Toasting Tips

•When toasting only two slices of bread, place bread towards front of oven to get even toasting on top and bottom.

•To toast bagels, place oven rack in the middle position and place bagels cut side facing down. This will toast the cut side more than the outside of the bagel. Set the Toast Color Knob to desired setting.

•To toast English muffins, place oven rack in the middle

position and place English muffins with the split side facing down. Set Toast Color Knob to the dark setting.

•To toast regular toaster pastries, frozen pastry, or waffles, place oven rack in the middle position. Select a light color and toast directly on the oven rack. If pastry has a glaze of frosting, use baking pan.

•When toasting, condensation may form on the oven door. The moisture will slowly escape from the enclosed oven.

•The number of slices of bread and the bread freshness will affect toast color. For example, toasting 4 slices of bread will require a darker toast color setting than 2 slices of bread. Adjust the Toast Color Knob based on desired color and number of slices.

•If you are not satisfied with the color balance between the two sides of your food in the recommended rack position, select a different rack position.
