IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS When using electric appliances basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: 1) Read all instructions. 2) Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles, dials and hot pads. 3) To protect against electrical shock, do not place oven in or under water. See instructions for cleaning. 4) Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

1) Check that the appliance has not suffered any damage due to transportation. 2) Place the appliance on a flat, stable surface out of the reach of children (the glass door becomes very hot while the oven is in operation). 3) Before using this appliance, move it two to four inches away from the wall or any object on the coun- ter top.
CONVECTION AND TRADITIONAL COOKING GENERAL GUIDELINES With convection cooking, a fan gently circulates the heated air within the oven, providing a more even temperature around the food. This system, used in many large commercial ovens for years, produces more even browning and cooking of baked foods, meats and poultry. The forced air also displaces the layer of cold air surrounding the food, allowing faster cooking in many cases or a lowering of temperature.
TEMPERATURE AND TIME FOR TYPICAL FOODS (convection baking and roasting) The suggested temperature and times will vary depending on the temperature of the food placed in the oven, the quantity and personal preference. Times given for meat and poultry are for refrigerator tempe- rature.

TIPS FOR BROILING TYPICAL FOODS Set both the function and temperature dials to position BROIL. Turn the ON/OFF and toast programming dial (E)clockwise to position ON. When the function and the temperature dials are set to BROIL only the top element heats at full power.
With the wire shelf in position 2 you can toast up to 6 slices of bread, muffin halves, bagels, frozen waf- fles and pancakes. For toasting, place the bread and follow the instruction on the drawing below: 1 slice The toast programming dial can be set clockwise for light, medium or dark toast or any shade in between.
Slices of apples, pineapple, pears, peaches or bananas, placed directly on the dehydrator kit (if sup- plied), will dry in 8 to 20 hours in the gently circulating warm air. Time will depend on the moisture in the fruit. Herbs can also be dried. However, the limited quantity of vegetables that can be dried at one time may not be worth your time and attention.
