Countertop Oven Use Tips

Setting very short times

When setting timer for 5 minutes or less, turn the Time control knob beyond the 10-minute mark. Then, turn the knob back to the desired time.

Are guesstimates okay?

Experience will teach you how much time to use for toasting various kinds of bread. Frozen, dark or whole grain breads require a longer time. Fresh, soft or white breads require a shorter time.

For foods that melt

When cooking small pieces of foods or foods that will melt, use the broil pan. This will prevent food from falling onto the cooking elements.

To minimize cleanup

Spray the broil pan with nonstick cooking spray for easier cleanup when cooking wet or sticky foods. Wash pan thoroughly after each use to prevent buildup of cooking spray.

Size limits for food

For best results, food and/or oven- safe containers (see section on “Choosing Bakeware for Countertop Use,” page 14) must fit into the Countertop Oven without touching the cooking elements or inside walls of oven. The door must close completely.

When oven is off

Turn the Temperature control knob to Warm, or minimum setting, when Countertop Oven is not in use.

For extended use

When cooking for a long time at high temperatures, you may detect a slight odor from the oven insulation materials. This is normal.
