jars–are able to explode and should not be heated in this oven. Such use of
the oven could result in injury.
Do not mount this appliance over a sink.
Do not store anything directly on top of the microwave oven surface when the
microwave oven is in operation.
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.
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.
It is important to keep the area clean where the door seals against the
microwave. Use only mild, non-abrasive detergents applied with a clean sponge
or soft cloth. Rinse well.
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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Advantium Oven
WARNING!
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
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.
ARCING FOODS
4
Arcing can occur during both speedcooking and microwave cooking. If you see arcing, press the CLEAR/OFF pad and correct the problem.
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.
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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Advantium Oven
WARNING!
Microwavesafe cookware
The turntable must always be in place when
using the oven. The clear glass tray should always be in
place when microwaving.
6
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.”
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
How to test for a microwave-safe dish.
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 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.
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.
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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Advantium Oven
WARNING!
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.
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
Most pacemakers are shielded from interference from electronic products, including microwaves. However, patients with pacemakers may wish to consult their physicians if they have concerns.

Getting to know Advantium
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.
Turntable The turntable rotates to ensure even cooking.
Controls The oven control contains preset recipes. Turn and press dial makes
menu selection easy.
Halogen Lamp and Ceramic Heaters One 500 watt halogen bulb and one 700 watt
ceramic heater cook food
from above. One 375 watt ceramic heater cooks food from below.
Rear Convection Heat Element Operates when using bake.
Microwave A microwave “boost” is automatically added with certain foods. The
oven can also be used as a 975 watt microwave oven.

POWER TEMP
OPTIONS
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.
5. 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.
Follow these general guidelines when selecting the best U= and L= settings for your favorite recipes:
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).

Things that are normal
Cooking Times
When speedcooking preprogrammed foods, you may see OPTIMIZING COOK TIME in the
display several seconds after you press START/PAUSE. The oven automatically
senses the electrical voltage level in your home and adjusts the cooking time
up or down for proper cooking.
Fan/Vent
The fan will be on during cooking. At the end of cooking, the automatic fan
may continue to run for a short time, and the display will read Oven is
Cooling. The fan will automatically shut off when the internal parts of the
oven have cooled.
The oven vent will emit warm air while the oven is on.
Lights
When the oven is on, light may be visible around the door or outer case.
The halogen lights will dim and cycle on and off during a speedcook cycle,
sometimes even at full power levels. This is normal. The oven senses the heat
level and adjusts automatically.
Oven Heat
No preheating time is required during Speedcook cycles. The oven begins
cooking immediately.
The door and inside of the oven will be very hot. Use caution when opening the
door and removing food.
Do not use cookware or coverings made of paper, plastic, or foil when cooking
during a speedcook cycle.
When cooking for an extended period of time, the oven may automatically reduce
the power levels to maintain the appropriate level of oven heat.
Sounds
Clicks and a fan blowing are normal sounds during cooking. The relay board is
turning components on and off.

Baking, Broiling and Toasting
Advantium Oven
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.
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.
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!

Defrosting tips
Microwaving
Advantium Oven
Use DEFROST BY FOOD TYPE for meat, poultry and fish. Use DEFROST BY TIME for
most other frozen foods.
Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be time defrosted in the package, but
foods should be taken out of the package when using DEFROST BY FOOD TYPE.
Closed packages should be slit, pierced or vented after food has partially
defrosted. Plastic storage containers should be partially uncovered.
Family-size, prepackaged frozen dinners can be defrosted and microwaved. If
the food is in a foil container, transfer it to a microwave-safe dish.
Foods that spoil easily should not be allowed to sit out for more than one
hour after defrosting. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful
bacteria.
For more even defrosting of larger foods, such as roasts, use DEFROST BY TIME.
Be sure large meats are completely defrosted before cooking.
When defrosted, food should be cool but softened in all areas. If still
slightly icy, return to the microwave very briefly, or let it stand a few
minutes.

Microwave sensor cooking
Microwaving
Advantium Oven
The sensor feature detects the increasing humidity released during cooking.
The oven automatically adjusts the cooking time to various types and amounts
of food.
Do not use the Sensor Features twice in succession on the same food portion–
it may result in severely overcooked or burnt food. If food is undercooked
after the first countdown, use COOK BY TIME for additional cooking time.
The proper containers and covers are essential for best sensor cooking.
Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with lids or vented
plastic wrap. Never use tight sealing plastic containers–they can prevent
steam from escaping and cause food to overcook.
Be sure the outside of the cooking containers and the inside of the oven are
dry before placing food in the oven. Beads of moisture turning into steam can
mislead the sensor.
Beverages are best heated uncovered.
Covered Vented Dry off dishes so they don’t mislead the sensor.

Advantium’s microwave mode features sensor cooking. The oven automatically
senses when food is done and shuts itself off–eliminating the need to program
cook times and power levels.
1. Press the COOK pad and turn the dial to COOK BY FOOD TYPE. Press the dial
to enter. Or press the REHEAT pad.
2. Turn the dial to select the food you want. Press the dial to enter.
3. Press the dial or press the START/ PAUSE pad to start cooking.
Do not open the oven door until time is counting down in the display. If the
door is opened, close it and press START/PAUSE immediately. If the food is not
done enough, use COOK BY TIME in the microwave selector to cook for more time.
NOTE: Do not use the Sensor Features twice in succession on the same food
portion–it may result in severely overcooked or burnt food.
If you have been speedcooking and the oven is already hot, it may indicate
that it is too hot for sensor cooking. Of course, you can always continue with
COOK BY TIME or SPEEDCOOK.
NOTE: If the oven is too hot then it will automatically change to time
cooking.
To shorten or lengthen the cook time, wait until the time countdown shows in
the display. Then turn the dial to add or subtract time.
If you open the door while SENSOR Cooking, SENSOR ERROR will appear. Close the
door, press START/PAUSE to begin again.
Notes about the Reheat program:
Reheated foods may have wide variations in temperature. Some areas may be
extremely hot.
It is best to use COOK BY TIME and not REHEAT for these foods:
Bread products
Food that must be reheated uncovered.
Foods that need to be stirred or turned.
Foods calling for a dry look or crisp surface after reheating.
Things that are normal
Interference
TV/radio interference might be noticed while using the microwave. Similar to
the interference caused by other small appliances, it does not indicate a
problem with the microwave. Move the radio or TV as far away from the
microwave as possible, or check the position of the TV/radio antenna.
Lights
The oven cavity light will come on during a microwave cooking cycle.
Oven Heat
Cookware may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated food. Oven
mitts may be needed to handle the cookware.
Steam or vapor may escape from around the door.

Helpful hints
How to clean the inside
Removable turntable
Care and Cleaning
Advantium Oven
An occasional thorough wiping with a solution of baking soda and water keeps
the inside fresh. Be certain the oven control is turned off before cleaning
any part of this oven.
Clean the inside of the oven often for proper heating performance.
Some spatters can be removed with a paper towel, others may require a warm
soapy cloth. Remove greasy spatters with a sudsy cloth, then rinse with a damp
cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or sharp utensils on oven walls.
Never use a commercial oven cleaner on any part of your oven.
Do not clean the inside of the oven with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break
off the pad, causing electrical shock.
Walls, Floor, Inside Window, Metal and Plastic Parts on the Door
The area underneath the turntable should be cleaned frequently to avoid odors
and smoking during a cooking cycle.
The turntable can be broken if dropped. Wash carefully in warm, sudsy water.
Dry completely and replace.
To replace the turntable, place its center over the spindle in the center of
the oven and turn it until it seats into place. (Make sure the smooth side of
the turntable is facing up and that its center seats securely on the spindle.)
Turntable
Do not use the oven without the turntable in place.

Cooking trays and baking sheet
How to clean the outside
Stainless steel (on some models)
Care and Cleaning
Advantium Oven
To prevent breakage, allow the trays to cool completely before cleaning. Wash carefully in warm, sudsy water or in the dishwasher.
Do not use metal scouring pads or abrasives, as they may damage the finish. A soap-filled scouring pad may be used to clean the trays.
Clear glass tray for microwaving
Non-stick metal tray for speedcooking
Put food directly on the aluminum baking sheet on the wire oven rack, and
place them on the non-stick metal
tray, when baking on two levels, broiling or
toasting foods.
We recommend against using cleaners with ammonia or alcohol, as they can
damage the appearance of the oven. If you choose to use a common household
cleaner, first apply the cleaner directly to a clean cloth, then wipe the
soiled area.
Case
Clean the outside with a sudsy cloth. Rinse and then dry. Wipe the window
clean with a damp cloth.
Glass Control Panel and Door (on some models)
Wipe with a clean damp sponge. Dry thoroughly. Do not use cleaning sprays,
large amounts of soap and water, abrasives or sharp objects on the panel–they
can damage it.
Door Seal
It’s important to keep the area clean where the door seals against the oven.
Use only mild, non-abrasive detergents applied with a clean sponge or soft
cloth. Rinse well.
To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy water or a stainless
steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe the surface in the direction of the
grain. Follow the cleaner instructions for cleaning the stainless steel
surface.
To inquire about purchasing stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish, or to
find the location of a dealer nearest you, please call our toll-free number,
