Important safeguards

• Remove and safely discard any packing materials and promotional labels before using the oven for the first time.
• To eliminate a choking hazard for young children, remove and safely discard the protective cover fitted to the power plug of this appliance.
• Do not place the oven near the edge of a bench or table during operation. Ensure the surface is level, clean, and free of water, flour, etc.
• Always operate the oven on a stable, heat-resistant surface. Do not use on a cloth-covered surface, near curtains, or other flammable materials.
• A fire may occur if the oven is covered or touches flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls, and the like, when in operation.
• Do not place the oven on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or where it could touch another heated oven.
• Do not let the power cord hang over the edge of a table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
• To protect against electric shock, do not immerse the oven, power cord, or power plug in water or any other liquid.
• When operating the oven, keep a minimum distance of 4” (10cm) of space on both sides of the appliance. This will allow for adequate air circulation and help prevent the possibility of wall discoloration due to radiated heat.
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Appliance surfaces, including the door and outer surface of the oven, are hot during and after operation. To prevent burns or personal injury, always use protective hot pads or insulated oven mitts, or use handles and knobs where available, when inserting, removing or handling items from the oven. Alternatively, allow the oven to cool down before handling.
• Extreme caution must be used when removing pans, dishes, and accessories such as the included broil rack and baking pan that contain hot oil or other hot liquids.
• The top of the oven is very hot during and after operation. Do not store any item on top of the oven when in operation. The only exceptions are described on Page 43 – one layer of ceramic plates for warming, and any accessory provided by Breville for use in the ribbed section on top of the oven. If the ribbed section is used as a warming tray during operation, protective hot pads or insulated oven mittens should be used when removing heated items. Alternatively, allow the oven to cool down before handling.
• Do not place cardboard, plastic, paper, or other flammable materials in the oven.

A note on cooking times

The Breville Smart Oven™ features Element IQ™ – a unique cooking technology that adjusts the power of the cooking elements for optimum results.
Broil
High temperature top heat: melts and browns.

Toast
Searing top and bottom heat: seals and crisps.

Bake
Even convection heating cooks right through.

It is normal to notice the following occur during the cooking cycle:

• It is normal that during the BROIL function, the bottom set of elements turns off while the top set is heating at full power.
• Normally, the ends of each heating element will glow more brightly than the
  middle of the element.
• It is normal that the elements are heating even if they are not lighting up. This cooking technology allows foods to cook more evenly and quickly, significantly reducing cooking times. The oven’s preset cooking temperatures and times, as well
  as the cooking temperature and time directions on pre-packaged foods, may need to be changed depending on the recipe, the amount of food, and your taste. We recommend experimenting with the temperature and time settings to produce the desired results. The cooking temperature and time can be adjusted before or during the cooking cycle:
• a) The cooking temperature is displayed as the top figure on the LCD screen.
• Turn the TEMPERATURE dial to the left to reduce the temperature, or to the right
  to increase the temperature.
• The cooking temperature can be adjusted in 10°F increments, from 120°F to a
  maximum of 450°F (or in the Celsius mode, 5°C increments, from 50°C to a maximum of 230°C).         
• b) The cooking time is displayed as the bottom figure on the LCD screen.
• Turn the TIME dial to the left to reduce the cooking time, or to the right to increase the cooking time.
• The cooking time can be adjusted in one-minute increments up to 1 hour, and in
  5-minute increments between 1 and 2 hours.

CARE & CLEANING YOUR BREVILLE SMART OVEN™

Cleaning the outer body and door

1. Wipe the outer body with a soft, damp sponge. A non-abrasive liquid cleanser or
   mild spray solution may be used to avoid the build-up of stains. Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the oven surface, before cleaning.
2. To clean the glass door, use a glass cleaner or mild detergent and a soft, damp sponge or soft plastic scouring pad. Do not use an abrasive cleanser or metal scouring pad, as these will scratch the oven surface.
3. Let all surfaces dry thoroughly before inserting the power plug into a wall outlet
   and turning the oven ON.

Cleaning the interior

1. The walls on the inside of the oven feature a non-stick coating for easy cleaning. To clean any splattering that may occur while cooking, wipe the walls with a soft, damp sponge. A non-abrasive liquid cleanser or mild spray solution may be used to avoid the build-up of stains. Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the oven surface, before cleaning. Avoid touching the quartz heating elements.
2. Let all surfaces dry thoroughly before inserting the power plug into a wall outlet
   and turning the oven ON.

Cleaning the crumb tray

1. After each use, slide out the crumb tray and discard crumbs. Wipe the tray with a
   soft, damp sponge. A non-abrasive liquid cleanser may be used to avoid build-up
   of stains. Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the tray, before cleaning. Dry thoroughly.
2. To remove baked-on grease, soak the tray in warm soapy water, then wash with
   a soft sponge or soft plastic scouring pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
3. Always ensure to re-insert the crumb tray into the oven after cleaning and before inserting the power plug into a wall outlet and turning the oven ON.

Cleaning the wire rack, broil rack, baking pan, and pizza pan

1. Wash all accessories in warm, soapy water with a soft sponge or soft plastic
   scouring pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
