USING YOUR OSTER
®
TOASTER OVEN
Caution: Never place anything on top of your Toaster Oven as it can get very hot.
How to Bake/ Defrost
1. Place the wire rack in the desired position.
2. Select the required temperature. (Use the settings between "Warm" and 200°F (93ºC)
for defrosting. Vary temperature based on size and type of food.)
3. To switch the oven “on”, turn the timer dial to the desired time. For best results, allow the oven
to preheat for 4-5 minutes before using.
Note: If the oven door is opened beyond the first notch (approximately 1.4 inches),
the unit will shut off. If there is still time remaining on the timer, it will resume
baking/defrosting when the door is shut.
How to Broil/Grill
When broiling, only the top heating element is in use.
1. Position the removable rack in the top rack position.
2. Close the door to the first notch, leaving approximately 1.4 inch gap at the top. This will ensure
adequate air flow during broiling/grilling.
3. To switch the broil/grill on, turn the temperature dial fully clockwise to the broil position and then
set the timer dial to the required time. For best results, allow the oven to preheat 4-5 minutes
before using.
4. Place the broiling/grill tray inside the baking pan, arrange the food and position the baking pan
on the wire rack. Note door must be left ajar to allow proper air flow.
5. Be sure to turn food as it cooks.
How to Toast
No preheat period is required before toasting.
1. Place toast on low middle rack position and close the door.
2. Turn the toast control dial to the desired toast color.
3. Press the toast control lever fully down until it locks in position. At the end of the toasting cycle
the control lever will return to its original position and shut the unit off. (Toasting time will vary
depending on bread types and the number of slices.).
Note: 1. When toasting, DO NOT have the oven temperature control in the
broil mode.
2. If the oven door is opened when toasting, the unit will shut off.
Toasting will resume only if reset.
How to Top Brown
No preheat period is required before top browning.
1. Place wire rack in its highest position to accommodate food.
2. Select desired browning level by using the toast control dial.
3. Press the toast control lever until it locks in position. At the end of the cycle, the control lever
will return to its original position and shut the unit off.
Note: Cooking times in your Toaster Oven will be shorter than in your larger stovetop
oven. This is because a Toaster Oven can maintain its temperature better
because it has a smaller space to heat. Be careful when following directions
on packaged foods, or in recipe books.
