To disconnect, turn any control to OFF, then remove plug from wall outlet.
□ Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
Use extreme caution when removing tray or disposing of hot grease.
- Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electric shock.
□ Oversized foods or metal utensils must not be inserted in this appliance, as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
A fire may occur if the toaster oven is covered or touching flammable material including curtains, draperies, walls and the like, when in operation. Do not store any item on top of unit when in operation.
Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of other than metal or glass.

• To eliminate any protective substance or oil that may have been used for packing and shipping, set the unit to TOAST and set the timer for it to toast for about 15 minutes. A small amount of smoke and odor may be detected. This is normal.
• To avoid scratching, marring, or discoloration, do not store anything on top of the toaster oven broiler during operation.

Caution: Appliance surfaces are hot during and after use.

Caution: Always wear protective, insulated oven mitts on hands when touching hot oven or hot dishes and food or when inserting or removing wire rack, baking dish and food. COOKING CONTAINERS

• The bake pan included with the toaster oven broiler is suitable for items such as cookies, rolls, biscuits, nachos and pork chops.
• Choose bake ware made of metal, or glass/ceramic without lids.
• Dark or dull pans absorb heat faster; foods will bake more rapidly and crust will brown more easily than in shiny bake pans.

• Check package directions and/or with the ovenware manufacturer to determine if the container is suitable for use in a toaster oven broiler.

• Do not use oven roasting bags in this toaster oven broiler, as they may come in contact with the heating elements.

Caution: Allow at least 1" air space between the top of the container and the upper heating elements. Never use glass lids on glass or metal bake ware. If a lid is necessary, cover tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil.

• When toasting more than one slice of bread, use slices of similar size, thickness and freshness.

• One slice of bread requires a lighter setting than several slices of bread.

• Stale bread, thin bread or sweet bread products, such as tea cakes and fruit loafs, brown much more quickly than ordinary bread so they should be toasted for less time.
