Your Countertop Oven features 9 cooking modes specially designed for a variety of cooking
tasks. Memory settings allow you to customize the time and temperature in each mode to
t your specic needs. Your Countertop Oven will remember all your settings for the next
use (until unplugged). Frozen modes (available on certain cooking modes) allow you to take
countertop cooking to a whole new level.
Refer to the detailed explanations and tips for each cooking mode below, or see quick guide
charts for cooking or toasting mode options.
COUNTERTOP OVEN FUNCTIONS
TOASTING MODES
Toast Mode In Toast mode, the oven distributes power between the
top and bottom heating elements to deliver fast and even
toasting. Use the Toast mode for bread, toaster pastries,
frozen wafes.
If reheating pastries, use the Reheat mode.
Tips:
• Place oven rack in position 1. Place bread in the center
of the oven rack.
• Bread slices do not need to be ipped during the
toasting cycle.
• Select the Frozen option to allow frozen bread or similar

top and bottom heating elements to nicely brown the top
of cut bagels while gently warming the outside.
Tips:
• Place bagels directly on the oven rack with the cut sides
facing UP.
• Bagels do not need to be ipped during the Bagel cycle.

temperature.
Frozen mode:
Pizza setting will default to Frozen mode. You may use the
Frozen button to provide extra time for frozen pizzas to
cook, or deselect it when cooking freshly prepared pizzas.
Tips:
• For frozen pizzas, it is recommended to follow time and
temperature directions included on the food packaging.
• Thick crust, self-rising, or deep-dish pizzas will require
longer cooking times. Use a 12” (30 cm) non stick pan
for fresh or deep-dish pizzas to maintain shape and keep
sauce contained.
Cookies Mode In Cookies mode, your oven distributes power to the top
and bottom heating elements to maintain the desired oven
temperature.
Tips:
• Cookies will cook faster and more efciently because
their surface area is relatively small.
• Keep heat loss to a minimum by opening the oven door
only when necessary.

Broil Mode Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food from above.
Your oven will distribute power to the top two heating
elements. To deliver efcient broiling, the bottom elements
will run then shut off after the oven preheats.
Tips:
• For best results, use the 9” x 13” (23 cm x 33 cm)
multipurpose pan and rack. It is designed to drain juices
and help avoid spatter and smoke.
• For proper draining, do not cover the rack with foil.
Instead, the bottom of the multipurpose pan may be
lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.

PREHEATING
Preheating your Countertop Oven is important for consistent and even results. Once you
select your desired cooking mode and any other settings, and press START, and your oven will
saturate the walls and cooking racks above the oven’s set temperature to remove cold spots
that draw heat away from food. This also helps the oven stay at the desired temperature when
the door is opened for short periods of time.
During preheating, the light ring around the Start button will be on, and the Preheat indicator
will show on the LCD. Once the oven has reached the set temperature, a tone will sound to let
you know you can insert food and begin cooking. Preheating is NOT necessary in all cooking
modes.
To skip the Preheat and start the timer directly, push the START button a second time.
FROZEN MODE
The Frozen option adds additional cycle time to the selected cooking mode to allow for
thawing which helps in proper cooking of frozen food items. The additional time varies
depending on the selected cooking mode.
NOTE: The Frozen option is NOT available on Broil, Roast, Reheat, or Keep Warm cooking
mode.
