electrical parts, creating a risk of electrical
shock.
15. Oversize foods or metal utensils must not
be inserted in a toaster oven as they may
create a fire or risk of electric shock.
16. A fire may occur if the toaster oven is
covered, touching or near flammable

This appliance is intended for household
use only.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized
plug. This type of plug has one blade wider
than the other. The plug will fit into an
electrical outlet only one way. This is a safety
feature intended to help reduce the risk of
electrical shock. If you are unable to insert
the plug into the outlet, try reversing the
plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact
a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete
outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug by modifying
the plug in any way.
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
toaster 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 assistance
number.
Always unplug your toaster oven from the
outlet when not in use.
When heavy foods are on the oven rack, do
not pull the oven rack out more than halfway.
To baste or check for doneness, remove food
from the oven and place on counter.
The oven door is not a shelf. Do not place
anything on the oven door.
Do not place bake pan directly on heating
elements.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload,
do not operate another high-wattage appliance on the same circuit with the toaster
oven.
Consumer Safety Information

Toasting Tips!
• To toast frozen pastry or waffles,
place oven rack in high position.
Select a light color and toast directly
on oven rack. If pastry has a glaze or
frosting, use baking pan to prevent
dripping.
• The number of slices of bread, the
bread freshness, and the starting
temperature of the oven will affect
toast color. If the oven is already hot,
select a lighter shade of toast than
normal. Adjust the toast Shade
Selector to achieve the desired color.
• When toasting, condensation may
form on oven door. A toaster is
open and allows moisture to escape.
A toaster oven is a closed space and
so moisture is slow to escape. This is
normal.
• At the end of the toast cycle,
remove toast immediately or the
heat remaining in the toaster oven
will continue to toast and dry out
your toast.
