BEFORE USING YOUR OVEN
Before cooking anything in your oven for the first time, please follow
these simple instructions:
Using a small amount of detergent, wash the handle and roasting racks with
soapy water.
(NOTE: Do not use a spray or abrasive polishing agent.) Gently wipe down
interior walls with a damp cloth. While washing this unit, do not to touch the
electric heating element. Do not soak the inside of the oven with water.
After washing and thoroughly drying the surfaces noted above, place the
roasting racks back inside the oven. Close the oven door and preheat the oven
to its highest temperature setting for 5 minutes.
Turn off the heating elements and open the oven door in order to remove any
smoky residue from inside the oven. The heating elements are well lubricated
and this initial use will help burn off the extra grease. A light amount of
smoke is normal during this process.

desired cooking temperature and turn on the timer dial to set the cooking
time.
CAUTION: During the baking process, make sure that no metal accessory
comes in contact with the electric heating elements.

coverings when reaching into the oven to retrieve food.
