other giblets, and egg yolks should
be pierced to allow steam m escape

not have metallic trim or glaze with a metallic sheen can be used. Some c_okware is labeled
"suitable /i_r microwaving. "
Place food or microwavable container
directly on the white ceramic tray to
cook your food.
Use of either black metal tray during
microwave cooking will result in
inferior cooking performance.
• If you are not sure ifa 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 3045 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 U'ansferred from the heated
food. Oven mitts may be needed m
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
U'ays less than 3/4" high; remove the
mp 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 thmrnometer 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 injm y.
Also, plastic storage containers should
be at least partially uncovered because
they foFm 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
desi_md 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.
I_bllow these guidelines:
1. Use microwave-safe plastics only
and use them in strict compliance
with the cookware manufacturer's
recommendations.
.
3.
Do not microwave empty containers.
Do not permit children to use
plastic cookware without complete
supmwision.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Advantium Oven
A WARNING!
SAFE TY PRE CA UTIONS
• Don't defi'ost fi'ozen 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 injmy.
• Spontaneous boiling--Under certain
special circumstances, liquids may
start to boil dining or shortly after
removal fi'om the oven. To prevent
burns fl'om splashing liquid, we
recommend the following: before
removing the container from the oven,
allow" the container to stand in the
oven for 30 to 40 seconds after the
oven has shut off. Do not boil liquids
in nan'ow-necked containers such as
soft drink bottles, *vine flasks and
especially narrow-necked coffee cups.
Even if the container is opened,
excessive steam can build up and
cause it to burst or overflow.
Foods cooked in liquids (such as
pasta) may tend m boil more rapidly
than foods containing less moisture.
Should this occur, refer m 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 fi'om 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
walxning folxnula. The container may
feel cooler than the folxnula really is.
Always test the formula before feeding
the baby.
• Do not attempt m deep fit in the oven.

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 primal y som'ce 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.
Halogen Lamps
• Two 1500 watt halogen bulbs cook food fl'om above.
• One 1500 watt halogen bulb cooks food fi'om below.
Microwave
• A microwave "boost" is automatically added with certain foods.
• The oven can also be used as a 950 watt microwave oven.
Grill
• The oven emits air fl'om the lower grill area.

power level
Advantium uses power from
high intensity halogen lights and
microwaves to cook food from
the top, bottom and interior
simultaneously to seal in
moisture and flavor.
When using the pre-set menu foods,
the power levels are already selected
for you. However, power levels can
be adjusted when cooking both pre-
set menu foods and manual cooking.
Each power level gives you halogen
lamp power and microwave energy
for a certain percentage of the time.
U=07 Upper halogen lamp on
70% of the time.
L=07 Lower halogen lamp on

Defrosting
tips
Use A UTD I)EFROST"Jbr meat, poultry
and fish. Use TIME DEFI_OST fi)r most
oth_J_ozen fi)ods.
• Foods frozen in paper or plastic
can be time defi'osted in the
package, but foods should be
taken out of the package when
using DEFROST (AUTO). Closed
packages should be slit, pierced or
vented after food has partially
defrosted. Plastic storage
containers should be partially
uncovered.
• Family-size, prepackaged fi'ozen
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
DEFR OST (A UTO). Be sure large
meats are completely defrosted
before cooking.
• When defrosted, food should be
cool but softened in all areas.
If still slightly icy, retm'n to the
microwave vel y briefly, or let
it stand a few minutes.
