 Do not mount this appliance over

a sink.

 This oven is not approved or tested for

marine use.

 This oven is UL listed for standard wall

installation.

 Do not operate this appliance if it has

been damaged or dropped.

 As with any appliance, close supervision

is necessary when used by children.

 Use this appliance only for its intended use

as described in this manual.

 Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors

in this appliance.

 This oven is specifically designed to heat,

dry or cook food, and is not intended for laboratory or industrial use.

 Do not store anything directly on top

of the microwave oven surface when the microwave oven is in operation.

 This appliance must only be serviced

by qualified service personnel. Contact nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.

 Do not cover or block any openings on

the appliance.

 Do not store this appliance outdoors.

Do not use this product near water— for example, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, near a sink or in similar locations.

 See door surface cleaning instructions in

the Care and Cleaning of the Oven section

of this manual.  To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity: — Do not overcook food. Carefully attend

appliance when paper, plastic or other

combustible materials are placed inside the

oven while microwave cooking. — Remove wire twist-ties and metal handles

from paper or plastic containers before

placing them in the oven. — Do not use the oven for storage purposes.

Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils

or food in the oven when not in use. — If materials inside the oven ignite, keep

the oven door closed, turn the oven off and

shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker

panel. If the door is opened, the fire may

spread. — Do not use the Sensor Features twice

WARNING!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons, or exposure to excessive microwave energy:

Advantium Oven

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!

 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.

 Keep the oven free from grease buildup.

 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.

 Potentially hot surfaces include the

oven door, floor, walls, oven rack and turntable.

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).

 Use foil only as recommended in

this manual.

 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.

ARCING

Arcing can occur during both speedcooking and microwave cooking. If you see arcing, press the CLEAR/OFF pad and correct the problem.

Advantium Oven

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 When microwaving, place all foods and

containers on the clear glass 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.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!

 Place food or microwavable container

directly on the clear glass tray to cook your food.

 Use of the non-stick 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 may contain metal flecks which could 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.

 “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 turntable must always be

in place when using the oven.

The clear glass 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.”

a microwave-safe dish.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

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.

NOTICE–PACEMAKERS

What is Advantium?

Advantium Oven

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.

Advantium uses power from a high intensity halogen light, ceramic heaters, and microwaves to cook food from the top, bottom, and interior simultaneously to seal in moisture and flavor.

When using the pre-set speedcook recipes on the food menu, the power levels are already selected for you. However, these power levels can be adjusted before or during cooking. See POWER/TEMP in the Cooking Controls section. The custom speedcook feature allows you to speedcook items not on the pre-set food menu by selecting your own cook time and power level settings.

Each power level gives you heater power and microwave energy for a certain percentage of the time.

UPPER POWER (U) controls both the upper heater and microwave power. A higher UPPER POWER setting will utilize more upper heater power, browning food faster on top. A lower UPPER POWER setting utilizes more microwave power, causing food to cook more evenly throughout.

Select a higher setting for foods such as pizza and baked goods. Select a lower setting for foods such as casseroles, meat and fish.

LOWER POWER (L) controls the lower heater.

Select a higher setting to brown foods more on the bottom. Select a lower setting for less browning on the bottom.

1. Press the SPEEDCOOK pad and turn the dial to select FOOD MENU or FAVORITE RECIPES, or press CUSTOM SPEEDCOOK to manually set power level and timer. Press the dial to enter.

2. Turn the dial to select a food, time or power level as prompted. Press the dial to enter.

3. To change the power level when prompted by the display, turn the dial clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to decrease the upper power level. Press the dial to enter.

4. Microwave levels are set automatically based on the upper and lower lamp settings.

Press the START/PAUSE

pad

or the

selector dial to start cooking.

If you do not want to change one of the settings, just press the dial to move to the next selection.

NOTE: Be careful when adjusting power levels so that you do not over- or undercook food.

U = Select a higher setting for

thin foods requiring a golden brown top (example: fish fillets, toast, boneless chicken breasts). Select a lower setting for thicker foods and foods with high sugar or fat content (example: cakes, roasts).

L = Select a higher setting for thick

or dense foods that may not cook quickly in the center (example: casseroles). Select a lower setting for thin foods (example: cookies) and foods containing high fat or sugar content (example: pastry, cakes).

Follow these general guidelines when selecting the best U= and L= settings for your favorite recipes:

How to Bake

How to Broil or Toast

Baking, Broiling and Toasting

Baking allows you to cook foods the same way as a conventional oven, using a heating element to raise the temperature of the air inside the oven. Any oven temperature from 250°F to 450°F may be set.

Broiling allows you to broil foods in the same way as a conventional oven.

Toasting allows you to toast foods the same way as a conventional oven.

A fan gently circulates heated air throughout the oven, over and around the food. Because the heated air is kept constantly moving, not permitting a layer of cooler air to develop around the food, some foods cook slightly faster than in regular oven cooking.

Before you begin, make sure the turntable is in place. Use the non-stick metal tray at all times when baking.

CAUTION!When baking, remember that

the oven, door and dishes will be very hot!

The turntable must

always be in place when

using the oven.

Put food or oven-safe cookware

directly on the non-stick

metal tray to bake.

Put food directly on the aluminum baking sheet on

the wire oven rack, and place them on the non-stick

metal tray, when broiling or toasting foods.

For two-level baking, place food in a metal baking

dish or directly on the non-stick metal tray. Place

the aluminum baking sheet or your baking dish

with food on top of the wire rack. Stand the rack

with food on the metal tray.
