IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be  followed, including the following:

• Read all instructions before using.
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
• To protect against electrical shock do not immerse the cord, plugs, or appliance in water or other liquid.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
• Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Contact consumer support for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment. Or, call the appropriate toll-free number listed on the cover.
• Accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
• To disconnect, turn the timer control Off then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
• Do not use the appliance for other than intended use.
• Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electric shock.
• Oversized foods or metal utensils must not be inserted in a toaster oven, as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
• When in operation, a fire may occur if the toaster oven is covered or touching flammable material including curtains, draperies, walls, and the like. Do not store any item on top of the unit when in operation.
• Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of other than metal or glass.
• Do not store any material, other than the manufacturer’s recommended accessories, in this oven when not in use.
• Do not place any of the following materials in the oven: paper, cardboard, plastic, and the like.
• Do not cover the crumb tray or any part of this oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• The appliance is not intended to be operated using an external timer or a separate remote-control system.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This product is for household use only.

GROUNDED PLUG

As a safety feature, this product is equipped with a grounded plug, which will only fit into a three-prong outlet. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. Improper connection of the grounding conductor may result in the risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW

Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.

ELECTRICAL CORD

1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. If a long detachable power supply cord or extension cord is used,
   1. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,
   2. The appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and
   3. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified personnel; in Latin America, by an authorized service center.
