HOW TO USE
This product uses air flow in conjunction with a halogen element to cook food quickly
and efficiently. Some of the many benefits are:
• Reduced cooking times
• Little or no pre-heating needed
• Even cooking with little or no fat required
• Compact, space-saving design
Before we start, it’s usually a good idea to line the bottom of the bowl with aluminium
foil. This should help with cleaning after use as the foil with catch most crumbs and
fat during the cooking process. If you do it right, you should be able to simply lift out
the foil after cooking leaving the bowl nice and clean. When you shape your foil liner,
make sure it doesn’t come up the side of the bowl more than 1 inch (25mm) as this
could interfere with air circulation.
You can of course use the product without a foil liner in the bottom - some people
might actually like washing up?
Let’s cook a pie!
For this, you won’t need the extender ring. Put the pie on the low rack and put it in the
bowl. Place the motor unit on top of the bowl. Leave the lid up for now.
Set the thermostat to 220C
If it’s a chilled (not frozen) pie, set the timer to 15 mins. TIP: with manual timers like
these, it’s best to turn the knob past where you want it to be then turn it BACK to your
desired time setting.
Connect the motor unit to the mains. Press the lid down until it clicks into place. The
unit will illuminate and the cooking process will begin. During the cooking process, the
light will cycle on and off as it maintains the required temperature.
Cooking time will vary depending on what kind of pie it is. 15 minutes should be more
than enough for most. For pasties, it might be too much time. Long story short: keep
an eye on it. If your pie is frozen, no problem. Just increase the cooking time to 20-
25 mins - same temperature.
It goes without saying, ensure ALL food is piping hot throughout before consuming!

HOW TO USE
Using the mesh racks
Use these in conjunction with the high or low wire racks to cook foods that might fall
through the wire racks. Eg: chips!
For best results use frozen/oven chips. Spread thinly across the mesh racks.
Remember, the product uses hot circulating air to cook food so try to leave plenty of
air space around food you are cooking.
Place 1 mesh rack on the lower wire rack and place 1 mesh rack on the high wire
rack.
Use the extender ring to allow more space for air to circulate. Fit the motor unit
Set temperature to 200C. Set timer to 7 mins
Press lid down until it clicks into place.
Again: 7 minutes is an approximate time. We don’t know how thick or thin your chips
are, so keep an eye on them.
As you become more familiar with the product, you’ll develop a feel for the best
cooking times.
TIP: When removing food, always use the supplied tong accessory to lift the whole
rack out of the oven
ANOTHER TIP: When removing the lid from the oven, use the supplied lid rack
accessory to rest it on
If you’re a lover of bacon, sausage, burgers etc don’t forget to line the bottom of the
bowl with foil. Then observe (with some satisfaction) all the fat that drips on to the foil
during cooking. None of that fat will ever reach your waistline!
Keep this in mind, though, if you are using both racks for double decker type cooking.
Put the food that is likely to drip on the lower rack if possible.

HOW TO USE
GENERAL COOKING GUIDES:
Cakes
Preheat the oven this time. 220-230C for about 3 mins. When selecting an appro-
priate cake tin to use, be sure that it will fit comfortably in the bowl. Always place the
tin on the low rack - never directly on the bottom of the bowl. Cooking time depends
entirely on the volume of the cake you are making. It’s easy to monitor cooking
through the glass bowl though.
Bread Rolls
To reheat, wrap in foil and place on low rack. Set temperature at 200C. Heat for
about 5 mins.
Bacon
Drape rashers directly over high rack. Avoid overlapping. Cook for 7 mins at 200C.
A little more if you like it extra crispy.
Sausage
Place directly on high rack. Set temperature at 180-200C. 10 mins for chilled. 15-
20 mins for frozen (depending on thickness)
Toast
Set directly on high rack. Avoid overlapping. Set temperature to max. No recom-
mended cooking time just take it out when you’re happy with the colour! Usually
there is no need to turn the bread. The air circulation should toast both sides at
once.
Popcorn
Spread about 200g popping corn on to mesh tray. Set temperature to max. Cook-
ing time about 10-12 mins. Look at it go!
TIP: It’s best to use the extender ring for most applications as it allows the air to
circulate better. However, if you are cooking something that needs a “grilled” finish,
eg bacon, then it’s best to use without the extender ring.

Temp (C) Food Amount Time (mins)
200 Whole chicken 1.6kg 60-70
200 Sliced pork 500g 7-8
200 Drumsticks 8 pcs 15
250 Fish (chilled) 10 pcs 7-8 mins

250 Potato 500g 25 mins
200 Beef roast 1kg 60-70 mins
200 Pies/pastry top 4 pcs 8-10 mins
150 Brownies - 18-20 min

The above chart is only a rough guide and based on chilled not frozen food. For
best estimate, follow the cooking time for FAN ASSISTED oven on the food be-
ing cooked as a starting point. The Halogen Oven and Air Fryer will usually be
quicker because it needs little or no heat up time.

HOW TO USE
CLEANING
All the metal accessories eg racks, tongs etc can be put in the dishwasher.
The product does have a wash function, which is good for removing any baked on
stains in the bottom of the bowl.
To use the wash function, allow the unit to go cold. Fill with warm water about a
third of the way up the side of the bowl. Drop the racks etc into the bottom and add
a squirt of washing up liquid.
Fit the motor unit. Set temperature to WASH. Set timer to 20 mins. Press lid down
until it clicks into place. The wash cycle will begin. You can see the air vortex stir the
detergent solution as it works.
The glass bowl can also be washed up in the conventional way or even in a dish-
washer - if you can fit it in!
Take GREAT care when handling the bowl. It is quite heavy and can be slippy when
wet. Try to keep it in the base as much as possible when moving/cleaning. Please
be aware that toughened glass is “stressed”. This means that even small chips in
the edges caused by metal utensils or impacts with tap edges can lead to sudden
breakage - in the same way that car windscreens can break due to stone chips.
The motor unit can be cleaned with soft cloth or kitchen towel moistened with mild
detergent solution. NEVER immerse any part of the motor unit in water or run it un-
der the tap. ALWAYS disconnect from mains supply before cleaning the motor unit.
Don’t use harsh chemical or abrasive cleaners as this can damage the product.
