SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
North American models with polarized plugs:
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade is wider than
the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical
shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature or modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits
loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
POWER CORD INSTRUCTIONS:
A short power-supply cord or detachable power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable
power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use. If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:
a. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at
least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
b. 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; and
c. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set or extension cord
should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
Do not pull, twist or otherwise abuse the power cord.
NOTICES
1. Some countertop and table surfaces are not designed to withstand the prolonged
heat generated by certain appliances. Do not set the heated unit on a finished wood
table. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet under your countertop oven to
prevent possible damage to the surface.
2. During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor may be
detected. This is normal with many heating appliances and will not recur after
a few uses.

Positioning Rack
• To accommodate a wide variety of foods the oven has two rack positions. The rack can
be inserted in the oven in the upper or lower rack guides. The rack will fit into either of
the rack guides inside of the Countertop Oven. (See Figure Below)
• Before removing the rack allow the unit to cool.
• To remove the rack, open the oven door and pull the rack towards the front of the
oven. The rack will slide on the rack guides on the inside of the oven.
PLEASE NOTE: The oven rack may tilt downward causing food to shift when the rack is
pulled out. Proceed with caution.
• Positioning of the oven rack will depend on the size of the food and desired browning.
Adjust rack downward to prevent top browning and upward to prevent bottom burning.
