IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug,
or toaster oven in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by
or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to
cool before cleaning appliance and putting on or taking off parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or
after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in
any manner. Call our toll-free customer service number for
information on examination, repair, or adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the
appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch
hot surfaces.
10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a
heated oven.
11. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance
containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
12. To disconnect, turn all controls to OFF (O); then remove plug
from wall outlet.
13. Use extreme caution when removing pan or disposing of hot
grease.
14. Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the
pad and touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electrical shock.
15. Oversize foods or metal utensils must not be inserted in a
toaster oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
16. A fire may occur if the toaster oven is covered, touching, or near
flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls, and the
like, when in operation. Do not store any item on top of the
appliance when in operation or before the appliance cools down.
17. Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers
constructed of materials other than metal or glass.
18. Do not store any materials, other than manufacturer-recommended
accessories, in this oven when not in use.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
wWARNING
Fire Hazard.
• If contents ignite, do not open oven door. Unplug oven and allow contents to stop burning and cool before
opening door.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one
wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only
one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be
used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal
to or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken
to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children
or accidentally tripped over.
This appliance is equipped with a fully tempered safety glass door.
The tempered glass is four times stronger than ordinary glass and
more resistant to breakage. Tempered glass can break; however, it
breaks into pieces with no sharp edges. Care must be taken to avoid
scratching door surface or nicking edges. If the door has a scratch or
nick, call our toll-free customer service number.
Always unplug your toaster oven from the outlet when not in use.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Most heating appliances produce an odor and/or smoke when used
the first time. Plug the toaster oven into an outlet. Turn Temperature
Dial to 450°F (230°C). Heat at this temperature for 10 minutes. The
odor should not be present after this initial preheating. Wash baking
pan, broil rack*, and oven rack before using.
NOTE: *Broil rack is an optional accessory on select models.
19. Do not place any of the following materials in the oven: paper,
cardboard, plastic, and the like.
20. Do not cover crumb tray or any part of the oven with metal foil.
This will cause overheating of the oven.
21. To turn oven off, turn Timer to OFF (O) position. See any of the
“How To” sections for specifics.
22. Do not place eyes or face in close proximity with tempered
safety glass door, in the event that the safety glass breaks.
23. Always use appliance with crumb tray securely in place.
24. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
25. Clean oven interior carefully. Do not scratch or damage heating
element tube.

How to Toast
2
13
Place oven rack in HIGH RACK
POSITION (shown) for toast, English
muffins, bagels, and waffles.
Turn Temperature Dial to BROIL/
TOAST.
Rotate Timer past 10 and then back to
desired toast color. A bell will sound
when the toast cycle is complete.
• When toasting only two
slices of bread, place bread
in center of toasting area
on high rack position to get
even toasting on top and
bottom.
• Toasting area does not
extend beyond rear cross
wire on oven rack. For best results, always
position bread, bagels, etc., within toasting area.
• To toast bagels, English muffins, and waffles,
place oven rack in HIGH RACK POSITION and
place food cut/split side facing up. This will toast
the cut/split side more than the outside food. Set
Timer to desired setting.
• To toast regular toaster pastries or frozen pastries,
place oven rack in the HIGH RACK POSITION.
Select a color lighter than Medium and toast directly
on the oven rack. If pastry has a glaze or frosting,
use baking pan.
• When toasting, condensation may form on the
oven door. The moisture will slowly escape from
the enclosed oven.
• The number of slices of bread and the bread
freshness will affect toast color. For example,
toasting 4 slices of bread will require a darker
toast color setting than 2 slices of bread.
Adjust the Timer based on desired color and
number of slices.
• If you are not satisfied with the color balance
between the two sides of your food in the
recommended rack position, select a different
rack position.
Fire Hazard.
• If contents ignite, do not open oven door.
Unplug oven and allow contents to stop
burning and cool before opening door.
• Do not leave appliance unattended when
in operation.
• Always unplug toaster oven when not in
use.

Place oven rack on HIGH RACK
POSITION or LOW RACK POSITION
(depending on food to be cooked).
LOW RACK POSITION shown.
Turn Temperature Dial to desired
temperature. Turn Function Dial to BAKE.
NOTE: Convection available
on select models only.
• Do not totally enclose foods in
aluminum foil. Foil can insulate
foods and slow down heating.
• To reheat rolls or biscuits, place on
baking pan and heat at 300ºF for
10 minutes.
• Reheat leftover roasts or
casseroles at 350ºF for 20 to
30 minutes or until heated
through.
• Bake foods, such as pizza, on the
HIGH RACK POSITION. Place food
directly on oven rack or in baking
pan.
• Bake foods, such as a whole
chicken, on the LOW RACK
POSITION. Place food in baking pan.
• Ovens with convection mode:
When baking pizza, use convection
setting and reduce cooking time
by 25%.

TIPS FOR USING
CONVECTION BAKE
NOTE: Convection Bake forces
more air to circulate in the oven,
so food will cook faster than the
conventional Bake setting.
• Ovens with convection mode:
When baking pizza, use
convection setting and reduce
cooking time by 25%.
• Bake at the same oven
temperature but for a shorter
period of time.
OR
• Bake for the same length
of time as the conventional
Bake setting, but reduce
the
temperature by about
25 degrees.
OR
• Bake for a slightly shorter period
of time AND at a reduced
temperature.

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM
Oven will not heat.
Moisture forms on
inside of oven door
when toasting.
An odor and smoke
come from oven.
Oven will not toast.
Some foods burn
and some are not
done.
PROBABLE CAUSE
• Check to make sure electrical outlet is working and the oven is plugged in. Turn Temperature Dial to
350°F (180°C). Turn Function Dial to BAKE; then turn Timer to STAY ON.
• This is normal when toasting in a toaster oven. Moisture is slower to escape from a toaster oven than
from a toaster. The amount of moisture will differ between fresh bread, bagels, and frozen pastries.
•Smoke and odor are normal during first use of most heating appliances. These will not be present after
initial heating period.
•Check to make sure outlet is working and oven is plugged in. Turn Temperature Dial to TOAST/BROIL.
Turn Function Dial to TOAST; then rotate Timer past 10 and then back to desired toast color.
•Adjust oven rack position to center food in oven.
• Adjust oven temperature or cooking time for best results with your recipes.
