The term “wood red” refers to the specic heat performance characteristic of this oven that replicates that of a wood re brick oven. Frozen Bought from the supermarket directly with ingredients on top. New York For a thin (T=1,5 cm) fresh pizza with ingredients of your choice as topping

• For large fresh vegetables, meats or seafood, change the programme to "New York" as they need more cooking time.

• If you are using large frozen vegetables, meat or seafood, change the programme to "Frozen Pizza" as they need much more cooking time. Recipe for "Wood red pizza" We suggest buying from a bakery or supermarket. If not available, below is the recipe for a 25 cm home pizza. Ingredients: Bread our 100g; Sugar 5g; Salt 1g; Yeast 1g; Milk 63g; Butter 5g

• the thickness of the ball by stretching it (better than rolling it).

• When the crust is ready, add a little our to the top of the pizza peel (very useful for transferring the pizza to the stone), then place the crust on the peel. The crust should slide.

• Do not add your favourite topping to the pizza, such as cheese, ham or sauce, until the crust has been placed on the stone.

Pull both ends of the kitchen twine up under the chicken's armpits and then over the wings.

Cross the kitchen twine around the top of the breast, making sure the skin is tight.

Bring the ends of the kitchen twine back to you and run them along the sides of the breast over the wings and thighs.

Cross the ends of the kitchen twine and pull it tightly up and under the crown of the chicken.

Loop the ends of the kitchen twine under the legs and then over the top of the legs. Cross and tighten. The thighs should stick up a little.

• Check and make sure you have selected a function or set the temperature and timer, then press the Start button.

• Check and make sure that the power cord is plugged in, that the power is on and that the socket is working (test the machine on a different socket). Food is undercooked.

• You may have overlled the basket. Place smaller batches of food in the basket for more even cooking.

• Check that the temperature is set correctly.

• Increase the cooking time. Smoke is coming from the appliance when switching it on.

• This is normal when using the appliance for the rst time and is not a cause for concern. Ensure good ventilation.

• If you have used the fryer before, unplug the appliance and allow it to cool. Check and ensure that the interior surfaces and all accessories inside the oven are clean and free of food residue.

• When air frying fatty foods, oil will drip into the pan where it may cause white smoke. This will not affect the appliance or the end result.

• If you have cleaned the appliance properly and it still emits smoke, stop using it and contact our customer service centre. Steam is escaping from door

• Food always contains moisture. Steam is produced during baking and may escape at the top of the oven door during use. This is normal and does not affect the cooking result or the quality of the appliance.

• Defrost food before cooking to reduce moisture content. Food is fried unevenly.

• Try shaking the basket halfway through cooking, but be careful not to burn yourself. The metal parts are very hot when in use.41

Problem Possible cause and solution Home-made chips are fried unevenly.

• You may not be using the right type of potatoes.

• Use fresh potatoes that stay rm during cooking.

• Also make sure that the cut potato sticks are well rinsed and dried before cooking.

• Do not add too much at a time.

• We recommend using 500g at a time with the seasoning on top. Half way through cooking (about 10 minutes), coat the chips from top to bottom with the 2nd layer of seasoning. This will give an even cooking result. The batter is coming off when air-frying.

• Make sure your batter is not too wet.

• Add a dry layer and pat it rmly onto the (battered) pieces of food to ensure it stays on the food during the frying process. The removable tray is warping during cooking.

• Tray warping most commonly occurs in any type of baking when a tray is exposed to rapid changes in temperature.

• It can return to its original shape when it cools. A strange sound occurs during usage

• The interior of the oven is made entirely of metal. This occurs when the oven interior is exposed to rapid changes in temperature. Metal parts are exposed and make noise. This is most common regular case, does not affect the use.

• If the sound is continuous, seems to scratch other thing. Stop the machine and wait for the oven to cool down, then use it again.

• If the problem persists, contact our customer service centre. Circuit breaker or safety switch tripped

• This appliance uses a lot of power when in use, if it is used in conjunction with other kitchen appliances on the same circuit at the same time, it may trip a circuit breaker or safety switch with built-in overload protection.

• Check to see if other appliances (e.g. kettles, toasters, microwaves) are operating at the same time to isolate them from the same circuit, then operate the appliance separately to conrm that the circuit is no longer tripped. Condensation / water / moisture gathers inside the oven door

• This is a natural occurrence, especially when the room temperature is cold. This does not affect the functioning of the appliance and the condensation will disappear once the oven has cooled down.

• Preheat your oven 15 minutes before cooking to reduce condensation.

• If food is placed in the oven to be cooked from a cold start, there is a greater chance of condensation forming before the oven is up to temperature. If an error occurs, contact the Klarstein customer service. Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.42
