IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or appliance in water or other liquid.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow time to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or if the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Contact consumer support at the toll-free number listed in the warranty section.
The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
To disconnect, turn the Timer and Toast shade knobs to the O position (OFF). Then unplug from wall outlet.
Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
Use caution when removing tray or disposing of hot grease.
Do not clean oven with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, causing risk of electric shock.
Do not attempt to clean the heating elements.
Oversized foods or metal utensils must not be inserted in a toaster oven, as they may create fire or risk of electric shock.
A fire may occur if the toaster oven is covered or touching flammable materials including curtains, draperies, walls, and the like, when in operation. Do not store any item on top of the unit while in operation.
Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of other than metal or glass.
Do not store any material, other than manufacturer’s recommended accessories, in this oven when not in use.
Do not place any of the following materials in the oven: paper, cardboard, plastic, and other items not constructed of oven safe metal and glass pans.
Do not cover crumb tray or any part of this oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating in the oven.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instructions concerning use
of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.
Do not leave unattended while in operation. Food ignition may occur. If this happens, unplug the unit, but DO NOT open door. To reduce the risk of fire, keep oven interior completely clean and free of food residues, oil, grease and other combustible materials.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This product is for household use only.

GROUNDED PLUG
As a safety feature, this product is equipped with a grounded plug, which will only fit into a three-prong outlet. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. Improper connection of the grounding conductor may result in the risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.

ELECTRICAL CORD

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
If an extension cord is used:
The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord; and
The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
Note: If the power cord is damaged, please contact the warranty department listed in these instructions.

CAUTION: THIS OVEN GETS HOT. WHEN IN USE, ALWAYS USE OVEN MITTS OR POT HOLDERS WHEN TOUCHING ANY OUTER OR INNER SURFACE OF THE OVEN.

Important information about using your oven

This oven gets hot. When in use, always use oven mitts or potholders when touching any outer or inner surface of the oven.
When using the oven for the first time, you may notice smoke or a slight odor during the first few minutes. This is normal.
Be sure food or baking pan does not come within 1 1/2 inches (3.8 cm) of the top heating elements.
Food should not extend beyond the edges of the baking pan to avoid drippings from falling onto the heating elements.
Many factors influence cook times such as altitude, humidity and variations in electrical grids. For best results, monitor the end of the cook cycle.
Cooking Containers: Metal, ovenproof glass or ceramic bakeware can be used in your oven. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Be sure the top edge of the container is at least 1 1/2 inches (3.81cm) away from the upper heating elements.
Temperatures in the oven will be lower than your set point. This is due to advanced heating elements used in this oven. Temperature dial settings have been calibrated to provide expected results for most recipes taking into account the advanced heating elements.
You must set the timer or select Stay On for the oven to function.
You can cook your food 3 ways:
- Use the bake pan/drip tray placed on the slide rack.
- Place the bake pan/drip tray under the slide rack / broil rack.
- Place food on Air Fry mesh rack

BAKE

Note: For best results, when baking or cooking, preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes at the desired temperature setting.
Note: This oven has been designed to cook rapidly. Please inspect your items earlier than the prescribed cook time for a conventional oven to ensure that they do not get overcooked.
Open oven door and insert rack to the middle rack position.

Place items to be baked directly on wire rack or place pan on wire rack.
If the items are going to be placed directly on the wire rack, slide the baking pan into the guide under the wire rack to catch drippings during baking.
Set temperature selector knob to the desired temperature.
Turn TIMER selector knob to 20 and then turn to desired baking time. Select Stay On to bake longer than 60 minutes or to control cooking time yourself. The power indicator light comes on and remains on during the entire baking time.
Note: You must set the timer for the oven to function.
Once oven has preheated, open oven door and insert food. Close oven door.
If using the oven timer, there will be an audible signal once the baking cycle is complete. The oven turns off and the power indicator light goes out. If not using the oven timer, turn the oven off once the cooking cycle is complete.
Open the oven door. Using oven mitts or pot holders, slide the rack out to remove the cooked food.
Unplug appliance when not in use.

AIR FRY

Air Fry technology uses high intensity hot air to bake, brown, and crisp your favorite fried foods with little to no oil. This mode operates the oven at 425°F. Use the cook times listed in the cooking chart on page 10 or follow the food package recommendations for baking. Adjust the cook time as needed to achieve your preferred crispiness.
Note: It is not necessary to preheat the oven for air frying.

If using the oven timer, there will be an audible signal once the Air Fry cycle is complete. The oven turns off and the power indicator light goes out. If not using the oven timer, turn the oven off once the cooking cycle is complete.
Open the oven door. Using oven mitts or pot holders, slide the rack out to remove the cooked food.
Note: Clean out the crumb tray frequently when using the air fry setting.
