IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

Read all instructions.
☐ Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
☐ To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug or any non-removable parts of this oven 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 to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
☐ Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment. Or, call the appropriate toll-free number listed on the cover of this manual.
☐ 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 electrical burner, or in a heated oven.
☐ Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquid.
☐ To disconnect, turn any control to OFF (0), then remove plug from wall outlet.
☐ Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
☐ Oversize 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.
☐ Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts resulting in a risk of electric shock.
☐ Extreme caution should be used when using containers constructed of other than metal or glass.

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.

ELECTRICAL CORD

a) A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
b) Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
c) If an extension cord is used,

1) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and
2) The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

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.

Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified personnel; in Latin America, by an authorized service center.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Unit is not heating or stops heating.	Electrical outlet is not working or oven is unplugged.	Check to make sure outlet is working. Both the temperature control and the timer must be set in order for the oven to function.
Second toasting is too dark. Setting on toast is too dark. If doing repeated toasting in the oven, select a shade slightly lighter than the previous setting.
Moisture forms on the inside of the glass door during toasting.	The amount of moisture differs in different products, whether bread, bagels or frozen pastries.	The moisture that forms on the oven door is quite common and will usually disappear during the toasting cycle. Since the oven is closed the moisture cannot evaporate as it would in a traditional toaster.
Food is overcooked or undercooked.	Temperature and cook time may need to be adjusted.	As your a toaster oven is much smaller than a regular oven, it may heat up faster and cook faster. Try lowering the temperature 25 °F from the suggested temperature in a recipe or on a label.
There is burnt food odor or smoking when oven is being used.	There are remnants of food in crumb tray or on the walls of the oven.	Refer to the directions in the CARE AND CLEANING section of this Use & Care booklet. Make sure all parts of the oven, bake pan and rack are clean.
Heating elements do not seem to be on.	The heating elements cycle on and off during baking.	Check the oven to make certain the function desired is being used. On broil, only the top element is on.
