ARCING
• Do not operate the oven without
the turntable in place. The turntable
must be unrestricted so it can turn.
During and after use, do not touch, or
let clothing or other flammable materials
contact any interior area of the oven;
allow sufficient time for cooling first.
• Potentiallg hot surfaces include the
oven door, floor, walls, oven rack and
turntable.
Arcing can occur during both speedcooking and microwave cooking. If gou see arcing,
press the CLEAR/OFF pad and correct the problem.
Arcing is the microwave term for sparks
in the oven. Arcing is caused bu:
• Metal or foil touching the side of
the oven.
• Foil not molded to food (upturned edges
act like antennas).
• Use foil onlg as recommended in
this manual.
• Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
• Cook meat and poultru thoroughly-
meat to at least an INTERNAL
temperature of 160°F, and poultry to
at least an INTERNALtemperature of
180°F. Cooking to these temperatures
usuallu protects against foodborne
illness.
Metal cookware or the wire oven rack
used during either speedcook or
microwave cooking (except for the pans
provided with the oven).
• Metal, such as twist-ties, poultrg pins,
or gold-rimmed dishes, in the oven.
• Recucled paper towels containing small

burst, possibly resulting in injury.
• Do not operate oven without food inside.
This may cause damage to the oven. It
increases the heat around the magnetron
and can shorten the life of the oven.
• Foods with unbroken outer "skin"
such as potatoes, hot dogs, sausages,
tomatoes, apples, chicken livers and other
giblets, and egg yolks should be pierced to
allow steam to escape during cooking.

Getting to Know the Advantium
Advontium Oven
Getting to know
the Advontium
The Advantium oven uses
breakthrough Speedcook technology
to harness the power of light. The
Advantium oven cooks the outside
of foods much like conventional
radiant heat, while also penetrating
the surface so the inside cooks
simultaneously.
While halogen light is the primary
source of power, a convection system
and ceramic heater assist in the
cooking, with a "microwave boost"
added in some cooking algorithms.
Food cooks evenly and fast, retaining
its natural moisture.
rii)[ ] [ ][ ] Fii-q
The Advantium oven is capable of
speedcooking, convection baking,
broiling, toasting, warming, proofing
and microwaving. The Speedcook
feature is the biggest benefit of the
Advantium oven.
8
No preheating ts required to
speedcook. Place the food in the
oven and start cooking immediately.
You see timesaving because there is
no preheat and because speedcook
cooks faster.
