- Misting a bit of vegetable oil on breaded food is suggested for a crispier result. When adding oil, add only a little just before cooking.
- Snacks normally cooked in an oven can also be cooked in the appliance.
- Use premade dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Premade dough also requires a shorter cooking time than homemade dough.
- Place fragile or filled foods in a baking tin or oven dish in the appliance. A baking tin or oven dish is also suggested when baking a cake or quiche.
- You can use the appliance to reheat foods. Simply set the temperature and time to however warm you want your food.
- Wear oven mitts/gloves to protect against accidental contact with the heated surfaces and escaping hot air and steam from opening the appliance.
- To prevent scratching the nonstick coating, use only nonmetallic utensils. Do not lift or cut food in the appliance using sharp utensils, such as forks and knives, which can scratch the cooking surface.
