READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE AND SAVE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. Do not touch hot surfaces. Always use oven mitts when handling hot materials and
allow metal parts to cool before cleaning. Allow the unit to cool thoroughly before
putting in or taking off parts. Always use the oven handles when moving the unit.
2. When the unit is not in use and before cleaning, unplug the toaster oven from the wall
outlet. NOTE: Make sure the oven is turned off before unplugging.
3. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not immerse the appliance in water or any
other liquids.
4. Close supervision is always necessary when this or any appliance is used near children.
5. Do not operate this appliance with a frayed or damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions or is dropped or has been damaged in any manner. Return
appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or
adjustment.
6. Do not use outdoors or for commercial purposes.
7. Do not use this appliance for other than its intended use.

9. Do not place the appliance near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
10. Extreme caution should be used when using containers constructed of material
other than metal or glass.

including curtains, draperies, walls, etc., when in operation. Do not store any
items on top of the appliance when in operation.

this unit when not in use.

21. Some countertop and table surfaces, such as Corian®, wood and/or laminates, are not
designed to withstand prolonged heat generated by certain appliances. It is
recommended by countertop manufacturers that a hot pad or trivet be placed under
your appliance to prevent possible damage to the surface.
