Countertop Oven Use Tips
Setting very short times
When setting timer for 5 minutes or less,
turn the Time control knob beyond the
10-minute mark. Then, turn the knob
back to the desired time.
Are guesstimates okay?
Experience will teach you how much
time to use for toasting various kinds of
bread. Frozen, dark or whole grain breads
require a longer time. Fresh, soft or white
breads require a shorter time.
For foods that melt
When cooking small pieces of foods or
foods that will melt, use the broil pan.
This will prevent food from falling onto
the cooking elements.
To minimize cleanup
Spray the broil pan with nonstick cooking
spray for easier cleanup when cooking
wet or sticky foods. Wash pan thoroughly
after each use to prevent buildup of
cooking spray.
Size limits for food
For best results, food and/or oven-safe
containers (see section on “Choosing
Bakeware for Countertop Use,” page 12)
must fit into the Countertop Oven without
touching the cooking elements or inside walls
of oven. The door must close completely.
When oven is off
Turn the Temperature control knob
to Warm, or minimum setting, when
Countertop Oven is not in use.
For extended use
When cooking for a long time at high
temperatures, you may detect a slight
odor from the oven insulation materials.
This is normal.
