10 minutes before entering standby mode. Press the START/
CANCEL button on the control panel to re-activate any of  
the functions.
M.  FUNCTION dial.    
N.  TEMPERATURE dial (also toast & bagel browning 
control dial)           
O.  TIME dial (also toast & bagel slice selection / pizza size 
selection dial)
P.        CONVECTION button - uses fan assistance for faster, 
more even & energy efficient cooking.
Q.        TEMPERATURE CONVERSION button - converts the 
preset Fahrenheit reading to Celsius.
R.        FROZEN FOODS button - adds the recommended 
additional time to defrost then cook frozen foods.
TOAST FUNCTION: Evenly toasts bread so it’s crisp and crunchy on the outside, while soft and moist on the inside.
Rack Position: Middle
Optional Settings:        FROZEN FOODS button.
Note: During the toasting cycle, condensation may form on the oven door and steam may be emitted. This is normal - caused by the moisture 
content of the bread. Freshly baked and frozen breads generally produce more condensation.
BAGEL FUNCTION: Crisps the insides of your cut bagel while only lightly toasting the outside. 
Rack Position: Middle
Optional Settings:        FROZEN FOODS button. 
Note: Slice each bagel into two equal halves. The inside (cut side) of the bagel must always face upwards towards the top heating elements - so 
the cut side becomes crisp while the crust is only lightly toasted.
BAKE FUNCTION: Bakes cakes, muffins, brownies and pastries evenly throughout.  Also is ideal for cooking pre-packaged frozen 
meals including lasagna and pot pies.
Rack Position: Bottom
Optional Settings:        CONVECTION button           TEMPERATURE CONVERSION button           FROZEN FOODS button
ROAST FUNCTION: Cooks a variety of meats and poultry that are tender and juicy inside and roasted to perfection outside.
Rack Position: Bottom
Optional Settings:        CONVECTION button           TEMPERATURE CONVERSION button. 
BROIL FUNCTION: Ideal for open sandwiches, small cuts of meat, poultry, fish, sausages and vegetables. Broiling can also be used to 
brown the tops of casseroles and gratins.
Rack Position: Top
Optional Settings:        TEMPERATURE CONVERSION button.
Note: There are three broiling temperature settings - 500°F (HIGH), 400°F (MEDIUM), 300°F (LOW).  This determines how quickly the tops of your 
food brown - depending on the food, quantity and your personal taste. 
Note: When broiling, the Breville enamel broil rack must be inserted into the Breville baking pan. When assembled together, the broil rack 
is designed to drain grease and fats away from meats for healthier cooking. The baking pan collects these pan drippings and helps prevent 
spattering. Depending on the food being broiled, it may be necessary to turn food over half way through the cooking time to achieve even  
cooking and browning.
PIZZA FUNCTION: Melts and browns cheese and toppings, while crisping the pizza crust.
Rack Position: Middle
Optional Settings:        CONVECTION button           TEMPERATURE CONVERSION button           FROZEN FOODS button

more evenly and quickly. Each of the oven’s functions are preset with our recommended settings, however we suggest experimenting

oven until changed or the oven is unplugged from the wall outlet.
Remove any packing material, promotional stickers and tape from the oven. Wipe the oven interior with a soft damp sponge and 
wash all accessories in warm soapy water.  Allow all surfaces to dry thoroughly before use.
