The convection fan is programmed to operate on Bake, Slow Cook
and Dehydrate.

Be sure that the Temperature Control is set to “0” and the Time Control is
set to “Off” before plugging the cord into the outlet for use and when
unplugging the oven after use.
•
Set the Temperature Control and the Function Control before setting the
Time Control.
•
The oven will only operate if the Time Control is turned to a time setting or
if it is in the “Stay On” position.
•
For even cooking, always place foods in the oven with at least one inch
of space on all sides to allow proper air circulation.
Cooking Containers
•
The drip/baking pan included with the oven is suitable for cookies, rolls,
biscuits, nachos, pork chops, etc.
•
Most standard baking pans and casserole dishes are suitable for the
convection oven. The width should not exceed 12.5 inches and the
depth should not exceed 12 inches.
•
Choose bakeware made of metal, oven-proof glass or ceramic. Check
for Wolfgang Puck bakeware on HSN.com.

Many convenience foods are packaged in nonmetallic containers
suitable for use in microwave ovens as well as regular ovens. Check
package directions carefully to determine if the container is suitable for
use in a regular oven.

Using Your Oven (cont.)
Before Your First Use
Read all instructions in this manual carefully. The information included in this book
will help you to use your Bistro Convection Oven with Rotisserie to its fullest.
Place your oven on a level surface such as a countertop or table. Be sure the
sides, back and top of the oven are at least four inches away from any walls,
cabinets or objects on the counter or table.
Remove all stickers from the oven except the rating label located on the back.
Remove Oven Rack, Drip/Baking Pan, Broiling/Roasting Rack, Rotisserie Spit and
Forks. Wash them in hot, sudsy water or in the dishwasher and dry thoroughly
before placing in the oven.
When you are ready to use the oven, be sure that the Temperature and Time
Controls are in the “Off” position. Plug the cord into a 120-volt AC outlet.
We recommend a “trial run” at a high temperature to familiarize yourself with
your oven and to eliminate any protective substance or oil that may have been
used for packing and shipping. Set the Temperature Control to “Max”, the
Function Control to “Broil”, and the Time Control to “20” minutes. After the first 10
minutes, switch the Function Control to “Bake” to activate the lower heating
elements. A small amount of smoke and odor may be detected. This is normal.
To avoid scratching, marring, discoloration or fire hazard, do not store anything
on top of the oven, especially during operation.
This appliance requires 1,700 watts and should be the only appliance operating
on the circuit.
Important Notice Regarding Use
of Pizza Stone
1 The enclosed Pizza Stone must only be used for making pizza
or bread.
2 Do not use your pizza stone in temperatures higher then 425ºF.
3 Your stone can be cleaned by placing it on the bottom rack
of your toaster oven and setting the temperature to 425ºF for
4 hours. After allowing the stone to cool you can scour it with
baking soda.
