Bottom feeding technology
Please note that this product uses bottom feeding technology for microwave distribution 
which differs from traditional turntable side feeding methods and creates more useable 
space for a variety of different sized dishes.
This microwave feeding style can give a difference in heating times (in microwave mode) 
when compared against side feeding appliances. This is quite normal and should not cause 
any concern. Please refer to the reheating and cooking charts on pages 76-91.
