Read the instructions, keep them safe, pass them on if you pass the appliance on.
A
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Follow basic safety precautions, including:
1 This appliance must only be used by or under the supervision of a responsible adult. Use and
store it out of reach of children.
2 Don’t put the heater in liquid, don’t use it in a bathroom, near water, or outdoors.
3 Put the stand on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface, at least 75cm (30”) above floor
level, and leave 50mm (2”) of clear space all round.
4 Food, fat, and oil, when heated, may burn. Don’t position the oven near or below cupboards,
curtains, or combustible materials.
5 Some parts aren’t as hot as others, but they’re all hot. Don’t touch – use oven gloves.
6 Cook meat, poultry, and derivatives (mince, burgers, etc.) till the juices run clear. Cook fish till
the flesh is opaque throughout.
7 Don’t put cold water into the bowl when it’s hot – the thermal shock might break it.
8 Route the cable so it doesn’t overhang, and can’t be tripped over or caught.
9 Don’t fit an attachment or accessory other than those we supply.
10 Unplug the oven when not in use, before moving and before cleaning.
11 Don’t turn the timer back towards 0 – you’ll break it. If you want to stop it early, unplug it.
12 Don’t use the appliance for any purpose other than those described in these instructions.
13 This appliance must not be operated by an external timer or remote control system.
14 Don’t operate the appliance if it’s damaged or malfunctions.
15 If the cable is damaged, return the appliance, to avoid hazard.

BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
1 Wipe the inside of the bowl with a damp cloth.
2 Sit the bowl on the stand.
3 Put both racks into the bowl.
4 Fit the heater on top of the bowl.
5 Press the lock, and lower the handle.
6 Plug the oven into a power socket (switch the socket on, if it’s switchable).
7 Set the temperature to 200°C.
8 Set the timer to 10 minutes.
9 The oven may smoke a bit, but it’s nothing to worry about – ensure the room is well
ventilated.
10 When the timer returns to OFF, and the bell sounds, unplug the oven.
11 Leave it for 10 minutes, then lift the handle, and set the heater into its rest.
12 Leave everything to cool down.
13 Wash the bowl and racks in warm, soapy water, rinse, and dry.
14 The oven is now ready for use
C
HOW IT WORKS
15 The halogen element reaches maximum temperature almost instantaneously, so pre-heating
is not generally necessary, and if you do want to pre-heat, it only takes 5-10 minutes.
16 The fan forces air to circulate, so the temperature inside the oven is uniform.
17 Cooking times are reduced by 30-40%, compared to a traditional oven.
18 Food must be cooked on one of the racks, so that the heat can reach all round.
19 If you put anything in the bowl itself, the circulating hot air will only be able to reach the top
part of the food. The rest of the food will be heated by conduction, which depends on the
makeup of the food. Dense foods like carrots and onions can take forever to cook through.
