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.
TIME CONTROL AND OFF KNOB
When you turn this knob to the le (counter-clockwise) to the
STAY ON position, the 4-Slice Toaster Oven will remain on until
it is manually shut o. Turn the knob to the right (clockwise) to
set the required time for toasting, broiling, or baking. When the
time has elapsed or when the timer knob is manually turned to
the OFF position, a bell will sound and the 4-Slice Toaster Oven
will shut o automatically.
The 4-Slice Toaster Oven has a fully automatic 60-minute timer.
When setting the timer for less than 10
minutes, turn the timer past 10 minutes and
then back to the desired time as per gure 2.
Place the oven on a at, dry, heat-resistant surface, such as a countertop or table. Be sure the
sides, back and top of the 4-Slice Toaster Oven are at least 10 cm (4") away from any walls,
cabinets, or objects on the counter or table. Ensure the pull-down crumb tray is secure underneath
the bottom element. See Cleaning Your 4-Slice Toaster Oven instructions on page 14 for proper
crumb tray position. Plug the cord into a 120 V~60 Hz AC-only outlet. This appliance requires
1000 watts and should be the only appliance operating on the circuit. The 4-Slice Toaster Oven is
now ready to use.
We recommend a trial run at a high temperature to familiarize yourself with your 4-Slice Toaster
Oven and to eliminate any protective substance or oil that may have been used for packing and
shipping. Remove the rack and baking pan from oven. Set the temperature control knob to 230°C
(450°F) and the time control to 15 minutes. A small amount of smoke and odour may be detected.
This is normal on rst use.

Toasting
When this function is used, both the top and bottom elements will heat continuously.
1. For best results, do not use drip/baking pan when toasting. Put the bread to be toasted directly
on the rack in the centre of the toaster oven. Close the door. You can toast up to four slices of
bread in your toaster oven. When toasting only one or two slices of bread, make sure the slices
are centered inside the toaster oven.
2. Turn the temperature control clockwise to the toast setting.
3. Turn the timer clockwise to your desired toasting shade, from LIGHT to DARK.
For your rst toasting, we recommend positioning the timer knob in the middle
of the toasting shades. Adjust the shade to your preference in subsequent toastings.
4. When the toast is done, the bell will ring and the toaster oven will automatically shut o.
When setting the timer for less than 10 minutes, turn the timer past 10 minutes and then
back to the desired time.
5. When toast is done, use protective oven mitts or pot holders to open the door and remove rack.
NOTE: A preheated toaster oven will result in a faster toasting time.
NOTE: It is normal for condensation to form on the door when toasting moist or
fresh breads.
NOTE: Experience will teach you how much time to use for toasting various kinds
of bread. Frozen, dark, or whole grain breads require a longer toasting time, while
fresh, so, or white breads require a shorter toasting time.

Tips for Using Your 4-Slice Toaster Oven
• Caution should be observed when using glass bakeware, especially when your recipe calls for
the food to be cooked close to the heating elements, or when high temperatures are used.
• Make sure when using deep, ovenproof glass or ceramic containers to allow at least 2.5 cm
(1") airspace between the top of the container and the upper heating elements.
• Never use glass lids on glass or metal bakeware. If a lid is necessary, cover tightly with
aluminum foil.
• Many convenience foods are packaged in non-metallic containers suitable for use in
microwave ovens as well as regular ovens. Check package directions to determine if the
container is suitable for use in a regular oven.
• You may use your own heat-proof pans, sheets and dishes in the oven, provided that
approximately 2.5 cm (1") of space remains between the sidewalls of the oven and the
heating elements to allow circulation of heat.
ALUMINUM FOIL
Do not allow for aluminum foil to touch the sides of the oven or heating elements. Foil can be used
for covering foods, provided they are securely tucked around the food or edges of the pan or dish.
Do not cover the baking/drip pan or crumb tray with aluminum foil, as this can cause accumulated
grease or crumbs to catch re.
NOTE: Choose bakeware made of metal, ovenproof glass, or ceramic.
WARNING:
• Use the tempered-glass window to check on your food. The less you open the
door, the more energy-ecient your 4-Slice Toaster Oven will be.
• Be sure all foods and/or containers t in the 4-Slice Toaster Oven without
touching heating elements or keeping the door from closing.
• Remove all plastic and/or paper wrappers from foods before cooking.
• Use only loosely covered containers; airtight containers may cause food to boil
over or explode.
• Follow package directions when preparing frozen or packaged foods; however,
do not preheat the 4-Slice Toaster Oven.
• Metal surfaces will become hot during cooking. Always use protective oven
mitts or pot holders to open and close the door.
• Do not place items on top of or near your 4-Slice Toaster Oven while in use.
• Replace cardboard, glass, or plastic lids with aluminum foil for use in the
4-Slice Toaster Oven.

(1") airspace between the top of the container and the upper heating elements.
• Never use glass lids on glass or metal bakeware. If a lid is necessary, cover tightly with
aluminum foil.
