Speedcook Power Levels

Advantium uses power from a high-intensity halogen light, ceramic heaters, and microwaves to cook food from the top, bottom, and interior simultaneously, sealing in moisture and flavor.

When using preset Speedcook recipes on the food menu, power levels are preselected. However, these power levels can be adjusted before or during cooking. Also, the manual cook feature allows you to speed cook items not on the preset food menu by selecting your own cook time and power level settings.

Each power level alternates heater power and microwave energy throughout the cook time. Percentage times of each power source vary, dependant upon which power level has been selected. The halogen light and ceramic heaters will cycle on and off during a speedcook cycle, even when full power has been selected.

UPPER POWER (U) controls both the upper heating assembly and microwave power. A higher UPPER POWER setting will utilize more upper heater power, browning food faster on top. A lower UPPER POWER setting utilizes more microwave power, causing food to cook more evenly throughout. Select a higher setting for such foods as pizza and baked goods. Select a lower setting for foods such as casseroles, meats, and fish.

LOWER POWER (L) controls the lower heater. Select a higher setting to brown foods more on the bottom. Select a lower setting for less browning on the bottom.

Refer to the Speedcook Power Level Chart in this chapter for specific power source operating percentages.

Upper Heaters

The upper heating assembly consists of a 500 watt halogen heater and a 700 watt ceramic heater. The halogen and ceramic heaters provide radiant heat, which browns the outside of the food while sealing in moisture and flavor. These heaters only operate in the speedcook mode and always cycle on and cycle off at the same time.

The convection heater, located at the rear of the oven, operates when using bake mode.

Lower Heater

The lower heater is a 375 watt ceramic heater. It operates in speedcook, oven/bake, and warm modes. The lower heater assists in browning foods on the bottom.

Microwave Energy

Caution: When cooking in Microwave mode, always use the glass tray.

The Advantium 120 provides 975 watts of microwave power, which is delivered directly into the oven cavity to work independently, or in conjunction with other cooking cycles. As the food rotates on the oven turntable, microwave energy is evenly distributed to all portions of the food.

Sensor Cooking

Advantium’s Microwave mode features sensor cooking, which automatically selects cook times and power levels. A humidity sensor detects the increasing humidity released during cooking, senses when the food is done, and shuts the oven off at the appropriate time. Sensor cooking is not available for 5 minutes immediately following Speedcook.

Voltage Compensation

Note: Voltage compensation only occurs when using a preselected menu item in Speedcook. These items require compensation for accurate and consistent cooking results.

Voltage fluctuations in the power supply can cause inconsistencies in cooking. The main PCB measures line voltage at the start of each Speedcooking selection and adjusts the cooking time to achieve consistent results. Optimal line voltage, where no voltage compensation occurs, is 120 VAC. Above 120 VAC, time is subtracted from the recipe. Below 120 VAC, time is added to the recipe. The amount of voltage compensation required is dependent upon the incoming voltage at the start of the cooking cycle and the particular speedcooking selection that is chosen.
