4. Setup

Before first use, follow these steps to prepare your appliance:

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the appliance and all accessories from the packaging. Retain packaging for future storage or transport.
2. Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the appliance with a damp cloth. Wash all removable accessories (baskets, trays, rotisserie parts) with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before reassembling.
3. Placement: Place the main unit on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface. Ensure there is at least 10-15 cm (4-6 inches) of clear space around the back and sides of the appliance for proper ventilation. Do not place it directly against a wall or under cabinets.
4. First Use Burn-Off: It is recommended to run the appliance empty for about 10-15 minutes at 180°C (350°F) before cooking food for the first time. This helps to burn off any manufacturing residues and odors. A slight odor or smoke may be present during this process; this is normal. Ensure the area is well-ventilated.
