TIPS

For best results, place food in a single layer and leave space between pieces.
When cooking high fat content food, we recommend using an oven-proof dish to prevent the oil dripping. This will facilitate the cleaning process. Discard excess oil in between batches.
We recommend using the mesh tray for fries or frozen meals. For larger items, you can place it directly onto the rack (or oven-proof dish).
If you notice excess browning using the air fry mode, switch to bake mode and choose a lower temperature to allow the food to cook through. Air fry mode can be selected again to crisp up the outside. Not all food are designed to be cooked using only the air fry mode as it would result in overcooking the outside and not fully cooked on the inside.

DEHYDRATE FUNCTION

The default temperature for dehydrating is 70°C. The range for the dehydrate function is 50°C–80°C.

NOTE: Cut the food to even size and thickness.

CARE AND CLEANING

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning any part, be sure the oven is off, unplugged, and cool.

Clean the glass door with a sponge, soft cloth, or nylon pad and warm, soapy water. Do not use a spray cleaner.
To remove the slide rack, open the door, pull the rack forward and out.
Wire rack, mesh cooking basket and crumb/steam tray are dishwasher safe. We recommend washing the baking pan by hand in hot water with dish soap.
The top surface of the crumb tray has a (PTFE and PFOA free) non-stick ceramic coating.
Do not use metal scouring pad to clean the tray as it will damage the coating.
Do not use aerosol or spray oven cleaners.

STEAM CLEANING YOUR OVEN

Use the Steam Clean function for a quick cleanup of your oven.
NOTE: For best results, clean regularly based on your frequency of usage.
The function works best when food residue does not build up.
NOTE: For very stubborn baked-on food or grease, see the “Deep Cleaning Your Oven” section below.
IMPORTANT: Do not steam clean immediately after cooking. Let the oven cool down.
NOTE: Do not pour water on the crumb tray when the crumb tray is hot.

Mix one drop of dish soap and 1/2 cup water. Use distilled water if possible.
Pour the soapy water onto the crumb tray. Spread the water around the tray. Make sure the tray is in its normal position.
Close the door and press the steam clean button. This will illuminate the steam clean icon and change the display to show “SC”.
Press the start/stop button to begin the steam clean cycle. The display will cycle between showing the time remaining and “SC”.
The steam clean cycle runs for 5 minutes. This includes time for the oven to cool down.
Once the cycle is complete, the oven will beep twice and the display will show “0.00”.
Open the oven door and use a towel, paper towel, or sponge to wipe down the interior surfaces and glass door. For best results wipe down right after the cycle as condensation helps the cleaning. If significant time has passed and water condensation is no longer visible on glass door or walls, re-run the cycle for best cleaning results.
There will be some residual water left on the tray. When wiping the back of the oven or sides, use caution as the oven may be warm.
After you have wiped down the oven, use oven mitts or towel to carefully remove the crumb/steam tray and bring it to the sink. Empty the residual water from the tray and rinse off the crumb tray. The tray may require some additional scrubbing to remove any stubborn baked-on food. You can also place the crumb tray in the dishwasher if desired.
NOTE: Use steam cleaning setting for cleaning only. This setting is not designed to steam cook foods.
NOTE: Make sure soap is added to the water. Using soap ensures the proper condensation of water.
Wipe the outside of the oven with a damp cloth or sponge. Do not use a spray cleaner. Dry thoroughly.
Do not attempt to clean the heating elements. Any food that comes into contact with the elements will burn off on its own.

DEEP CLEANING YOUR OVEN

After using your oven for an extended period of time, it may be necessary to deep clean your oven to remove baked-on stains, or grease.

Ensure the crumb tray is in place but other accessories are removed.
Create a mixture of 3 parts baking soda and 1 part water. This will create a baking soda cleaning paste, but it should not be too thick
Apply some of the paste to a paper towel, sponge or nylon pad.
Scrub the stained areas with the baking soda paste with medium pressure. Continue scrubbing until the surfaces are clean.
Using a moist sponge, wipe away the remaining soda paste. Clean up any baking soda paste that may have fallen onto the crumb tray during the cleaning process.

Legislation in some localities mandates that e-waste (anything with a plug, battery or cord) is disposed of through controlled recycling facilities and must not be disposed of in general household waste. For more information about recycling of electrical and battery operated appliances, please contact your local council or your local household waste disposal service.

1 pound fresh green beans
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
½ cup shredded parmesan
1 Tbsp. granulated garlic
1 tsp. smoked paprika
1 tsp. dried parsley
2 eggs
½ cup flour
1 tsp. salt
½ tsp. ground black pepper

Remoulade Sauce:

½ cup mayonnaise
1 Tbsp. whole grain mustard
½ tsp. pickle juice
1 tsp. minced garlic

In another bowl, place the eggs and whisk them. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, and dried parsley.
Line a rimmed baking pan with either parchment paper, foil, or plastic wrap. Sprinkle some of the breadcrumb mixture on it to help keep the green beans from sticking. Set aside.
Line up your bowls on the counter, with the flour bowl first, then the eggs, and lastly the bowl with the breadcrumbs.
Start by dredging the green beans in the seasoned flour, then dipping in the eggs, and lastly dredging in the breadcrumbs. Place on the prepared baking pan. Repeat the process until the beans are all coated.
Transfer the coated green beans into the mesh cooking basket for the toaster oven. Leave a little space between the beans to allow for air flow. Place in the oven and turn the dial to air fry. Set the timer to 5 minutes and push start. Air fry until the green beans are golden brown. Repeat until all the green beans are cooked.

Make the Remoulade Sauce: While the green beans are cooking combine the ingredients in a small bowl and stir until blended. Taste and adjust seasonings if desired. Set aside. Use this as a dip for the green beans.

NASHVILLE HOT CHICKEN TENDERS

Serves 8

Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

1kg boneless chicken breast tenders
1 tsp salt
½ tsp coarsely ground black pepper
2 tsp granulated garlic
2 tbsp. hot sauce
2 tbsp pickle juice
½ cup flour
1 large egg
½ cup buttermilk
2 cups panko breadcrumbs

Sauce:

2 tbsp cayenne pepper
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
½ cup olive oil

Directions:

Combine the hot sauce, pickle juice, egg, and buttermilk in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Combine the flour, salt, black pepper, and granulated garlic in another medium bowl. Set aside.
Put the panko crumbs in a medium bowl.
Using a baking sheet pan, line it with either parchment paper, foil, or plastic wrap and place it on the counter.
Set the 3 bowls in a row starting with the flour mixture, then the buttermilk mixture and last have the panko breadcrumbs. The baking sheet pan should be next to the panko breadcrumbs. Pro tip: Sprinkle some panko crumbs on the sheet pan- it will help to keep the tenders from sticking to the sheet pan.
Taking one chicken tender at a time, dredge it first in the flour mixture, then dip it in the buttermilk mixture and lastly dredge it in the panko crumbs. Set in the prepared sheet pan.
Repeat this process until all the tenders are coated. Set aside while you make the sauce.
PRO TIP: there’s no easy way to stay clean while dredging the chicken tenders. Try to keep one hand as a ‘wet’ hand and one hand as a ‘dry’ hand. Use right hand to dredge the chicken in the flour, pick up the chicken tender with left hand. Use right hand to place the tender in the buttermilk but use left hand to coat the tender. Then use left hand to lift the tender out of the buttermilk and place the tender in the panko. Use right hand to coat the tender in the panko
and then place the finished tender on the sheet pan. Set aside while you make the sauce.
Make the sauce: Whisk together all the ingredients in a small bowl until evenly combined or put all ingredients in a mason jar, cover with the lid and shake until all ingredients are mixed. Set aside until tenders are cooked.
Turn on the toaster oven and set it to Air Fry. Transfer some of the chicken tenders to the air fry basket, spritz with pan spray, and put it in the oven. Cook for 20 minutes, or until chicken is 75C.
Place the chicken tenders on a plate or a serving platter and immediately pour some of the sauce over the top (you will need to re-whisk or shake if using a mason jar before pouring).
Repeat until all the tenders are cooked and have the sauce poured over them. Serve immediately with pickle slices.
