SHORT CORD PURPOSE

Note : A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk of personal injury resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a long cord. Longer power-supply cords or extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.

If an extension cord is used: (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the product; (2) the extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can unintentionally be pulled on or tripped over by children or pets.

POLARIZED PLUG

  • If this appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other), please follow the below instructions:
  • To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If you are unable to fit the plug into the electrical outlet, try reversing the plug.
  • If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
  • Never use the plug with an extension cord unless the plug can be fully inserted into the extension cord.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Before using your appliance for the first time, be sure to:

  1. Read all the instructions included in this manual.
  2. Remove all packaging materials from the appliance.
  3. Make sure that the oven is unplugged and the Timer Knob (F) is in the “OFF” position.
  4. Wash the accessories (N, M, O, P, T, V) in hot, soapy water or the dishwasher. Also remove the rotisserie skewer (Q), and the skewer clamps (R) from the packaging and wash these in hot, soapy water.
  5. Thoroughly dry all accessories and reassemble them inside the oven. Plug the oven into the wall outlet and you are ready to use your new Toaster Oven with Rotisserie and griddle.
  6. After re-assembling your oven, we recommend that you run it at the highest temperature (450°F) on the Toast Function for approximately 15 minutes to eliminate any packing residue that may remain after shipping. This will remove all traces of odor or smoke that is initially present.

NOTE :
The initial 15 minutes of use may result in minimal smell and smoke. This is normal and harmless and comes from the protective substance applied to the heating elements during manufacturing.

HOW TO USE

Please familiarize yourself with the following oven functions and accessories before first use:

  • Temperature Control Knob (I): Choose the desired temperature from Keep Warm to 450°F for baking or rotisserie.

  • Function Control Knob (G): This oven is equipped with five positions for a variety of cooking needs.

  • Bake/Roast – Cakes, pies, cookies, poultry, beef, etc.

  • Toast – Bread, Bagels, muffins, frozen waffles, etc.

  • Rotisserie – Can cook up to a 5lb. roast or chicken

  • Griddle/Broil – For broiling fish, steak, poultry, pork chops, etc, and for making grilled cheese sandwiches, eggs, bacon, etc on the oven top.

  • Keep Warm – To keep cooked food warm for up to 30- minutes.

  • Timer Knob (F): When you turn the Timer Knob to the left (counter-clockwise), the oven will stay “ON” until it is manually shut “OFF”. To activate the timer segment of the control, turn to the right (clockwise) to toast or use as a timer. This function also has a bell that rings at the end of the programmed time.

  • ON-Light Indicator (H): Illuminated whenever the oven is turned on.

  • Rotisserie Skewer (Q): Roasts a variety of meats and poultry that are very tender and juicy inside, and browned to perfection outside. (Used with Rotisserie Clamps and thumbscrews (R & S) to secure food to the Skewer.)

  • Rotisserie Handle (T): Used for removing the rotisserie skewer from the oven after your food is done.

ROTISSERIE COOKING
We recommend that you do not cook a roast/chicken weighing more than 4-5lbs. on the skewer (Q). Chicken should be bound in food ties/string to prevent chicken legs or wings from unraveling during cooking; and to keep the rotisserie assembly rotating smoothly. For best results, we recommend that you preheat the oven for 15 minutes at 450°F.

OPERATION:

  1. Set the temperature control knob ( I ) to 450°F.
  2. Turn the function control knob (G) to Rotisserie. Insert the pointed end of the skewer clamp (R) through the rotisserie skewer (Q), making sure the points of the skewer clamp (R) face the same direction as the pointed end of the rotisserie skewer. Slide the skewer clamp (R) towards the square end of the skewer (Q) and secure with a thumbscrew (S).
  3. Place the food to be cooked onto the rotisserie skewer (Q) by inserting the skewer directly through the center of the food. Push the food to the end until the skewer clamp (R) pierces the food to secure it.
  4. Thread the second skewer clamp (R) through the skewer and pierce the food to secure and tighten with the second thumbscrew (S).
  5. Check that the food is centered on the rotisserie skewer.
  6. Insert the pointed end of the rotisserie skewer (Q) into the drive socket located on the right-hand side of the inside of the oven wall. Make sure the square end of the rotisserie skewer (Q) rests on the skewer support located on the left-hand side of the oven wall.
  7. Slide the Crumb Tray (P) into the lowest position slot right above the bottom heating element rods to catch food drippings.
  8. Turn the Timer Control Knob (F) to the “STAY ON” position.
  9. Use the Rotisserie Guide below for suggested roasting times. Check the doneness with a reliable meat thermometer. Use an independent timer to remind you to check the meat temperature periodically.
  10. When complete, turn the Timer Control Knob (F) to the “OFF” position.
  11. Remove the skewer by placing the hooks of the Rotisserie Removal Handle (W) under the grooves on either side of the skewer (Q). Lift the left side of the rotisserie skewer first by lifting it up and out. Then pull the rotisserie skewer out of the drive socket and carefully remove the roast from the oven. Take the meat off of the rotisserie skewer (Q) and place it on a cutting board or platter.

BUTTERMILK COOKIE BISCUITS make 15
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour pinch of salt 1 tsp baking powder ½ tsp baking soda 4 tbsp cold butter or margarine ¼ cup buttermilk

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Grease a baking sheet. Sift the dry ingredients first into a bowl. Rub the butter or margarine in until the dough becomes crumbly.

Place onto a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden. Serve warm or at room temperature. (You may need to repeat the baking process for the remaining dough.)

ALMOND CINNAMON COOKIE BALLS makes 15
1 ½ cups ground almonds 1/3 cup granulated sugar 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon 2 egg whites oil for greasing confectioners’ sugar for coating

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a baking sheet. (Make sure the baking sheet is the right size to fit into the oven.)

  • Bake for 15 minutes making sure that they remain soft on the inside. Too much baking time will result in hard cookies. Remove the cookie balls from the baking sheet and set aside to cool.
