BEFORE THE FIRST USE

BEFORE THE FIRST USE

Place your oven on a flat surface. Remove any packaging and promotional labels in or on the oven. Unwind the power cord. Check that the crumb tray is in place and check that there is nothing inside or on top of the oven. Plug power cord into wall outlet.

Before using your oven, make sure it is two to four inches away from the wall or from any objects on the countertop. Do not use on heat-sensitive surfaces. DO NOT STORE OBJECTS ON THE TOP OF THE OVEN.

IF YOU DO, REMOVE ALL OBJECTS BEFORE YOU TURN ON YOUR OVEN. THE EXTERIOR WALLS GET VERY HOT WHEN IN USE. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

GENERAL GUIDELINES

Deactivating Oven Sounds: You have the option of turning off the electronic beeping sounds. To deactivate all beeps, push the Up and Down Arrow buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds. To reinstate all beeps, repeat by again pushing both Arrow buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds. If you unplug the oven all beeps will turn back on.

Pizza/Bake: Use this feature as you would normally in your large kitchen oven.

Convection Bake: The convection bake function can be used for all the same functions as Pizza/Bake. A fan circulates the heat so food will cook faster. This is best used for breads, cakes or any other baked goods.

Broiling: Broiling can be used for beef, chicken, pork, fish and more. Broiling can also be used to top-brown casseroles and gratins.

Toasting: Always have the rack in the Upper position, as indicated in the diagram on page 5 for even toasting. Always place your items in the center of the rack.

WARNING: Placing the rack in the Lower position while toasting may result in a fire. Refer to rack position diagram for proper use.

Turning off the toaster oven broiler: The Start/Stop button, when pushed the first time, will start the oven. When pushed the second time, during oven operation, the Start/Stop button will turn the oven off. You will know the oven is off when the LED light turns off.

OPERATION

Unwind the power cord. Check that the crumb tray is in place and that there is nothing in the oven. Plug power cord into the wall outlet.

PIZZA/BAKE

To bake, press the Pizza/Bake button. The LED light above the Bake button will turn on. The oven temperature is preset for 300°F. Press the Temp button and the Up arrow to increase the temperature or Down arrow to decrease to your desired temperature. Note that the temperature will increase and decrease in increments of 25ºF. The temperature will read out on the display. You must set the time by pressing the Timer button and then the Hour and Min buttons. Press the Start/Stop button to start the oven. When oven reaches the selected temperature, the words “Temp Ready” will be displayed in the display, and the oven will beep 5 times to let you know it is ready to bake.

The oven will automatically turn off when the time elapses.

When baking pizza, please follow these guidelines:

If baking fresh pizza, use the baking tray/pan provided with this toaster oven.

Sprinkle the pan with cornmeal or lightly spray to make removing the pizza dough easier.

Bake in the Lower position for a fresh or frozen pizza.

CONVECTION BAKE

Convection baking uses a fan to circulate heated air around food as it cooks.

Most baking recipes recommend reducing temperatures by 25 degrees when using the convection feature. Always check 10 minutes before suggested cooking time.
