- This appliance can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
- Take inventory of all contents to ensure you have all the parts needed to properly and safely operate your oven.
- NEVER leave the oven unattended while in use.

- Keep the appliance and its cord out of reach of children. Do not allow the appliance to be used by children. Close supervision is necessary when used near children.
- DO NOT use an extension cord. A short power-supply cord is used to reduce the risk of children grabbing the cord or becoming entangled and to reduce the risk of people tripping over a longer cord.
- DO NOT place the appliance on hot surfaces, near hot gas or electric burners, in a heated oven, or on a stovetop.
- DO NOT place any object directly onto the heating elements and DO NOT cover the crumb tray or any part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause the oven to overheat or cause a fire.

ACCESSORY STORAGE PLACEMENT
BEFORE FIRST USE
- Remove and discard any packaging material, promotional labels, and tape from the unit.
- Remove all accessories from the package and read this manual carefully. Please pay particular attention to operational instructions, warnings, and important safeguards to avoid any injury or property damage.
- Wash the air fry basket, sheet pan, wire rack, and removable crumb tray in warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry them thoroughly with a non-abrasive sponge. DO NOT place the sheet pan in the dishwasher.
- NEVER submerge the main unit in water or place it in the dishwasher.
We recommend placing the wire rack, sheet pan, and air fry basket inside the oven and running it on Air Fry at 450˚F for 20 minutes without adding food. Make sure the area is well-ventilated. This removes any packaging residue and odor traces that may be present. This is completely safe and not detrimental to the performance of the oven
NOTE: For longest use, we recommend hand-washing the accessories. The air fry basket and wire rack can be put in the dishwasher, but this may cause them to wear more quickly over time.
