Directions for Automatic Toasting, Cooking Pizza

4) DIRECTIONS FOR AUTOMATIC TOASTING

• For toasting, place the slices of bread as shown below:

Toasting one slice

Toasting two slices

Toasting four slices

For consecutive toasting, turn the “TOAST START” dial to a lower setting.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR TOASTING

Always use the oven wire rack for toasting bread, sandwiches, English muffins, shelf foods and frozen waffles automatically.

1.Place the wire rack in upper shelf position (position 5 for toast, or position 6 for toasted sandwiches).

2.Center the food to be toasted on the wire rack. Close the door.

3.Turn the lower knob to “TOAST”. When toasting, both the top and bottom heating elements switch on to brown both sides of the food at the same time.

Condensation may build up on the inside of the glass door. This is normal. The condensation will evaporate during the toasting cycle.

4.Set the upper knob to the desired brownness.

When using the toaster-oven-broiler for the first time, set the upper knob to a medium setting. Toast a few pieces of bread to check for desired brownness. If necessary, adjust the control to suit your preference.

5.A ring indicates the end of the set time. The toasting cycle has been completed and the heating elements will shut off automatically.

NOTE: This toaster-oven-broiler is capable of toasting in a wide range of colours, automatically from light to dark. However, if you prefer a lighter shade of toast, simply interrupt the automatic toast cycle by turning the upper knob to “OFF”. This will shut the unit off without damaging the oven.

If you prefer a darker shade, restart the toasting cycle by turning the upper knob clockwise until the desired colour is obtained.

Then switch off manually as described earlier.

HINTS FOR TOASTING SUCCESS

Heavier breads and frozen breads will require a darker setting. One slice of bread will require a lighter setting than several slices.

5) COOKING PIZZA

1.Place the wire oven rack in the lower position and place the special pizza stone on the rack (position 7).

2.Turn the upper knob to "ON".

3.Set the lower knob to 450°F and pre-heat the oven for 5 - 7 minutes.

4.Place the pizza on the pizza stone.

5.Close the oven door. After about 10 minutes, turn the selector to "PIZZA" and leave it in this position until the pizza is cooked (about 8 minutes).

6.When the pizza is cooked, turn the upper knob back to "OFF" and then turn the lower knob to position "●".
