7 COOKING PROGRAMS
ROAST
Best for roasting
vegetables
and meats.
AIR FRY
Best for fresh foods
like chicken wings
and your favourite
frozen snacks.
BAKE
Best for making
cakes and other
baked desserts.
KEEP WARM
Use to maintain warm
ingredients at a food-
safe temperature.
DEHYDRATE
Best for making
veggie/fruit crisps
and jerky.
REHEAT
Best for reviving
leftovers.
PROOF
Create an
environment for
dough to rest and rise.
TIPS AND TRICKS
TOSS
For best results, toss food frequently with
silicone-tipped tongs or utensils to get it
as crispy as you’d like.
PROOF
Remove divider from drawer, add 2 tablespoons water, then install both
crisper plates. Place a piece of parchment slightly larger than dough on the
center of plates. Spray surface of dough with cooking spray, then place on
top of parchment. Insert drawer in unit. Select MEGAZONE, select PROOF,
set temperature to 30–40°C, and set time to 2 hours. Proof until dough has
doubled in size.
CRISPER PLATES
The crisper plates promote overall browning. Ensure the
crisper plates are inserted in the bottom of the drawer
before food is added unless recipe states that the crisper
plates are not required.
TIP: Type of dough will impact length of proof, so start checking
dough after 1 hour and adjust time and temperature as needed.
NOTE: Carefully install crisper trays to ensure they are
inserted correctly.

TIP: If cooking smaller amounts of food, use the recommended temperature, but reduce the time.
For best results, check food periodically and shake or toss it often until it reaches the desired doneness.
*After cutting potatoes, allow raw fries to soak in cold water for at least 30 minutes
to remove unnecessary starch. Pat fries dry. The drier the fries, the better the result.
