PPT08 Electric Oven Toaster with Temperature Selector

ELECTRIC OVEN TOASTER with Temperature Selector PPT08
The Electric Oven Toaster PPT08 is really more Oven than Toaster, yet is compact and can be put away when not in use or when the countertop gets crowded. There’s no installation cost, costs less to purchase and uses a fraction of the energy of a fullsized conventional oven. During hot weather, it also doesn’t make your entire kitchen hotter.
This appliance is great at Reheating leftovers and doesn’t make your food soggy or chewy. It is also great at Broiling, where proximity to the heating element is crucial. You can broil seafood (salmon steaks, shrimps coated in butter), sliced vegetables, even marshmallows.
It is perfect for Ro a sting, producing well-browned, succulent meat still filled with juices. The crispy skin is a major plus of roasting chicken in the toaster oven. It is equally capable at Grilling peppers, onions and mushrooms, making them tender and delicious; or burgers, hot dogs or bacon as they are grilled evenly on both sides.
PPT08 excels at Baking, both savoury (casserole) and sweet (molten chocolate cake) as it’s accurate at regulating temperature.
Of course, it is excellent for Toasting breads. Everybody loves juicy burgers or chicken sandwiches; this appliance can grill the meat and vegetables, and also toast the bread.
When if we compare this appliance with microwaves, toasters or conventional ovens, then it is the most economical way of cooking. The chances of burning your meal are also very low compared to using a conventional oven or microwave. It is very easy to operate, and cleaning it needs minimal effort.

If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a qualified technician in order to avoid a shock hazard.

5. Before powering the appliance make sure the rating (voltage and frequency) corresponding to the grid and the socket is suitable for the plug of the appliance, and that the wall socket is properly grounded. This appliance is fitted with an earth wire for extra safety.

6. DO NOT power the appliance using multiple sockets. If possible, avoid the use of adapters and/or extension cables; if their use is absolutely necessary, use only materials in compliance with the current safety regulations and according to the electrical parameters of the adapters.

7. The appliance must NOT be switched on using external timers and/or other remote control appliances which are not specified in this manual.

9. The packing materials (plastic bags, expanded polystyrene, etc.) must be kept out of the reach of children or disabled persons since they represent potential sources of danger.

Location

10. This appliance is NOT suitable to be used or stored near heat sources (open flame, ovens, heaters, stoves, etc.) and/or in an explosive environment (in the presence of flammable substances such as gas, vapour, mist or dust, in atmospheric conditions when, after ignition, the combustion is spread in the air). Items containing these substances should never be placed in the appliance, and never be used to clean the appliance in order to avert the risk of fire or explosion.
11. The appliance should NOT be placed on a surface, or in the vicinity of objects which can be damaged by heat such as carpets or plastics. DO NOT locate multiple portable socket outlets or power supplies at the bottom or rear of the appliance. During operation, as heat is transferred away from the appliance, the surface that the appliance is placed upon as well the surface immediately above or adjacent to it may become very hot. There should be at least 10 cm of free space from the back, left & right sides and at least 20 cm from the top to allow adequate air circulation to cool the compressor. Never put things on top of the appliance, for this will prevent air flow and reduce the effect of hot air heating. If the appliance is operated on wooden furniture, use a protective pad to prevent damage to delicate finishes.
12. Avoid placing the power cable on abrasive or sharp surfaces or in positions where it can be damaged easily. The cable must NOT be placed under carpets, or covered with throw rugs, runners or similar. Arrange the cable away from the high traffic area, and where it will NOT be tripped over.
