4. Setup and First Use

1. Unpack: Carefully remove the oven and all accessories from the packaging.
2. Clean: Wash the wire racks, bake tray, rotisserie set, and crumb tray in warm, soapy water. Wipe the interior and exterior of the oven with a damp cloth. Dry all parts thoroughly.
3. Placement: Place the oven on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface, ensuring adequate ventilation around the unit. Do not place it directly against a wall or under cabinets.
4. First Use (Burn-Off): Before cooking food, operate the oven empty for approximately 15 minutes at 450°F (232°C) on the 'Bake' function. This helps to burn off any manufacturing oils and odors. A slight odor or smoke is normal during this process. Ensure the area is well-ventilated.
5. Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a standard 120V AC electrical outlet.
