DASH DMTO100 (01) PDF Document

When using the DASH DMTO100, follow these safety guidelines:

Read all instructions and remove all packaging materials before use.

Never leave the appliance unattended when in use.

Do not use the toaster oven outdoors or for anything other than its intended household use.

Do not touch hot surfaces; use handles or knobs instead.

Ensure a fire does not occur by keeping the appliance away from flammable materials like curtains, draperies, or walls. Do not store items on top of the appliance during operation.

Oversized foods or metal utensils must not be inserted as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.

Do not place paper, cardboard, or plastic materials inside the oven.

Do not cover any part of the toaster with metal foil, as this will cause overheating.

Do not clean with metal scouring pads, as pieces can break off and touch electrical parts.

Do not spray water on the door while the appliance is in use or open the door during cooking, as heat will escape.

Always unplug the appliance when not in use and before cleaning or moving.

The DASH DMTO100 includes the following components:

Main Body: The exterior housing of the toaster oven.

Glass Door: Allows you to view food while it is cooking.

Handle: Used to safely open and close the glass door.

Rack: The internal wire shelf for holding food.

Tray: A removable pan that sits on the rack for cooking ingredients.

Timer: A dial used to set the cooking duration.

Indicator Light: Illuminates when the timer is set and the appliance is heating.

Crumb Catch: A door at the bottom designed to collect and dispose of food particles.

Non-slip Feet: Provide stability on flat surfaces.

Before initial use of the DASH DMTO100, follow these steps:

1. Remove all packaging materials.

2. Check that the appliance has no visible damage and that no parts are missing.

3. Wash and dry the appliance and any accompanying accessories thoroughly.

Note: During first use, it is common to see a small amount of smoke or experience a slight odor. This is normal and will dissipate.

To use your DASH DMTO100, follow these instructions:

1. Place the appliance on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface and plug it into a wall socket.

2. Place your food on the Rack and/or Tray inside the toaster and close the Glass Door.

3. Turn the Timer to the appropriate setting. Once set, the Indicator Light will illuminate. If setting the timer for less than 5 minutes, turn the dial past the 5-minute mark and then back to your desired time.

4. When the cooking time has elapsed, the appliance will ring. Use oven mitts to remove your food as both the oven and the food will be hot.

To turn the appliance off manually, set the timer dial to the “off” position or unplug the unit.

The DASH DMTO100 is always set to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Use the following table as a guideline for toasting levels:

Do not cook toast for longer than 4 minutes as indicated by the icon on the dial, as it may burn or produce smoke. Ensure your toast is at least 1/2 inch away from the heating elements.

No. The DASH DMTO100 does not include a convection function and is therefore not appropriate for baking poultry or meat. This appliance is intended for warming ingredients within a 15-minute timeframe.

To clean your DASH DMTO100, ensure it is unplugged and has cooled completely. Follow these maintenance steps:

Exterior: Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents.

Interior: Use a damp, soapy cloth to wipe down the interior. Rinse the cloth and wipe again. Do not leave residual water in the oven.

Accessories: Use warm water to clean the Rack, Tray, and Crumb Catch. It is highly recommended to clean and dry the Rack and Tray by hand after each use.

Heating Element: Be extremely careful not to touch or damage the fragile quartz heating element while cleaning. A broken tube may result in electric shock.

Crumb Catch: Open the Crumb Catch by pulling toward the front until the latch is released. Do this over a trash can. It will open but not remove entirely. Clean the Crumb Catch weekly if used often.
