CONVECTION OVEN COOKING
Using circulating air, the convection oven cooks food quickly, eciently and uses much
less energy than conventional cooking methods� Another benet is reduced clean up time�
Because it can cook on more than one level, the convection oven will cook dishes that
would normally require numerous pots and pans to wash� In fact, one of the many features
of the convection oven is that it helps to clean itself! The hot air method of cooking
ensures an even distribution of heat around the food� One of the eects of this is that
surface of meat etc� is quickly sealed so it retains much of the succulence of original avor
that is often lost with the conventional methods�
There are very few dishes that need fat to assist in the cooking process when cooked in the
convection oven� Less fat in cooking is always healthier�

APPLIANCE USE
IMPORTANT
THAWING FOOD
The convection oven will thaw most foods� Simply place onto one of the wire Racks, set
the Thermostat to THAW and allow approximately 40 minutes per 1 kg� Large items like
meat joins should be turned at least once during the thawing process� Any liquids or juices
from thawed food should be thoroughly cleaned from the Bowl before cooking�
If you need to remove the lid during the cooking process, lifting the lid will stop the heater
and the turbo fan while you attend to the dish. Simply replace the lid and place it in the down
position to resume cooking.
1. Plug the appliance into the wall outlet and press down the on/o switch� The LCD
display will turn on�
2. Set the cooking time and temperature using one of the following methods:
a� Adjust time (0-120 min), by pressing “+” or “-“ Knobs (F)
b� Adjust temperature (122-482F), by pressing temperature setting button (D)
c� Adjust Fan Speed by Pressing Fan Speed Key (K)
d� If you want to reset the cooking time and temperature, press Cancel Button (F)
e� A special Feature:
With this appliance you can delay the cooking time up to 24 hours� To set a delayed
cooking time, you can press the Program Button, and the symbol will ash on LCD
display, now you can set delayed time with the + and - buttons (C)�
If you want to set the cooking time, you can press Timer Button (M) again� The symbol will
begin ashing on the display� Now you can set the cooking time with the + and - buttons (C)�
3. Press the Start button (E)�
The heating elements may go o before the set time is up� This means that the desired
temperature has been reached� However, the heat circulation system would keep running
until time is completely over�
4. When the time is over (0:00), there will be a signal� Unplug the appliance and lift up the
Lid, and be careful not to burn yourself� Before the set up time is over, user can pause the
operation by simply lifting the lid and resume cooking by closing it�
5. To cancel the cooking operation before the time is up, press the CANCEL button, then
lift the lid and unplug�
6. There are also one-touch settings for easy use� Refer to page 10 for PRESET functions:

FROZEN FOOD
Large items like meat joints or poultry cannot be cooked frozen and must be thawed
thoroughly rst� However, some foods cook best frozen� Simply follow the cooking
instructions on the packaging as a guideline� It is often the case that cooking time is
shorter in the convection oven as it’s more ecient than a conventional oven�
TOASTING
You can toast almost anything in the convection oven: bread, bagels, pizza, crumpets etc�
For better results use the High Rack and set temperature to 428-446 F depending upon
your preference� It is unlikely that the item you are toasting will need to be turned over
halfway through cooking� The hot circulation air will usually toast both sides at once�
GRILLING
As with toasting, items to be grilled should be placed on the High Rack and should be between 428-
464 F� When deciding the best temperature setting to use, consider the thickness of the food� A 3 cm
thick steak would require a lower temperature and longer cooking time than a 1 cm thick steak� Also
remember that frozen food like burgers need a longer cooking time� You may wish to turn the food
halfway through the grilling process to ensure even coloring�
BAKING AND STEAMING
The temperature for cooking of uncovered dishes is usually 68 to 104 F lower than in the
traditional oven� No pre-heating is necessary in convection oven when baking�
Ordinarily, the centre of a cake batter will be moist, while the section closest to rim of the
baking pan will be done rst� For this reason, a bunt cake pan or tube pan is better to use
than the larger layered cake pans�

or preparing dish.

GRILLING AND BROILING
For broiling or grilling with a convection oven, the temperature should be set between
428-480 F� No pre-heating is necessary in the convection oven when baking� Food should
be placed on the rack without covering� To bring the food closer to source of the heating
air, the High Rack should be used� Add hickory liquid smoke or mesquite to get a smoky
avor� Any seasonings should be applied to the surface of the meat�
If the sh or meat is lean, spray the rack or grill with non-stick vegetable oil, or brush with
cooking oil prior to arranging the sh/ meat on the grill� This will minimize food sticking to
the grill�
For browner or more seared surfaces, broil on both sides as with thick stocks or steaks� For
thinner pieces, no turning is necessary�
ROASTING
Lining the bottom of the Bowl with aluminum foil (leaving an inch of rim) will catch drippings
if desired� To let hot air freely circulate, use the low Rack� The propelled hot air cooks meat
evenly and seals in the juice, so turning and basting is not necessary� A meat thermometer is
recommended� However, if one isn’t handy, go by the time temperature table given here (see
page 9), or follow the chart given for conventional ovens and subtract 77F�
ROAST WHOLE CHICKEN
Rinse chicken thoroughly and add desired seasonings� Spices such as garlic, black
pepper and salt are suggested� Before roasting, allow seasonings to penetrate for a few
hours� The base of the Bowl can be lined with aluminum foil to catch drippings� Roast for
approximately 30 minutes per 1 kg at 390F�
WHOLE ROASTS
With the fatty portion facing upward, place meat directly on low rack� Apply seasoning to
your tastes� Insert meat thermometer� Temperature for roasting is usually 77F less than for
regular or conventional roasting� Cooking time depends on type and size of roast�
CAKES
Pre-heat the oven to 428-446 F for 3 minutes� When selecting an appropriate cake tin to
use, be sure that it will t comfortably in the Bowl� Always place the cake tin on the Low
Rack - never directly onto the bottom of the Bowl� When using the recipes from elsewhere,
subtract 50 F from the recommended cooking temperature� Cooking time depends
entirely upon the size of cake you are making but it is easy to monitor its progress with the
see-through glass Bowl�
BISCUITS AND PASTRIES
You may use your own special frying pan (please make sure the frying pan is allowed to be
used in the ovens like this!) and place it on the Low Rack� Don’t forget to lightly grease the
pan you are going to use rst� The best temperature for biscuits and pastries is 428-446 F�
Cooking times various but is generally 12-15 minutes for biscuits�

8
PIES
Pre-cooked (unfrozen) pies could not be easier� Place on High Rack and cook for 8-12
minutes at 428F� Frozen or uncooked pies use the same position and temperature, but
increase the cooking time usually to 20-25 minutes� This can vary depending on the size
and content of the pie�
EGGS
Hard or soft-boiled eggs are unbelievably easy in the convection oven� For starters, there
is no boiling involved! Simply place up to 6 eggs into the pan and put the pan on the High
Rack and set the temperature to 390 F, set the timer to 6 minutes for soft-boiled or 10
minutes for hard-boiled� Always use tongs to carefully remove the eggs after cooking�
BREAD ROLLS
To reheat fresh bread rolls, wrap each roll with foil, place on the Low Rack and heat at 390F
for 5-7 minutes� If the rolls are a few days old they can be refreshed by brushing them with
a little milk, placing them on the High Rack, and heating for 6-9 minutes at 356F�
COOKING WITH THE EXTENSION RING
If you need to cook something of a larger size (whole chicken, turkey, stued turkey, etc.) you
can put the Extension Ring on the top of the Bowl� The extension ring gives extra volume
you may need for cooking�
Note: Make sure you properly attach the Extension Ring (13)!
