This document is an owner's manual for a High Speed Combination Oven, specifically the AXP/MXP model, which combines microwave, convection, and radiant heating technologies.
Function Description:
The oven is designed for high-speed cooking, offering various cooking methods to achieve optimal results for a wide range of food items. It supports multiple cooking stages, allowing users to program up to four different cooking cycles consecutively without repeated input. This feature is particularly useful for frozen or delicate foods, enabling precise control over temperature, microwave power, fan speed, and radiant heating at each stage. The combination of heating elements allows for efficient cooking, browning, and crisping. The oven can also function as a microwave-only oven, provided the cavity temperature is below 200°F (95°C).
Important Technical Specifications:
- Temperature Range: The oven can be preheated to temperatures between 200°F (95°C) and 520°F (270°C).
- Microwave Power: Adjustable, with settings up to 100%.
- Fan Speed: Adjustable, with settings up to 100%.
- Radiant Heating: Adjustable, with settings up to 100%.
- Maximum Cook Time: Total combined stages cannot exceed 100 minutes.
- Oven Rack: Designed to be placed with the rear guard positioned toward the back of the oven. Food should not be cooked directly on the oven floor.

Maintenance Features:
- Daily Cleaning: Recommended to clean the oven daily. This involves shutting off the oven, allowing it to cool, removing the rack and accessories, lifting the bottom element to remove baked-on particles, spraying the interior with ACP Oven Cleaner (Item CL10), wiping with a damp towel, and then spraying with ACP Oven Shield Oven Protectant (Item SH10). The exterior should be cleaned with a mild detergent solution.
- Weekly Cleaning: Includes cleaning the air filters located on each side of the oven. Filters should be removed, washed in a mild detergent solution, rinsed, dried, and reinstalled.
- Cleaning Products: Only non-caustic cleaning products are recommended. The use of products containing ammonia, phosphates, chlorine, sodium, or potassium hydroxide (lye) can damage critical oven parts and void the warranty.
