Operating Instructions

Once installed, the crumb tray operates passively by collecting crumbs and food particles that fall during cooking. No specific operational steps are required for the tray itself beyond its proper installation.

Removal: Ensure the oven is unplugged and cool. Carefully slide the crumb tray out from the front of the oven.
Disposal of Debris: Discard any accumulated crumbs or food particles into a waste bin.
Washing: Wash the crumb tray with warm, soapy water. A non-abrasive sponge or cloth can be used to remove stubborn residue. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers that could damage the tray's surface.
