HELPFUL HINTS ABOUT YOUR OVEN
• When the oven is turned on, the blue light will come on and remain illuminated until the oven
is turned off manually or automatically when the timer has been used.
• When selecting baking time for a particular product or recipe, include preheat time.
• This oven has a 60 minute timer. If baking something that will
take longer than 60 minutes, we suggest you use the STAY On
feature (F).
• Metal, ovenproof glass and ceramic bakeware without lids can
be used in the oven. If foods require covering, use aluminum
foil.
• Be sure the top of the container or food being baked or broiled
is at least 1½ inches away from the upper heating elements.
• Turn all controls to OFF before inserting or removing plug from
electrical outlet.
• Do not put any container directly on the lower heating element.
• To obtain the best performance from this toaster oven:
• Do not overfill the oven;
• To avoid heat loss do not open the door too frequently;
• When using foil to cover a food, tuck the edges of the foil against the sides of the baking
dish or pan.
OVERVIEW OF THE FUNCTIONS
Important: This oven gets hot. When in use, always use oven mitts or potholders when touching
any outer or inner surface of the oven.
For best results, preheat oven for 15 minutes at desired baking temperature before baking food.
BAKING
This oven bakes using conventional heat distribution.
1. Insert the slide rack into the lower rack position of the oven, engaging articulated hooks as
directed. You may also use the upper rack position, if desired.
2. Turn temperature selector to desired temperature from 150°F to 450°F
3. Turn cooking function selector to BAKE.
4. Turn time selector to 20 and then turn back or forward to desired baking time, including
preheat time. (Select STAY On to bake longer than 60 minutes or to control cooking time
yourself. Be sure to use a kitchen timer.)
Note: You must set the timer or select STAY On for the oven to function.
5. The blue On indicator light comes on and will remain lit during the entire baking time.
6. The heating elements will cycle on and off to maintain even heat distribution.
7. Once oven has preheated, open oven door and insert food. Close oven door.
Note: You can bake 3 ways:
• Use the bake pan/drip tray pan placed on the slide rack.
• Place the broil rack in the bake pan/drip tray and place the food
directly on the rack (G).
Note: Be sure food does not extend past the edges of the bake pan/
drip tray to prevent grease dripping onto the heating elements.
• Use a metal, oven proof glass or ceramic baking dish placed on
the rack in either the upper or lower slot positions. (Be sure food
or baking dish does not come within 1½ inches of the top heating
elements.) (H).
8. The first time you use the oven, bake following the manufacturers’
or recipe directions and check for doneness at minimum suggested
cooking time. If using the oven timer, there will be an audible
signal once the baking cycle is complete. The oven turns OFF and
the light goes out.

cycle is complete.
