7. When food is done, turn the temperature control to OFF and unplug the

cord from the outlet.

8. Carefully remove the food using pot holders or oven mitts. Allow the

portable oven to cool before cleaning. Caution: The portable oven body,
pan, cover and rack will be hot. Always lift the cover away from you to
avoid steam.

Using the Oven Racks

Two racks are included for two-level cooking (such as meat on the bottom
rack with vegetables on the top) and to elevate baked goods. Use the oven
rack with handles alone inside the oven pan for fat-free cooking. (Prepare
soups and stews without the oven rack.)

For two-level cooking, place food on the oven rack
with handles, then fit the flat rack on the handles.
(See illustration for assembly.) Place the additional
food on the flat rack. Two-level cooking is not
recommended for baked goods.

If space allows, baked goods such as pies, cakes, cookies and casseroles
should be placed on the flat rack fitted on the oven rack with handles. This
will position them in the center of the oven and improve heat circulation.

Using the Steam and Serve Set

A four-piece Steam and Serve Set is included to convert your Portable Oven
into a professional steam and serve table. The set includes three 4-quart
stainless steel pans and a frame. You can keep up to three different foods
warm for serving.

Place the oven pan into portable oven. Pour 2 1/2 quarts of hot water into
the oven pan. Place frame securely on the rim of the oven pan, and insert
stainless steel pans into frame. Cover and preheat portable oven to 450°.
Uncover and add hot, cooked foods to pans up to 1 inch from rim. Reduce
heat to 400° and keep covered to warm foods for up to 2 hours. Adjust
temperature setting if necessary. If warming foods for longer than 2 hours,
check and add more hot water. For best results, stir foods occasionally.

NOTE: All containers should be in place when using the Steam and Serve
Set. When warming foods that may stick, coat pans with nonstick cooking
spray before filling.

Before Your First Use

Read all instructions. Carefully unpack the portable oven and remove all
packaging materials. 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
bottom. Wipe the exterior surfaces with a clean, damp cloth or sponge and
dry with another cloth. Remove the oven pan, steam and serve set, cover
and racks and wash in hot, sudsy water or in the dishwasher. Rinse and dry
thoroughly. Caution: Do not immerse the cord in water or any other liquid.

We recommend a “trial run” at a high temperature to eliminate any
protective substance or oil that may have been used for packing and
shipping.
Place the portable oven in a well ventilated area. Be sure that the
temperature control is in the OFF position. Plug the cord into a 120-volt
AC outlet. Set the temperature control to 450°. Operate the portable oven
empty for about 60 minutes until odor and smoke disappear. Turn the
temperature control to OFF, unplug the unit and allow to cool.

To avoid scratching, marring, discoloration or fire hazard, do not store
anything on top of the oven, especially during operation.

Using Your Portable Oven

into a 120 volt, AC outlet.This appliance requires 1440 watts and
should be the only appliance operating on the circuit.

oven pan.

3. Always preheat the portable oven prior to use. Set the temperature

control to the desired temperature and preheat for 10 minutes.

will be hot.

5. Using pot holders or oven mitts, place the food in a pan on an oven rack

and then place in the oven pan OR place the food directly in the oven
