3. Setup
- Unpacking: Carefully remove the OTG and all accessories from the packaging. Remove any protective films or stickers.
- Placement: Place the OTG on a flat, stable, and heat-resistant surface. Ensure there is adequate clearance (at least 10-15 cm) on all sides and above the oven for proper ventilation. Do not place it near a wall or under cabinets that are susceptible to heat damage.
- Power Connection: Ensure your electrical outlet matches the voltage requirements of the appliance (check the label on the back of the oven). The OTG requires a 16 Ampere socket. Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.
- First Use (Burn-in): Before cooking food, operate the oven empty for approximately 15 minutes at the maximum temperature (230°C) on the 'Bake' function. This will burn off any manufacturing residues and odors. A slight smoke or odor is normal during this initial use. Ensure the area is well-ventilated.

5. Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your OTG.
- Always Unplug: Before cleaning, ensure the oven is unplugged from the power outlet and has completely cooled down.
- Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they may damage the finish.

- Crumb Tray: The removable crumb tray should be cleaned regularly to prevent grease buildup and potential fire hazards. Slide it out, empty crumbs, and wash with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly before replacing.
- Accessories: The cooking tray, grill rack, rotisserie rod set, and handles can be washed with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry completely.

6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Borosil Pro 30 L OTG, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Oven does not turn on. | Not plugged in; power outage; faulty outlet; timer not set. | Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working 16A outlet. Check your home's circuit breaker. Turn the timer knob past 0 to activate. |
| Food not cooking evenly. | Incorrect rack position; oven not pre-heated; too much food; convection fan off. | Use the recommended rack position for your dish. Always pre-heat the oven. Avoid overcrowding. Ensure convection mode is selected for even heat distribution. |
| Excessive smoke during cooking. | Food residue or grease buildup; crumb tray full. | Clean the interior of the oven and all accessories thoroughly. Empty and clean the crumb tray. Ensure fatty foods are placed on a tray to catch drips. |
| Rotisserie not rotating. | Rotisserie function not selected; food too heavy or improperly balanced. | Ensure the function knob is set to the rotisserie mode. Check that the food is securely mounted and balanced on the rotisserie rod. Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity. |
| Temperature seems inaccurate. | Oven not pre-heated long enough; external factors affecting temperature. | Allow sufficient time for pre-heating (10-15 minutes). Avoid opening the door frequently during cooking. |
