CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Always allow the oven to cool completely before cleaning.
1. Always unplug the oven from the electrical outlet.
2. Do not use abrasive cleansers, as they will damage the finish. Simply wipe
the exterior with a clean damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Apply the cleans-
ing agent to a cloth, not to the toaster oven, before cleaning.
3. To clean interior walls, use a damp cloth and a mild liquid soap solution or
a spray solution on a sponge. Never use harsh abrasives or corrosive
products. These could damage the oven surface. Never use Brillo pads,
etc. on interior of oven.
4. To remove crumbs, slide out the crumb tray and discard crumbs. Wipe
clean and replace. Crumb tray is dishwasher-safe. To remove baked-on
grease, soak the tray in hot sudsy water or use nonabrasive cleaners.
Never operate the oven without the crumb tray in place.
5. Wire rack, broiling pan and drip tray are dishwasher-safe. If heavily soiled,
soak in hot sudsy water or use a nylon scouring pad or nylon brush.
6. Never wrap the cord around the outside of the oven. Use the cord storage
cleats on the back of the oven.
IMPORTANT:
After cooking greasy foods and after your oven has cooled, always clean top
interior of oven. If this is done on a regular basis, your oven will perform like
new. Removing the grease will help to keep toasting consistent, cycle after
cycle.
