BEFORE THE FIRST USE
Place your oven on a flat surface.
Before using your oven, move it two to four inches away from the wall or
from any objects on the countertop. Do not use on heat-sensitive surface.
OBJECTS SHOULD NOT BE STORED ON THE TOP OF THE OVEN. IF
THEY ARE, REMOVE ALL OBJECTS BEFORE YOU TURN ON YOUR
OVEN. THE EXTERIOR WALLS GET VERY HOT WHEN IN USE. KEEP
OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
Baking: Baking function can be used as you would normally use your
kitchen oven for roasting meats including chicken, or baking cakes,
cookies and more.
Convection Bake: Convection baking/roasting uses a fan to circulate heated
air around food as it cooks. For best results use cookie sheets with no sides
and baking dishes and roasting pans with very low sides to let maximum airflow reach food. For the same reason, do not cover foods while cooking.
Most baking recipes recommend reducing temperatures by 25 degrees when
using the convection feature. Always check doneness 10 minutes before
suggested cooking time.
Broiling: Broiling function can be used for beef, chicken, pork, fish and
more. It also can be used to top-brown casseroles and gratins. Caution:
Aluminum foil is not recommended for covering the broiling rack. If covered,
the foil prevents the fat from dripping into the drip tray. Grease will accumulate on the foil surface and may catch fire. If you choose to use foil to cover
the drip tray/baking pan, be sure foil is tucked neatly around the pan and
does not touch the wall or heating elements.
Toasting: Always have the rack in rack position B, as indicated in the
diagram on page 5, for even toasting. Always position your item/items in the
middle of the rack.
WARNING: Placing the rack in the bottom position or in the top position
with the rack upward while toasting may result in a fire. Refer to rack
position diagram for proper use.
Turning off the toaster oven broiler: Turn the timer dial to Off.
The indicator light will turn off.
USE AND CARE
Unwind the power cord. Check that the crumb tray is in place and that there
is nothing in the oven. Plug power cord into the wall outlet.
Broil
Note: When broiling, add approximately
drip tray to reduce sizzling and splattering. Place the broiling rack in the
drip tray. The oven rack can be turned up or down depending on the thickness of the food being broiled. In most cases the oven rack should be in the
higher position (position C – see rack position diagram on page 5).
To broil, set temperature and function dials to broil. Turn timer dial to desired
time. To set the timer for less than 10 minutes, turn the timer past the 10minute mark and then turn it back to desired time. Preheat oven for five minutes with door closed. After the five-minute preheat period, place the broiling
pan in the oven. Always leave door ajar when broiling.
To stop broil operation, turn timer dial to off position.
Note: Never use glass oven dishes to broil.
Bake
To bake, turn the temperature dial to the desired temperature, turn
function dial to bake position and turn timer dial to desired time. The oven
indicator light will turn on. The timer can be set for up to 30 minutes. To set
timer for less than 10 minutes, turn the timer past the 10-minute mark and
then turn it back to desired time. At the end of the cooking time a bell will
ring once and the oven will turn off automatically. If you select always "On"
you will need to turn off the oven manually by turning the timer dial to the
"Off" position. Preheat oven for five to ten minutes (time will vary depending
upon desired temperature); then begin to bake.
Convection Bake
To use convection baking/roasting, turn the temperature dial to the desired
temperature, turn function dial to convection bake position and turn timer
dial to desired time. The oven indicator light will turn on. The timer can be
set for up to 30 minutes. To set the timer for less than 10 minutes, turn the
timer past the 10-minute mark and then turn it back to desired time. At the
end of the cooking time, a bell will ring once and the oven will turn off automatically. If you select always "On", you will need to turn off the oven manually by turning the timer to the "Off" position. Preheat oven for five to ten
minutes (time will vary depending upon desired temperature); then begin to
convection bake or roast.

Most baking recipes recommend reducing temperatures by 25 degrees when
using the convection feature. Always check 10 minutes before suggested
cooking time.
Warm
To keep food warm, turn the temperature dial to 200˚F; turn the function dial
to warm position and set the timer dial to the desired time. The timer can be
set for up to 30 minutes. The oven indicator light will turn on. Preheat oven
for five minutes. Place food on the wire rack or in the baking pan. When
warming, we recommend placing oven rack in the "B" position.
(see rack position diagram below).
Toast
To toast, make sure the oven is in position B, as indicated in
the diagram on this page. If toasting two items, center them in the middle of
the rack. Four items should be evenly spaced – two in front, two in back.
Six items should be evenly spaced – three in front, three in back. Close the
glass door.
Shade Selection
Turn temperature dial to broil/toast 500˚F. Set function dial to bake/toast.
Turn the timer dial to desired shade setting from light to dark within the
marked settings on this dial. To set the timer for less than 10 minutes, turn
the timer past the 10-minute mark and then turn back to desired time. This
will turn on the toaster oven broiler and the oven indicator light will turn on.
Stop Toasting
When the toasting cycle is finished, the oven will ring once and turn off. If
you wish to stop the toasting cycle before it is finished, simply turn the timer
dial to Off. The toaster oven broiler will cancel your toast cycle.
Important Notes on Toasting
The oven rack must be in position B as indicated in the diagram
on this page.
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 cleansers, as they will damage the finish. Simply
wipe the exterior with a clean damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Apply the
cleansing agent to a cloth, not to the toaster oven, 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 Brillo pads,
etc. on interior of oven.
4. To remove crumbs, slide out the crumb tray and discard crumbs. Wipe
clean and replace. Crumb tray is dishwasher safe. To remove baked-on
grease, soak the tray in hot sudsy water or use nonabrasive cleaners.
Never operate the oven without the crumb tray in place.
5. Oven rack, broiling rack and drip tray are dishwasher safe. If heavily
soiled, soak in hot sudsy water or use a nylon scouring pad or nylon
brush. Dry thoroughly after washing.
6. Never wrap the cord around the outside of the oven. Use the cord
storage cleats on the back of the oven.
IMPORTANT
After cooking greasy foods and after your oven has cooled, always clean top
interior of oven. If this is done on a regular basis, your oven will perform like
new. Removing the grease will help to keep toasting consistent, cycle after
cycle.
