or ceramic cookware, if needed.

are normal
When speedcooking pre-set menu 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.
Cooling Fans
The fans will be on during cooking. At the
end of cooking, the fans may continue
to run for a short time to cool internal
components. The fans will automatically
shut off when the internal parts of the oven
have cooled. The screen will display "Oven
is Cooling".
The oven vent will emit warm air while
the oven is on.
The exhaust fan may come on
automatically if the oven becomes hot. See
Automatic fan section.
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.
The turntable must always be in
place when using the oven.

Speedcooking

Advantium Oven
Put food directly on the metal
tray to speedcook.
Speedcooking meats in the oven may
produce smoke.
To cook for additional time after a cooking
cycle has been completed, use the Resume
feature as instructed on the display.
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. Be cautious of steam
or vapor that may escape from around the
door.
Do not use cookware or coverings made
of paper, plastic, or foil when speedcooking.
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 electronic
control is turning components on and off.
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.
