TIPS

• Foods that are smaller in size usually require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger ones.
• Misting a bit of vegetable oil on fresh potatoes 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.
• 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 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 non-metallic utensils. Do not lift or cut food in the appliance using sharp utensils, such as forks and knives, which can scratch the cooking surface.

COOKING TIMES AND FOOD SAFETY

• To be used purely as a guide
• Check food is cooked through before serving. If in doubt, cook it a bit more.
• Cook meat, poultry, and any derivatives (mince, burgers, etc.) till the juices run clear.
• Cook fish till the flesh is opaque throughout.
• When cooking pre-packed foods, follow any guidelines on the package or label.
