14. Use extreme caution when removing the tray, racks or disposing of hot grease or other hot liquids.
15. Do not clean the inside of the oven with metal scouring pads. Pieces can bre ak off the pad and touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electric shock.
17. A fire may occur if the oven is covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls and the like when in operation. Do not place any items on the oven during operation.

Using Your Stainless Steel Convection Oven
Before Using Your Stainless Steel Convection Oven
1. Read all of the instructions included in this manual.
2. Make sure that the oven is unplugged and the timer is in the “OFF” position.
3. Wash all the accessories in hot, soapy water or in a dishwasher.
4. Thoroughly dry all accessories and re-assemble in oven. Plug oven into outlet and you are ready to use your new convection oven.
5. After re-assembling your oven, we recommend that you run it at the highest temperature (450°F) on the toast function for approximately 15 minutes to eliminate any packing residue that may remain after shipping. This will also remove all traces of odor initially present.
Note: Initial start-up operation may result in minimal smell and smoke (about 15
minutes). This is normal and harmless. It is due to burning of a protective substance applied to the heating elements in the factory.
Warning: TO AVOID RISK OF INJURY OR BURNS, DO NOT TOUCH HOT
SURFACES WHEN OVEN IS IN USE. ALWAYS USE OVEN MITTS.
Caution: Always use extreme care when removing the baking pan, wire
rack, crumb tray or any hot object from a hot oven. Always use oven mitts when removing these items.
Caution: Do not leave oven unattended while in operation.
Please familiarize yourself with the following oven functions and accessories prior to first use:
Temperature Control
Choose the desired temperature from 150°F to 450°F for baking.
Function Control
This oven is equipped with four positions for a variety of cooking needs:
1. Warm - To keep cooked food warm for up to 30 minutes.
2. Convection Bake - Cakes, pies, cookies, poultry, beef, pork, etc.
3. Convection Broil - For broiling fish, steak, poultry, pork chops, etc.
4. Toast - Bread, muffins, frozen waffles, etc.

Crumb Tray
The crumb try is the full width of the unit interior and is designed for easy removal and cleaning. Located under the oven door, the crumb try can be removed without opening the oven door.
Crumb Tray
Convection Cooking
Convection cooking combines hot air movement by means of a fan with the regular features (broil, and bake). Convection cooking provides faster cooking in many cases than regular radiant types toaster ovens. The fan gently sends air to every area of the food, quickly browning, crisping and sealing in moisture and flavor. It produces a more even temperature all
3
around the food by air movement so that food cooks evenly versus the normal ovens hot and cold spots. The convection feature allows cooking/baking at lower temperatures, which saves energy and helps keep the kitchen cooler. Convection air is superheated and it circulates around the food cooking it significantly faster than conventional ovens.

Convection Oven Function Settings:
1. Warm
Keep cooked food warm for up to 30 minutes. Longer periods of time are not recommended as food will become dry or will spoil.
Operation
1. Set temperature control to the 180°F.

Convection baking is very consistent and even. The fan circulates the hot air around the food making baked goods rise quickly and evenly. Bake your favorite cookies, cakes, pies, brownies, etc. The bake ware that will fit in your oven are up to 12 inches in length. We do not recommend the use of oven roasting bags or non-ovenproof glass containers in the oven. Never use plastic, cardboard, paper or anything similar in the oven.

Preheat oven for 15 minutes, then place cookie sheet on the wire rack to begin baking.
Use parchment paper on cookie sheets so cookies will not stick.
Cookie sheet baking times and temperatures may differ from those necessary when using other baking materials.
