6. Cooking Guide

Achieve optimal results by understanding rack positions and general cooking guidelines.

Rack Positions

The oven features a 2-position rack for versatile cooking. Use the lower position for larger items like roasts or whole chickens, and the upper position for items requiring closer proximity to the heating elements, such as toast or for crisping.

General Cooking Tips

• Preheating: For best results, preheat the oven for 5-10 minutes before adding food, especially for baking and air frying.
• Even Cooking: For air frying, shake the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure even crisping. For baking or roasting, rotate the pan if necessary.
• Oil Usage: When air frying, a small amount of oil (1-2 tablespoons) can enhance crispiness, but it is often not required.
• Capacity: The 22-liter capacity can accommodate a 12-inch pizza or multiple servings of other dishes.
