COOKING WITH YOUR CONVECTION TOASTER OVEN Baking Center food on the cooking rack and adjust rack height so food is centered in the oven. Be sure to account for foods that rise when cooked by placing them lower in the oven. Both the top and bottom heating elements are activated during this function. If the recipe requires a preheated oven, allow 3 to 5 minutes before adding food. Broiling Broiling typically cooks food from the top down and promotes browning only on top because only the top heating element is used. The closer food is place to the top of the oven, the more quickly it will brown. If food is browning too much or too quickly, lower the rack and reduce the temperature. The convection toaster oven does not have an open-door feature, so the door must be closed when broiling. NOTE: Food to be broiled should always be at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) away from the top heating element. For foods such as fish or chicken or when less browning is desired, place the rack in a lower position. Toasting Toast up to six slices of bread at once. Regardless of the number of slices, bread should always be positioned directly on the cooking rack and as close to the center of the rack as possible. Both top and bottom heating elements are activated in the 'toast' function. Adjust the cooking rack height as needed for the type and thickness of bread. Toast bagels and English muffins with cut side up. NOTE: it is normal for condensation to form on the glass oven door when toasting moist or fresh breads. Cooking chart Food Cooking temp.
