THE TURNTABLE SHOULD ALWAYS BE ON WHEN USING THE SPECIAL
FEATURES. On/Off function can be used with manual cooking modes and
Reheat. Turntable off condition will automatically change to on condition
when you select auto cooking except Reheat and Convec Bake.
When cooking large quantities of food which cannot be stirred, it is best to
use a lower power level such as 40% or 50%. You may speed cooking of
large amounts by programming 5 to 10 minutes on 100% power (HIGH)
followed by the desired time on lower power. See page 36 for how to program
multiple sequences. You may wish to reverse a large casserole once during
cooking; simply open door, reposition casserole, close door and touch Start/
Touch On.
