Assembly Instructions

  1. Ensure the unit is on a flat, sturdy surface with proper clearance.
  2. Line up the unit handle and panel, ensuring the handle flips upwards.
  3. Insert the grill hook into the oval opening on the panel (hook facing upwards).
  4. Place the washer on the bolt and insert it into the top round hole through the handle and panel.
  5. Secure tightly with the included screw from behind the panel.

Note: Improper assembly of the handle can cause the grill to fall, leading to injury or burns.

Before Using Your Oven

Before the first use, perform a burn-off process:

  1. Wash the rack with soapy water (do not use spray or abrasive agents).
  2. Wipe interior walls with a damp cloth. Do not touch heating elements or soak the inside with water.
  3. Close the door and set the timer for 5 minutes.
  4. After the timer resets, open the door to remove smoky residue. A light amount of smoke is normal during this process.

Usage Instructions

The oven requires no preheating.

  1. Plug in the unit.
  2. Set the desired temperature using the thermostatic controls (150°F - 570°F).
  3. Use oven mitts or protective gear when removing food to avoid contact with hot panels.
  4. Unplug the oven when not in use.

Cleaning Instructions

Clean the unit daily to maintain performance and longevity. Do not immerse the unit in water.

  1. Allow the unit to cool completely.
  2. Disconnect the power cord.
  3. Slide out the crumb tray and remove food debris.
  4. Wipe the crumb tray with a damp cloth and return it to position.
  5. Wipe the outside of the unit with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.

Warning: Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads. Ensure all soap residue is rinsed away, as chemical residue can corrode the surface.
