Both the top and bottom elements will heat when this function is used. Recommended Positions: Use the lower slots along oven walls. Slide in the Wave-Rack™ oven rack, using a rack-up orientation (see Position C on page 8).

1.For best results, place the bread to be toasted directly on the rack and toward center of the oven.

TIP: For more consistent results, preheat oven for 5 minutes prior to first batch of toast.

7.The bell will ring and the oven will automatically shut off when the Countertop Oven has finished toasting.

8.Turn the Time control knob to 0 (off) if toast is removed before the bell rings.
