Function Description:
The Countertop Oven features multiple cooking functions, making it a multi-purpose appliance. The primary function is Air Frying, which allows for cooking with hot air, resulting in crispy food with less oil. This function is ideal for items like French fries, chicken wings, and other fried foods. The oven also includes a Toast function for bread, bagels, and waffles, with adjustable shade settings.

Additionally, there's a Broil function for browning the top of dishes or cooking items like steaks and fish.

The oven is equipped with a Timer/Toast Shade Setting Tip that allows users to set the timer for up to 20 minutes. For cooking times longer than 20 minutes, the timer must be manually turned past the 20-minute mark to engage the timer switch and then turned back to the desired time.
Important Technical Specifications:
The oven operates on a 120 Volt AC electrical outlet. It features top and bottom heating elements that cycle ON and OFF to maintain the desired temperature. The heating elements may not always glow, which is normal operation.
The appliance includes a Mesh Air Frying Tray for optimal air circulation during air frying, a Baking Pan for accommodating a wide variety of foods, and a Wire Rack for toasting, baking, and broiling. A Removable Crumb Tray is also included for easy cleaning. The oven has a Glass Door that allows users to monitor the cooking process without opening the door.
Usage Features:
- Temperature Setting: The oven features a dial to adjust the thermostat to the desired temperature, typically ranging from a warm setting to 450°F (230°C) for Toast/Bake.
- Function Setting: A dial allows users to select the desired cooking function, such as Air Fry, Toast, Bake, Broil, or Warm.
- Timer Setting: A dedicated dial sets the cooking time, with a maximum of 20 minutes for the timer. For longer cooking times, the timer must be engaged manually.
- Power Light: An indicator light illuminates when the oven is plugged in and the timer is set, signaling that the heating process has begun.
- Positioning Rack: The oven offers three rack positions (top, middle, bottom) to accommodate various food sizes and cooking requirements. The top position is recommended for air frying and broiling, the middle for baking, and the bottom for toast and pizza. The rack can be pulled out and tilted downward for easier food removal.
- Preheating: It is generally recommended to preheat the oven for 5-6 minutes before placing food inside, especially for baking and air frying, to ensure optimal cooking results.
- Food Placement: For air frying, food should be arranged evenly on the mesh air frying tray in a single layer to allow for proper air circulation. For baking, the baking pan or wire rack can be used depending on the dish.
- Safety Features: The appliance is designed with safety in mind. Users are advised not to immerse the body of the unit in water. The exterior surfaces, glass door, and metal parts can become very hot during operation, so caution is advised, and oven mitts should be used.
