3. Allow the oven to cool completely before storing or using it for cooking.

Operating Instructions

This oven offers multiple cooking functions to prepare a variety of dishes. Always preheat the oven for optimal results, especially for baking and air frying.

General Operation

1. Place the wire rack or air fry basket in the desired position within the oven.
2. Place food on the appropriate accessory (baking pan, wire rack, or air fry basket).
3. Close the French doors securely.
4. Plug the oven into a standard electrical outlet.

9. Always use oven mitts when removing food or accessories from the hot oven.

Cooking Functions

The oven features five pre-programmed functions: Toast, Bake, Broil, Turbo Convection, and Air Fry.

• Toast: Ideal for bread, bagels, and frozen waffles. Place items directly on the wire rack. Adjust the temperature dial to the toast setting (usually indicated by a toast icon or specific temperature for toasting). Set the timer for desired browning.
• Bake: For cakes, cookies, casseroles, and other baked goods. Use the baking pan on the wire rack. Select the BAKE function, set the desired temperature, and set the timer according to your recipe.
• Broil/Roast: Perfect for meats, poultry, and vegetables that require direct top heat. Place food on the baking pan on the top rack position. Select the BROIL function and set the temperature. Monitor food closely to prevent burning.
• Air Fry: For crispy foods like fries, chicken wings, and vegetables with little to no oil. Use the air fry basket placed on the wire rack. Select the AIR FRY function, set the temperature (typically higher than baking), and set the timer. Shake or flip food halfway through cooking for even crisping.
• Turbo Convection: Utilizes a fan to circulate hot air, resulting in faster and more even cooking. This function can be used with BAKE or ROAST settings. Select the desired cooking function (e.g., BAKE), then select the TURBO CONVECTION option. Adjust temperature and time as needed, often reducing cooking time compared to conventional baking.

Care and Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your oven.

Cleaning Instructions

The non-stick interior coating allows for easy cleaning with a damp cloth.

1. Always unplug the oven from the electrical outlet and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Exterior: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they may scratch the finish.
3. Interior: The non-stick interior can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. For stubborn stains, a non-abrasive sponge can be used. Avoid using metal scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
4. Crumb Tray: Pull out the crumb tray from the bottom front of the oven. Discard crumbs and wash the tray in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly before replacing.
5. Accessories (Baking Pan, Wire Rack, Air Fry Basket): Wash these accessories in warm, soapy water. They are generally not dishwasher safe unless specified. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your oven, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

  • Check if the timer is set. The oven will not operate if the timer is at the "OFF" position.
  • Verify that the function and temperature dials are set correctly.
• Food not cooking evenly:
  • Preheat the oven for at least 5-10 minutes before placing food inside.
  • Ensure food is placed in the center of the rack and not overcrowded.

  • Consider using the Turbo Convection function for more even heat distribution.
