CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION:

This appliance is intended for household use only.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming
tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary an approved extension
cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than
the rating of the oven. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape
over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.
This appliance is equipped with a fully-tempered safety glass door. The tempered glass is four
times stronger than ordinary glass and more resistant to breakage. Tempered glass can break,
however it breaks into pieces with no sharp edges. Care must be taken to avoid scratching door
surface or nicking edges. If the door has a scratch or nick, call our toll-free customer service
number. Always unplug your oven from the outlet when not in use.

OPERATION

AC Plug

AC Outlet

USING YOUR OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME

Most heating appliances produce an odor and/or smoke when used for the first time.
Plug the oven into an outlet. Turn the Temperature Knob to TOAST/BROIL. Heat at
this temperature for 15 minutes. The odor should not be present after this initial
preheating.
Wash all accessories before using.

AC CONNECTION

Unwind the AC cord and extend it to its full
length. Insert the AC plug into any convenient
120V 60Hz household outlet.
Please note that this unit is equipped with a
polarized AC plug which has one blade wider
than the other. This is a safety feature to reduce
the likelihood of electric shock. This polarized
AC plug will only fit in a polarized AC outlet. If
you find that you cannot insert this plug into your outlet, you may have an obsolete
non-polarized outlet. Please do not try to defeat this safety feature by using a non­polarized adapter or by filing the wider blade to make it fit into your outlet. If this plug
does not fit into your outlet, you should contact a qualified licensed electrician to
replace your obsolete outlet.

REMOVING THE BAKING PAN USING THE HANDLE

To remove the Baking pan once
cooking is completed, use the
Handle as shown and place the
Baking pan on a heat resistant,
sturdy surface.

NOTES:

• Only use the handle on the

included Baking pan.

• Do not use the handle to
remove the Wire Rack or
Rotisserie.

oven-safe container) or the Baking pan
(if baking directly on it) in the middle or
bottom slots depending on the food to
be cooked.

3

Rotate the TIMER knob to 10 minutes to
preheat the oven. When the oven is
done preheating, place the food in the
oven and rotate the TIMER knob to the
desired cooking time.

2

You can also rotate the TIMER knob to 0
to stop cooking. Remove the included
Baking pan using the handle as shown
on page 4.

NOTES:

• This oven operates as a full-time convection oven and will cook faster than
traditional baking, so check food often. The convection fan will always be on
except when the TIMER knob and/or CONVECTION/FUNCTION knob are set
to OFF.

• Do not place accessories or any other item on top of the oven as oven top
will get hot.

• Use the BAKE setting when browning and crisping are not important, such as
casseroles, vegetables, fish, lasagna, etc.

• If cooking pizza, it is recommended to place aluminum foil, to make clean up of
dripping cheese easier, under the bottom cooking elements and to cook directly on
the Wire rack.
