BEFORE FIRST USE

It is normal to notice the following occur during the cooking cycle:

It is normal that during the broil function, the bottom set of elements turn off while the top set is heating at full power.

It is normal that the ends of each heating element will glow more brightly than the middle of the element.

It is normal that the elements are heating even if they are not lighting up.

This cooking technology allows foods to cook more evenly and quickly, significantly reducing cooking times. The oven’s preset cooking temperatures and times, as well as the cooking temperature and time directions on pre-packaged foods, may need to be changed depending on the recipe, the amount of food and your personal taste.

We recommend experimenting with the temperature and time settings to produce the desired results.

The cooking temperature and time can be adjusted before or during the cooking cycle.

Pressing the TEMP or TIME buttons changes the display on the LCD screen.

a)To change the cooking temperature, press the TEMP button until the LCD screen displays the temperature screen.

Press the down arrow to reduce the temperature, or press the up arrow to increase the temperature. A single push of the up or down button will adjust the time or temperature in single increments. To adjust the time or temperature rapidly, push and hold either the up or down arrow. The time or temperature will begin to adjust rapidly for as long as the button is pressed.

The cooking time can be adjusted in

5 second increments, up to 10 minutes when in TOAST and BAGEL setting. In all other settings, the cooking time can be adjusted in 1 minute increments up to 1 hour, and in 5 minute increments between 1 and 2 hours.

A NOTE ON RACK HEIGHT POSITIONS

Cooking results are significantly affected by the position of the wire rack as this determines how close the food is to the heating elements. We highly recommend following the rack height position for each function as printed on the right hand side of the oven door. However, these are a guide only. Certain foods may require a different rack height position depending on the recipe, the amount and size of the food and your personal taste.

Its compact size does not compromise cooking capacity; the Mini Smart Oven accommodates four slices of toast or a 10-inch pizza, making it quite versatile. The oven's interior is easy to clean, with a non-stick coating and removable crumb tray that simplifies maintenance. Furthermore, Breville has designed the appliance with an interior light, allowing users to keep an eye on their food without opening the door and losing heat.

Energy efficiency is another significant characteristic of this model. Consuming less energy than a full-sized oven, the Breville BOV450XL is ideal for quick meals or small batches, especially for those who live in apartments or smaller homes.
