i PORTA SAFETY I CTIONS
WARNING
When using electrical appliances, basic safety
precautions should be followed to reduce the risk of
burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons or exposure
to excessive microwave energy:
• READ ALL instructions before using the appliance.
,, READ AND FOLLOW the specific "PRECAUTIONS
TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICROWAVE ENERGY" on page 4.
• This appliance must be grounded. Connect only
to properly grounded outlet. See "GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS" found on page 5.
• Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with
the provided installation instructions.
• Some products such as whole eggs and sealed
containers - for example, closed jars - are able to
explode and SHOULD NOT be HEATED in this
oven.
•Use this appliance ONLY for its intended use as
described in this manual. DO NOT use corrosive
chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This type of
oven is specifically designed to heat, cook or dry food.
It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.
• As with any appliance, CLOSE SUPERVISION is
necessary when used by CHILDREN or INFIRM
PERSONS.
,' DO NOT operate this appliance if it has a damaged
cord or plug, if it is not working properly or if it has
been damaged or dropped.
• This appliance, including power cord, must be
serviced ONLY by qualified service personnel.
Contact nearest Electrolux Authorized Servicer for
examination, repair or adjustment.
,, DO NOT cover or block any vents or openings on

,, DO NOT let cord hang over edge of table or
counter.
• Review the door cleaning instructions on page 32.
,, DO NOT mount over a sink.
,, DO NOT store anything directly on topof the appliance
surface when the appliance is in operation. ]
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
,, DO NOT overcook food. Carefully attend to
appliancewhen paper, plasticor other combustible
materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate
cooking.
• Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags
before placing bag in oven.

ing plug. tt must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
WARNING
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock,
Electrical Requirements
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp. or more protected electrical supply. It is
recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.
The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly
installed and grounded.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

6 Information You Need To Know
About your oven
This Use and Care Guide is valuable: read itcarefully
and always save it for reference.
NEVER use the Convection Microwave Oven without
the turntable and support nor turn the turntable
over so that a large dish could be placed in the
oven. The turntable will turn both clockwise and
counterclockwise.
ALWAYS have food in the Convection Microwave
Oven when it is on to absorb the microwave
energy.
When using the Convection Microwave Oven at
power levels below 100%, you may hear the mag-
netron cycling on and off. it is normal for the exterior
of the oven to be warm to the touch when cooking
or reheating.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cook-
ing. Room humidity and the moisture in food will
influence the amount of moisture that condenses in
the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause as
much condensation as uncovered ones. Ventilation
openings must not be blocked.
The Convection Microwave Oven is for food prepa-
ration only. It should not be used to dry clothes or
newspapers.
Your Convection Microwave Oven is rated 900 watts
by using the IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes
or package directions, check food a minute or two
before the minimum time and add time accordingly.
About safety
Check foods to see that they are cooked to the
United States Department of Agriculture's recom-
mended temperatures.
160°F
165°F
170F
180°F
For fresh pork, ground meat, bone-
less white poultry, fish, seafood, egg
dishes and frozen prepared food.
For leftover, ready-to-reheat refriger-
ated. and dell and carry-out "fresh"
food.
White meat of poultry.
Dark meat of poultry.
To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer _n
a thick or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER
leave the thermometer in the food during cooking,
unless it is approved for microwave use.
,, ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when
handling utensils that are in contact with hot food.
Enough heat from the food can transfer through
utensils to cause skin burns.
Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from
the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge
of a dish's covering and carefully open popcorn
and oven cooking bags away from the face.
* Stay near the oven while it's in use and check
cooking progress frequently so that there is no
chance of overcooking food.
,, NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or
other items.
Select, store and handle food carefully to pre-
serve its high quality and minimize the spread of
foodborne bacteria.
,, Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can
cause arcing and/or fires.
,, Use care when removing items from the oven so
that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do
not touch the safety door latches.
,, Keep aluminum foil used for shielding at least
1 inch away from walls, ceiling and door.

About microwave cooking
Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas
towards outside of dish.
,, Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount
of time indicated and add more as needed. Food
severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
,, Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cook-
book for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper,
microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent
spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil
any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent
overcooking before dense, thick areas are cooked
thoroughly.
Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or
twice during cooking, if possible.
,, Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed
cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburg-
ers. Large items like roasts must be turned over
at least once.
,, Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway
through cooking both from top to bottom and from
the center of the dish to the outside.
Add standing time. Remove food from oven
and stir, if possible. Cover for standing time
which allows the food to finish cooking without
overcooki rig.
,, Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that
cooking temperatures have been reached.
,, Doneness signs include:
Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
Center bottom of dish is very hot to the
touch.
Poultry thigh joints move easily.
Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
About food
Eggs,
sausages,
nuts, seeds,
fruits &
vegetables
*Puncture egg yolks before cooking to
prevent "explosion".
o Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, squash,
hot dogs and sausages so that steam
escapes.
,, Cookeggs in shells.
o Reheat whole eggs.
,, Dry nuts or seeds in shells.
Baby food ,, Transfer baby food to small dish and heat
carefully, stirring often. Check temperature
before serving.
,, Put nipples on bottles after heating and
shake thoroughly. "Wrist" test before
feeding.
,, Heat disposable bottles,
,, Heat bottles with nipples on.
,, Heat baby food in original jars.
