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 ang interior area
of the oven; allow sufficient time for
cooling first.
[] Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
Arcing can occur during both speedcooking and microwave cooking. If _tou see arcing,
press the CLEAR/OFF pad and correct the oroblem.
Arcing is the microwave term for sparks
in the oven. Arcing is caused bg:
[] Metal or foil touching the side of
the oven.
[] Foil not molded to food (upturned
edges act like antennas).
[] Use foil only as recommended in
this manual.
[]
Cook meat and poultrg thoroughlg-
meat to at least an INTERNAL
temperature of Z60°F, and poultr U to
at least an INTERNAL temperature of
Z80°F. Cooking to these temperatures
usuallg protects against foodborne
illness.
[]
Potentiallg hot surfaces include the
oven door, floor, walls, oven rack and
turntable.
[] Metal cookware 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.
[] Recycled paper towels containing small
metal pieces being used in the oven.

When microwaving, place all foods and
containers onthe clear glasstrag.
[]
Do not pop popcorn in your oven unlessJn
a special microwave popcorn accessorg or

[]
Do not boil eggs in this oven. Pressure will
build up inside egg golk and will cause it to
burst, possibly resulting in injury.
[]
Do not operate the oven without food
inside. This nag 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 golks should be pierced to allow steam
to escape during cooking.
[] SUPERHEATED WATER
Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea, are
able to be overheated beyond the boiling
point without appearing to be boiling. Visible
bubbling or boifing when the container is
removed from the microwave oven is not
always present. THISCOULD RESULTIN

"suitable for microwaving."
[]

the dish. Microwave 30-45 seconds
at high. If the dish heats, it should not
be used for microwaving.
If the dish remains cool and only the
water in the cup heats, then the dish
is microwave-safe.
[]
Cookware may become hot because
of heat transferred from the heated food.
Oven mitts may be needed to handle the
cookware.
[] Do not use recycled paper products.
Recycled paper towels, napkins and
waxed paper can contain metal flecks
which may cause arcing or ignite.
Paper products containing nylon or
nylon filaments should be avoided,
as they may also ignite.
[] Use foil only as directed in this manual.
When using foil in the oven, keep the foil
at least 1" away from the sides of the
oven.
[]
Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.
[]
If you use a meat thermometer while
cooking, make sure it is safe for use
in microwave ovens.
[] Some styrofoam trays (like those that
meat is packaged on) have a thin strip
of metal embedded in the bottom. When
microwaved, the metal can burn the floor
of the oven or ignite a paper towel.
[] Paper towels, waxed paper and plastic
wrap can be used to cover dishes in
order to retain moisture and prevent
spattering. Be sure to vent plastic wrap
so steam can escape.
[] Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use
in microwave ovens. Check the package
for proper use.
[] "Bailable" cooking pouches and tightly
closed plastic bags should be slit, pierced
or vented as directed by package. If they
are not, plastic could burst during or
immediately after cooking, possibly
resulting in injury. Also, plastic storage
containers should be at least partially
uncovered because the U form a tight
seal. When cooking with containers
tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove
covering carefully and direct steam
away from hands
and face.
[] Plastic cookware-Plastic cookware
designed for microwave cooking is very
useful, but should be used carefully. Even
microwave-safe plastic may not be as
tolerant of overcooking conditions
as are glass or ceramic materials and
may soften or char if subjected to short
periods of overcooking. In longer
exposures to overcooking, the food
and cookware could ignite.
Follow these guidelines:
1. Use microwave-safe plastics only
and use them in strict compliance
with the cookware manufacturer's
recommendations.
2. Do not microwave empty containers.
3. Do not permit children to use plastic
cookware without complete supervision.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
[]
Don't defrost frozen beverages in []
narrow-necked bottles (especially
carbonated beverages). Even if the
container is open, pressure can build up. []
This can cause the container to burst,
possibly resulting in injury.
[]
Foods cooked in liquids (such as
pasta) may tend to boil more rapidly
than foods containing less moisture.
Should this occur, refer to the Care
and Cleaning of the oven section for
instructions on how to clean the
inside of the oven.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Advantium Oven
Do not overcook potatoes. They could
dehydrate and catch fire, causing
damage to your oven.
Avoid heating baby food in glassjars,
even with the lid off. Hake sure all infant
food is thoroughly cooked. Stir food to
distribute the heat evenly. Be careful to
prevent scalding when warming formula.
The container may feel cooler than the
formula really is. Always test the formula
before feeding the baby.
[] Do not attempt to deep fry in the oven.
Notice--
Pacemakers
[] Hot foods and steam can cause
burns. Be careful when opening any
containers of hot food, including popcorn
bags, cooking pouches and boxes. To
prevent possible injury, direct steam
away from hands and face.
[] Host pacemakers are shielded from
interference from electronic products,
including microwaves. However, patients
with pacemakers may wish to consult their
physicians if they have concerns.

What is Advantium?
Advantium Oven
Getting to know
Advantium
The new 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
"microwave boost" is added with
certain foods. Foods cook evenly and
fast, retaining their natural moisture.
