GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Before first use, do the following:
•
Be sure room has adequate ventilation.
•
Place the toaster oven on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface, away from any
edge or flammable materials.
•
Make sure the crumb tray is securely positioned in place before operating.
•
Plug cord into 120 volt AC outlet only.
NOTE:
•
It is recommended operating oven without food for 15-20 minutes prior to first
use.
•
Be aware that there may be some smoke or unusual smells during first use.
This is normal. It is due to the protective coating on heating elements.
•
The minimum distance between the food and the upper heating element should
be at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) for uniform baking.
•
Baking pan can be placed above or below the wire rack.
