IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To protect against electrical shock do not immerse cord, plug,
or toaster oven in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by
or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow
to cool before cleaning appliance and putting on or taking off
parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or
after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in
any manner. Call our toll-free customer service number for
information on examination, repair or electrical or mechanical
adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by

8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch
hot surfaces.
10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
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 material, including curtains, draperies, walls, and the
like, when in operation. Do not store any item on top of the
appliance when in operation, or before the appliance cools
down.
17. Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers
constructed of other than metal or glass.
18. Do not store any materials, other than Hamilton Beach/
Proctor-Silex, Inc. recommended accessories, in this oven.
19. Do not place any of the following materials in the oven: paper,
cardboard, plastic, and the like.
20. Do not cover crumb tray or any part of the oven with metal foil.
This will cause overheating of the oven.
21. To turn oven off, turn Timer to OFF position. See “Parts and
Features” section.
22. Do not place eyes or face in close proximity with tempered

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 service number.
Always unplug your toaster oven from the outlet when not in use.
Before First Use
Most heating appliances produce an odor and/or smoke
when used for the first time. Plug the toaster oven into an
outlet. Turn the Temperature Knob to 450°F. Heat at this
temperature for 10 minutes. The odor should not be present
after this initial preheating. Wash baking pan, broil rack,
and oven rack before using.

facing down. Set Toast Color Knob to the dark setting.
• To toast regular toaster pastries, frozen pastry, or
waffles, place oven rack in the middle position. Select a
light color and toast directly on the oven rack. If pastry has
a glaze of frosting, use baking pan.
• When toasting, condensation may form on the oven door.
The moisture will slowly escape from the enclosed oven.
• The number of slices of bread and the bread freshness
will affect toast color. For example, toasting 4 slices of
bread will require a darker toast color setting than 2 slices
of bread. Adjust the Toast Color Knob based on desired
color and number of slices.

cooking bags in the toaster oven.
• “Fan Only” mode operates the convection
fan (on selected models) which circulates

Cleaning
Your toaster oven’s crumb tray should be cleaned regularly for
best performance and long life. Regular cleaning of the crumb
tray will also reduce the risk of fire hazard.
1. Unplug oven and allow to cool.
2. Wash oven rack and baking pan in
hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry.
3. To clean the crumb tray, slide out
and wipe crumb tray with a damp
cloth. Slide back into position.
4. To clean the outside of the oven,
wipe with a damp cloth. Do not
use abrasive cleansers. Do not clean with metal scouring
pads. Pieces can break off pad and touch electrical parts,
causing a risk of electric shock.
NOTE: This is a continuous self-cleaning oven. Cleaning the
oven’s interior walls is not necessary.

Troubleshooting
The toaster oven will not heat.
Check to make sure the outlet is working and the oven is
plugged in. Next turn the Temperature Knob to 350°F, turn
Function Knob to Bake, and turn Timer to Stay On.
The toaster oven will not toast.
Check to make sure outlet is working and oven is plugged in.
1. Turn Temperature Knob to Toast.
2. Turn Function Knob to Toast.
3. Turn Timer/Toast Color Knob to a toast color.
Moisture forms on the inside of the oven door when toasting.
This is normal when toasting in a toaster oven. Moisture is
slower to escape from the toaster oven than from a toaster.
The amount of moisture will differ between fresh bread, bagels,
and frozen pastry.
An odor and smoke comes from the toaster oven.
Smoke and odor is normal during the first use of most heating
appliances. This will not be present after the initial heating period.
Some foods burn and some are not done.
Use oven rack position to center food in the oven. Adjust oven
temperature or cooking time for best results with your recipes.
