Calibration The actual convection cooking temperature may be calibrated higher or lower than the displayed temperature. For example, if you want the microwave oven to be a bit hotter, you may try setting the calibration to +10°. Touch SETUP/CLOCK to reach the Calibration submenu. Use number pads to select temperature variations in degrees Fahrenheit: 1= ±0° (reset to default), 2= +5° (+2.8°C), 3= +10° (+5.6°C), 4= +15° (+8.3°C), 5= +20° (+11.1°C), 6= -5° (-2.8°C), 7= -10° (-5.6°C), 8= -15° (-8.3°C) and 9= -20° (-11.1°C). Features Demo Mode Activate to practice using the control without actually turning on the magnetron. Touch SETUP/CLOCK to reach the Demo Mode submenu, and follow the prompts to activate. The DEMO icon will light up in the display. Repeat to deactivate. Convection Element and Fan The convection element and fan are embedded in the wall of the microwave oven cavity, behind the metal screen. Grill Element Depending on your model, the grill element has either one 1,000W halogen bulb and one 500W quartz bulb, or two 600W quartz bulbs. The halogen bulb glows very brightly, but the quartz bulb has a very faint glow that might not be visible. Accessories Cooking Rack Use the rectangular cooking rack only for 2-level cooking. To avoid damage to the microwave oven, always remove rack after 2-level cooking. To avoid damage to the microwave oven due to soil buildup, clean rack supports often. Turntable Turntable may be turned off (on some models) for manual cooking only. This is helpful when cooking with plates that are bigger than the turntable, or when cooking with plates that are side by side. Turntable cannot be turned off during preset or sensor (on some models) functions. Crisp Pan Use the provided crisp pan for pan-frying (browning). NOTE: To avoid arcing and damage to the crisp pan, do not use it with convection or grill racks. Grill Rack Use the tall grill rack for grilling. Place food directly on the grill rack. Use a microwave-safe, ovenproof dish or pan under the rack to catch the drippings. Convection Rack Use the short convection rack for convection cycles (baking or roasting). Place cookware directly on rack for bake functions and for some roast functions. Some roast functions require that the food be placed directly on the rack. Use a microwave-safe, ovenproof dish or pan under the rack to catch the drippings. Steamer Vessel Use the steamer vessel base, insert and lid for steaming, or use just the base and lid for simmering.
