CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
This appliance is intended for household use only.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug
has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical
outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce
the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into
the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,
contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do
not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by
modifying the plug in any way.
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 toaster oven. 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 toll-free customer service number.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
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 for the first time. Plug the toaster oven into an
outlet. Turn the Temperature Knob to 450°F. Heat at this
temperature for 10 minutes. The odor should not be present
after this initial preheating. Wash baking pan, broil rack, and
oven rack before using.

• To toast English muffins, place oven rack in the low
position and place English muffins with the split side
facing down. Set Toast Color Knob to the dark setting.
To Toast
Do not leave appliance unattended when in operation.
• To toast regular toaster pastries, frozen pastry, or
waffles, place oven rack in the medium position. Select a
light color and toast directly on the oven rack. If pastry has
a glaze of frosting, use baking pan.
• When toasting, condensation may form on the oven door.
A toaster oven is enclosed so moisture is slow to escape.
• The number of slices of bread and the bread freshness
will affect toast color. For example, toasting 4 slices of
bread will require a darker toast color setting than 2 slices
of bread. Adjust the Toast Color Knob based on desired
color and number of slices.
Do not leave the toaster oven unattended during
toasting or top-browning.
1. Place the oven rack in middle position for bread, pastry, or
frozen waffles. Place oven rack in low position for bagels
or English muffins (see Toasting Tips).
2. Set Temperature Knob to Toast.
3. Set Function Knob to Toast.
4. Turn Toast Color Knob to at least 5 and
then back to the desired toast color setting
(for accurate times under 5 minutes).
5. A bell will sound when cycle is completed.
When finished, turn OFF. Unplug from
outlet.
To Keep Warm
1. Set Temperature Knob to Keep Warm.

Toasting Tips
3. Set Timer between 5 and 15 minutes or to Stay On.
4. When finished, turn OFF. Unplug from outlet.
• When toasting only two
slices of bread, place bread
towards front of oven to get
similar toasting on top and
bottom.
Warming and Reheating Tips:
• Do not totally enclose foods in aluminum foil. Foil can
insulate foods and slow down heating.
• To reheat rolls or biscuits, place on baking pan and heat
at 300ºF for 10 minutes.
• Reheat leftover roasts or casseroles at 350ºF for 20 to 30
minutes or until heated through.
• To toast bagels, place oven
rack in the low position and
place bagels cut side facing down. This will toast the cut
side more than the outside of the bagel. Set the Toast Color
Knob to desired setting.
