Foil can insulate foods and slow down heating. • To reheat rolls or biscuits, place on baking pan and heat at 300ºF for 10 minutes. • Reheat leftover roasts or casseroles at 350ºF for 20 to 30 minutes or until heated through. To Bake and Rapid Convection Cook (select models only) 1. Place oven rack in middle or low position depending on food to be cooked. 2. Set Temperature Knob to desired temperature. 3. Set Function Knob to Rapid Cook. 4. Set Timer between 5 and 15 minutes or to Stay On. Preheat 5 minutes before beginning to bake. 5. When finished, turn OFF. Unplug from outlet. Tips • The convection method cooks up to one-third faster than traditional baking. • When first using, check to determine if time or temperature should be adjusted. • To reduce the risk of fire, do not use oven cooking bags in the toaster oven. • "Fan Only" mode operates the convection fan (on selected models) which circulates air in the oven cavity. 8 To Broil 1. Place oven rack in high or middle position. Place food on broil rack in the bake pan and place in oven. Do not preheat oven. 2. Set Temperature Knob to Broil. 3. Set Function Knob to Broil. 4. Set Timer between 5 and 15 minutes or to Stay On. 5. Halfway through cooking time, or when food has browned, turn food over to brown and cook other side. 6. When finished, turn OFF. Unplug from outlet. Broiling Tips • For best results, do not preheat oven when broiling. • Use oven rack in high position for faster broiling times. Use low position for foods needing longer broiling times, like chicken. • Always allow at least one inch between the food and the heating element.
