IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
cooking or oven thermometers when
cooking by microwave. The metal and
mercury in these thermometers could
cause arcing and possible damage to
the oven. Do not use a thermometer
in food you are microwaving unless
the thermometer is designed or
recommended for use in the microwave
oven.
Do not clean with metal scouring pads.
Pieces can burn off the pad and touch
electrical parts involving risk of electric
shock.
Do not store any materials, other than our
recommended accessories, in this oven
when not in use.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or
counter.
Keep power cord away from heated
surfaces.
Do not immerse power cord or plug in
water.
Do not operate the oven without the
turntable in place. The turntable must
be unrestricted so it can turn.
Arcing can occur during both speedcooking and microwave cooking. If you see arcing,
press the Cancel/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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Advantium Oven
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.
Potentially hot surfaces include the
oven door, floor, walls, oven rack and
turntable.
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.
Do not store anything directly on top of
the microwave oven surface when the
microwave oven is in operation.
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
Per USDA, cook meat to an INTERNAL
temperature of at least 160°F, and
poultry to an INTERNAL temperature
of at least 180°F. Cooking to these
temperatures usually protects
against foodborne illness. For more
information, see www.foodsafety.gov.
Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or
gold-rimmed dishes, in the oven.
Metal cookware or the wire oven
rack used during either speedcook or
microwave cooking (except for the pans
provided with the oven).
Recycled paper towels containing small
metal pieces being used in the oven.
