Cooking Programmes - DeLonghi XU12 Directions For Use Manual

• Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a
safty feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug.
If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do
not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
• Plug the cord into a 120 volt AC outlet.
• The cord length of this product has been selected to reduce the possibility of tangling in
or tripping over a longer cord. If more cord length is needed, an extension cord may be
used. It should be rated no less than 15 amps., 120 volts, and have Underwriters
Laboratories/CSA listing.
• A six feet long, 15 amp. extension cord may be purchased from your local authorized
service facility. When using a longer cord, be sure not to let it drape over the working area
or dangle where someone could accidentally pull or trip over it.
• Handle the cord carefully for longer life; avoid jerking or straining the cord at the plug and
appliance connections.
NOTE: Initial start up operation may result in minimal smell and smoke (about 15 min.). This
is normal. It is due to the protective substance on heating elements which protects
them from salt effects during shipping from factory.

COOKING PROGRAMMES

The pilot lamp lights when the appliance is plugged into the mains. It does not mean that the oven
has reached the selected temperature.
1) HOW TO KEEP FOOD WARM
Place the food to be kept warm on the wire rack (in position 1 - please see page 3). Turn the upper
knob to "ON". Turn the lower knob to "KEEP WARM". This feature is designed to keep foods warm,
after they are cooked for short periods of time without overcooking. We do not recommend keeping
foods warm for prolonged periods or using this feature to reheat frozen or cold foods.Once the "keep
warm" function is no longer needed, turn the lower knob to " " and the upper knob to "OFF".
2) INSTRUCTIONS FOR BAKING
You can bake foods in your oven, just as in your regular oven. Casseroles or baking dishes may be
placed directly on the removable wire rack. Use the convenient bake/broil tray provided with your
oven for baking such items as cookies, biscuits, rolls and uncovered casserole dishes. Place the
bake/broil tray directly on the removable wire rack (position 2 - please see page 3).
1. Close the door.
2. Set the lower knob to the desired position/temperature.
3. Turn the upper knob to "ON".
4. Both the bottom and top elements are on. However the primary heat comes from the bottom
element.
5. When baking is finished turn the upper knob to "OFF" and the lower knob to
position " ".
NOTE: - We do not recommend the use of glass covers on casseroles. Glass cooking dishes
should never be closer than one inch from the heating element.
- During the bake and toast function,do not put the multi-purpose oven
tray (or any other accessory/container) directly on the lower heating
element.
HELPFUL BAKING HINTS
To obtain best performance from this toaster-oven-broiler:
• Do not overfill the oven. Whenever possible, place foods in center of oven.
• Avoid opening the door too frequently to prevent heat loss.
• Foil may be used to cover the baking dish or pan. Be sure the ends of foil are tucked closely
against the edge of the baking dish/pan.
