Toaster Oven is equipped with all the options of a full-size oven in a
countertop appliance; toasts, bakes and broils.
NOTE: During initial start up you may detect a slight smell and/or smoke. Turn the
temperature to max and let run for approximately 5 minutes.
PREHEATING THE OVEN
1. Place oven rack into the desired position before heating the oven. (See “Positioning
Rack” Section)
2. Turn the temperature control/function selector knob ( ) to the desired temperature or
setting.
3. Set the timer knob ( ) to desired time and allow 7 – 9 minutes for the oven to
preheat.
TO USE THE TOAST FUNCTION
1. Place oven rack in Broil/Toast position. Place food on rack.
2. Turn function knob to Toast ( ).
3. Rotate Toast Color Control/Timer Dial ( ) clockwise past 10 minutes then back to
desired toast shade ( ).
IMPORTANT: When choosing Toast color light ( ), medium (set between light and dark)
and dark ( ), always rotate timer over 10 minutes and then rotate back to Dark, Medium
or Light. This will ensure that the timer operates correctly and safely. When the toast
cycle is finished the bell will ring and the electrical power is automatically turned off. To
stop the cycle at any time, turn the timer counterclockwise to the “Off” position and the
bell will ring. In this cycle both the top and bottom heating elements operate, however
they may not glow red-hot. Please note this is normal and they are operating properly.
TO USE THE BAKE FUNCTION
1. Place the food on the baking pan and then place the pan on the top of the Wire Rack
in the oven. Close the oven door.
NOTE: We suggest to always preheat the oven before placing the food inside.
2. Rotate the Temperature Dial to the desired temperature.
3. After rotating the Temperature Dial to your desired temperature, then you must select
from the following options on the Timer Dial.
• For items requiring shorter baking times, rotate the Timer Dial clockwise (up to 30
min). At the sound of the bell, the bake function will automatically turn “Off.”
• For longer baking times, rotate the Timer Dial counterclockwise to the “Stay On”
setting. Baking will continue until the Timer Dial is manually turned to the “Off”
position and the bell will sound.
• During this cycle, both the top and bottom heating elements operate.
NOTE: Always monitor the food at this setting to ensure that you are not overcooking. Do
not use oven plastic or paper cooking bags in the toaster oven.
