Crumb Tray
Grasp the handle at the front of the oven and pull out the crumb tray. Dispose of
crumbs and wash the tray in warm, sudsy water. Remove stubborn spots with a
nylon mesh pad. Be sure to dry thoroughly before slipping the Tray back into the
oven.
Cooking Containers
1. The inside dimensions of this Oven are 10-5/16" x 11" x 6" This size allows for
many different types of baking containers. Keep interior dimensions in mind
when purchasing cooking containers.
2. Metal, ovenproof glass without lids or ceramic bakeware may be used in your
oven. Follow manufacturer's instructions. Be sure the edge of the container and
the food being cooked is at least 1" (2.54 cm) away from upper heating
elements.
3. Some frozen foods are packaged in paper or plastic containers suitable for
microwave or regular ovens. Do not use paper or plastic containers in the
Infrawave™ Oven. Simply transfer food to an Infrawave™ Oven compatible
container: If there are any questions regarding the use of a specific container,
contact the food manufacturer.
4. Some items which should never be used in your Oven:
• Glass lids on glass or metal bakeware. (If a cover is needed, use aluminum foil
and be careful that it does not touch the heating elements.)
• Air-tight packages such as sealed pouches or cans.
• Plastic wrapping such as oven roasting bags or paperboard covers.
• Containers larger than those recommended.
• Containers with warnings against use in range-type or toaster ovens.
A few notes on your Infrawave™ Speed Cooking Countertop Oven:
• During cooking, the interior lights will cycle on and off. This is because the
Infrawave™ Oven doesn't cook by a specific temperature. It cooks by cycling
its heater lights on and off.
• A beep will sound when pressing most control panel buttons.
• Since infrared waves can go through glass, cooking can be improved with an
oven-safe, glass dish.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Cooking Problem
Food is cooking too quickly.
When I open the oven door
to check on food, the heating
cycle seems to stop.
Sometimes when I'm cooking,
I notice smoke from the surface
of the pan.
When I make a casserole, it tends
to brown too quickly on the top.
I want to adjust the number
of minutes my food has left to
cook, but I've already
started the cooking process.
I can't find the exact food I want
to cook in the selection menu.
Solution
Because the Infrawave™ Oven cooks
food quickly, you may want to use
default cooking times the first time
you cook a dish.
If the oven door is opened during the
cooking cycle, heaters will pause.
To resume cooking, close oven door
and PRESS the Start/Stop button.
When using non-stick sprays, butter
or margarine for cooking, you may
notice a small amount of smoke and
browning. This occurs because these
coatings will cook first.
NOTE: Always start with a clean tray,
pan or aluminum foil since any baked
on food residue will also cause
smoke.
With deep-dish casseroles (including
lasagne), the top may brown more
quickly than with conventional ovens.
Place a piece of aluminum foil over
your casserole dish during the
cooking process and remove it at the
end of the cooking cycle.
During cooking, you can adjust the
cooking time with the Up and Down
arrows.
Choose the food that is closest to the
one you want to cook.
