Introducing the oven The appliance is intended for use with heat-resistant cookware compatible with a 22.5 cm diameter lid. The oven cooks food by heating the air inside the cooking vessel. The halogen heating element creates intense heat and the fan, mounted in the lid, gently circulates the air. Super-heated air circulates throughout the cooking vessel. The fan constantly moves the air down and then back up, ensuring quick and even cooking. The intensity and the temperature of the airow can vary depending on the selected cooking mode, reaching 250°C. A built-in thermostat monitors and controls the oven temperature switching the heating element on and off when necessary.

I. PRIOR TO THE FIRST USE

Carefully remove the unit and its accessories from the package. Dispose all packing materials properly. Keep all warning labels, stickers (if any), and the serial number identication label located on the housing. The absence of the serial number will deprive you of your warranty benets. Wipe the housing with a damp cloth and let dry. To eliminate any odour during the rst use carry out the self-cleaning procedure. A slight odour during the rst use is not considered a defect. After transportation or storage at low temperatures allow the appliance to stay at room temperature for at least 2 hours before using.10

II. OPERATING THE OVEN

Before Operating Examine inner and outer parts of the oven for cracks, dents, or any other visible damages. Prepare a cooking vessel (not provided). The vessel must be made of heat-re- sistant material and be compatible with the oven glass lid (22.5 cm in diameter) or outer edge of silicone expander-type ring (27 cm). Operation

Place a rack (low or high) into the vessel and place food on the rack. Keep food at least 1.5-2 cm away from the lid and the sides of the vessel to allow maximum hot air circulation.

2. Place the vessel on a at, stable, and heat-resistant surface (such as a

stove top or a hot pad) at least 10 cm away from objects that can be damaged by high temperatures, and put the lid on the vessel. Ensure that the cooking vessel and the oven t tightly. There should be no gaps or openings for steam to escape. For the supplementary surface protection from high temperature use the silicone mat included in set. Fix the silicone expander-type ring to the air grill lid if necessary. Make sure it is rmly xed.

3. Plug in the oven.

4. Firmly put the carrying handle down (when the carrying handle is lifted

during the cooking cycle the oven automatically turns off).

5. Turn the timer control knob clockwise to select the cooking time, the red

indicator light will illuminate, and the fan will start its operation. The cooking time can be adjusted between 5 and 60 minutes.

6. Turn the temperature control knob to select the temperature according

to the recipe directions or to the “Suggested Cooking Time and Tem- perature” section. CAUTION! When using the oven with a multicooker do not exceed the tem- perature of 150°С!

7. The heating indicator will illuminate and the oven will start cooking. The

heating indicator can go out before the selected cooking time expires indi- cating that the oven has reached the selected temperature. When the tem- perature inside the vessel drops below the desired level, the heating indica- tor will automatically illuminate indicating that the oven is heating up again.

8. After the selected time expires give the oven 10 minutes to cool down.

Take the lid off the vessel and place it on a heat resistant surface to cool down completely. ATTENTION! DO NOT put the hot air grill onto the silicone mat.

III. SUGGESTED COOKING TIME AND

TEMPERATURE Food Weight, g Time, hour:min Temperature, °С Chicken 1200 1:30 200 Beef (cut into steaks) 400 0:20 240 Pork 800 1:00 200 Tiger prawns 200 0:10 180 Potatoes (cut into wedges) 400 0:30 190 Actual cooking times will vary from suggested depending on the quality and freshness of food, as well as your personal preferences.

Thaw frozen foods before cooking or add 10-15 minutes per 400 g of frozen food to the suggested cooking time. To ensure thorough cooking and crispy crust turn the food periodically during cooking.

Place the food on the rack to allow hot air to circulate freely and to reduce the cooking time.

Use both racks to cook a complete meal. Keep in mind, that different foods require different cooking times. Place the food that takes longer time to cook on the bottom rack. Later on during the cooking cycle add the second rack.11 RAG-241-E GBR

• When placing several pieces of food on the rack leave minimum 2 cm between the food and the sides of the cooking vessel. This space will allow the air to ow freely. Avoid stacking foods in an attempt to cook more to ensure that hot air circulates freely.

Grill on the top rack, make roasts, and cook larger food items on the bottom rack. Do not put plastics (including microwave plastics) or thin glass tableware inside the cooking vessel. Use metal, ceramic (oven safe), or thick heat-resistant glass tableware instead.
