is there a way to simply turn "on" for baking. Ours seems to only come on the "toast" position. we cannot seem to set a time cook position--eg, potato

instead of turning counterclockwise to turn on the toast timer you would rotate the knob clockwise into the on position - ours has become intermittent so we swing from toast quickly to "on" and it goes on.

Yes - there is an auto pop-up!! Set the toaster dial to whatever darkness level you want and it pops up when it's done. If it's set too high, it'll burn. Too low - you'll get a warm slice of bread. But if yours doesn't pop up - return it. there's something wrong!!

I believe you need to use the convection bake temp. Ours did not work properly, but when no one was in the room, the light would come on, the fan would start and the convection bake would turn on all by itself. We had to keep it unplug every time we were not using it. Please be watchful. Hope you have better luck than we did.

Easy - just place the bread on a rack a little below center. Set to "bake" at 450. Toasts perfectly in just a few minutes, both sides with no turning. I almost didn't buy this because people said it doesn't toast, but it makes great toast, and toasted cheese sandwiches too. The key is to place it closer to the bottom to get both sides toasted with no turning.

Have you found any alternative? I just started looking into purchasing a bread maker and I'm stuck in the same quandry. I avoid non-stick at all costs, but I can't seem to find a machine without it. Please let me know if you found anything. Thanks! Lyndi

I just turn bottom knob to the right and follow the settings of light, medium, or dark, when making toast or cooking something in the toast/broil mode. If you want to cook something at a specific temperature then set the temperature on the top knob and turn the bottom knob left to the on position. It should stay on in this position until you turn it off.

You are talking about baking, I presume. You use the minus sign under "Time" and press it until it is at the time you want. It is a drag, but it works.

Put rack on middle level. Place bread on rack... The press "toast" button and set time to choice. Press start and that will do it. You can adjust the time to suit you.

Just repush the power button if you want to get the toast earlier.love the toaster oven.

yes, using grill mode but it takes more time than toaster. Kinda like grill on an open fire...

Hello Bo, it has an initial on button, then you select the pre-set time or set a time manually. At the end of the selected cook time it will shut off. When you are totally finished cooking, you should turn off the master power switchfor added safety. It is just that, an added safety feature for, say, a family with kids that like to push buttons just because they are there on the toaster oven. We have found it to be helpful against those small fingers when the grand kids come over. I hope this is helpful for you. We love this thing.

Turn top knob to bake,middle knob to desired temperature, and bottom knob to the left to "on". :)

The on" to the left is for anything other than"toast", ie when you use the oven convection oven, broil or warm functions. You just turn manually the dial to the right as far as you want for toast (all the way to dark for the darkest. For the oven etc. set a temperature, turn the middle dial to the function you want and turn the bottom dial to the left to on.

Joy, finding directions and recipes is a challenge. I had purchased a turbo years ago and a recipe book was provided with it but it has hidden away in some drawer! As a general rule of thumb I use the turbo like a oven and adapt the recipes to the turbo. I bake potatoes, chicken, mac&cheese just to name a few of the things I've cooked in it. It is wonderful to warm up stuff. We have used the turbo since we got rid of the micro-wave 10+ years ago. I would say start out cooking things for a shorter length of time until you get a feel for how long it will take. If you bake a potato for say 45 min in the oven start off at 30 in the turbo. That way if it needs more cooking no harm done. If it's done you want dry it out. Hope this helps

My toaster oven works great. Turn the toaster part down. Mine is set on 4. Golden brown.

I have the two slice one, when you press lets say bagel, the bagel button will come on. Must be a defect I am sure when you press toast there should be a blue light that tells you what you are toasting..as in reheat the blue light comes on. Guess you will have to send it back..

i M arlene, I hope your question pertains to the DeLonghi oven? I printed out the insructns from the almost unreadable book, as follows. (1) Program/ toast (2) Function Selector Knob / Bake (3))Thermostat Knob at Toast/Broil .Use wire rack when toasting, place rack in the #2 slot position. Good luck with your cooking Marlene, let me kno how it works out, Mary W
