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

2. ON/OFF/Toast Shade Selector/Timer  
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to

Oven Rack Positions  
Toasting Tips  
The toaster oven comes with a  
dual-position oven rack. Flip the  
rack over to change the position.  
THIS OVEN RETAINS HEAT VERY WELL. WHEN MAKING  
MORE THAN ONE BATCH OF TOAST, THE TOAST SHADE  
SELECTOR SHOULD BE SET TO A LIGHTER COLOR ON  
THE SECOND BATCH TO GET THE SAME SHADE OF  
TOAST AS THE FIRST.  
High Position  
Low Position  
• If the bottom surface of the toast is too light, place the  
bread near the back or front of the oven. This toasts top and  
bottom more evenly than if placed in the center of the oven.  
To Toast  
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.  
To toast English muffins, place oven rack in the low  
position and place English muffins with the split side facing  
down. Set Toast Shade Selector to the dark setting.  
Do not leave appliance unattended when in operation.  
IMPORTANT! The Function/Temperature  
Knob must be in the TOAST position or unit  
will not toast properly.  
1. Place oven rack in the high position.  
To toast regular toaster pastry, frozen pastry, or waffles,  
place oven rack in the high position. Select a light color and  
toast directly on the oven rack. If pastry has a glaze of  
frosting, use baking pan.

To Broil  
Toasting Tips  
(continued)  
Do not leave appliance unattended when in operation.  
Wash the baking pan and broil rack before using.  
• When toasting, condensation may form on the oven door.  
A toaster oven is enclosed so the moisture is slow to escape.  
After toasting, wipe door to dry and make clean-up easier.  
1. Place broil rack inside baking pan.  
• When the bell sounds at the end of the cycle, remove  
toast immediately or the heat remaining in the toaster  
oven will continue to toast and dry out your toast.  
• The number of slices of bread, the bread freshness, and  
the starting temperature of the oven will affect toast color.  
If the oven is already hot, select a lighter shade of toast  
than normal. Adjust the Toast Shade Selector to achieve the  
desired color.  
2. Place oven rack in high position. Place  
baking pan on the oven rack.  
3. Set the Function Selector Knob to Broil.

turn food over to brown and cook other side.  
6. When finished turn OFF; unplug from outlet.  
To Bake  
NOTES:  
Do not leave appliance unattended when in operation.

depending on food to be cooked.
