Please Note: Initial start-up operation may result in minimal smell and
smoke (about 15 minutes). This is normal and harmless.
It is due to burning of the protective substance applied to
the heating elements in the factory.

Using Your Convection & Rotisserie Oven
Please familiarize yourself with the following oven functions and accessories prior to first
use:
Temperature Control - Choose the desired temperature from Keep Warm to 450° F
for baking or rotisserie.
Function Control - This oven is equipped with five positions for a variety of cooking
needs:
Keep Warm - To keep cooked food warm.
Broil - For broiling fish, steak, poultry, pork chops, etc.
Rotisserie - Can cook up to a 6-lb. roast or 3.5-lb chicken
Toast - Bread, muffins, frozen waffles, etc.
Bake - Cakes, pies, cookies, poultry, beef, pork, etc.
Time Control - When you turn the control to the left, (counter-clockwise), the oven
will stay "ON" until it is manually shut "OFF". To activate the timer segment of the
control, turn to the right (clockwise) to toast or use as a timer. This function also has
a bell that rings (you will hear a "ding") at the end of the programmed time.
Convection Fan - The convection fan can be used on all the functions. To start the
convection fan, press the convection on/off button to the “On” position.
Power "On" Light - Is illuminated whenever the oven is turned on.
Oven Rack - For toasting, baking and general cooking for casserole dishes and
standard pans.
Drip Pan/Crumb Tray - To use with rotisserie or toast function.
Broiler Pan & Broiler Rack - For use in broiling and roasting meat, poultry, fish and
various other foods. The broiler rack allows the fat drippings to drip into the drip pan
and away from the food. This will help prevent spattering that could result in smoke
and flare ups.
Tray/Rack Handle - Allows you to pick up the bake rack, drip pan and broiler rack
when they are hot.
Rotisserie Spit - Roasts a variety of meats and poultry that are very tender and
juicy inside, and browned to perfection outside.
Rotisserie Handle - Used for removing the rotisserie spit from the oven after your
roast is done.
Pizza Stone - Heats evenly, absorbs moisture and cooks without fats, making each
dish a success.
Before using your convection/rotisserie oven:
1. Wash all accessories in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher.
2. Thoroughly dry all accessories and re-assemble in oven. Plug power cord into
electrical outlet and you are ready to use your oven.

temperature (450°F) on the “Toast” function for approximately 15 minutes to eliminate
any packing residue that may remain after shipping. This will also remove all traces of

Please Note: Initial start-up operation may result in minimal smell and smoke (about 15
minutes). This is normal and harmless. It is due to burning of the protective substance
applied to the heating elements in the factory.

Convection Cooking
Convection cooking combines hot air movement by means of a fan with the regular
features (rotisserie, broil, bake and toast). Convection cooking provides faster cooking in
many cases than regular radiant types toaster ovens. The fan gently sends air to every
area of the food, quickly browning, crisping and sealing in moisture and flavor. It
produces more even temperature all around the food by air movement so that food
cooks/bakes/broils evenly versus the normal ovens hot and cold spots. The convection
feature allows cooking/baking at lower temperatures, which saves energy and helps
keep the kitchen cooler. Convection air is superheated and it circulates around the food
so it cooks food significantly faster than conventional ovens.
