You can adjust the screws closer to the middle if needed, but never outwards towards the ends.
Ensure that the roast meat or chicken is not too large and is able to rotate freely inside the Oven.
Tie up the chicken or other roast meat with cooking string to hold it tightly around the rotisserie stick.

Tray Handle:

COOKING GUIDE:

Please refer to the below cooking guide on recommended use for a range of foods that yield great results using the air fryer programs.

MAKING HOMEMADE FRIES:

For the best results, we advise using pre-baked fries. If you want to make home-made fries, follow the steps below:

1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
2. Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 45 minutes. Take them out and dry them with paper towels.
3. Pour 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil into a bowl, put the sticks on top, and mix until the sticks are coated with oil.
4. Remove the sticks from the bowl with your fingers or with a kitchen utensil so that excess oil stays behind in the bowl. Put the sticks on the mesh rack.
5. Fit the mesh rack inside the Air Fryer Convection Oven. 6. Cook the fries for 15 —18 mins at 200 Degrees.

USING THE ROTISSERIE:

• When the rotisserie stick is fitted inside the slots in the middle of the Air Fryer Convection Oven, press the rotisserie button to activate the rotisserie function.
• The rotisserie fork is a great way to cook a roast chicken inside the Air Fryer Convection Oven as it allows even circulation and thorough cooking.

Note: The total weight of a chicken/meat cooked using the rotisserie stick should not exceed 4 kg, as the rotation will scrape the drip tray (use baking tray) in the bottom of the Air Fryer Convection Oven.
Please use the mesh tray or wire rack if cooking a large chicken. Bind the legs and wings of the chicken with cooking string.

PROOF:

• Proofing is a method used in baking bread. During this time, dough undergoes fermentation and it takes on its final rise before being baked.
• Using the PROOF pre-set option, the warm temperature can increase the activity of the yeast, resulting in faster dough rise.
• The low temperature of 40°C is ideal to achieve this. The time can be adjusted between 1 minute — and 90 minutes.
• After proofing, the bread can be baked.

TIPS:

• Foods that are smaller in size usually require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger ones.
• Large quantities of food only require a slightly longer cooking time than smaller quantities.
• Flipping or turning smaller-sized foods halfway through the cooking process ensures that all the pieces are evenly cooked.
• Misting a bit of vegetable oil on fresh potatoes is suggested for a crispier result. When adding a little oil, do so just before cooking.
• Snacks normally cooked in an oven can also be cooked in the Air Fryer Convection Oven.
• Use the premade dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Premade dough also requires a shorter cooking time than homemade dough.
• Place an oven-safe baking tin or dish (not included) inside the Air Fryer Convection Oven when baking a cake or a quiche. A tin or dish is also suggested when cooking fragile or filled foods.
