Using the racks and other cooking vessels

• Food can be placed directly onto the grill rack and the baking tray
supplied.

• If placing food directly onto the grill rack, fit the baking tray into the
lower oven rack rest to act as a drip / crumb tray (fig 2 & 11).

• Always use the handle supplied when fitting or removing the rack /
tray from the oven. See figs 3 & 4 below on how to fit the handle.

Fig. 3 Fig. 4

• If using another cooking vessel

➢ Always place the container onto the grill rack.
➢ Ensure that it will fit into the oven cavity without touching the sides

of the oven or the heating elements.

➢ Ensure that the vessel is suitable for this type of oven e.g. Ferrite

materials such as enamel, cast or stainless steel and heat resistant
glass. Do not use copper, aluminium, paper or plastic
containers.

Issue 2 26/07/2021 10

Assembling and fitting the rotisserie spit

•

• Fit the claws onto the rotisserie spit with the claws facing inwards

(figs. 5 & 6).

• Fit the thumb screws into the holes in the claws and turn until secure
(fig. 6).

• Note that the spit has different shaped ends – see end ‘A’ and end ‘B’
in the diagram above. End A is fitted first into the socket on the right
hand side of the oven before fitting end B into the bracket on the left
hand side of the oven (fig .7).

• Always use the rotisserie handle to remove the spit from the oven
when hot. Place the hooked ends of the rotisserie handle under the
spit and into the notches (figs 8 & 9) and lift out.

Basic oven operation

The oven can be used in a similar manner to a conventional electric oven
to bake, roast and grill food.

1. Place the oven on a stable, flat, heat resistant surface and away from

any flammable materials.

2. Fit the crumb tray into the base of the oven.

3. Check that the TIMER knob is in the ‘OFF’ position.

4. Fully unwind the cable, plug in and switch on at the mains (no indicator

should be lit). For safety do not allow the cable to dangle over the
edge of units.

5. Turn the TEMPERATURE control knob and select the desired cooking

temperature (100 - 220°C).

6. Turn the FUNCTION control knob and select the desired cooking

method.

7. Turn the TIMER control knob, select the cooking time required and the

oven light and power indicator will illuminate to show that the cooker is
now operational.

8. Open the oven door (Fig. 10 & 11) and place the food into the oven

using the grill rack and / or baking tray.

Fig. 10 Fig. 11

9. If baking or roasting, close

the oven door.

Basic Oven operation (continued)

11. If the timer has been selected – when the cooking time has finished,

a bell will sound and the oven will turn off automatically.

12. If ‘stay on’ has been selected – it will be necessary to turn off the

oven after use.

13. The oven can be stopped at any time by turning the TIMER control

knob to the ‘OFF’ position or by switching off at the mains

Notes:

• When the oven is in use the top of the oven can be used to warm

plates.

• When not in use, always ensure that the timer is set to ‘OFF.’

Tips for successful cooking

• Follow cooking instructions on food packaging.

• For more accurate timing, preheat the oven for a few minutes before

placing food into the cavity for cooking.

• Turn or stir food some foods halfway through cooking process.

• Distribute food evenly across the grill rack and baking tray.

• The cooking time will vary according to the shape, thickness and

composition of the food.

• Smaller pieces will cook quicker than larger pieces. For best results,

ensure pieces of food are similar in size and thickness.

Rotisserie operation

1. Place the oven on a stable, flat, heat resistant surface and away from
any flammable materials. Check that the TIMER knob is in the OFF
position.

2. Fully unwind the cable, plug in and switch on at the mains (no
indicator should be lit). For safety, do not allow the cable to dangle
over the edge of units.

3. Fit the baking tray into the lowest slot (not the base) of the oven so it
can act as a drip tray or use to roast your vegetables at the same
time.

4. Make a hole through the centre of the joint or chicken and insert the
rotisserie spit.

Fig. 13

5. Fit the claws onto the spit and ensure the spikes enter the joint /
chicken. Secure the claws into position using the thumbscrews as
these will ensure the joint rotates when the spit turns.

6. Insert the rotisserie spit and joint into the oven cavity and ensure that
there is sufficient clearance for the food to rotate without touching the
heating elements.

7. Close the oven door.

8. Turn the TEMPERATURE control knob and select temperature
220°C.

9. Turn the FUNCTION control knob and select the desired rotisserie
option – see section oven function (page 6).

and the oven light and indicator will illuminate to show that the cooker
is now operational and the rotisserie spit will start to turn.

11. If the timer has been selected – when the cooking time has finished,
a bell will sound and the oven will turn off automatically.

12. If ‘stay on’ has been selected – it will be necessary to turn off the
oven after use.

13. The oven can be stopped at any time by turning the TIMER control
knob to ‘OFF’ or by switching off at the mains.

14. Using the rotisserie spit handle lift out the roast.

Issue 2 26/07/2021 14

Rotisserie operation (continued)

Notes:

• The maximum weight of food that can be roasted using the rotisserie
spit is 4.5kg

• The baking tray can be used to roast vegetables at the same time as
acting as a drip tray.

• When not in use, always ensure that the timer is set to ‘OFF.’

Cleaning the oven

Clean the oven, rotisserie spit, grill rack, baking and crumb tray after each
use.

1. Switch off and unplug the oven and allow it and the accessories to

cool completely. Cleaning the oven whilst hot may cause the glass
door to shatter and risk personal injury.

surfaces with a soft dry cloth.

3. Wipe internal oven surfaces with a soft damp cloth soaked in soapy

water. Rinse and dry surfaces with a soft dry cloth.

scratch the surface which may result in the glass door shattering. Do
not immerse in water. Do not use a steam cleaner.

5. Slide and lift out the crumb tray from the bottom of the oven.

6. Wash loose parts (crumb tray, grill rack, baking tray and baking tray

handle, rotisserie spit and handle) in hot water with a little washing up
