3. Setup

Unpacking and Placement:

1. Carefully remove all packaging materials, tape, and any promotional labels from the oven.
2. Place the oven on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface. Ensure there is at least 6 inches (15 cm) of clear space on all sides and above the oven for proper ventilation.

• Remove and empty the crumb tray after each use to prevent grease buildup and potential fire hazards. Wash the crumb tray with warm, soapy water.
