Broiler Pan - For use in broiling and roasting meat, poultry, fish and  
various other foods. ups.  
Tray Handle - Allows you to pick up the wire rack, and broiler pan when  
they are hot.  
1. Read all of the instructions included in this manual.  
2. Make sure that the oven is unplugged and the Time Control is in the  
“OFF” position.  
3. Wash all the accessories in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher.  
4. Thoroughly dry all accessories and re-assemble in oven. Plug oven into  
outlet and you are ready to use your new Toaster Oven with Convection.  
5. After re-assembling your oven, we recommend that you run it at the  
highest temperature (450° F.) on the Toast Function for approximately 15  
minutes to eliminate any packing residue that may remain after shipping.  
This will also remove all traces of odor initially present.  
WARNING: TO AVOID RISK OF INJURY  
OR BURNS, DO NOT  
TOUCH HOT SURFACES  
WHEN OVEN IS IN USE.  
ALWAYS USE OVEN MITTS.  
Please Note: Initial start-up operation may result in minimal smell and  
smoke (about 15 minutes). This is normal and harmless.  
It is due to burning of the protective substance applied to  
the heating elements in the factory.  
Convection Cooking  
Convection cooking combines hot air movement by means of a fan with the  
regular features (rotisserie, broil, bake and toast). Convection cooking provides  
faster cooking in many cases than regular radiant types toaster ovens. The fan  
gently sends air to every area of the food, quickly browning, crisping and sealing  
in moisture and flavor. It produces more even temperature all around the food  
by air movement so that food cooks/bakes/broils evenly versus the normal  
ovens hot and cold spots. The convection feature allows cooking/baking at  
lower temperatures, which saves energy and helps keep the kitchen cooler.  
Convection air is superheated and it circulates around the food so it cooks food  
significantly faster than conventional ovens.  
Caution: Always use extreme care when  
removing broiler pan, wire rack  
or any hot container from a hot  
oven. Always use the tray  
handle, or an oven mitt when  
removing hot items from the  
oven.

Broiling with Convection  
Baking with Convection  
The top heating elements cycle on and off to maintain maximum  
temperature in the oven. For best results, the oven should be  
preheated for 20 minutes at 450° before adding the food to be  
broiled. In the convection oven, it is not necessary to turn the food  
because the fan circulates the hot air around the food. The food  
must be placed on the wire rack with the crumb tray beneath it (see  
illustration) to allow the circulation of air.  
Convection baking is very consistent and even. The oven heats quickly, so  
preheating is not necessary or desirable. The fan circulates the hot air around  
the food making baked goods rise quickly and evenly.  
Bake your favorite cookies, cakes, pies, brownies, etc. The bakeware that will  
fit in your oven are up to 9 inches in length. We do not recommend the use of  
oven roasting bags or glass containers in the oven. Never use plastic,  
cardboard, paper or anything similar in the oven.  
Note: Position the wire rack in the lowest Support Guide.  
Operation  
Set Temperature Control to 450°.  
Turn Function Control to Broil/Convection.  
Preheat the oven.  
Place the Wire Rack on the Crumb Tray.  
Place the food on the Wire Rack and slide into the  
Top Rack Support Guide or Middle Rack Support  
Guide depending on the thickness of the food that  
you are cooking.  
Operation  
Place the wire rack in the lowest or middle Rack Support Guide  
depending on the height of the pan or according to the recipe.  
Place pan with item(s) to be baked on the wire rack.  
Turn the Function Control to Bake/Convection.  
Turn the Time Control to position “Stay On”.  
When baking is complete, turn the Time Control to “OFF”.  
Food should be placed as close as possible to the  
Top Heating Element without touching it.  
Set temperature control to the appropriate temperature.  
Brush food with sauces or oil, as desired.  
Turn Time Control to position “Stay On”.  
It is advisable to leave the door slightly ajar.  
When broiling is complete, turn the Time Control to “OFF”.  
Positioning of the Wire Rack

Layer Cakes - Use bottom Support Guide only (bake one at a time).  
Pies - Use bottom Support Guide.  
Baking Cookies  
For baking cookies, we suggest adjusting baking temperature and using a  
cookie sheet placed on the wire rack. Also, using parchment paper on a  
cookie sheet might prove helpful when baking certain types of cookies.  
Broiling Guide  
Cooking results may vary, adjust these times to your individual  
requirements. Also, check often during broiling to avoid overcooking.
