Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.

This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by modifying the plug in any way.

The length of the cord used on this appli- ance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the

toaster oven. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.

This appliance is equipped with a fully tempered safety glass door. The tempered glass is four times stronger than ordinary glass and more resistant to breakage. Tempered glass can break, however it breaks into pieces with no sharp edges. Care must be taken to avoid scratching door surface or nicking edges. If the door has a scratch or nick, call our toll-free customer assistance number.

Always unplug your toaster oven from the outlet when not in use.

To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high wattage appliance on the same circuit with your toaster oven.

Before First Use

Most heating appliances produce an odor and/or smoke when used for the first time. Plug toaster oven into outlet. Turn the Oven Control Switch to 450°F. Set Toast Shade Selector/Timer to Oven ON. Heat at this temperature for 10 minutes. The odor should not be present after this initial preheating.

Remove baking pan, broil rack, and oven rack. Wash in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry.

Pan Sizes

The following pans should fit your toaster oven. To be sure, place the pan in the oven to check the fit before preparing the recipe.

8- and 9-inch round or square baking pans 6-cup muffin pan

8x4-inch loaf pan

9x5-inch loaf pan

Most 1 to 112 quart casserole dishes

Warming & Reheating Tips!

Do not totally enclose foods in aluminum foil. Foil can insulate foods and slow down reheating.

To reheat rolls or biscuits, place on baking pan and heat at 300°F for 10 minutes.

Reheat leftover roasts or casseroles at 350°F for 20 to 30 minutes or until heated through.
