Oven will not heat.
• Check to make sure electrical outlet is working and the oven is
plugged in. Rotate the temperature knob to the desired temperature
setting.
• Make sure mode selector is set to OVEN.
Moisture forms on inside of oven door when toasting.
• This is normal when toasting in a toaster oven. Moisture is slower
to escape from toaster oven than from a toaster. The amount
of moisture will differ between fresh bread, bagels, and frozen
pastries.
An odor and smoke comes from oven.
• Smoke and odor are 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.
• Adjust oven temperature or cooking time for best results with your
recipes.
Troubleshooting
Bread, bagel, or English muffin didn’t toast as expected.
• Toasting is affected by the temperature of the bread. Room-
temperature bread may toast to a medium color on the medium
setting. The same type of bread that has been refrigerated may
require a darker setting to reach a medium color.
• The moisture content will also affect toasting. Fresh bagels, made
locally, will have a higher moisture content than bagels purchased
in the bread section of the supermarket. A second, shorter toasting
cycle may be needed to reach desired brownness. Fresh bagels
made locally may require two toasting cycles.
• Because of the irregular surface of English muffins, they may
require more than one toasting cycle. After toasting for one cycle
on the darkest setting, if a darker shade is desired, adjust shade
selector to a lighter setting and toast for a second cycle. Watch
closely to avoid overbrowning. English muffins cut with a knife toast
more evenly than English muffins split with a fork.
Food is wedged in the toaster slot.
• If food becomes jammed, the toaster will automatically shut off at
the end of the toasting cycle. Unplug the toaster and let cool. Turn
toaster upside down and shake. Do not use fork or other utensil that
could damage heating element or result in risk of fire or electrical
shock.
