Using Your Appliance:

the spit on to the spit support, on the opposite inner wall of the oven.

food you want to cook. For example, if you are cooking a roast chicken, you would place the tray on
the lowest slots of oven. If you are cooking a dish and would like the top part browned and cooked

Troubleshooting
Questions Answers
Food is cooking too
slowly, too quickly, or
burning.
The oven temperature may be too low or high.
If food is cooking too quickly, try lowering the shelf. If food is cooking too
slowly, move the shelf up.
Steam is coming
from the oven.
This is a normal occurrence when cooking foods with high water
content.
Take care when opening the oven as steam may escape when you open
the door.
The oven is not
cooking evenly.
Check you are using the correct temperature for the recipe as the
temperature may be too high.
The food/dish may not be placed centrally on the tray.
There is a smell of
burning in the oven.
There may be a build-up of grease in the oven or on the wire rack.
Always wipe down the oven inside after use, once it has cooled
completely. Always wash the wire rack after each use to remove any
grease build-up.
My roast chicken will
not fit neatly on the
rotisserie.
It’s important to truss your chicken so it is compact and fits nicely onto
the spit.
Cleaning & Care
It is important that you clean the appliance after each use to prevent an accumulation of grease and
avoid unpleasant odours.
• Excess grime may also increase the cooking times.
• Allow the appliance to cool and unplug from outlet before cleaning.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or sharp utensils to clean the oven, as scratching may weaken it
and cause shattering.
Inner:
Wipe the inside of the oven with a hot, damp sponge cloth. Dry before next use. A mild spray or
oven cleaner can be used. Apply to the sponge, not the oven.

Door:
Wipe the glass with a hot damp sponge. Clean the glass with a glass cleaner spray if desired. Dry
with a clean towel.

The wire rack, rotisserie fork, rotisserie handle, baking tray and tray handle can all be washed as
normal kitchenware. Let all parts and surfaces dry thoroughly prior to plugging oven in and using.
