3. Inspect the oven for any damage. Do not operate if damaged.

2. Placement

• Place the oven on a stable, heat-resistant, and level 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 directly against a wall or under cabinets.
• Keep the oven away from flammable materials such as curtains, tablecloths, and paper.
• Ensure the power cord is not kinked or trapped.

3. Initial Cleaning and Burn-in

• Before first use, wipe the interior and exterior of the oven with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
• Wash all accessories (baking tray, wire rack, rotisserie set, handles) in warm, soapy water, rinse, and dry completely.
• To eliminate any manufacturing odors, operate the oven empty for approximately 15 minutes at the maximum temperature (250°C) using the 'Top & Bottom heating' function. Ensure the area is well-ventilated during this process. A small amount of smoke or odor is normal during initial use.

Operating Instructions

The Tecno TEO4800 oven features three control knobs for temperature, function, and timer.

Cooking Functions

The oven offers 6 multi-functions:

• Bottom Heating (Bake): Heats from the bottom elements, suitable for baking cakes, pastries, or dishes requiring heat from below.
• Top & Bottom Heating: Standard conventional heating, using both top and bottom elements for even cooking.
• Convection: Utilizes a fan to circulate hot air throughout the oven cavity, ensuring more even and faster cooking.
• Rotisserie: Engages the rotisserie motor to slowly rotate food (e.g., whole chicken) for even roasting.
• Rotisserie with Convection: Combines rotisserie rotation with hot air circulation for enhanced roasting results.
