Cuisinart Classic Toaster Oven Broiler TOB-50BCC - Manuel (Page 6)

BEFORE THE FIRST USE
Place your oven on a flat surface.
Before using your oven, move it two to four inches (5 - 10 cm) away from
the wall or from any objects on the countertop. Do not use on heat-sensitive
surface. DO NOT STORE OBJECTS ON THE TOP OF THE OVEN. IF YOU
DO, REMOVE ALL OBJECTS BEFORE YOU TURN ON YOUR OVEN. THE
EXTERIOR WALLS GET VERY HOT WHEN IN USE. KEEP OUT OF
REACH OF CHILDREN.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
Baking: Baking function can be used as you would normally use your
kitchen oven for roasting meats including chicken, or baking cakes,
cookies and more.
Broiling: Broiling function can be used for beef, chicken, pork, fish and more.
It also can be used to top brown casseroles and gratins. Caution: Aluminum
foil is not recommended for covering the drip tray. Foil is extremely dangerous
when broiling fatty foods. Grease will accumulate and may catch fire. The use
of foil is not recommended, but if foil is used to cover broiling pan, be sure foil
is tucked neatly around the pan and does not touch the walls or heating rods.
Never cover crumb tray.
Toasting: Always have the rack in rack position “B”, as indicated in the
diagram on page 5, for even toasting. Always centre your item/items in the
middle of the rack.
WARNING: Placing the rack in the bottom position or in the top position
with the rack upwards while toasting may result in a fire. Refer to rack
position diagram for proper use.
Turning off the toaster oven broiler: Turn the function dial to off. The
indicator will turn off.
USE AND CARE
Unwind the power cord. Check that the crumb tray is in place and that there
is nothing in the oven. Plug power cord into the wall outlet.
Broil
Note: When broiling, add approximately
1 ⁄
4
cup (50 ml) water to the bottom of
the broiling pan to reduce sizzling and splattering. Place the drip tray in the
broiling pan. Note: There are two positions for the drip tray so that a variety of
thicknesses of foods can be broiled. Also, the oven rack can be turned up or
down depending on the thickness of the food being broiled. In most cases the
oven rack should be in the higher position (position “C” – see rack position
diagram on page 5).
To broil, set temperature and function dials to broil. Preheat oven for five
minutes with door closed. After the five-minute preheat period, place the
broiling pan in the oven. Always leave door ajar when broiling.
Note: Never use glass oven dishes to broil.
To stop broil operation, turn function dial to off position.
Bake
To bake, turn the temperature dial to the desired temperature and turn
function dial to bake position. Make sure oven rack is in position “A” – see
rack position diagram on page 5. The oven indicator light will turn on.
Preheat oven for five to ten minutes (time will vary depending upon desired
temperature); then begin to bake.
Toast
To toast, make sure the oven rack is in rack position “B”, as indicated in
the diagram on page 5. If toasting two items, centre them in the middle of
the rack. Four items should be evenly spaced – two in front, two in back.
Six items should be evenly spaced – three in front, three in back. Close the
glass door.
