WARNING To reduce risk of electric shock, fire, injury, or exposure to excessive microwave energy: • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Read all safety instructions before using the appliance. Read and follow Precautions to avoid exposure to excessive microwave energy, pg. 3.
Important safety information • Water, milk, coffee, tea, etc. can be "superheated" (heated beyond the boiling point without bubbling). THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A UTENSIL IS PUT IN THE LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury: – Do not overheat liquid. – Stir liquid before and halfway through heating. – Do not use straight-sided, narrow-necked containers. – After heating, leave liquids in the microwave briefly before removing.
Important safety information • • • • • • • • • • • • • Do not leave children unattended around the combi when it is in use. Do not use the combi as a space heater. Do not use water on grease fires.

What’s included with your oven This oven ships with different kinds of accessories that help you cook what you want.
Before you begin Before using the top and bottom ovens for the first time, remove all the accessories, and then clean the ovens thoroughly. Then, set the lower oven to Bake, and run it at 400 °F for 1 hour. Next, set the microwave (top) oven to Power Convection, and then run it at 400 °F for 1 hour. There will be a distinctive odor. This is normal. Ventilate your kitchen well during this conditioning period. Energy saving tips • Keep the oven door closed except to turn food.
Before you begin Water reservoir This feature is for Steam Bake, Steam Roast, and GreenClean™ modes, and for removing water scale that forms on the oven walls after using these three modes. Fill the reservoir before steam cooking or descaling. The reservoir is on the oven's right side above the oven chamber. 1. Open the oven door, and on the control screen, touch Open/Close Reservoir.

Oven (Lower Oven) CAUTION Timed cooking and Delay Start are good for cooking cured or frozen meats and most fruits and vegetables. Foods that spoil easily (e.g., milk, eggs, thawed/fresh fish, meat, or poultry) should be chilled in the refrigerator first. Even when chilled, however, they should not sit in the oven more than 1 hour before cooking, and should be removed promptly when done. Eating spoiled food can result in sickness from food poisoning.

Oven (Lower Oven) Using the temp probe For many foods, especially roasts (e.g., beef, pork, lamb) and poultry (chicken, turkey, etc), measuring internal temperature is the best way to determine doneness. The temp probe lets you cook meat to the exact desired internal temperature. This function can be used with Bake, Convection Bake, or Convection Roast. The food's internal temperature appears on the oven display from 100 °F upward. How to use the temp probe 1.
CAUTION To protect the Temp probe tip, it should not protrude through the surface of the meat but should be in or near the center. • Do not store the probe in the oven or leave it in the oven after cooking; always remove the probe after use to avoid damaging it later. • To avoid breaking the probe’s tip, defrost your food completely. • Do not use tongs to insert/remove the probe. Tongs can damage the probe. • Use the Temp probe for Temp Probe function cooking only.
