BEFORE THE FIRST USE
Unpack the appliance and place it on a horizontal surface. Remove out any insert card,
poly bag. Then use a damp cloth to carefully wipe the inner cavity wall and housing. Clean
all the detachable parts in hot, sudsy water before using.
NOTE:
1. Initial start-up operation may result in minimal smell and smoke (about 15 minutes).
This is normal. It is due to the protective substance on heating elements which protect
them from salt effects during shipping from factory. So it is recommended to operate
oven dry for about 15 minutes at the first, moreover, Make sure to keep good
ventilation of the room.
2. On the wall of inner cavity there are 2 different height of rack guide (slot).
3. You can place the rack at different height to achieve the best toasting performance
depending on the status of heat element and size of food. If only upper heat element is
energized it is suggest place the rack on the first slot to obtain the heat directly
provided that at least 30mm distance has maintained between top of food and top heat
element.

4. When setting the timer for less than 10 minutes, always rotate timer to over 10 minutes
and then rotate back to your chosen time. This will ensure a safe and accurate setting.
5. Always monitor the food during operating to ensure that you are not overcooking.
Caution: when removing the food from oven always use oven mitts to reduce the
possibility of getting scalding.
OPERATION
Toast
1. Rotate the temperature knob clockwise to “230℃”, dial the function knob to the
“ ” position at which both the heating elements will work. Open the oven door and
place the bread on the wire rack up to 6 slices side by side.
Note: 1) if only toasting one slice, place the slice at the center of the wire rack.
Generally toasting color for one slice is darker than that for four slices in the
same time.
2) Before operation, the crumb tray must be placed into position.
2. Choose your crust preference by adjusting the timer. Two minutes shall be needed if
you want to light brownness, 6 minutes for medium brownness, 10 minutes for dark
brownness. After setting timer, the power indicator will be illuminated. When the toast
cycle is finished the bell will ring and the electrical power is automatically turned off.
Remember that the longer the time you select, the darker the bread is.
3. To stop the cycle at any time, turn the timer to “0” position
Note: bread will burn so do not choose too long time, and close supervision is
necessary.
Bake (for baking biscuit, bread, cake, pizza (12’’) and so on
It is recommended to preheat the oven before putting on food. When the temperature of
cavity has reached the preset temperature the heat element will stop heating.
1. Set the operating temperature and time depending on thickness of your food and your
favor.
2. Turn the function knob to the “ ” position (details refer to the control panel on the

4. When finished, the timer will return to “0” position, the appliance and indicator will
automatically turn off.
5. Remove the food from the oven.
For broiling function, only the upper heating element will work, the setting is applicable
for browning the top surface of food or broiling the chops or steaks.
1. Turn the function knob to “Broil” position. And turn the temperature knob to “230℃”.
We recommend preheating 15 minutes with the door closed before broiling food to
achieve satisfactory result.
2. Place food in baking pan for broiling. Always use the baking pan on the wire rack when
broiling. Do not cover the wire rack with aluminum foil.
3. Place the baking pan on the wire rack and close the oven door.
4. Turn the timer again to desired cooking time.
5. When broiling the meat or fish, cook first side just to turn meat color then turn over to
finish second side to desired doneness. Brush each side with melted butter or olive oil.
Tips: For broiling the fish or chicken, it is suggested broiling skin-side down first. It is
unnecessary to turn over the fish fillet or lobster tails during broiling. Broiling one side
is enough. For broiling the lobster tails, cut through back of shell. Spread open. Brush
with melted butter after half of the boiling time.
5. When finished broiling, using oven mitt or pot holder, remove wire rack with baking
pan, and turn the timer knob to “0” position .
USEFUL TIPS
1. Condensation will appear on the oven door for some foods and then disappear. This is
normal.
2. Cook food immediately after defrosting.
3. Frozen foods and thick meat will take longer to cook.
4. When defrosting, place the food on the baking pan.
5. Avoid opening the oven door too frequently to prevent heat loss.
6. When toasting, frozen bread or many slices should be at a darker setting than 1 regular
slice.
7. When baking, smoke will likely appear. Removing excess fat prior to baking can reduce
this.
