Grounding Instructions
Receptacle Box Cover
3 Pronged Plug
(6-15P)
3 Pronged Receptacle
(6-15R)
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
WARNING – Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The electrical requirements are a 240 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15
amp. protected electrical supply. It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided. The
240 volt circuit is absolutely necessary for optimum cooking
performance.
The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must
be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed
and grounded.
EXTENSION CORD
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding
plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the high speed oven. The marked rating of the
extension cord should be AC 240 volt, 15 amp. or more.
Be careful not to drape the cord over the countertop or table where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over accidentally.
NOTES:
1. If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician
or service person.
2. Neither Electrolux nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury
resulting from failure to observe the correct electrical connection procedures.
7
RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE
Should there be any interference caused by the high speed oven to your radio or TV, check that the high
speed oven is on a different electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from the oven as feasible
or check position and signal of receiving antenna.

Information You Need To Know
ABOUT YOUR OVEN
This Use and Care Guide is valuable: read it carefully and always save it for reference.
The Electrolux High Speed Convection Microwave
Cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it frequently
for cooking principles, techniques, hints and
recipes.
NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support
nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could
be placed in the oven. The turntable will turn both
clockwise and counterclockwise.
ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb
the microwave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%,
you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It
is normal for the exterior of the oven to be warm
to the touch when cooking or reheating.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave
cooking. Room humidity and the moisture in
food will influence the amount of moisture that
co ndenses in the oven. Generally, covered
foods will not cause as much condensation as
uncovered ones. Vents on the oven back must
not be blocked.
After using, the cooling fan may come on to cool
the oven cavity. The display will show NOW COOLING, and you will hear the sound of the fan.
Unlike microwave-only ovens, your oven may
become hot during cooking. Be cautious.
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not
be used to dry clothes or newspapers.
The microwave capability of your oven is rated
1000 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure.
In using microwave-only recipes or package
directions, check food a minute or two before the
minimum time and add time accordingly.
ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING
• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas
towards outside of dish.
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest
amount of time indicated and add more as
needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke
or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or
cookbook for suggestions: paper towels, wax
paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers
prevent spattering and help foods to cook
evenly.
• Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil
any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent
overcooking before dense, thick areas are
cooked thoroughly.
• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once
or twice during cooking, if possible.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to
speed cooking of such foods as chicken and
hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be
turned over at least once.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway
through cooking both from top to bottom and
from the center of the dish to the outside.
• Add standing time. Remove food from oven
and stir, if possible. Cover for standing time
which allows the food to finish cooking without
overcooking.
• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that cooking temperatures have been
reached.
Doneness signs include:
- Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
- Center bottom of dish is very hot to the
touch.
- Poultry thigh joints move easily.
- Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
- Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a
fork.

DISH CHECK If you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and
microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. If the dish becomes very hot, do NOT use it for microwaving.
AUTOMATIC COOKING Use the recommended container in the cooking chart in this operation manual,
cookbook and display.
ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully
before you purchase so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in
determining correct doneness and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures when
using microwave-only cooking.
Electrolux is not responsible for any damage to the oven when accessories are used.
CAUTION When using ROAST or during automatic cooking, some metal baking utensils may cause
arcing when they come in contact with the turntable, oven walls or accessory racks. Arcing is a discharge
of electricity that occurs when microwaves come in contact with metal.
If arcing occurs, place a heat resistant dish, such as a Pyrex pie plate or oven-glass plate, between the
pan and the turntable or rack. If arcing continues to occur, discontinue using that pan.

Information You Need To Know
ABOUT SPEED COOKING AND CONVECTION COOKING
• The oven cabinet, cavity, door, accessories and
dishes will become hot. To PREVENT BURNS,
use thick oven gloves when removing the food
or turntable from the oven.
• When preheating, the turntable can be left in
or removed. When using the high rack for 2
shelf baking in a preheated oven, it is easier
to remove the turntable for preheat. Place high
rack on turntable along with foods. When
preheat is over, open oven door and quickly
place turntable, high rack and foods to be baked
inside.
ABOUT SAFETY
• Check foods to see that they are cooked to
the United States Department of Agriculture’s
recommended temperatures.
TEMP FOOD
160˚F For fresh pork, ground meat, boneless
white poultry, fish, seafood, egg dishes
and frozen prepared food.
165˚F For leftover, ready-to-reheat refriger-
ated, and deli and carry-out “fresh”
food.
170˚F White meat of poultry.
180˚F Dark meat of poultry.
To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in
a thick or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER
leave the thermometer in the food during cooking,
unless it is approved for microwave use.
• ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when
handling utensils that are in contact with hot
food. Enough heat from the food can transfer
through utensils to cause skin burns.
• Do not cover turntable, low rack or high rack
with aluminum foil. It interferes with air flow that
cooks food.
• Round pizza pans are excellent cooking utensils
for many items. Choose pans that do not have
extended handles.
• Using a preheated low rack can give a grilled
appearance to steaks and hot dogs.
• Avoid steam burns by directing steam away
from the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest
edge of a dish’s covering and carefully open
popcorn and oven cooking bags away from
the face.
• Stay near the oven while it’s in use and check
cooking progress frequently so that there is no
chance of overcooking food.
• NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or
other items.
• Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve its high quality and minimize the spread
of foodborne bacteria.
• Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can
cause arcing and/or fires.
• Use care when removing items from the oven
so that the utensil, your clothes or accessories
do not touch the safety door latches.
• Keep aluminum foil used for shielding at least
1 inch away from walls, ceiling and door.
