ALL OBJECTS BEFORE YOU TURN ON YOUR

GENERAL GUIDELINES
Conventional Baking: Conventional baking is
used as you would normally use your large
kitchen oven .
Convection/Bake: The convection/bake
function can be used for all the same functions
as conventional bake or roast, but will cook
faster and more efficiently . With convection
baking the key is the airflow, so it is important to
use the right cooking pan and place it in the
oven as directed in the rack position in each
recipe .
Broiling: Broiling can be used for beef, chicken,
pork, fish and more . Broiling can also be used
to top-brown casseroles and gratins . Caution:
Aluminum foil is not recommended for covering
the broiling pan . Foil is extremely dangerous
when broiling fatty foods . Grease will
accumulate and may catch fire . We don’t
recommend the use of foil, but if foil is used to
cover drip tray, be sure foil is tucked neatly
around the pan and does not touch the walls or
heating rods . Never cover crumb tray .
Toasting: Always have the rack in rack position
B, as indicated in the diagram on page 11 for
even toasting . Always center your item/items in
the middle of the rack .
WARNINg: Placing the rack in the bottom
position or in the top position with the rack
turned upward 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 .
USE AND CARE
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 Bake button . The LED light
above the Bake button will turn on . The oven
temperature is preset for 150°F . Press the temp

desired temperature . Note that the temperature
will increase and decrease in increments of 25ºF .
The temperature will read out on the clock
display . Press the Start/Stop button to start the
oven . When oven reaches the selected
temperature, the words “Temp . Ready” will be
displayed on the clock display, and the oven will
beep 5 times to let you know it is ready to bake .
The built-in timer can be used with this function .

NOTE: AS A SAFETY MEASURE, THIS OVEN
WILL AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF AFTER
FOUR HOURS OF CONTINUOUS USE .
NEVERTHELESS, ALWAYS UNPLUG THE OVEN
WHEN NOT IN USE AND NEVER LEAVE THE
OVEN ON WHEN UNATTENDED .
PIZZA
When baking pizza, please follow these guide-
lines:
• 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 rack position B .
• If baking a frozen pizza, you can place the
pizza directly on the rack in position B .
CONVECTION BAKE
Convection baking/roasting uses a fan to
circulate heated air around food as it cooks . For
best results use cookie sheets with no sides and
baking dishes and roasting pans with very low
sides to let maximum airflow reach food . For the
same reason, do not cover foods while cooking .
Most baking recipes recommend reducing
temperatures by 25 degrees when using the
convection feature . Always check 10 minutes
before suggested cooking time .
If food might drip, place the baking tray on the
rack below the rack that the food is on . Tray will
catch drips and more airflow will reach food .
When using the baking tray in the bottom rack
position, center it so air flows in back, as well as
front of the oven .
To convection bake, press the Conv Bake
button . The LED light above the Conv Bake
button will turn on . The oven temperature is
preset for 150ºF . Press the Temp button and the
Up arrow to increase the temperature or Down
arrow to decrease to your desired temperature .
