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 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.

slow cooking, baking, roasting, rotisserie
roasting and broiling for up to 120 minutes (2

When the time has elapsed or the knob is
manually turned to the “Off” position, a bell
will sound and oven will automatically shut off.
