HELPFUL TIPS
OVERCOOKED / UNDERCOOKED FOODS
For overcooked or undercooked food, the temperature setting, time setting or
Wire Rack may need to be adjusted or repositioned. Also, it is best to prevent
heat loss while cooking and avoid opening the oven door frequently.
Keep in mind that the RETRO TOASTER OVEN is smaller than a regular
oven and will heat up faster and generally cook in shorter periods of time.
In addition, frozen foods and thick meat will take longer to cook.
BURNING/SMOKING
A burnt smell coming from your RETRO TOASTER OVEN, may be due to food build-up inside
the oven. Follow the directions under CLEANING & MAINTENANCE to clean the oven.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Make sure the unit is unplugged and allow all parts to cool completely before cleaning.
To prolong the life of your RETRO TOASTER OVEN, please follow these simple
instructions for maintenance. Never place the appliance in a dishwasher.
• Wash the Wire Racks, Baking Pan, and Crumb Tray in warm, soapy water.
• Clean the outer surface with a soft, damp cloth.
• Dry all parts with a soft, non-abrasive towel or cloth.
• DO NOT use abrasive cleaning products as they may damage the unit.
