Euro-Pro TO289 - Manual (Page 3)

Convection Cooking
Read all the sections of this booklet and follow all the instructions carefully.
Before Using Your Convection Toaster Oven
1. Read all of the instructions included in this manual.
2. Make sure that the oven is unplugged and the Time Control is in the
“OFF” position.
3. Wash all the accessories in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher.
4. Thoroughly dry all accessories and re-assemble in oven. Plug oven into
outlet and you are ready to use your new Toaster Oven with Convection.
5. After re-assembling your oven, we recommend that you run it at the
highest temperature (450° F.) on the Toast Function for approximately 15
minutes to eliminate any packing residue that may remain after shipping.
This will also remove all traces of odor initially present.
Please Note: Initial start-up operation may result in minimal smell and
smoke (about 15 minutes). This is normal and harmless.
It is due to burning of the protective substance applied to
the heating elements in the factory.

Using Your Convection Toaster Oven
Please familiarize yourself with the following oven functions and accessories
prior to first use:
• Temperature Control - Choose the desired temperature from 180°F (Keep
Warm) to 450° F for baking, broiling, toasting or grilling.
• Function Control - This oven is equipped with five positions for a
variety of cooking needs:
Bake w/Convection - Cakes, pies, cookies, poultry, beef, pork, etc.
Toast w/ Convection - Bread, muffins, frozen waffles, etc.
Grill - For grilling fish, steak, sandwiches, bacon & eggs, etc.
Broil w/ Convection - For broiling fish, steak, poultry, pork chops, etc.
Keep Warm - To keep cooked food warm for up to 30 minutes.
• Time Control - When you turn the control to the left, (counter-clockwise),
the oven will “STAY ON” until it is manually shut “OFF”. To activate the timer
segment of the control, turn to the right (clockwise) to toast or use as a timer.
This function also has a bell that rings at the end of the programmed time.
• Convection Fan - The convection fan works automatically on Broil, Bake
and Toast settings.
Convection cooking combines hot air movement by means of a fan with the regular
features (rotisserie, broil, bake and toast). Convection cooking provides faster cooking in
many cases than regular radiant types toaster ovens. The fan gently sends air to every
area of the food, quickly browning, crisping and sealing in moisture and flavor. It
produces more even temperature all around the food by air movement so that food
cooks/bakes/broils evenly versus the normal ovens hot and cold spots. The convection
feature allows cooking/baking at lower temperatures, which saves energy and helps
keep the kitchen cooler. Convection air is superheated and it circulates around the food
so it cooks food significantly faster than conventional ovens.
