At Kambrook, we believe that safe performance is the first priority in any
consumer product, so that you, our valued customer, can confidently
use and trust our products. We ask that any electrical appliance that
you use be operated in a sensible fashion with due care and attention
placed on the following important operating instructions.
Important Safeguards For Your

material and promotional labels before using
the Mini Oven for the first time.
• Do not place metallic objects such as knives,
forks, spoons and lids on the stove top hotplate
surface as they can become very hot.
• To eliminate a choking hazard for young
children, remove and safely discard the
protective cover fitted to the power plug of
this appliance.
• Do not operate the hotplate without a
cooking pot or pan positioned on the hotplate
heating surface.
• Always ensure the crumb tray is thoroughly
dried after cleaning and is reinserted into
position before operating the Mini Oven.
• Do not place the Mini Oven near the edge of
a bench or table during operation. Ensure the
surface is level, clean and free of water and
other substances.
• When using the Mini Oven, provide sufficient
clearance (minimum 50mm) above and on all
sides for air circulation.
• Do not use the Mini Oven on a sink
drain board.
• This appliance is not intended to be operated
by means of an external timer or separate
remote control system.
• Do not place this Mini Oven on or near a hot
gas or electric burner, or where it could touch
a heated oven.
• Always ensure the Mini Oven is properly
assembled before use.
• Position the Mini Oven at a minimum distance
of 50cm away from walls, curtains, cloths and
other heat sensitive materials when in use.
• Always place the wire oven rack into top,
middle or bottom rack support guide inside
the oven in an upward rack return position.
• Always operate the Mini Oven on a stable
and heat resistant surface. Do not use on a
cloth-covered surface, near curtains or other
flammable materials.
• The door or the outer surface may get hot
when the appliance is operating.
• The temperature of accessible surfaces will be
high when the appliance is operating and for
some time after use.
• Do not place cardboard, plastic, paper or
other flammable materials into the Mini Oven.

Using Your Mini Oven
Remove and safely discard any
packaging material and promotional
stickers before using the stove top
oven for the first time.
To eliminate a choking hazard for
young children, remove and safely
discard the protective cover fitted to
the power plug of this appliance.
The Element Selection Dial
The element selection dial allows you
to select ‘top and bottom’ elements
‘bottom only’ element, ‘top only’
element, as well as ‘hotplate’ element.
= ‘Top element only’ for grilling.
= ‘Bottom element only’
for reheating.
1. Place the mini oven on a level,
flat surface.
2. Set the element control dial to
.
= ‘Top & bottom elements’
together for roasting, toasting
and baking.
3. Plug the appliance into a 230V or
240V power outlet. Switch on at
the power outlet.
4. Set the temperature control dial
to MAX and time for 15 minutes
using a separate timer.
= Hotplate element for
heating and boiling.
This will eliminate any oil residue that
may have been used for packing
and shipping.
NOTE: To turn off the mini oven,
always turn both oven and
hotplate temperature control
dials to the OFF ‘0’ positions and
switch off at the power outlet.
NOTE: The mini oven does
not have an inbuilt timer, so a
separate timer will be required
in order to measure cooking
duration. The appliance is not
intended to be operated by
means of an external timer or
separate remote control system.
Heating Indicator Light
The heating indicator light will
illuminate as the oven is heating
and will turn off when the oven has
reached the selected temperature. It
will also cycle on and off throughout
the cooking process.
When turned on for the first time,
the mini oven may give off vapours
for up to 15 minutes. This is due to
the protective substances on both
the oven heating elements and
hotplate heating element. It is safe,
not detrimental to the performance
of the mini oven and will dissipate
with use.
Pre-heating
For best results allow the mini oven
to pre-heat before using. Select the
desired temperature and select the
desired element setting. Place the
food into the mini oven and set a
separate timer to monitor the
cooking time.
5. Allow the oven to cool. Insert the
accessories. The stove top oven is
now ready to use.

not have an inbuilt timer, so a
separate timer will be required.
7. Leave the door slightly ajar,
leaving a minimum 50mm gap at
the top, rear and all sides of the
oven. This will ensure adequate
airflow during grilling.
