UNPACKING AND EXAMING
YOUR OVEN
1. Remove all packing materials from inside the
oven cavity. Do not remove the Waveguide Cover, which is located on the right cavity wall.
Read and SAVE this Use and Care Guide.
2. Remove the feature sticker, if there is one, from
the outside of the door.
Check the oven for any damage, such as
misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals
and sealing surfaces, broken or loose door
hinges and latches and dents inside the cavity
or on the door. If there is any damage, do not
operate the oven and contact your dealer or
ELECTROLUX AUTHORIZED SERVICER.
CHOOSING A LOCATION
FOR YOUR OVEN
You will use your oven frequently, so plan its
location for ease of use. The oven must be
placed on a countertop which is a minimum of
36 inches from the floor. Allow at least 2 inches
on the sides, top and at the rear of the oven for
air circulation.
Your oven can be built into a cabinet or wall by
itself or above any electric wall oven or warming
drawer.

Grounding Instructions
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 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp. or
more protected electrical supply. It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this appliance be provided.
The Convection Microwave Oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding
plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed
and grounded. Should you only have a 2-prong outlet, have a qualified
electrician install a correct wall receptacle.
A 3-prong adapter may be purchased and used temporarily if local codes
allow. Follow package directions.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risk of becoming entangled
in or tripping over a longer cord.
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 Convection Microwave Oven. The marked rating of
the extension cord should be AC 115-120 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.
RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE
Should there be any interference caused by the Convection Microwave Oven to your radio or TV, check
that the Convection Microwave 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.
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 Convection Microwave
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.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and the moisture in food will
influence the amount of moisture that condenses in
the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause
as much condensation as uncovered ones. Vents
on the oven back must not be blocked.
7
After using convection, automatic mix or broil, you
will hear the sound of the cooling fan. The fan may
continue to operate as long as 5 minutes, depending on the oven temperature.
Be aware that, unlike microwave-only ovens,
convection microwave ovens have a tendency to
become hot during convection, automatic mix and
broil cooking.
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not
be used to dry clothes or newspapers.
Your microwave output is rated 900 watts using the
IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package
directions, check food at 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.

using microwave-only cooking.
Electrolux is not responsible for any damage to the oven when accessories are used.
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 Stailp3-2(n)-5mpre4uta gari74(e)1(r )-2.26460.2 ils
• 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.
