PREPARING YOUR TOASTER OVEN AND BROILER FOR USE
Your Rival
®
Toaster Oven is equipped with all of the options of a full-size
oven in a countertop appliance – it toasts, bakes and broils.
NOTE: Initial start up operation may result in minimal smell and smoke
(about 15 min). This is normal. It is due to the protective substances on
the heating elements, which protect them from salt effects during
shipment from the factory.

• Leave 6 – 8 inches of open surface all around the exterior of the
Toaster Oven.
• Place the Toaster Oven on a dry, level heat resistant surface.
•The Toaster Oven should be operated on a separate electrical circuit
from other appliances. If the circuit is overloaded, this appliance may
not operate correctly.
• Do not use airtight containers inside the oven. Containers must have
room to allow for expansion of liquids.
• Do not touch hot surfaces such as the GLASS DOOR, top and sides.
•Watch the toasting process carefully when toasting items such as
stale toast, croutons and crackers. Select a light setting for these
types of foods.
• Do not use any sharp utensils to clean the GLASS DOOR as this may
cause damage to the glass or breakage. Clean only with a soapy
damp rag.
