How to Use the Double Duty'" Shelf
Do
not store
or
cook
with
shelf on floor of oven. Product
damage may result.
Use potholders when handling
metal shelf and cookware. The~
may belot.
Do not store microwave
browning dish on metal shelf.
The wire shelf is specifically
designed for added capacit~heating
and reheating in your microwave
oven. Now more than one food may
be 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 foods properly (shown on
the next page). Cookware size is
important; select from among the
suggestions below. Also, food size
should be considered; foods over
4 inches high, or 3 % pounds are not
recommended for shelf cooking.
Batters and dough foods and also
uncooked foods which need to be
prepared from scratch should be
cooked without the oven shelf,
following cookbook directions. . . .. ..
Use pot holders when handling
foods heated together with your
oven shelf, esp~cially when heating
larger amounts of food. Extra steam
generated from multiple food
cooking may make cookware hotter
than with regular microwaving.
Cookware for Shelf
Heating and Reheating
Before placing food in the dishes,
check to see that they will fit
together on or under the shelf. Also,
be sure cookware is microwave safe.
Cookware for heating or reheating
include 1 cup measuring cup, 9x5x3-
inch loaf dishes or 9-inch pie plates.
Leftovers may be placed in small
individual ceramic or plastic bowls
or divided plates.
I
Use wax paper or plastic wrap
instead of lids on casseroles. Lids
may add too much height to dish.
Positioning the Shelf
To position the DOUBLE DUTYTM
shelf, tip the back slightly and fit the
shelf support guides
onto the
support
guides located on each side of the
oven in the rear.
Next, lower the front until the shelf
support guides fit onto the support
guides located at each side of the
oven in the front.
When the shelf is properiy
positioned, you should be able to
read the plastic tab that says FRONT
THIS SIDE UP. The shelf should fit
snugly in place, be level and not
touch the back wall of the oven.
If arcing occurs when using the
shelf to cook more than one food
at the same time, turn the oven
off. Make sure the shelf is
positioned right-side-up
on
all four shelf supports and
not touching oven walls.
