User note
The convection oven is a new, inexpensive and
portable device with all advantages of bigger
convection ovens. It operates fast and saves
energy.
•
If you are trying a recipe for the fi rst time with
your convection oven, observe the cooking or
baking process whilst looking through the lid.
The cooking time of the convection oven is
shorter.
•
Make sure to evenly distribute the food in
the oven in order to allow for a steady and
maximum air circulation.
•
Place the ingredients in the center of the bowl
(9). Keep space of 2.5 cm to 3.5 cm to the
stainless steel wall.
•
Use the grill racks as dual stands for the
ingredients to be placed at different levels
(see table of cooking guide). Avoid piling
ingredients on one level, for cooking more
food, Allow the air to circulate around the
food, if not only the surface of the food will be
cooked.
•
Place the steam attachment on one of the grill
racks. You may steam vegetables along with
cooking the main dish by wrapping them in
aluminum foil.
Caution:
The foil must be wrapped safely in order not
to fl y away or being sucked into the fan.
•
If the cooking process fi nishes before the
preset time has elapsed, please turn the
temperature control (4) to OFF. Leave the fan
on in order to keep the food crispy.

Cooking guide for the
Convection Oven
Instructions for roasting
•
Place the roast on the lower grill rack. Add
some water, but only covering the bottom of
the stainless steel bowl.
•
Turn the roast 1 or 2 times during cooking,
basting it with the gravy.
Instructions for baking
•
Use the grill racks as dual stands in order to
place the ingredients at different levels.
•
Turn thick meat pieces after half of the cooking
time has elapsed.
Instructions for steaming
Fill the bottom of the bowl with some water and
tasty herbs and spices for steaming vegetables
or fi sh.
Instructions for baking
•
You may place any heat resistant baking pan
onto the lower grill rack. Because of the air
circulation the diameter should be of maximum
26 cm.
•
If you want to bake a very juicy cake without
a crust, attach aluminum foil over the baking
pan. Remove the foil shortly before the cake
is done, so the top of the cake may slightly dry
up.
•
Cakes and other cookies are baked a little bit
faster than in other common ovens.
•
Place frozen pizza directly on the upper grill
rack.
Instructions for toasting
•
You may toast bread and snacks without
preheating the oven.
•
Place the bakery products on one of the grill
racks.
•
Slightly moisten bread rolls that are from
the previous day. This way they will crisp up
nicely.
•
You may also warm up older snacks such
as crackers, chips or cookies. Bake them at
maximum heat for a few minutes only, so they
will become crispy again.
Instructions for defrosting
•
The convection oven provides for a more
evenly defrosting process than a microwave.
•
Set the temperature control to DEFROST.
Check the food every 5 to 10 minutes.
•
In order to cook frozen food, lower the speci-
fi ed temperature by 20°C. The cooking time in
the convection oven is also 30 - 50 % shorter
(e.g. 10 to 15 minutes instead of 20 minutes).
Instructions for reheating
Use lower temperatures when reheating in order
not to burn your food. Check the food every 5 to
10 minutes.
