Speedcook Power Level
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 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.

utilize more upper heater power, browning food faster

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