Cooking Guidelines
Takecarewhenfryingastheoilandfatheatupveryquickly,particularlyifyou’reusing
powerboost.Atextremelyhightemperaturesoilandfatwillignitespontaneouslyandthis
presentsaseriousrerisk.
Cooking Tips
• Whenfoodcomestotheboil,reducethetemperaturesetting.
• Usingalidwillreducecookingtimesandsaveenergybyretainingtheheat
• Minimisetheamountofliquidorfattoreducecookingtimes
• Startcookingonahighsettingandreducethesettingwhenthefoodhasheatedthrough.
Heat Settings
