Additional Safety Information
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 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.
Please take a few minutes to read this manual before using your oven to become familiar with its parts and operation. Included you will find a wide assortment of mouth-watering recipes that were specially written for use in your new Convection Oven with Rotisserie.

Using Your Oven (cont.)
Before Your First Use
Read all instructions in this manual carefully. The information included in this book will help you to use your Bistro Convection Oven with Rotisserie to its fullest.
Place your oven on a level surface such as a countertop or table. Be sure the sides, back and top of the oven are at least four inches away from any walls, cabinets or objects on the counter or table.
Remove all stickers from the oven except the rating label located on the back.
Remove Oven Rack, Drip/Baking Pan, Broiling/Roasting Rack, Rotisserie Spit and Forks. Wash them in hot, sudsy water or in the dishwasher and dry thoroughly before placing in the oven.
When you are ready to use the oven, be sure that the Temperature and Time Controls are in the “Off” position. Plug the cord into a 120-volt AC outlet.
We recommend a “trial run” at a high temperature to familiarize yourself with your oven and to eliminate any protective substance or oil that may have been used for packing and shipping. Set the Temperature Control to “Max”, the Function Control to “Broil”, and the Time Control to “20” minutes. After the first 10 minutes, switch the Function Control to “Bake” to activate the lower heating elements. A small amount of smoke and odor may be detected. This is normal.
To avoid scratching, marring, discoloration or fire hazard, do not store anything on top of the oven, especially during operation.
This appliance requires 1,700 watts and should be the only appliance operating on the circuit.
Important Notice Regarding Use
of Pizza Stone
1 The enclosed Pizza Stone must only be used for making pizza
or bread.
2 Do not use your pizza stone in temperatures higher then 425ºF.
3 Your stone can be cleaned by placing it on the bottom rack
of your toaster oven and setting the temperature to 425ºF for 4 hours. After allowing the stone to cool you can scour it with baking soda.
Slow Cooking
The bottom heating elements cycle on and off to maintain the selected temperature while the top heating elements remain off. The convection fan will run during the Slow Cook cycle.
Slow cooking is a long cooking process at a low temperature used to tenderize less tender cuts of meat and blend flavors in soups and stews. Foods to be slow cooked are usually placed in a covered casserole with some liquid and cooked at 250° for 4 to 12 hours.
1
Place the oven rack in the lowest rack position facing upward.
2
Place the covered casserole with food to be slow cooked on the center of the oven rack.
3
Set the Temperature Control to 250°.
4
Set the Function Control to “Slow Cook”.
5
Set the Time Control to “Stay On” and follow recipe instructions for time.
Note: The drip/baking pan should always be removed from oven when slow cooking as it will interfere with the flow of hot air from the bottom elements.
Defrosting
The heating elements do not operate for this function. For defrosting, the convection fan circulates air to thaw food in a shorter period of time than conventional methods of defrosting.
Important: Defrosted foods should be cooked as soon as possible after thawing and should never be left at room temperature when completely thawed as harmful bacteria will begin to grow. DO NOT defrost large amounts of food at one time.
1
Place the drip/baking pan in the bottom rails of the oven.
2
Place the oven rack in middle position facing up.
3
Place the food to be defrosted on the center of the oven rack.
4
Set the Temperature Control to “0”.
5
Set the Function Control to “Defrost”.
6
Set the Time Control to the shortest amount of time necessary for defrosting.
7
Check when the timer shuts off and the bell rings. Add more time if necessary.
Baking
In baking mode the bottom heating elements operate at full power and the top heating elements operate at 50% power. The heating elements will cycle on and off to maintain the selected temperature. The Convection fan will operate during the Bake cycle.
Convection baking is very consistent and even. The oven heats quickly, so preheating is not necessary or desirable. The fan circulates the hot air around the food making baked goods rise quickly and evenly. In many convection ovens, it is necessary to lower the baking temperature to achieve acceptable results. Your Bistro Convection Oven has been designed for easy use. Lowering the baking temperature is not necessary. Follow package or recipe directions remembering not to preheat the oven and check after the shortest baking time.
In most cases you should use the lowest rack position; however if more browning is desired place in the upper racks. The drip/baking pan included with your oven can also be used for baking. It is enamel coated making it easy to clean. When not in use, the drip/baking pan should always be removed from the rails in the bottom of the oven when baking as it will interfere with the flow of hot air from the bottom elements. When it is being used as the baking pan, the pan should be placed in the middle or upper racks.
1
Place the oven rack or baking pan in the desired rack position. If using the lowest position the rack should be facing up.
2
Set the Temperature Control to the recommended temperature.
3
Set the Function Control to “Bake”.
4
Set the Time Control to the shortest baking time in the recipe and check for desired doneness.
A Note on Baking Times:
Convection air is superheated and it circulates around the food, so it cooks food faster. When baking your favorite recipes or packaged goods, follow recipe instructions remembering not to preheat. Check baked goods a few minutes before shortest recommended baking time.
Recommended Baking Temperatures
Cakes: 325°-350° Cheesecake: 300° Quick Bread: 375°
Proofing Bread Dough
When making yeast bread, you can proof (raise) the dough in the oven on the Bake function. Set the Temperature Control to 175° (in between the second and third slash after 150’). Reduce the recipe rising time by 25% to 30% and set the Time Control to that time. Allow dough to double in size. Turn the Temperature Control to the desired baking temperature and the Time Control to the shortest baking time in the recipe.

Roasting
The top and bottom heating elements cycle on and off to maintain the selected temperature. The convection fan remains off during the Roast cycle.
1
Place the broiling/roasting rack in the drip/baking pan.
2
Place the meat fat side up on the broiling/roasting rack (unless otherwise directed).
3
Preheat the oven to the recommended temperature before roasting.
4
Slide the drip/baking pan into position in the rails at the bottom of the oven.
5
Set the Temperature Control to the desired temperature.
6
Set the Function Control to “Roast”.
7
Set the Time Control to the shortest time. If more than 2 hours, set to “Stay On” and check after the shortest time.
Use the following chart as a guide for roasting. Use a reliable meat thermometer for the most accurate results. Roasts should stand for 10 to 15 minutes before carving. During this time, they will continue to cook increasing the meat thermometer reading by about 10 degrees
Rotisserie Roasting
The top heating elements cycle on and off to maintain the maximum temperature in the oven while the spit continually turns. The convection fan will remain off during rotisserie roasting.
Rotisserie roasting is a healthy way to cook meats because the slow-turning spit provides natural basting of meats while fats drip away. The rotisserie can be used to roast meats up to 7 pounds and will handle two 3-pound chickens. It is not necessary to preheat the oven for rotisserie roasting.
1
Place one rotisserie fork on the end of the rotisserie spit opposite the point with the tines facing the center and tighten the screw slightly.
2
Slide the pointed end of the rotisserie spit through the center of the food to be cooked.
3
Place the other rotisserie fork on the other end of the rotisserie spit with the tines facing the roast.
4
Adjust the roast so that it is centered on the rotisserie spit. Make sure the forks secure the roast on the spit and tighten the screws. When cooking poultry, it may be necessary to secure legs and wings to the body with string to make the roast as compact as possible for smooth movement of the rotisserie spit.
5
Season or baste the roast as desired.
6
IMPORTANT! Place the drip/baking pan in the rails on the bottom of the oven to catch the drippings.
7
Put the pointed end of the rotisserie spit in the drive socket on right interior wall of the oven.
8
Place the grooved end on the spit support on the left interior wall of the oven.
9
Set the Temperature Control to “MAX”.
10
Set the Function Control to “Rotisserie”.
11
Set the Time Control to the shortest time. If more than 2 hours, set to “Stay On” and check after the shortest time.
12
When the roast is done, turn the Temperature Control to “0” and the Time Control to “Off” and unplug the oven.
13
Remove the rotisserie spit from the oven using the rotisserie handle included.
14
Place the roast on a cutting board or platter and allow to stand for 10-15 minutes.
15
Using a pot holder, loosen the screws on the rotisserie forks and remove the rotisserie spit from the roast. Carefully remove the rotisserie forks and carve the roast.
Caution: The rotisserie spit, rotisserie forks, screws and the roast will be hot.
