For optimum performance and safe operation, always keep the unit clean and
free of grease and buildup of food particles.
• Unplug the toaster oven from the wall outlet and allow it to cool before
cleaning.
• Remove the wire rack. Use a damp cloth or sponge with a mild liquid soap
solution to wipe the interior walls of the toaster oven. Never use harsh abra-
sives, corrosive products or spray detergents.
• Do not clean the interior with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off and
touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electrical shock.
• Do not soak the inside of the oven or wash it under running water, as this will
cause serious damage to the appliance.
• Do not use sharp or hard kitchen utensils on the oven since this could damage
the surface of the appliance.
• To clean the glass door, use a glass cleaner or a damp cloth. Wipe dry with a
clean cloth.
• Wipe the exterior finish with a damp cloth and mild soap solution. For stub-
born stains, a non-abrasive liquid cleaner or glass cleaner may be used. Do
not use metal scouring pads, as they might mar the finish. Always remove
cleaning agents by polishing with a clean dry cloth.
• The wire rack, oven pan and broiling rack should be removed and washed
with running water and detergent, or in a dishwasher after each use.
• Slide the crumb tray out from the bottom of the oven. Wash by hand under
running water with a mild soap detergent. For tough stains, soak the crumb
tray with hot soapy water and scrub with a soft sponge. Rinse thoroughly and
wipe dry before replacing in the oven.
• If the oven has not been used for a long time, be sure to remove dust and
moisture before operating.
• If servicing is required, contact an authorized service representative for
instructions.
