BEFORE FIRST USE
Place your oven on a flat surface.
Before using your oven, move it 2 to 4 inches away from the wall or from
any objects on the countertop. Do not use on heat-sensitive surfaces.
OBJECTS SHOULD NOT BE STORED ON THE TOP OF THE OVEN.
IF THEY ARE, REMOVE ALL OBJECTS BEFORE YOU TURN ON
YOUR OVEN. THE EXTERIOR WALLS GET VERY HOT WHEN IN USE.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
Bake/Pizza:
This function can be used as you would normally use your
kitchen oven for roasting meats, including chicken, or for delicate baked
goods like cakes and custards.
Use the provided baking pan for making fresh pizza. When baking frozen
pizza, place directly on the rack.
Convection Bake:
Convection baking uses a fan to circulate heated air
around food as it cooks. Use this function for baked goods that require
even browning like muffins, scones, cookies, pastry and bread.
Most baking recipes recommend reducing temperatures by 25 degrees
when using the convection feature. Always check doneness 10 minutes
before suggested cooking time.
Broil:
The Broil function can be used for beef, chicken, pork, fish
and more. It also can be used to top-brown casseroles and gratins.
Convection broil is best for meats and fish, while traditional broil should
be reserved for top browning.
Caution:
Aluminum foil is not recommended
for covering the rack or tray. If covered, the foil prevents the fat from
dripping into the drip tray. Grease will accumulate on the foil surface and
may catch fire. If you choose to use foil to cover the drip tray, be sure foil
is tucked neatly around the pan and does not touch the wall or heating
elements.
Toasting:
Always have the rack in the upper toasting position, as
indicated in the diagram on page 7, for even toasting. Always position
your item/items in the middle of the rack.
WARNING: Placing the rack in the lower position or in the upper
position with the rack upward while toasting may result in a fire.
Refer to rack position diagram on page 7 for proper use.
Turning off the toaster oven broiler:
Turn the OVEN dial and the
TOAST dial to OFF. The indicator light will turn off.
OPERATION
Unwind the power cord. Check that the crumb tray is in place and that
there is nothing in the oven. Plug power cord into the wall outlet.
Broil or Convection Broil
Set TEMPERATURE dial to Broil. Then set the OVEN dial to either Broil
or Convection Broil.
To stop Broil operation, turn OVEN dial to OFF position.
Note:
Never use glass oven dishes to broil.
Bake/Pizza
If making fresh pizza, place directly in the pan in the lower position.

then begin to bake. After cooking, you will need to turn off the oven
manually by turning the OVEN dial to the OFF position.

items, the pan can be in the lower position. Turn the TEMPERATURE dial
