BEFORE FIRST USING TOASTER OVEN

Before using your toaster oven for the first time, you must:

  1. Make sure that the oven is unplugged, then,
  2. Wash all the accessories in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher.
  3. Thoroughly dry all accessories and re-assemble the oven, connect the power supply.
  4. After re–assembling your oven, we recommend that you run it at the highest temperature (450ºF) on the toast function (upper & lower heating) for 15 minutes to eliminate any packing residue that may remain after shipping. This will also remove all traces of odor initially present.

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.
