The Food Tumbler Aid hangs inside the glass bowl, opposite the hot air opening. The
sealing ring around the lid has a location tab set at the centre of a small arc in which the
food tumbler aid can be positioned – you may get better cooking results moving the
tumbler within this small arc.
BEFORE USE
Check that the voltage of the appliance corresponds to the mains voltage of your home.
Remove all packaging from INSIDE and OUTSIDE and be sure you understand the
controls. Therefore,
BE SURE TO READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST BEFORE
PROCEEDING
.
MAKE SURE IT IS SITUATED IN LINE WITH THE IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS
outlined in this booklet. Never use the Cooker with anything plastic
(including bags) inside the glass bowl, other than the accessories provided.
Wash the accessories and glass bowl in warm soapy water, rinse well and dry thoroughly
before first use. It is normal if some smoke or odour emanates from the appliance when
first used.
Ensure temperature selector is set to 0.
BEFORE FIRST USE…practice dis-assembly and assembly of the accessories; in
particular the Tongs (for the Cooking Rack) and raising and lowering the Lid Arm.
Practice with the Cooker switched off, disconnected and empty.
HOW TO OPERATE
Firstly, you must decide if you are cooking with the turntable rack or with the Food
Tumbler and if you are using the Extender ring. Use the rack if you are oven
cooking, grilling, defrosting, baking; use the Food Tumbler and Aid if you will be
cooking directly in the glass bowl – you cannot use these with the rack in place.
•
Ensure the Crisp & Bake is cool and unplugged, the Timer and Temperature
selectors set to 0
•
Raise the Lid arm, ensure the appliance is cool.
Although we insist that foodstuffs are placed on the
rack provided, you can cook certain dry foods that
lend themselves to hot air cooking (like French fries)
directly in the glass bowl, provided that you use the
Food Tumbler and Aid to ensure all the food’s
surfaces are exposed to the cooking air. Under no
circumstances should you add oil or any other liquid
into the glass bowl for the purpose of cooking (you
can add water and washing-up liquid for cleaning).
In this format, you cook with the Food Tumbler and
Aid in place.
By raising the lid arm’s height, you can fit
the extender ring to give extra height
inside; consequently, you can
comfortably prepare a traditional roast
dinner (for example) with the joint having
sufficient clearance between itself and
the halogen heater so as to avoid undue
localised overcooking.
The turntable cooking rack (not the Food
Tumbler or Aid) can be used with the
cooking arm at regular height if the meal
being prepared is not high.
The pictures
show the Food
Tumbler fitted;
follow the same
steps if you are
using Turntable
Rack.
On some models, you
may need to slide this
selector up to unlock the
Lid Arm, and then raise it
to the vertical position, as
you can see below. You
may need to steady the
Crisp & Bake while lifting
the Lid Arm.
