PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
(a)Do Not Attempt to operate this oven with the door open since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks.
(b)Do Not Place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
(c)Do Not Operate the oven if it is damaged.
It is particularly important that the oven door close properly and that there is no damage to the:

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Ensure proper ground exists before use.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

ŶUse care when cleaning the vent fan filters. Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based oven cleaners, may damage the filters.
ŶWhen preparing flaming foods under the Advantium, turn the fan on.

Cooking Tips
Your oven uses microwave energy to cook by a set time or weight, or automatically by sensor. Sensor microwave works by detecting the increasing humidity released during cooking. The oven automatically adjusts the cooking time to various types and amounts of food.

Using the Dial
You can make selections on the oven by turning the dial and pressing it to enter the selection.
Pressing the dial can also be used in place of the
START/PAUSE EXWWRQ IRU TXLFNHU SURJUDPPLQJ RI WKH oven.
Power Level
The power level may be entered or changed immediately after entering the time for Time Cook, Time Defrost or Express Cook. The power level may also be changed during time countdown.

2.Press the POWER button.
3.Turn the dial clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to decrease the power level. Press the dial to enter.
4.Press the START/PAUSE button to start cooking.
Variable power levels add flexibility to microwave cooking. The power levels on the microwave oven can be compared to the surface units on a range. Each power level gives you microwave energy a certain percent of the time. Power level 7 is microwave energy 70% of the time. Power level 3 is energy 30% of the time. Most cooking will be done on High (power level 10) which gives you 100% power. Power level 10 will

A lower setting will cook more evenly and need less stirring or rotating of the food. Some foods may have better flavor, texture or appearance if one of the lower settings is used. Use a lower power level when cooking foods that have a tendency to boil over, such as scalloped potatoes.
Rest periods (when the microwave energy cycles off)
