5. It is normal if some smoke or smell emanates from the appliance when using it for the first time. This is not harmful as this will be manufacturing residue being burnt off. We recommend operating the appliance for 20 minutes, putting the thermostat on its maximum temperature setting.

Tips:

• Baking rack positioning: the baking rack can be positioned into any of the 3 levels available.
• Always place the baking pan on the lowest level when cooking with the air frying basket or baking rack. The baking pan will catch any grease or crumbs during the cooking cycle.

CONTROLS

• This multifunctional appliance uses rapid air circulation technology to cook food faster and make meals healthier. The air frying mechanism works by circulating super-hot air around your food. This delivers the same crispy texture and rich flavour of your favourite fried foods – with little to no oil. That means less fat and calories! The appliance can also be used as your regular, everyday toaster/convection oven and features 5 easy-to-use functions: Air Fry, Bake, Rotisserie, Grill and Toast.
• The appliance features six heating elements – four on top, two on the bottom. A built-in 60-minute timer and adjustable thermostat of up to 230°C let’s you customize cooking for every dish. A built-in safety micro switch automatically stops operation when the door is open.

Indicator lights and control dials

• The Power indicator light, located on the left side, turns blue once the Timer is activated, indicating the appliance is currently on. It is used to set the desired time for all functions. Setting the timer powers the unit on and begins the cooking cycle.
• The Heating indicator light, located on the right side, turns orange when the appliance heats up, and turns off once the set temperature has been reached. It will then cycle on and off as it regulates and maintains the set temperature.
• The Function Dial is used to select the cooking method. Five different functions are available: Air Fry, Bake, Rotisserie, Grill and Toast.
• The cooking process can be stopped at any moment by turning the timer dial back to 0.
• The safety micro-switch stops the cooking operation when the door is open.
• Remember to turn the temperature dial back to the starting point after each use to make sure you are adjusting correct temperature settings for each new  cooking process.

AIR FRY

• Use the air fry function to Air Fry as a healthy alternative to frying without the use of excess amounts of oil. This function lets you cook with less fat and calories and gives the food a lighter and less greasy taste. The air frying basket can be used to cook small foods such as chips, wedges and chicken wings.
• Preheating is not necessary for the air fry function but can be used to speed up the cooking process. Keep in mind that preheating will interfere with recommended cooking times.
• If the appliance is already hot, remove 3 minutes from the  recommended cooking time.

Notes:

• The quantity of food air fried at one time, the thickness or density of the food and whether the food is fresh, thawed or frozen may alter the total cooking time.
• Although oil is not necessary, a small portion of oil can be sprayed on or brushed onto food for air frying. Make sure to distribute the oil evenly on food to ensure even cooking results.
• When cooking a large amount of food, it is recommended to turn food halfway through to ensure even cooked results
• Frying smaller batches will result in shorter cooking times. Adjust air frying temperatures and times as required to best suit your individual taste.

1. Place the crumb tray inside the bottom of the appliance to catch any grease or crumbs during the cooking cycle.
2. Begin by preheating the appliance.
3. With the forks of the rotisserie bar removed, insert the rotisserie bar into the centre of the food. Attach the forks to the rotisserie bar and move the forks up into the food to clamp the food securely at either end. Secure the forks in place by turning the screws to avoid food slipping or falling off the rotisserie.

We recommend banding or cutting off the wings before roasting to prevent  them contacting the heating elements during use of the rotisserie function. For cooking larger sized whole chickens, we recommend use of the baking pan

If you choose to use foil to cover the drip tray/baking pan, be sure the foil is cut to neatly fit into the pan and does not touch the wall or heating elements.
