IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
Read all instructions.
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug or oven in water or
other liquid.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Unplug unit from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before
putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning.
Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. No user-serviceable parts inside. Call our toll-free customer service number for information on examination, repair or adjustment.
The use of accessory attachments not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may cause injuries.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other
hot liquids.
Use extreme caution when removing rack, bake tray, drip pan, crumb tray or disposing of hot grease. Always use oven mitts or hot pads when removing items from the oven.
Oversize foods or metal utensils must not be inserted in the halogen oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
A fire may occur if the halogen oven is covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls, and the like, when in operation. Do not store any item on top of the appliance when in operation.
Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts creating a risk of electric shock.
Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of other than metal or glass.
Do not store any materials, other than manufacturers recommended accessories, in this oven when not in use.
Do not place any of the following materials in the oven; paper, cardboard, plastic, any other material that may catch fire or melt.
Do not cover crumb tray or any part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.
To disconnect, press the Stop key twice, then remove the plug from wall outlet.
Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
For Household Use Only.

This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. It may be plugged into an AC electrical outlet (ordinary household current). Do not use any other electrical outlet.
DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE, OR IF APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power­supply cord or extension cord is used;
1) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and
2) The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
If the power-supply cord is a grounding-type-3-wire cord with a grounding prong on the plug, the extension cord should also be a grounding-type-3-wire cord.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electrical shock. The appliance is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and a 3-prong grounding-type plug to fit the proper grounding-type receptacle.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS – US ONLY
The appliance has a plug that looks like Figure A. An adaptor, as shown in Figure B, should be used for connecting a 3-prong grounding plug to a 2-ground receptacle. The grounding tab, which extends from the adaptor, must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box as shown in Figure C, using a metal screw.
LINE CORD SAFETY TIPS
1. Never pull or yank on cord or the appliance.
2. To insert plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into outlet.
3. To disconnect appliance, grasp plug and remove it from outlet.
4. Before each use, inspect the line cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If any are found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced and the line cord replaced.
5. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place undo stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break.
