SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons, or exposure to excessive microwave energy:
4
WARNING!
Do not operate the oven without the oven rack (turntable) in place. The oven rack (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.
Do not store anything directly on top of the oven surface when the oven is in operation.
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly— meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F, and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
Potentially hot surfaces include the
oven door, floor, walls and oven rack (turntable).
The fan will operate automatically under certain conditions (see the Automatic Fan section). Take care to prevent the starting and spreading of accidental cooking fires while the vent fan is in use.
Clean the underside of the oven often. Do not allow grease to build up on the oven or the fan filters.
In the event of a grease fire on the surface units below the oven, smother a flaming pan on the surface unit by covering the pan completely with a lid, a cookie sheet or a flat tray.
Use care when cleaning the vent fan filters. Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based oven cleaners, may damage the filters.
When preparing flaming foods under the oven, turn the vent fan on.
Never leave surface units beneath your oven unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite and spread if the oven vent fan is operating. To minimize automatic fan operation, use adequate sized cookware and use high heat on surface units only when necessary.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is caused by:
Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.
Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennas).
Metal cookware used during either speedcook or microwave cooking (except for the pans provided with the oven).
Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold-rimmed dishes, in the oven.
Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being used in the oven.
Use foil only as recommended in this guide.
ARCING
Arcing can occur during both speedcooking and microwave cooking. If you see arcing, press the CLEAR/OFF pad and correct the problem.
THE VENT FAN
5
WARNING!
When microwaving, place all foods and containers on the glass microwave tray.
Do not pop popcorn in your oven unless in a special microwave popcorn accessory or unless you use popcorn labeled for use in microwave ovens.
Do not boil eggs in this oven. Pressure will build up inside egg yolk and will cause it to burst, possibly resulting in injury.
Do not operate the 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.
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 boiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
— Do not overheat the liquid.
— Stir the liquid both before and halfway
through heating it.
— Do not use straight-sided containers with
narrow necks.
— After heating, allow the container to
stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the container.
— Use extreme care when inserting a
spoon or other utensil into the container.
The oven and door will get very hot when speedcooking or using the oven/bake feature.
Cookware will become hot . Oven mitts will be needed to handle the cookware.
Do not use coverings, containers or cooking/roasting bags made of foil, plastic, wax or paper when speedcooking.
Do not cover the oven rack (turntable), trays or any part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause arcing in the oven.
Use the black metal flat tray in the same way you would use a shallow baking pan or baking tray.
Place food or oven-safe cookware directly on the trays when cooking.
Any oven-safe dish can be used in your oven. Recipes in the Advantium Cookbook were tested in Pyrex
®
and
Anchor Hocking
®
glass cookware and
Corningware
®
ceramic casseroles. Cooktimes and results may vary when using other types of oven-safe dishes. Place them directly on the black metal tray.
Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.
Use of the glass microwave tray with
the speedcook or oven/bake features will result in inferior cooking performance.
FOODS
Oven-safe cookware for Speedcook, Oven/Bake & Warming features
The oven rack (turntable)
must always be in place

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
www.geadvantium.com
WARNING!
Place food or microwavable container directly on the glass microwave tray to cook your food.
Use of the black metal tray during microwave cooking will result in inferior cooking performance.
If you are not sure if a dish is microwave-safe, use this test: Place in the oven both the dish you are testing and a glass measuring cup filled with 1 cup of water—set the measuring cup either in or next to 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 guide. TV dinners may be microwaved in foil trays less than 3/4high; remove the top foil cover and return the tray to the box. When using foil in the oven, keep the foil at least 1 inch 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.
“Boilable” 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 they 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.
Microwave­safe cookware
The oven rack (turntable)
must always be in place
when using the oven.
The glass microwave tray
should always be in place
when microwaving.
Make sure to use suitable cookware during microwave cooking. Most glass casseroles, cooking dishes, measuring cups, custard cups, pottery or china dinnerware which does not have metallic trim or glaze with a metallic sheen can be used. Some cookware is labeled “suitable for microwaving.”

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
www.geadvantium.com
WARNING!
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.
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.
Do not overcook potatoes. They could dehydrate and catch fire, causing damage to your oven.
Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even with the lid off. Make 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.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
PACEMAKERS
All microwave ovens must meet Federal DHHS and FCC requirements. However, the operation of some pacemakers may be affected by microwaves. Cognizant of this problem, most pacemaker manufacturers have taken steps to minimize the susceptibility of their products to external interference, including microwaves. Most new pacemakers (1982 and later) are now protected from microwave interference. However, prior to using your microwave oven it is recommended that persons with pacemakers consult the manufacturer of the device for additional information and/or their physician to ensure their pacemaker will not be affected by microwaves.

Congratulations! You are now part of the cooking revolution!
As part of the vision to help consumers live better, easier lives, GE Appliances introduces the revolutionary GE Advantium oven with Speedcook technology. This new oven roasts, grills, bakes, browns and broils, just like your conventional oven—only faster—and with delicious results. You also save time because Advantium requires no preheating.
The information on the following pages will help you operate and maintain your new Advantium oven. We appreciate your purchase, and hope you will continue to rely on us whenever you need quality appliances for your home. We thank you for buying GE.
Introduction

What is Advantium?

www.geadvantium.com
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 radiant heat is the primary source of power, a “microwave boost” is added with certain foods. Foods cook evenly and fast, retaining their natural moisture.
Turntable
The oven rack (turntable) rotates to ensure even cooking.
Controls
The oven control contains preset recipes.
Turn and press dial makes menu selection easy.
Speedcooking
A 500 watt halogen bulb and a 600 watt ceramic heater cook food from above.
One 375 watt ceramic heater cooks food from below.
The convection fan ensures even heating.
Oven/Bake and Warming
One 1100 watt heater cooks food from above.
One 375 watt ceramic heater cooks food from below.
The convection fan ensures even heating.
Microwave
A microwave “boost” is automatically added with certain foods.
The oven can also be used as a 900 watt microwave oven.
