IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Advantium Oven
WARNING!
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
■Do not operate the oven without the turntable in place. The turntable must be unrestricted so it can turn.
■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.
■Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
■Cook meat and poultry thoroughly— meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F, and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.
■Potentially hot surfaces include the oven door, floor, walls, oven rack and turntable.
ARCING
Arcing can occur during both speedcooking and microwave cooking. If you see arcing, press the CLEAR/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.
■Metal cookware used during either speedcook or microwave cooking (except for the pans provided with the oven).
■Metal, such as
■Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being used in the oven.
FOODS
■When microwaving, place all foods and containers on the clear glass tray.
■Do not pop popcorn in your oven unless in a special microwave popcorn accessory or unless you use popcorn labeled for use in microwave ovens.
■Do not boil eggs in this oven. Pressure will build up inside egg yolk and will cause it to burst, possibly resulting
in injury.
■Do not operate the oven without food inside. This may cause damage to the oven. It increases the heat around the magnetron and can shorten the life of the oven.
■Foods with unbroken outer “skin” such as potatoes, hot dogs, sausages, tomatoes, apples, chicken livers and other giblets, and egg yolks should be pierced to allow steam to escape during cooking.
■SUPERHEATED WATER
Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea, are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
