Beyond Microwaving

5. Beyond Microwaving

Your Beyond Microwave Oven takes you beyond simple reheating and defrosting to fully automated microwave cooking. Your Beyond Microwave Oven is pre-programmed to perfectly prepare over 4000 different kinds of packaged foods. This feature takes the guesswork out of microwaving foods that require multiple power settings and cooking times.

When you use the oven’s scanning wand to scan the barcode (UPC) on a package of micro- waveable food, the oven searches its database for the corresponding cooking instructions and then programs itself for the correct time and power setting. The oven’s display window displays the cooking time and prompts by flashing in the display window to perform the steps indicated on the package, ie. stir, turn, uncover, etc.

NOTE:

•The Beyond Microwave Oven recognizes the barcodes of most national brands of microwaveable foods. It may not recognize the barcodes of local brands, in-store, boutique, or distributor foods.

•Please refer to the instructions in Using the Learn Function on page 17 for instructions on programming new barcodes and cooking instructions into your oven’s memory.

More About Beyond Microwaving

When you scan the barcode on a package of food, the Beyond Microwave Oven searches its database of over 4000 barcodes. Each barcode in the oven’s memory has a corresponding set of cooking instructions. If the oven finds the barcode in its memory, it automatically programs itself to cook the food. At this point, the display window will prompt you to press START.

If the oven cannot find a barcode, the message NOT IN MEMORY appears on the display window. When this happens, you may opt to use the Learn function (see page 17) to manually program the cooking instructions and save them in the oven’s memory. The oven will always “remember” this barcode in the future and program itself according to your instructions.

When individual packages of food with a UPC number are packaged inside of a larger package also with a UPC number, either number may be scanned.

What is the Home Hub?

The Home Hub, disguised as a stylish CD player/clock-radio/alarm clock, is actually the central command center for all the Beyond Appliances in your home. Beyond Appliances exchange information with the Home Hub automatically, “behind the scenes” without any extra effort on your part. They communicate with each other using the existing electrical wiring in your home.

The Home Hub communicates with the Beyond Information Network via an Internet connection to bring you the local weather forecast, financial quotes, news, and family calendar reminders.

The Home Hub also retrieves new or favorite food cooking programs and sends them to your microwave oven and other beyond appliances.

Any barcodes you scan that are not already in the oven’s memory are sent to the Beyond Information Network test kitchens so that we can research the best cooking method. The more products you scan, the smarter and more customized your oven becomes!

Programming Your Home Code Selector

The Home Code is a unique identifier that your Home Hub uses to recognize the Beyond

Appliances in your home.
