Accessories
(See fold-out page at the back for illustrations)
Fat Collecting Tray / Baking Tray
The fat collecting tray (8) should always be inserted so that any dripping fat, crumbs or other food residues can be collected in it. It is slid right into the bottom of the cooking space (16).
The fat collecting tray can also be used as a baking tray. It has food placed on it and is pushed onto the middle rails (14).
Baking Racks
The baking racks (9) are intended for drying. However, they can also be used for crisp-ing, warming up etc.
The baking racks are slid onto the rails (14) in the cooking space (16) (see Illustration A). The heating element (18) is located at the top of the cooking space, i.e. the higher up a baking rack is placed, the more intense the heat is from above.
In the top section, the food is cooked faster and crispier. The middle position should be chosen to achieve even heating from all sides. The bottom rails are suitable for gentle cooking.
Skewers with Rack
Pieces of meat, fish, vegetables etc. are placed on the skewers (7) as you wish and grilled in the device. The skewers can either be placed on the baking racks (9) or inserted into the associated rack. In the rack, they are turned during grilling.
Assemble the rack for skewers and insert into the device:
PLEASE NOTE!
The shaft contains two small round notches. They mark the outermost position of the locking screws. These must not be attached any further than the outer ends of the shaft to ensure that smooth operation is possible.
- Be careful when handling the skewers in order to prevent any injuries!
-
Slide the rack wheel (6) with the L marking onto the left-hand end of the shaft with just one notch (see Illustration B1). The locking screw of the rack wheel is directed outwards.
-
Fix the rack wheel gently with the locking screw. The shaft contains a small round notch for the tip of the locking screw. Do not tighten it too much so that the rack wheel can be moved if necessary after attaching the skewers.
-
Mount the second rack wheel on the shaft in the same way (see Illustration B1).
-
Place the tip of a skewer with food on it through the round hole in the left-hand rack wheel (see Illustration B2).
-
Press together the other end (the clip) of the skewer slightly, slide it into the opposite notch in the right-hand rack wheel and allow it to engage (see Illustration B2).
-
Fit the rest of the skewers in the same way (see Illustration B2). IMPORTANT: If not all 10 skewers are used, they must be distributed evenly (always two opposite) so that the rack can rotate.
29
EN
- Tighten the locking screws of the rack wheels.
- Plug the left-hand end of the shaft as far as it will go into the round holder on the left-hand side of the cooking space (16) (see Illustration B3). Then hang the other end of the shaft into the support on the right-hand side of the cooking space (see Illustration B4).
- Check that it fits securely. The rack must not be able to rotate about its own axis when the device is switched off. If this is not the case, plug the left-hand end of the shaft deeper into the holder.
After use, remove the hot rack from the cooking space using the removal tool (5) (see the "Removal Tool" section).
To remove the skewers from the rack, press together the clips. It is essential that you use oven gloves to do this!
Rotating Spit
The rotating spit consists of the shaft (4) and two rotating spit forks (3). The rotating spit is suitable for grilling large pieces of meat, e.g. chicken, grilled or roast pork.
Assemble the rotating spit and insert it into the device:
PLEASE NOTE!
The shaft contains two small round notches. They mark the outermost position of the locking screws. These must not be attached any further than the outer ends of the shaft to ensure that smooth operation is possible.
Do not place any pieces that are too large onto the rotating spit so that it can rotate without any hindrance.
- Slide one of the rotating spit forks onto the shaft and lock it with the locking screw. The shaft contains a small round notch for the tip of the locking screw. In the case of smaller pieces of food, the rotating spit forks can be secured more centrally on the shaft.
- Slide the items you want to grill onto the rotating spit.
- Slide the other rotating spit fork onto the shaft and lock it with the locking screw.
- Plug the left-hand end of the shaft with just one notch (see Illustration C1) as far as it will go into the round holder on the left-hand side of the cooking space (16). Then hang the other end of the shaft into the support on the right-hand side of the cooking space.
- Check that it fits securely. The rotating spit must not be able to rotate about its own axis when the device is switched off. If this is not the case, plug the left-hand end of the shaft deeper into the holder.
After use, remove the hot rotating spit from the cooking space using the removal tool (5) (see the "Removal Tool" section). Always use oven gloves to remove the rotating spit forks and take off the grilled items.
Rotating Basket
In the rotating basket (2), the food is rotated during cooking so that it becomes crispy on all sides. The rotating basket is particularly suitable for preparing chips or other potato products, small pieces of vegetables and meat as well as frozen products, e.g. chicken nuggets or squid rings.
EN 30
Fill the rotating basket and insert it into the device:
- Open the flap of the rotating basket (see Illustration D).
- Fill the rotating basket no more than 34 full with food. It should not be too full to ensure that the food is cooked evenly.
-
Close the flap and ensure that it is shut correctly so that it does not open during use.
-
First insert the left-hand side with the L marking of the rotating basket into the cooking space (16) (see Illustration C1). To do this, plug the left end (with just one notch) of the shaft as far as it will go into the round holder on the left-hand side of the cooking space. Then hang the other end (with two notches) of the shaft into the support on the right-hand side of the cooking space.
-
Check that it fits securely. The rotating basket must not be able to rotate about its own axis when the device is switched off. If this is not the case, plug the left-hand end of the shaft deeper into the holder.
After use, remove the hot rotating basket from the cooking space using the removal tool (see the "Removal Tool" section). Always use oven gloves to open and empty the rotating basket.
The hot rotating basket, rotating spit or the hot rack containing skewers is taken out of the cooking space using the removal tool (5).
- Place the ends of the removal tool under the shaft (see Illustration E).
- First lift up the right-hand side of the shaft and move it forwards a little until the left end of the shaft is released from the holder.
- Carefully lift the rotating basket, rotating spit or the rack out of the cooking space (16) and place down on a heat-resistant surface.

- Remove the mains plug from the plug socket after use.
- Allow the used accessories and device to cool down and then clean them (see the "Cleaning" chapter).
Tips
- Generally it is not necessary to preheat the device. When preparing food which is to be ready "on the dot", it is advisable to extend the cooking time by 3 minutes.
- Cooking times are dependent on the size and quantity of the food and on the cooking temperature. However, in general the cooking times are shorter than in a conventional oven. Start with shorter cooking times and then adapt the cooking times to your personal taste.
• Generally no oil is required for preparing food. You can add oil to your food to enhance the taste by spraying your food with a little oil from the oil atomiser.
- When preparing mass-produced frozen products, you should follow the times and temperatures specified by the manufacturer. Before the specified cooking time elapses, check whether the food is already cooked through because the cooking time can be slightly shorter than in a conventional oven.

Suggested Recipes
PLEASE NOTE!
Before you start preparing any food, it is essential to read the “Accessories” and “Basic Use of the Device” chapters to familiarise yourself with the way that the device works. This knowledge will then enable you to prepare lots of different dishes following any recipes you want.
The temperatures and cooking times specified in the following suggested recipes are guideline figures. As the ingredients differ due to their origin, size, shape and quality, the settings actually required may vary. It is important to check how the food is cooking from time to time and adjust the temperature or cooking time. Make sure before serving that meat and poultry are thoroughly cooked.
Shashlik, Russian style
Resting time: approx. 1 day
Ingredients:
1 kg Pork neck or lamb
1 Large onion
12 tsp. Sugar
1 tbsp. Vinegar
1 tbsp. Oil
2 tbsp. Strained tomato(es)
2 Bay leaves
To taste Salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper
Preparation:
- Cut the meat into cubes roughly 2 x 2 cm in size.
- With the exception of the onion, mix together the rest of the ingredients to make a marinade and mix with the meat.
- Allow it to rest in the fridge for at least six hours, ideally overnight. Stir it around a few times.
- Chop the onion into rings.
- Slide the marinated meat and the onion rings onto the skewers.
- Fit the skewers in the rack and insert it into the cooking space.
- Start the "leaks/cutlets" programme.
- Press the button to activate the rotating function.
- Check how cooked the food is in between times. Adjust the cooking temperature and cooking time if necessary.
Homemade Chips
Ingredients:
4 large Potatoes (waxy)
1 – 2 tbsp. Cooking oil
To taste Salt
Preparation:
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks of equal size.
- Thoroughly wash the potatoes and then dry them off.
- Add 1 – 2 tbsp. of oil to the potatoes and mix in. It is not essential to add oil. However, adding oil will make the chips crispier and give them a more intense flavour.
-
Place the sliced potato chips into the rotating basket.
-
Insert the rotating basket into the cooking space.
-
Start the Chips" programme.
-
Press the button to activate the rotating function.
-
The chips are cooked when they are golden brown. Reduce the temperature if necessary if the chips start to get too dark. If they are not cooked after the end of the programme, extend the cooking time and adjust the temperature if necessary.
- Mix your favourite herbs and spices into the oil before adding it. This will allow you for example to prepare tasty curry or paprika-flavoured chips. There are no limits to your imagination.
- Depending on how thick you cut your potatoes, you can vary between potato wedges and thick or thin chips. The thicker the potatoes are cut, the longer the cooking time.
- Use waxy potatoes. Young potatoes contain more water and therefore take longer to cook and it is possible that they may not go as crispy.
- Wash the chopped-up potatoes with cold, clear water to remove any excess starch in the potatoes. IMPORTANT: Then thoroughly dry the potatoes. The less moisture is present, the crispier the chips will become.
- Preboiled potatoes will cook more evenly! Cut the potatoes into small sticks and preboil them for around five minutes. This will prevent the chips from being crispy on the outside but not fully cooked on the inside.
- If you want to prepare frozen chips, there is no need to add any oil as most frozen products are generally pre-fried! If you are going to prepare frozen chips or other frozen convenience products, follow the manufacturer's specifications on the packaging.
