ACCESSORY STORAGE PLACEMENT

BEFORE FIRST USE

1. Remove and discard any packaging material, promotional labels, and tape from the unit.
2. Remove all accessories from the package and read this manual carefully. Please pay particular attention to operational instructions, warnings, and important safeguards to avoid any injury or property damage.
3. Wash the air fry basket, wire rack, and removable crumb tray in warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly with non-abrasive sponge. Wash the high-density pan thoroughly in hot, soapy water.
4. NEVER submerge the main unit in water or place in dishwasher.
   We recommend placing the wire rack, high-density pan, and air fry basket inside the oven and running it on Air Fry at 450˚F for 20 minutes without adding food. Make  sure the area is well ventilated, as some odor may be released. This removes any packaging residue and odor traces that may be present. This is completely safe and not  detrimental to the performance of the oven.
   NOTE: For longest use, we recommend hand-washing the accessories. The air fry basket and wire rack can be put in the dishwasher, but this may cause them to wear more quickly over time.

2. Press the TIME/SLICES buttons to select a reheat time up to 2 hours. Time will adjust in 1-minute increments under 1 hour and 5-minute increments over 1 hour.
3. Press the TEMP/SHADE button to select a temperature between 100°F and 450°F. Temperature will adjust in 5-degree increments.
4. Place food on the high-density pan or in an oven-safe container and place the pan or container on the wire rack into the bottom rails. Close oven door and press the  setting dial to begin cooking.
5. When cook time is complete, the unit will beep and “END HOT” will appear on the display.
   NOTE: There is no preheat with Reheat.

ALTERNATIVE TO PIZZA PEEL
We recommend a pizza peel as the best method for transferring fresh dough onto the preheated high-density pan. If you do not have a pizza peel, use the following instructions.

1. Measure a large sheet of parchment paper to match the size of the highdensity pan.
   Then take the parchment paper and set it on a cutting board or other flatsurface to roll out your fresh pizza dough with flour to your desired thickness.

2. Place your toppings and ingredients on the fresh dough. Once the high-density pan has preheated, using oven mitts, slide the high-density pan partially out of the oven  and transfer the fresh pizza with the parchment paper onto the high-density pan. Slide the highdensityy pan back into the oven and close the door.
   

3. After 3 to 4 minutes of cook time, you can remove the parchment paper from the bottom of the pizza. Use oven mitts to slide the high-density pan partially out of the  oven and carefully slide the parchment out from underneath pizza by grabbing one of the corners. Slide the high-density pan back into the oven and close the door. If  you leave the parchment paper during the cook cycle, the paper may become brittle.
   

NOTE: The parchment paper should not touch any of the heating elements or the inside oven walls as it could cause smoke. DO NOT use parchment paper on Broil or  above the recommended manufacturer’s instructions.

EVERYDAY CLEANING
The unit should be cleaned thoroughly after every use.

1. Unplug the unit from the outlet and allow it to cool down before cleaning.

2. Empty crumb tray by sliding it out of the oven when the oven is in the flippeddown position. Clean accessories after each use.
   Accessories are hand-wash recommended. The air fry basket and  wire rack can be put in the dishwasher, but may wear more quickly over time.
   NOTE: Empty crumb tray frequently.
   Hand-wash when necessary.

3. To clean any food splatter on the interior walls of the unit, wipe them with a soft, damp sponge. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners, scrubbing brushes, or chemical cleaners,  as they will damage the oven

4. To clean the exterior of the main unit and the control panel, wipe them clean with a damp cloth. A non-abrasive liquid cleanser or mild spray solution may be used.  Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the oven surface, before cleaning. NOTE: DO NOT submerge unit in water or place in dishwasher.

CLEANING, MAINTENANCE & STORAGE

HIGH-DENSITY PAN CLEANING
The high-density pan should be cleaned thoroughly after every use.

1. Remove the high-density pan from the oven and allow it to cool down before cleaning.
   HIGH-DENSITY PAN CLEANING CONTINUED
   NOTE: Always allow the high-density pan to cool before immersing in water.
   Temperature shock could cause the highdensity pan to be damaged or warp.

2. Use hot, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge to wash the high-density pan.
   DO NOT place high-density pan in the dishwasher.

3. For deep cleaning, soak the high-density pan overnight in hot, soapy water, and then wash it in the morning. This can also help restore nonstick performance.

HIGH-DENSITY PAN CARE

1. To extend the life of the high-density pan, DO NOT use metal or sharp utensils or cut foods on it.

2. Make sure to wash after every use.
   The nonstick performance can wear if there is burned grease or food residue built up on the surface.

3. DO NOT store food on the high-density pan as it can cause staining. It should remain clean when not in use.

DEEP CLEANING

1. Allow the unit to cool down, then unplug the unit from the outlet before cleaning.

2. Remove all accessories from the unit, including the crumb tray, and wash separately. Use a non-abrasive cleaning brush to wash the air fry basket more thoroughly. Soak  accessories overnight in hot, soapy water. The air fry basket and wire rack can be put in the dishwasher, but may wear more quickly over time.

3. Use warm, soapy water and a soft cloth to wash the oven’s interior. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners, scrubbing brushes, or chemical cleaners, as they will damage the  oven.

4. To prolong use of accessories, hand-wash with warm, soapy water.
   NOTE: NEVER put the main unit in the dishwasher or immerse it in water or any other liquid.

5. Thoroughly dry all parts before placing them back in the oven.
   

FLIP-UP-AND-AWAY STORAGE

1. DO NOT flip unit up when it is hot or in use. FLIP will appear on the display when unit is cooled and ready to flip.
   Wait for unit to cool down before handling. Hold handles on each side of the unit. DO NOT unplug the unit after use until FLIP appears. The fan will continue to run  after cooking has completed for about 15 minutes or until the unit’s temperature is 95°F. This is normal and not a cause for concern.
   

2. Lift and flip unit upward using the handles on each side of the unit.
   

3. Leave the unit in the upright position when storing or for deep cleaning. Accessories can be stored inside while in the upright position. See Accessory Storage Placement  section on page 5 for correct placement.

FAQ
Why won’t the oven turn on?

• Oven needs to be in flipped-down position in order to power it on.
• Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the outlet.
• Insert the power cord into a different outlet.
• Reset the circuit breaker if necessary.
• Press the power button.

Can I use the high-desnity pan instead of the air fry basket with air fry function?

• Yes, but flipping ingredients during cooking is required, and levels of crispiness may vary.

Do I need to adjust the cook times and temperatures of traditional oven recipes?

• For best results, keep an eye out on your food while cooking. Refer to cook charts in the Inspiration Guide for more guidance on cook times and temperatures.

Should I add my ingredients before or after preheating?

• For Dual Heat functions, preheating the high-density pan is required before adding ingredients. If you do not preheat the high-density pan, food may be cooked  improperly.
• For Oven Mode functions, preheating the high-density pan or other accessories is not required, but adding ingredients before the unit finishes preheating may impact  cooking performance.

Why is my food undercooked or overcooked?

• Do not add food until recommended preheat time is complete. For best results, check progress throughout cooking, and remove food if desired level of brownness has  been achieved. Remove food immediately after the cook time is complete to avoid overcooking.
• This unit cooks faster than a traditional oven. Always keep an eye on your food while cooking.

Can I restore the unit to its default settings?

• The oven will remember the last setting used for each function, even if you unplug it. To restore the oven’s default settings for each function, press the TIME/SLICE  and TEMP/SHADE buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds.

Why do the heating elements appear to be turning on and off?

• This is normal. The oven is designed to control temperature precisely for every function by adjusting the heating elements’ power levels.

Why is steam coming out from the oven door?

• This is normal. The door is vented to release steam created by foods with a high moisture content.

Why is water dripping onto the counter from under the door?

• This is normal. The condensation created by foods with a high moisture content (such as frozen breads) may run down the inside of the door and drip onto the counter.

Why is there noise coming from from the control panel or back of unit?

• When the oven is hot, a fan turns on to cool down the control panel.

Why does the unit sound like it is still running even though the power is off?

• The cooling fan may continue to run even after the unit has been turned off. This is a normal function and should not be a source of concern. The cooling fan will stop  after the temperature of the unit is below 95°F.
