SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Please read and keep these instructions handy. These instructions
will help you to use your Cuisinart
to its fullest so that you will achieve consistent, professional results.
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 are available and 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 countertop or tabletop, where it can be tripped over or
pulled on by children.
NOTICE
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this
safety feature.

BEFORE 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.
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 6, for even toasting. Always position your item/items i
n 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 compact toaster oven broiler: Turn the timer dial to OFF.

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,
