GENERAL INFORMATION

Use and Storage of the User Manual

Inside this user manual you will find information on how to properly use and maintain
your Glass Bowl Convection Oven, including but not limited to, safety instructions and
precautions, assembly and use instructions, frequently asked questions, and warranty
conditions. Please store this user manual in an easily-accessible location for future
reference.

Intended Use

Your Glass Bowl Convection Oven has been designed for food preparation as described
in this user manual. DO NOT use this appliance for any other purpose. This product is
intended for household use only.

Convection cooking combines hot air movement by means of a fan. In many cases,
convection cooking provides significantly faster cooking versus conventional radiant
ovens. The fan gently circulates air to every part of the food, quickly browning, crisping
and sealing in moisture and flavor, producing an even temperature all around the food to
cooks food more evenly versus conventional ovens that create hot and cold spots.

PRODUCT SAFETY

3-Prong Plug

Your Glass Bowl Convection Oven is equipped with a
power supply cord that has a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. In the event of an electrical short
circuit, the grounding plug reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the electric
current.

plug must be plugged into an electrical outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

The
Your Glass Bowl Convection Oven requires a standard 120 Volt, 60 Hz electrical outlet
with a 3-prong ground receptacle. DO NOT attempt to modify the plug in any way. If the
plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm, DO NOT use that outlet.
Improper use of the grounding plug and/or outlet can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood.

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord is not recommended for use with this
product, but if necessary, the marked electrical rating must be equal to or greater than the
electrical rating of this product. DO NOT alter the plug of the appliance or any extension
cord used with this appliance. Arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be tripped over or pulled.

All recommended cooking times are approximate. Times may vary depending on the type
of cooking, temperature selected and your individual preferences. Always ensure food is
fully cooked inside before serving. When cooking meats, always check the internal
temperatures with a meat thermometer.

USE

Cooking with the Extender Ring

If you need to cook something of a larger size such as a whole chicken, turkey, stuffed
turkey, etc., you can place the extender ring on top of the bowl. The extender ring
increases the size of the bowl, giving you the extra capacity you need for cooking.

Thawing Food

once during the thawing process. Any liquids or juices from thawed foods should be
thoroughly cleaned from the bowl before cooking.

Frozen Food

Large items like meat joints or poultry cannot be cooked from frozen and must be
thawed thoroughly first. However, some foods cook best from frozen. Simply follow the
cooking instructions on the packaging as a guideline. It is often the case that cooking time
is shorter in the convection oven as it is more efficient than a conventional oven.

You can toast almost anything in the convection oven: bread, bagels, pizza, crumpets, and
more. For best results, use the high rack and set the

USE

Baking and Steaming

The temperature for cooking uncovered dishes is usually 70°F - 100°F lower than in a
traditional oven. No preheating is necessary in the convection oven before baking.
Ordinarily, the center of the cake batter will be moist, while the sections closest to the
rim of the baking pan will be finished first. For this reason, a bunt cake pan or tube pan is
better to use than the larger layered cake pans.

Bread Rolls

To reheat fresh bread rolls, wrap each roll in foil, place on the low rack and heat at 400°F
for 5 - 7 minutes. If the rolls are a few days old, they can be refreshed by brushing them
with a little milk, placing them on the high rack and heating for 6 - 9 minutes at 350°F.

Pies

Place precooked (unfrozen) pies on the high rack and cook for approximately 8 - 12
minutes at 430°F. Frozen or uncooked pies use the same position and temperature but
require a longer cooking time (20 - 25 minutes). Cooking time may vary depending on the
size and content of the pie.

Broiling

For broiling with a convection oven, the
between 430°F - 480°F. DO NOT cover the food while cooking. Use the high rack to bring
food closer to the heat source for additional crispness and browning of food. Add
hickory liquid smoke or mesquite to achieve a smoky flavor. Any seasonings should be
applied to the surface of the meat. If the fish or meat is lean, spray the rack with non­stick vegetable oil or brush with cooking oil prior to arranging the fish or meat on the rack
to avoid food sticking to the rack. For browner or more seared surfaces, broil on both
sides as with thick steaks. For thinner pieces, turning is not necessary.

Temperature Control Knob

should be set

Roasting

To let hot air circulate freely, use the low rack. The propelled hot air cooks meat evenly
and seals in the juice. Turning and basting is not necessary. A meat thermometer is
recommended however without one, use the table provided in this manual or follow the
chart given for conventional or regular ovens and subtract 75°F.

14

USE

Roast Whole Chicken

Rinse the chicken thoroughly and add desired seasonings. Spices such as garlic, black
pepper and salt are suggested. Before roasting, allow seasonings to penetrate for a few
hours. The base of the bowl can be lined with aluminum foil to catch any drippings. Roast
for approximately 30 minutes per 2.2 lbs. at 400°F.

Whole Roasts

With the fatty portion facing upward, place meat directly on the low rack and season to
taste. The temperature for roasting is usually 75°F less than regular or conventional
roasting. Cooking time depends on the type and size of the roast. Using a meat
thermometer is recommended.

Cakes

When selecting an appropriate cake tin to use, ensure that it will fit comfortably in the
bowl. Always place the cake tin on the low rack and never directly onto the bottom of
the bowl. When using recipes from elsewhere, deduct 50°F from the recommended
cooking temperature. Cooking time depends entirely upon the size of the cake you are
making but it is easy to monitor its progress with the see-through glass bowl.

Biscuits and Pastries

You may use your personal frying pan however ensure that is it safe to use in a
convection oven like this. Lightly grease the pan and place it on the low rack. The best
temperature for biscuits and pastries is between 430°F - 445°F. Cooking times vary but are
generally 12 - 15 minutes for biscuits.

Eggs

Hard or soft-boiled eggs are simple to cook in the convection oven. For starters, there is
no boiling involved. Place up to 6 eggs into the pan and place the pan on the high rack.
