Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household use only.
WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided with a polarized plug (one wide blade) to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.
This appliance is equipped with a fully tempered safety glass door. The tempered glass is four times stronger than ordinary glass and more resistant to breakage. Tempered glass can break; however, it breaks into pieces with no sharp edges. Care must be taken to avoid scratching door surface or nicking edges. If the door has a scratch or nick, call our customer service number.
Always unplug your toaster oven from the outlet when not in use.

Before first use: Most heating appliances produce an odor and/or smoke when used the first time. Plug Oven into an outlet. Turn Temperature Dial to 450°F (230°C). Heat at this temperature for 10 minutes. Odor should not be present after this initial preheating. Wash Air Frying Basket, Baking/Broiling Pan, and Oven Rack before using.
Air Fry Mode ( )
Use Air Fry mode to crisp foods using little added oil. Foods may need to be flipped, stirred, or rotated halfway during cooking. Air Fry Mode cooks and browns evenly by circulating forced hot air which crisps food with little to no added oil. Check food for doneness before recommended packaging cook time. For faster cooking, preheat Oven to reduce cooking time. Rack position used to air fry depends on the size of the food to be cooked. Keep at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) between food and heating elements. Place larger food in the middle rack position.
