Preparing your dome oven with “captive heat technology” (rst use)
It’s necessary to run your Dome Oven without food(s) for it’s rst use for 12-15 minutes to ensure manufacturing
substances are eliminated. Ensure the area is well ventilated as the Dome Oven may emit mild vapors which are
safe and do not affect the performance of the Dome Oven.
1. Place Dome Oven on a at and dry surface. Ensure the unit is clear of any packing materials and has 4 to 6
inches of clearance on all sides. Never allow anything to rest against the Dome Oven surfaces.
2. Insert the power plug into a 120V wall outlet.
3. Turn the dial indicator to 450 degrees. The power indicator will illuminate. Please note that the power
indicator will illuminate during heating and turn off once unit has reached desired, set temperature.
4. Allow the Dome Oven to heat for 12-15 minutes.

Operating your dome oven with “captive heat technology”
The Karrsen Dome Oven with “Captive Heat Technology” features a patented heating technology that allows you
to bake, roast and cook some foods much faster than conventional toaster, roaster and household ovens.
***We have provided some suggested temperature settings and cooking times. However, due to the
speed of which the Dome Oven cooks some foods compared to conventional toaster ovens, roaster ovens
and household ovens , we encourage experimenting with these depending on recipes, amounts of food
and your personal tastes and preferences.

is activated.

*NOTE: If Dome Lid is removed, the inside temperature will decrease substantially and therefore will need to achieve
desired/set temperature once lid is replaced on the Bottom Pan.

cook times can be up to 40% faster depending on type of food being cooked.

Dome Lid. Always use Silicone or other heat resistant Protective gloves or pot holders when handling the Dome Lid,
Reversible Cooking Rack or Bottom Pan.

surface, To prevent damage always use Cooling Racks provided with unit.
