USING YOUR TOAST OVEN
TOASTING
1. Open the oven door and place the bread slice on the wire rack. One slice of bread is placed in
the center of wire rack, two slices side by side. Two slices will be lighter than one slice–adjust
timer accordingly.
NOTE:Remembertoremovethebakingpanrstlyforeventoastingresult.
2. Time setting
Turn the timer to the corresponding position depending on the bread color. Usually the time is
in the range of about 3-5 minutes. The more toasting time, the bread is darker. When setting
the timer dial for less than 5 minutes, always rotate Timer to over 5 minutes and then rotate
back to your desired time. This will ensure a safe and accurate timer setting. To interrupt the
toasting process just need to turn back the timer to Off position. When the timer has reached
to Off position a bell sound will be heard to prompt the completion of toasting, also the power
supply will be cut off automatically.

GRILLING (FOR CHICKEN WINGS AND DRUMSTICKS)
1. Put the baking pan above the wire rack and place the food on baking pan. Always use the
baking pan when grilling the food like chicken wings or drumstick with fat, as it can catch the
drippings when grilling the food.
NOTE : We always suggest preheating oven about 10 minutes before placing the food.
2. Set the time based on the food species, thickness. The heat element will be cycled on and off
to maintain the constant cavity temperature. For short time cooking, the time can’t be set more
than 15 minutes. For long time cooking (exceeding 15 minutes), you must set the timer to Stay
on position. In this case once the food is over you must stop the oven manually by turning the
Timer to Off position.
NOTE : Always monitor the food at this setting to prevent overcooking. Overturn the food during
theprocessoraddtheavorifnecessary.Alwaysuseovenglovestoavoidtheriskofscalding.
USEFUL TIPS
1. Condensation will appear on the oven door for some foods and then disappear. This is normal.
2. Frozen foods and thick meat will take longer to cook.
3. Avoid opening the oven door too frequently to prevent heat loss.
4. When toasting, frozen bread or many slices should be at a darker setting than 1 regular slice.
5. When baking, smoke will likely appear. Removing excess fat prior to baking can reduce this.
