Speedcook power level Speedcooking Advantium Oven The Advantium uses power from high intensity halogen lamps, a ceramic heater, a convection system and microwaves to cook food from the top, bottom and interior simultaneously to seal in moisture and flavor. When using the pre-set menu foods, the power levels are already selected for you. However, power levels can be adjusted when using pre-set menu foods and CUSTOM SPEEDCOOK. Each power level gives you halogen lamp or ceramic heater power and microwave energy for a certain percentage of the time or provides heating from the convection system. For example: U-07 Upper halogen lamp on 70% of the time. L-07 Lower ceramic heater on 70% of the time. C-06 Convection element heats oven to 350ºF. M-05 Microwave on 50% of the time. NOTE: Be careful when adjusting power levels so that you do not over- or undercook food. 1. Press the SPEEDCOOK pad and select your food (follow instructions from Using the pre-set speedcook menu). 2. When display shows ADJUST TIME or START, press the POWER LEVEL pad. If you do not want to change one of the settings, just press the dial to move to the next selection. 3. Turn the dial clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to decrease the upper power level. Press the dial to enter. 4. Turn the dial to change the lower power level. Press the dial to enter. 5. Turn the dial to change the microwave power level. Press the dial to enter. 6. Turn the dial to change the convection power level. Press the dial to enter. 7. Press the START/PAUSE pad or the selector dial to start cooking. Follow these general guidelines when selecting the best U=, L=, M= and C= settings for your favorite recipes: U = Select a higher setting for thin foods requiring a golden brown top (example: fish fillets, toast, boneless chicken breasts). Select a lower setting for thicker foods and foods with high sugar or fat content (example: muffins, roasts, casseroles) or that require a longer cook time. L = Select a higher setting for thick or dense foods that may not cook quickly in the center (example: steaks, casseroles). Select a lower setting for thin foods (example: cookies). M = Select a higher setting to shorten cooking time for dense or heavy foods (example: casseroles, whole chicken). Select a lower setting for delicate foods (example: breads) or foods requiring longer cook times for tender results (example: stew, pot roast). C = Select a lower setting for more delicate foods that cook at lower temperatures. Select a higher setting (6 or above) for more robust foods or foods that cook at temperatures above 350ºF. 13

Speedcook
power level
The Advantium uses power from high
intensity halogen lamps, a ceramic
heater, a convection system and
microwaves to cook food from the top,
bottom and interior simultaneously to
seal in moisture and flavor.
When using the pre-set menu foods,
the power levels are already selected
for you. However, power levels can be
adjusted when using pre-set menu
foods and CUSTOM SPEEDCOOK.
Each power level gives you halogen
lamp or ceramic heater power and
microwave energy for a certain
percentage of the time or provides
heating from the convection system.
For example:
U–07
Upper halogen lamp on
70% of the time.
L–07
Lower ceramic heater on
70% of the time.
C–06
Convection element heats
oven to 350ºF.
M–05
Microwave on 50% of the
time.
NOTE:
Be careful when adjusting
power levels so that you do not
over- or undercook food.
