Grip the lid handle, lift the lid fractionally and, with your other hand,
push down the safety lock (at the hinge) to release the lid and allow it
to close, always supporting the weight by the lid handle. If you’re
cooking with the rotisserie, ensure the lid does not foul – or just miss
– the rotisserie food (remember to check in rotation).
Press Start! (though nothing will happen until you
either
select and
adjust a Guide Menu
or
you press Start! again, having set cooking
duration and temperature manually).
The Guide Menus comprise several preset cooking temperatures and times, both
parameters can be adjusted. Firstly, select the appropriate Guide menu closest to what
you’re cooking or the temperature/time you want – there is an indicator for each of the
Guide menus displayed in the LCD panel. Each press of the Guide Menu button cycles
through the presets as described below, in the order as per below.
Then use the Temperature/Time selector to choose which parameter to
adjust – the LCD displays these icons and each will blink when selected,
then use the + and – buttons to increase or decrease that parameter.
You must press the +/- quickly after selecting Temperature /Time otherwise AirChef will
reset itself.
For Temperature, each press of the + or – equates to 10
o
, the range is 50-230
o
C
For Time, each press of the + or – equates to 1 minute, hold the + or – down to move by
10 minutes; the cooking time range is 1-60 minutes.
If you wish to program cooking at a later time, you can set it to start up to 9 hours 59
minutes from setting; follow these steps here:
Press Start! to activate AirChef; press Delay Timer and use the + or – keys to set the future
start point – a single press of either key equates to 1 minute, a long press equates to 20
minutes. Press Start! again. Then select the Guide Menu and adjust as described earlier.
When you’re ready…press Start! to commence cooking. The
AirChef quickly gets up to the set temperature, and you will
typically save that amount of time (and energy) when compared
to a regular oven.
Note: to Start cooking, the Start! button has to be pressed on
two occasions (in Delay Timer mode, it is pressed three times).
To Stop cooking, press that Start! button again.
To Pause cooking, lift the lid – note that the rotor function will remain active, heating only
will Pause; program will resume once the lid is closed (
remember to use the safety catch
).
Take care when handling after cooking, your food and
the AirChef will be hot, and will remain hot for some
time afterwards. Place cooked rotisserie on cradle
Use the safety tongs to lift the Rotor Fryer out.
