutes ahead of time, then add other smaller or less dense foods. Alternately, if oneofthefbods youareheating seems undercooked but the others am heated satisktorily, let the underheated food continue cooking.

Place on shelf large or dense foods which need the most heating, such as leftover fried chicken, casseroles of canned or leftover vegetables, rice or pasta. Place on oven floor those foods which need only be warmed, such as bakery pies, rolls, muffins or breads. Questions?
