Before using your oven, make sure it is two to four inches (5-10cm)
away from the wall or from any objects on the countertop. Do not use
on heat-sensitive surfaces. DO NOT STORE OBJECTS ON THE

Toast/Bagel: Always have the rack in Upper rack position, as
indicated in the diagram at left, for even toasting. Always center your
item/items in the middle of the rack.
Bake: Baking function can be used as you would normally use your
large kitchen oven for roasting meats including chicken, or baking
cakes, cookies and more.
Broil: Broiling function can be used for beef, chicken, pork, fish and
more. It also can be used to brown the tops of casseroles and
gratins.
