OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before Using Your Oven
Before using your mini oven for the first time, be sure to:
1. Read all of the instructions included in this manual.
2. Make sure that the oven is unplugged and the Timer Knob is in the “OFF” position.
3. Wash all the accessories in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher.
4. Thoroughly dry all accessories and re-assemble in the oven, plug the oven into an appropriate outlet
and it is ready to use.
5. After re–assembling your oven, we recommend that you run it at the highest temperature (230°C)
on the Roast Function ( ) for approximately 15 minutes to eliminate any packing residue that
may remain after shipping. This will also remove any traces of odor initially present.
Note: Initial start-up operation may result in minimal smell and smoke (for about 15 minutes). This is
normal and harmless. It is due to burning of the protective substance applied to the heating elements in
the factory.
Please familiarize yourself with the following oven functions and accessories prior to first use:

muffins, frozen waffles, pizza ,etc.
