TIPS:

  • For best results and recommendation on which food to cook using the Air Fry mode, check the Air Frying guide provided with this product
  • 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 (refer to p8 for a complete list of cooking containers suitable for this toaster oven) to prevent the oil dripping. This will facilitate the cleaning process. Discard excess oil in between batches. Alternatively, place foil at the bottom of the mesh rack to capture excess oil
  • We recommend using the mesh rack for fries or frozen meals. For larger items, you can place it directly onto the rack (or oven-proof dish) and placing foil on the drip tray
  • 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

BAKEFor best results, when baking or cooking, always preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes at the desired temperature setting. For optimal results use middle or lower rack position.

  1. Set temperature selector knob to the desired temperature.
  2. Turn TIMER 1 selector control to 20 and then turn to desired baking time. Select Stay On to bake longer than 60 minutes or to control cooking time yourself. The power indicator light comes on and remains on during the entire baking time.NOTE: You must set the times for the oven to FUNCTION.
  3. Once toaster oven has preheated, open oven door and insert food. Close toaster oven door.
  4. If using the toaster oven timer, there will be an audible signal once the baking cycle is complete. The oven turns off and the power indicator light does out. If not using the toaster oven timer, turn the oven off once the cooking cycle is complete.
  5. Open the toaster oven door. Using oven mitts or pot holders, slide the rack out to remove the cooked food.
  6. Unplug appliance when not in use.
