Overview

This document serves as a comprehensive user manual for the Electrolux EMOW1911AS Microwave Oven, providing detailed instructions on its operation, maintenance, and safety.

The Electrolux EMOW1911AS is a versatile microwave oven designed for heating, cooking, and drying food. It offers a range of cooking functions, including microwave, convection, and combination cooking, as well as specialized features like sensor cooking and auto defrost. The appliance is equipped with a digital display that shows the time of day, cooking settings, and selected functions. Its control panel features auto-touch pads for various cooking modes, power levels, and convenient settings.

Function Description:

The microwave oven's primary function is to cook and reheat food using microwave energy. It also incorporates a convection cooking mode, which uses a heating element and a fan to circulate heated air, allowing for baking, roasting, and browning similar to a conventional oven. The combination cooking mode combines microwave and convection heat to speed up cooking while achieving browned and crisp results.

Usage Features:

  • Manual Cooking: Users can manually set cooking time and power levels. The oven offers 10 power levels, ranging from 10% to 100%, with common words like "High," "Medium High," "Medium," "Med Low/Defrost," and "Low" to describe the approximate percentage of power.
  • One Touch Cook: This feature allows for quick cooking starts with pre-set times for 1 to 9 minutes at 100% power. It also includes a dedicated "Popcorn" button for popping commercially packaged microwave popcorn bags of various sizes (3.30 oz, 3.00 oz, 1.75 oz).
  • Melt/Soften: This function uses low power to melt or soften items like butter, chocolate, ice cream, and cream cheese, with specific instructions for each food type.
  • Sensor Cooking: The oven is equipped with an electronic sensor that detects vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from food as it heats. This allows the oven to automatically adjust cooking times and power levels for various foods and quantities. Sensor Cook options include Bacon, Potato, Frozen Dinner, Rice, Frozen Breakfast, Fresh Veggies, and Frozen Veggies. During sensor cooking, the food name appears in the display, and the remaining cooking time appears once the sensor detects vapor. Users are advised not to open the door or press the cancel pad during the initial sensing phase.
  • Sensor Reheat: Similar to sensor cooking, this feature reheats various food items like Beverage, Soup/Sauce, Pizza, Dinner Plate, Casserole/Lasagna, and Roll/Muffin, automatically adjusting the reheating time based on sensor readings.
  • Convection Cooking: This mode allows users to cook at temperatures ranging from 100°F to 425°F. The fan circulates heated air for even cooking and browning. Users can choose to preheat the oven or cook without preheating. The manual recommends using the round wire rack for convection cooking and reducing recipe temperatures by 25°F for baked goods.
  • Combination Cooking: This mode combines microwave and convection cooking for faster, browned, and crisp results.
  • Auto Defrost: This feature provides three defrosting levels: Meat, Poultry, and Fish. Users enter the weight of the food in pounds and tenths of a pound (0.1-6.0 lbs). The oven signals when it's time to turn, separate, or rearrange the food for optimal defrosting. A weight conversion table is provided to convert ounces to decimal pounds.
  • Convenient Features:
    • Keep Warm: This function helps keep food warm after cooking.
    • Add 30 Sec: Allows for quick addition of 30 seconds to the cooking time.
    • Multi Stage Cooking: Enables programming multiple cooking stages with different power levels and times.
    • Ready Set: Provides quick start cooking at 100% power for 1 to 9 minutes by simply pressing the corresponding number key.
  • Settings: The microwave oven offers several customizable settings:
    • Vent Fan: Adjusts the fan speed to High, Medium, Low, or Off.
    • Volume: Controls the sound level (Low, Medium, High, Off).
    • Language: Allows selection between French and English.
    • Turntable ON/OFF: Enables or disables the turntable rotation.
    • Weight Lb/KG: Switches between pounds and kilograms for weight input.
    • Clock Display: Turns the clock display On or Off.
    • DEMO: Activates or deactivates demonstration mode, which prevents the microwave and convection heater from generating heat.
    • Bottom Light: Controls the bottom light (High, Low, Off).
  • Lock-out function for children: A child lock feature can be activated to prevent unintended operation.

Maintenance Features:

  • Exterior Cleaning: The outside surface, made of precoated steel and plastic, should be cleaned with mild soap and water, rinsed, and dried with a soft cloth. Abrasive cleaners should be avoided.
  • Door Cleaning: The window should be wiped with a soft cloth to remove spills. Metal parts can be maintained with frequent wiping. Harsh cleaners that may stain or dull the door surface should be avoided.
  • Easy Care™ Stainless Steel (Some Models): Clean with warm soapy water using a clean sponge or cloth, rinse with clean water, and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, chlorides, chlorines, or ammonia. A 50/50 solution of water and vinegar is recommended.
  • Interior Cleaning: The interior surfaces should be wiped with a soft cloth and warm water. Abrasive or harsh cleaners and scouring pads should not be used. For heavier soil, baking soda or mild soap can be used, followed by thorough rinsing. The rack can be cleaned with hot soapy water.
  • Waveguide Cover: Located on the ceiling of the oven cavity, this mica cover should be kept clean to ensure good performance. Food spatters should be wiped immediately to prevent overheating or fire. The waveguide cover should not be removed.
  • Odor Removal: To remove cooking odors, a mixture of water, lemon peel and juice, and cloves can be boiled in the oven, then allowed to cool before wiping the interior.
  • Turntable/Turntable Support Cleaning: The turntable and its support are removable and can be washed in mild, sudsy water or in the dishwasher (upper rack). For stubborn stains, a mild cleanser and non-abrasive scouring sponge can be used.
  • Grease Filter Cleaning: The oven ventilation grease filter should be removed and cleaned at least once a month. It can be soaked in hot water with detergent or washed in a dishwasher. Ammonia cleaners should not be used as they can corrode and darken the aluminum filter.
  • Surface Light Replacement: The manual provides instructions for replacing the 1.2W LED bulb for the surface lights located under the microwave.
  • Oven Light Replacement: Instructions are given for replacing the 1.2W LED bulb for the oven light, which requires removing the vent grill.
  • Charcoal Filter Replacement: For non-vented, recirculated installations, the charcoal filter should be changed every 6 to 12 months. Instructions for removal and replacement are provided.

The manual emphasizes important safety instructions throughout, including warnings about excessive microwave energy exposure, fire hazards, and proper grounding. It also provides guidance on appropriate utensils and coverings for microwave cooking.
