RECOMMENDS

SAFETY FIRST

At Breville we are very safety
conscious. We design and
manufacture consumer
products with the safety of you,
our valued customer, foremost
in mind. In addition we ask
that you exercise a degree of
care when using any electrical
appliance and adhere to the
following precautions.

IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USE AND SAVE
FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

When using electrical appliances,
basic safety precautions should
always be followed including:

• Remove and safely discard any
packing materials and
promotional labels before
using the oven for the first time.

• To avoid choking hazard for
young children, remove and
safely dispose the protective
cover fitted on the power plug.

• Do not use the appliance near
the edge of a bench top or table.
Ensure the surface is stable,
level, heat-resistant and clean.

2

• Do not use on a cloth-covered
surface, near curtains or other
flammable materials.

• A fire may occur if the oven is
covered or touches flammable
material, including curtains,
draperies, walls, and the like,
when in operation.

• Do not use the appliance on
(or close to) a hot gas or electric
burner, or where it could touch
a heated oven or surface.

• Do not let the power cord hang
over the edge of a table or
counter, or touch hot surfaces.

• To avoid electric shock, do not
immerse the cord or plug in
water (or other liquids).

• When operating the oven, keep
a minimum distance of 10cm
of space on both sides of the
appliance and 15cm above.

• The temperature of accessible
surfaces may be high when
the appliance is operating.
Do not touch hot surfaces.
To avoid burns, use extreme
caution when removing pans,
dishes and accessories such as

ELEMENT IQ

TM

The Breville Smart OvenTM Air Fry features
Element IQ

TM

, a cooking technology that
creates the ideal environment for the food
you're cooking. It steers power where and when
it's needed and creates the right kind of heat,
whether even or intense.

Each of the oven’s functions is preset with our
recommended heating element configurations
and temperatures, that are based on recipes and
testing. However, we suggest experimenting
with these depending on the recipe, amount
of food and your personal taste.

Your customised setting will remain in the
memory of the oven until changed or the oven
is unplugged from the power outlet.

TIPS

TIPS FOR SLOW COOKING

1. Ensure cookware is oven-proof and does not
exceed 6 kgs when empty.

2. Fill cookware to a minimum of ½ and
maximum of ¾ full to avoid over or
under-cooking. To prevent spillover,
do not fill cookware more than ¾ full.

3. Always slow cook with the lid on to prevent
food from drying out. Cover cookware with
a layer of aluminum foil before covering
with lid to keep even more moisture in.

4. Follow cooking temperatures and times
prescribed in traditional slow cooker
recipes. One hour on ‘HI’ is equivalent to
approximately one-and-a-half to two hours
on ‘LO’.

5. Cold food will take longer to cook than food
that has been pre-seared or heated so adjust
cooking times as appropriate. Do not slow
cook frozen foods.

6. Cut large pieces of meat in half to allow heat
to penetrate more evenly.

REPLACING THE OVEN LIGHT

WARNING

Always unplug oven and let cool before
replacing bulb. Only use a 25-Watt,
220-240V, G9 type oven bulb.

1. Remove the wire rack from the oven before
replacing the light.

2. The light is positioned on the lefthand side
of the oven cavity. Position your fingers on
the outside of the light housing and gently
pull the glass cover away from the oven wall
to remove it. If you are unable to pull the
cover off, slide a spoon into the left side of
the light housing and gently lever the glass
cover off. Always hold the glass cover with
the other hand to prevent the cover from
falling and breaking.

5. To reattach the glass cover, align the metal
hook with the left side of the light housing.
Slide the opposite end of the glass cover

Care & Cleaning

Before cleaning, ensure the oven is turned
off by removing the power plug from the power
outlet. Allow the oven and all accessories to cool
completely before disassembling and cleaning.

Cleaning the outer body and door

1. Wipe the outer body with a soft, damp
sponge. A non-abrasive liquid cleanser or
mild spray solution may be used to avoid
build-up of stains. Apply the cleanser to
the sponge, not the oven surface, before
cleaning.

2. To clean the glass door, use a glass cleaner
or mild detergent and a soft, damp sponge
or soft plastic scouring pad. Do not use an
abrasive cleanser or metal scouring pad as
these will scratch the oven surface.

3. Wipe the LCD screen with a soft damp cloth.
Apply cleanser to the cloth and not the LCD
surface. Cleaning with dry cloth or abrasive
cleaners may scratch the surface.

4. Let all surfaces dry thoroughly prior to
inserting the power plug into a power outlet
and turning the oven on.

WARNING

Do not immerse the body, power cord or power
plug in water or any other liquid as this may
cause electrocution.

Cleaning the interior

The walls on the inside of the oven feature a
non-stick coating for easy cleaning. To clean
any splattering that may occur while cooking,
wipe the walls with a soft, damp sponge. A non­abrasive liquid cleanser or mild spray solution
may be used to avoid build-up of stains. Apply
the cleanser to the sponge, not the oven surface,
before cleaning. Avoid touching the quartz
heating elements.

WARNING

Use extreme caution when cleaning the
quartz heating elements. Allow the oven to
cool completely, then gently rub a soft, damp

sponge or cloth along the length of the heating
element. Do not use any type of cleanser or
cleaning agent. Let all surfaces dry thoroughly
prior to inserting the power plug into a power
outlet and turning the oven on.

Cleaning the crumb tray

1. After each use, slide out the crumb tray
and discard crumbs. Wipe the tray with a
soft, damp sponge. A non-abrasive liquid
cleanser may be used to avoid build-up of
stains. Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not
the tray, before cleaning. Dry thoroughly.

2. To remove baked-on grease, soak the tray
in warm soapy water then wash with a soft
sponge or soft plastic scouring pad. Rinse
and dry thoroughly.

3. Always reinsert the crumb tray into the
oven after cleaning and prior to inserting
the power plug into a power outlet and
turning the oven on.

Cleaning the wire rack, grilling rack,
roasting pan and pizza pan

1. Wash all accessories in warm soapy water
with a soft sponge or soft plastic scouring
pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use
abrasive cleansers, metal scouring pads
or metal utensils to clean any of
the accessories as they may damage
the surfaces.

2. To extend the life of your accessories,
we do not recommend that these be placed
in the dishwasher.

Storage

1. Ensure the oven is turned off by removing
the power plug from the power outlet.

2. Allow the oven and all accessories to
cool completely before disassembling
and cleaning.

3. Ensure the oven and all accessories are
clean and dry.

4. Ensure the crumb tray is inserted into the
oven; the broiling rack is inserted into the
roasting pan and resting on the wire rack in
the middle rack height position.

5. Ensure the door is closed.

6. Store the appliance in an upright position
standing level on its support legs. Do not
store anything on top. The only exception is
the optional Breville Bamboo Cutting Board
and Serving Tray.

Troubleshooting

POSSIBLE PROBLEM EASY SOLUTION

Oven will not switch "ON"• Check that the power plug is securely inserted into the outlet.

Insert the power plug into an independent outlet.

•

Insert the power plug into a different outlet.

•

Reset the circuit breaker if necessary.

•

The LCD display
light has gone out

The oven goes into standby mode if not used for 10 minutes. When in

•

standby mode, the LCD screen will cease to illuminate, however all function
options will still be visible.

To re-activate the oven out of standby mode, press the START/CANCEL

•

button on the control panel, or turn any dial. The LCD screen will
re-illuminate.

The pizza does not
cook evenly

The Magnetic Auto-Rack
Eject comes out too far
when I open the door

I cannot select the
FROZEN FOODS button

Steam is coming out
from the oven door

The heating elements
appear to be pulsing

Water is dripping onto
counter from under door

The temperature reading
on the LCD screen doesn't
match the temperature
measured inside the oven

Some large pizzas may brown unevenly in compact ovens. Open the oven

•

door half way through the cooking time and turn the pizza 180 degrees for
more even darkness.

Always open the door slowly and in a controlled manner when the wire rack

•

is inserted into the middle rack height position to prevent the wire rack
from ejecting too quickly.

The FROZEN button is only selectable for the following functions: TOAST,

•

CRUMPET, BAKE, PIZZA, AIR FRY. When selecting the FROZEN button,
this will automatically adjust the cooking time for an optimised food result.

This is normal. The door is vented to release steam created from high

•

moisture content foods such as frozen breads. Be mindful that the steam
can be hot.

Element IQTM accurately controls the heat inside the oven by pulsing the

•

power and adjusting the power level in the heating elements in short bursts
to give accurate temperature control. This is normal.

This is normal. The condensation created from high moisture content foods

•

such as frozen breads will run down the inside of the door and can drip onto
the counter.

To ensure the measurements are standardized, the oven temperatures

•

have been calibrated in the TOAST position (center of the middle rack
with no tray in place). Re-check the temperature in this position, ensuring
not to open the oven door for 30 minutes as heat will escape each time
the door is opened. Note that the ‘preheat’ alert sounds at 75% of the target
temperature.

22

POSSIBLE PROBLEM EASY SOLUTION

The ‘preheat’ alert sounds
at a lower temperature
than what is displayed
on the LCD screen

The LCD screen
displays 'E01'

The LCD screen
displays 'E02'

The LCD screen
displays 'E03'

The LCD screen
displays 'E05'

The ‘preheat’ alert sounds at 75% of the target temperature. This provides

•

the fastest, combined preheating and cooking time.
This is because when the ‘preheating’ alert sounds, signaling the user to

•

open the oven door and insert food, there is dramatic temperature loss
inside the oven. If the alert sounded at 100% of the target temperature,
opening the door would mean a lot of this waiting time is "wasted". We
have calculated that by sounding the alert at 75% of the target temperature,
followed by the oven door being opened to place food inside the oven, that
we still recover to the target temperature up to 2 minutes faster. This is why
the temperature on the LCD screen does not match the target temperature
at the ‘preheat’ alert. Depending on the set temperature, it can take the oven
approximately 8–10 minutes from start-up, including opening the oven
door when the ‘preheat’ alert sounds, to reach the target temperature.

The LCD screen will display 'E01' when there is a non-resettable issue with

•

the appliance. Should this occur, immediately remove the power cord from
the power outlet and call Breville Consumer Support.

The LCD screen will display 'E02' when there is a non-resettable issue with

•

the appliance. Should this occur, immediately remove the power cord from
the power outlet and call Breville Consumer Support.

The LCD screen will display 'E03' if the oven temperature is above the set

•

maximum limit. Remove the plug from the power outlet, allow the oven to
cool for 15 minutes, then plug back in.

Call Breville Consumer Support if the 'E03' message continues.

•

The LCD screen will display 'E05' when there is a non-resettable issue with

•

the appliance. Should this occur, immediately remove the power cord from
the power outlet and call Breville Consumer Support.

Temperature are changing
when convection
button is pressed

This is normal. The temperature is calibrated to compensate for the

•

convection fan increasing cooking rates.
