  • Remove and discard all packaging material, labels, and tape from the oven.

  • tray with hot water, dishwashing liquid, and a non-abrasive sponge. Dry all parts before use.
  • Wipe the inside and outside of the oven with a moist cloth.
  • Cord and Plug Safety
  • A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risk of becoming
  • entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
  • Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.
  • If an extension cord is used:
  • The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at
  • least equal to the electrical rating of the appliance.
  • The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over
  • the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over. Electrical Polarized Plug This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, the plug is intended to be used by inserting it into the electrical outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit securely into the outlet, reverse the plug and re-insert. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician for assistance. Do not modify the plug in any way.

    Warning:

    DO NOT place the oven against a wall or against other appliances. Leave at least 4 inches of free space on the back and sides, and 4 inches of free space above the oven. To avoid the risk of fire: DO NOT place anything on top of the oven. NEVER cover the crumb tray or the oven walls with aluminum foil or parchment paper. You may use foil or parchment paper as a liner on the baking pan, however: • Cut the liner so it is fitted to the exact size of the baking pan and is not raised above or hanging below the pan, to ensure the liner is not close to the heating elements. • NEVER leave the liner on the baking pan during preheating and cooking, unless there is food on the liner to weigh it down and keep it safely secured in place. When cooking greasy or drippy foods, use the baking pan instead of the air fry basket. ALWAYS use CAUTION when opening the doors; hot steam may escape! The oven, accessories and food will be hot! DO NOT touch hot surfaces. Use oven mitts when inserting or removing food from the oven. Using Oil When spraying food for a crispier finish, we recommend using cooking oil instead of cooking spray, as the latter may damage the accessories and reduce the life of the appliance. The oven may produce smoke if you use oil and cook food at a hotter setting than what is recommended. NEVER spray the heating elements or oven walls with oil.

  • Internal food temperature continues to rise as food rests. This is known as “carry-over cooking,”
  • which occurs when food rests for at least five minutes after being removed from the heat. How To Place The Probe • Insert the probe horizontally into the thickest part of the food. NOTE: The thickest part of the food may not be the center. It is important that the probe’s end be positioned properly for the desired result. • Ensure the top of the probe is inserted straight into the center of the food, not angled toward the bottom or top of it. • The probe should be close to (but not touching) the bone and should be away from any fat or gristle. • DO NOT use the probe for frozen proteins or for cuts of meat 1 inch thick or thinner.
