IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using an electrical appliance, especially when children are present,
basic safety precautions should always be taken, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. UNPLUG FROM OUTLET WHEN NOT IN USE AND BEFORE
CLEANING. Allow to cool before cleaning or handling.
3. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
4. To protect against electric shock, do not place any part of the Toaster
Oven Broiler in water or other liquids. See instructions for cleaning on
page 6.
5. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or
near children, or individuals with certain disabilities.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance has malfunctioned or has been dropped or damaged in any
way or is not operating properly. Return the Toaster Oven Broiler to the
nearest Cuisinart Repair Center for examination, repair or mechanical
or electrical adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Cuisinart
may cause injury.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over the edge of the table or countertop where
it could be pulled on inadvertently by children or pets, or touch hot
surfaces, which could damage the cord.
10. Do not place Toaster Oven Broiler on or near a hot gas or electric burner
or in a heated oven.
11. Do not use this Toaster Oven Broiler for anything other than its
intended purpose.
12. Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed
of materials other than metal or glass in the Toaster Oven Broiler.
13. To avoid burns, use extreme caution when removing tray or disposing
of hot grease.
14. When not in use, always unplug the unit. Do not store any materials
other than manufacturer’s recommended accessories in this oven.
15. Do not place any of the following materials in the oven: paper,
cardboard, plastic and similar products.
16. Do not cover crumb tray or any part of the oven with metal foil. This will
cause overheating of the oven.
Caution: Aluminum foil is not recommended for covering the crumb tray.
Grease will accumulate on the foil surface and may catch fire. If you
choose to use foil to cover the baking pan/drip tray, be sure foil is cut to
neatly fit into the pan and does not touch the wall or heating elements.
17. Oversize foods, metal foil packages and utensils must not be inserted
in the Toaster Oven Broiler, as they may involve a risk of fire or
electric shock.
18. A fire may occur if the Toaster Oven Broiler is covered or touching
flammable materials such as curtains, draperies, and walls, when in
operation. Do not store any items on top of the appliance when in
operation. Do not operate under wall cabinets.
2
19. Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad
and touch electrical parts, involving a risk of electric shock.
20. Do not attempt to dislodge food when the Toaster Oven Broiler is
plugged into electrical outlet.
21. Warning: To avoid possibility of fire, NEVER leave Toaster Oven Broiler
unattended during use
22. Do not rest cooking utensils or baking dishes on glass door.
23. Turn the function dial to the OFF position to turn off Toaster Oven Broiler.
24. Where applicable, always attach plug to appliance and check that the
function dial is off before plugging cord into wall outlet. To disconnect,
turn the function dial to OFF, then remove plug from wall outlet.
25. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance garage or under a wall
cabinet. When storing in an appliance garage, always unplug the
unit from the electrical outlet. Not doing so could create a risk of fire,
especially if the appliance touches the walls of the garage or the door
touches the unit as it closes.
SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting
from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.
If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension
cord must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,
and the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over
the counter top or tabletop where it can be tripped over or pulled on
by children.

BEFORE THE FIRST USE
Place your oven on a flat surface. Remove any packaging and promotional
labels in or on the oven. Unwind the power cord. Check that the crumb tray
is in place and that there is nothing inside or on top of the oven. Plug power
cord into wall outlet.
Before first use, thoroughly wash the baking pan and ovenrack with soap
and water, and dry them thoroughly.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Always allow the oven to cool completely before cleaning.
1. Always unplug the oven from the electrical outlet.
2. Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they will damage the finish. Simply wipe
the exterior with a clean, damp cloth and dry thoroughly. If using cleaning
agent, apply to cloth, not to the Toaster Oven Broiler, before cleaning.
3. To clean interior walls, use a damp cloth and a mild liquid soap solution
or a spray solution on a sponge. Never use harsh abrasives or corrosive
products. These could damage the oven surface. Never use scouring
soap pads on interior of oven.
4. To remove crumbs, slide out the crumb tray and discard crumbs.
Wipe clean and replace. To remove baked-on grease, soak the tray in
hot, sudsy water or use nonabrasive cleaners. Never operate the
Toaster Oven Broiler without the crumb tray in place.
5.
Wire rack, pan and crumb tray should be hand-washed in hot, sudsy water or
use a nylon scouring pad or nylon brush.
6. Never wrap the cord around the outside of the oven. Use the cord
storage cleats on the back of the oven.
7. Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service
representative.
IMPORTANT:
After cooking greasy foods and after your oven has cooled, always clean
interior of Toaster Oven Broiler. If this is done on a regular basis, your
Toaster Oven Broiler will perform like new. Removing the grease will help to
keep toasting consistent, cycle after cycle.
