PARTS & FEATURES

USING

BEFORE USING YOUR MINI TOASTER:
Remove all packaging materials.
Check that the Mini Toaster has no visible damage and that no parts are missing.
Before using the appliance for the first time or before using it after prolonged storage, wash and dry the appliance and any accompanying accessories. See "Cleaning & Maintenance" for instructions.
Your Dash Mini Toaster is always set to 400℉, so you don't have to worry about setting the temperature. To cook recipes that use a different temperature, simply adjust the time accordingly.

Your Mini Toaster Oven is hot, so do not touch the outside or inside while using.

Despite its small size, your Mini Toaster Oven is very powerful! Do not cook toast with it for longer than 4 minutes as indicated by the icon on the dial, as your toast may burn. Ensure your toast is at least 1/2 inch away from the heating elements within the Mini Toaster Oven: failure to do so may cause your toast to burn.

NOTE: Do not cook toast for longer than 4 minutes as indicated by the icon on the dial, as your toast may burn.

1. Place the appliance on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface. Plug the Mini Toaster into a wall socket.
   NOTE: There is no On/Off button on the Mini Toaster Oven. To turn the Mini Toaster on, simply plug in the Mini Toaster Oven and set the appropriate time. To turn off, set the timer dial to the "off" position or unplug.
   
2. Place your food on the Rack and/or Tray inside the Mini Toaster. Close the Glass Door. If using the Tray to toast, it is recommended to flip your food halfway through the cooking process. Ensure your toast is at least 1/2 inch away from the heating elements within the Mini Toaster Oven: failure to do so may cause your toast to burn. Flip at the halfway mark if using the Tray.
   
3. Turn the Timer to the appropriate setting. Once you have set the time, the Indicator Light will illuminate.
   NOTE: To set the Timer for less than 5 minutes, turn the Timer past 5 minutes, then back to your desired cooking time.
   
4. When the cooking time has elapsed, the Mini Toaster will ring. Use oven mitts to remove your food from the Mini Toaster as the appliance and your food will be hot. NOTE: Do not cook toast for longer than 4 minutes as indicated by the icon on the dial, as your toast may burn.
   

TOASTING CHART

PLEASE NOTE:
This Toasting Chart is a guideline. Actual cooking times may vary depending on your food. Your Dash Mini Toaster is always set to 400℉, so you don't have to worry about setting the temperature. To cook recipes that use a different temperature, simply adjust the time accordingly.

The and symbols around the Timer indicate light and dark toasting settings. The symbol represents the estimated time for light toast and the symbol represents the estimated time for dark toast.
These symbols are only guidelines and your actual cooking time may vary depending on your ingredients.

NOTE: Do not cook toast for longer than 4 minutes as indicated by the icon on the dial. Be careful not to set the dial over 4 minutes when making toast, as this may result in burnt toast and/or smoke.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

BEFORE CLEANING YOUR MINI TOASTER OVEN:
Ensure that you have unplugged the appliance before cleaning.
Allow the oven to cool completely before cleaning.
Thoroughly clean the Mini Toaster after each use.

WHEN CLEANING YOUR MINI TOASTER OVEN:
Use a damp cloth to wipe down the exterior of the appliance.
Dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents to clean the appliance.
Use warm water to clean the Rack, Tray, and Crumb Catch. Wipe down with a dry, clean cloth.

Open the Crumb Catch by pulling toward the front of the Mini Toaster until the latch has been released. Be sure to do this over a trash can as crumbs may fall out. The Crumb Catch will open but it will not remove entirely. Clean Crumb Catch weekly if you use it often. Using a damp, soapy cloth, wipe down the interior of the Mini Toaster. Thoroughly rinse the cloth and wipe again. Do not leave residual water in the oven.

Be careful not to touch or damage the quartz heating element while cleaning.

Always dry the Mini Toaster thoroughly.

It is highly recommended that you clean and dry the Rack and Tray by hand, after each use.
