Before First Use
- Read all instructions in this manual carefully. The information included in this book will guide you through the versatility of your oven.
- Place your oven on a level surface such as a countertop or table. Be sure the sides, back and top of the oven are at least four inches away from any walls, cabinets or objects on the counter or table. Remove all stickers from the oven except the ETL rating label. Remove Oven Rack, Drip Pan,
- Baking Pan, and Rotisserie Spit, Forks and kabobs and wash them in warm, soapy water or in the dishwasher. Dry thoroughly before placing in the oven.
- When you are ready to use the oven, be sure that the TIMER Control is in the “Off” position and unplugged. We recommend a trial run at a high temperature to familiarize yourself with your oven and to eliminate any protective substance or oil that may have been used for packing and shipping. Place the heating elements in the Toaster Oven configuration and plug the cord into a 120-volt AC outlet. Set the Temperature Control to 450 °F, the MODE Control to BAKE, and the TIMER Control to “20” minutes. A small amount of smoke and odor may be detected. This is normal.
- To avoid scratching, marring, discoloration or fire hazard, do not store anything on top of the oven, especially during operation. This appliance requires 1,500 watts and should be the only appliance operating on the circuit.

WARNING! To avoid a serious burn injury or fire hazard DO NOT attempt to move the position of your heating elements until the oven has completely cooled and is unplugged from the wall outlet.

The heating elements in your oven can be adjusted to work in either Toaster Oven MODE (see fig. 1) or Rotisserie MODE (see fig. 2). In Toaster oven MODE the elements are in the horizontal position which allows you to bake, toast, and broil like a traditional countertop oven. In Rotisserie MODE both elements are in the vertical position. This allows the dual element rotisserie to provide superior browning and faster cooking while allowing fats to drip down into the removable drip pan.
