When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed:
1. READ THE GETTING STARTED GUIDE AND ALL INSTRUCTIONS, SAFEGUARDS, AND WARNINGS BEFORE OPERATING THE FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE SAFEGUARDS AND INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
2. Always operate the appliance on a stable, non-combustible, level surface.
3. CAUTION The appliance’s outer surfaces may become hot during use. Do not touch the metal surfaces. Use handles or dials. Wear oven mitts when handling hot components to avoid burns. Extreme caution must be used when moving the appliance. Let the appliance cool to room temperature before handling or moving.
4. CAUTION To protect against the risk of electrical shock, do not immerse any part of the appliance in water or other liquid. Do not rinse the appliance under a tap. Proper maintenance is recommended after each use. Let the appliance cool to room temperature before cleaning or storage. Refer to Care and Cleaning.
5. CAUTION This appliance is NOT to be used by children or by persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities. Close supervision is necessary when this appliance is used near children and these individuals. Children should not use or play with this appliance.
6. Unplug the appliance when not in use, before assembling or disassembling parts and before cleaning. To unplug the appliance, grasp the plug and pull from the outlet. Never pull from the power cord. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
7. Regularly inspect the appliance and power cord. Do not operate an appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner. For assistance, contact Customer Care at support@instantappliances.com or 1-800-828-7280.
8. Do not use any accessories or attachments not authorized by Instant Brands™ Inc. The use of attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may cause a risk of injury, fire or electric shock.
9. Avoid contact with moving parts. Failure to do so may result in injury.
10. For household countertop use only. Do not use outdoors. Not for commercial use.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
11. CAUTION Spilled food can cause serious burns. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from grabbing, entanglement and tripping.
• Keep the appliance and cord away from children.
• Never drape the power cord over edges of tables or counters. • Never use below-counter power outlets, and never use with an extension cord.
12. Do not use the appliance in electrical systems other than 120 V / 60 Hz. Do not use with power converters or adapters or floor level power outlet.
13. Do not place the appliance or power cord on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or a heated oven. Heat from an external source will damage the appliance.
14. Do not use the appliance for other than its intended use.
15. CAUTION Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of materials other than metal or glass in the appliance. Failure to do so may result in fire or burns.
16. CAUTION Do not place any combustible materials in the cooking chamber, such as paper, cardboard, plastic, Styrofoam or wood, or any other materials that are not oven safe and may catch fire or melt, and may result in burns.
17. Do not cover or block the air vents while the appliance is in operation. Doing so will prevent even cooking and may damage the appliance or cause it to overheat may result in fire or burns.
18. WARNING Never pour oil into the cooking pan. If needed, spray food lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Using oil could cause fire and result in personal injury.
19. CAUTION While cooking, the internal temperature of the appliance reaches several hundred degrees. To avoid personal injury, never place unprotected hands inside the appliance until it has cooled to room temperature. Exercise caution and avoid the hot steam and air when opening the oven door.

Do not operate the appliance on or near combustible materials such as tablecloths and curtains. Do not place anything on top of the appliance when in operation. A fire may occur if the oven is covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, drapes, walls and the like.
23. CAUTION When in operation, hot air is released through the air vents. Keep your hands and face at a safe distance from the air vents and take extreme caution when removing the accessories from the appliance. Failure to do so may lead to burns and/or injury.
24. CAUTION To avoid risk of fire or electrical shock, oversize foods, metal foil packages and metal utensils must not be inserted into the appliance. Do not overfill the cooking pans. Overfilling may cause food to contact the heating element, which may result in fire and/or personal injury.

26. To avoid risk of electrical shock, do not attempt to dislodge food while the appliance is plugged into an electrical outlet as this may lead to electric shock, burns and/or injury.
27. WARNING To avoid risk of fire, NEVER leave the appliance unattended during use. Never connect this appliance to an external timer switch or separate remote-control system as this may lead to burns and/or injury.
28. Should the appliance emit black smoke press Cancel and unplug immediately. Wait for smoking to stop and unit to cool before removing accessories.

Cooking Tips
The Omni Plus toaster oven cooks all your favorite fresh and frozen oven-baked and air fried snacks—fast!
Use the Smart Programs as a starting point and experiment with cooking times and temperatures to get the results you prefer.
• Rotisserie-cooked foods and rotisserie accessories and foods must be placed in the oven before touching Start.
• With the exception of rotisserie-cooked foods, most foods will benefit greatly from a preheated oven.
• When cooking coated food items, use an egg wash and breadcrumb batter instead of liquid-based batters to ensure that the batter will stick to the food.
• For crispy, golden fries, soak fresh potato sticks in ice water for 15 minutes, pat dry and spray lightly with cooking oil before inserting them into the oven.
• When baking a cake, pie, quiche, or any food with filling or batter, use an oven-safe baking dish and cover the food to prevent the top from overcooking.
• Air frying can cause oil and fat to drip from foods. If white smoke appears, carefully remove and empty the cooking pan.
• To ensure seasoning adheres to food items, spray them with cooking oil before adding seasoning. • Use any oven-safe cookware in your Omni Plus toaster oven.
CAUTION Do not spray cooking oil into the cooking chamber.
