This guide is designed for first-time use. For safety and more information, refer to the rest of the Instruction Book.

PREPARING THE OVEN

In order to remove any protective substances on the heating elements, it is necessary to run the oven empty for 20 minutes. Ensure the area is well ventilated as the oven may emit vapors. These vapors are safe and are not detrimental to the performance of the oven.

1. Remove and safely discard any packing material, promotional labels, and tape from the oven.
2. Remove the crumb tray, wire racks, broiling rack, roasting pan, air fry/dehydrate basket,  a nd pizza pan from the polyfoam packaging. Wash them with a soft sponge in warm, soapy water, er then rinse and dry thoroughly.
3. Wipe the interior of the oven with a soft, damp sponge. Dry thoroughly.
4. Place the oven on a flat, dry surface. Ensure there is a minimum distance of 4″ (10cm) of space on both sides of the appliance and 6″ (15cm) above.
5. Insert the crumb tray into the oven.
6. Unwind the power cord completely and insert the power plug into a grounded power outlet.
7. The oven alert will sound, and the LCD screen will illuminate. The function options will appear with an indicator on the TOAST setting.
8. Turn the SELECT/CONFIRM dial to the right until the indicator reaches the PIZZA function.
9. Press the START/STOP button. The button backlight will illuminate red, the LCD screen will illuminate orange, and the oven alert will sound.
10. The LCD screen will indicate a blinking ‘PREHEATING’. Once the oven has completed the preheating cycle, an alert will sound.
11. The timer will be displayed and automatically begin to count down.
12. At the end of the cooking cycle, the oven alert will sound, the START/STOP button backlight will go out, and the LCD screen will illuminate white.
13. The oven is now ready to use.

ELEMENT iQ

The Breville Smart Oven‰ Air Fryer Pro features Element iQ‰, a cooking technology that adjusts the power of the heating elements to cook food more evenly and quickly. Each of the oven’s functions is preset with our recommended setting; however, we suggest experimenting with these depending on the recipe, amount of food, and your taste.

Your customized setting will remain in the memory of the oven until changed or you reset the oven to the factory defaults, even if the power cord is unplugged. To do this, press and hold the FROZEN and TEMPERATURE CONVERSION buttons together for 5 seconds.

OVEN FUNCTIONS OVERVIEW

Functions

OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE OVEN

1. Insert the wire rack into the desired rack position. The rack positions are conveniently printed on the left-hand side of the oven door window. There are four groove positions. The rack can be inserted either facing upwards or downwards to allow two rack positions for each groove.
2. Turn the SELECT/CONFIRM dial until the indicator on the LCD screen reaches the desired setting.
3. The top figure on the LCD screen indicates the preset cooking temperature for the selected setting. For the TOAST and BAGEL settings, it indicates the darkness level. Turn the TEMPERATURE dial to the left to reduce the temperature or to the right to increase the temperature.
4. The bottom figure on the LCD screen indicates the preset cooking time for the selected setting. For the TOAST and BAGEL settings, it indicates the number of slices. Turn the TIME dial to the left to reduce the cooking time or to the right to increase the cooking time.
5. For settings without a preheat cycle (TOAST, BAGEL, BROIL, WARM, PROOF, REHEAT, DEHYDRATE), place the food directly on the wire rack or on the included air fry/dehydrate basket, pizza pan, broiling rack, and/or roasting pan. Ensure the food is centered in the oven for the most even cooking.
   1. Close the oven door.
   2. Press the START/STOP button. The button backlight will illuminate red, the oven alert will sound, and the LCD screen will illuminate orange.
   3. The timer will be displayed and begin to count down. The cooking temperature and time can be adjusted during the cooking cycle.
6. For settings that feature a preheat cycle (BAKE, ROAST, PIZZA, AIR FRY, COOKIES, SLOW COOK), press the START/STOP button before placing food in the oven (except SLOW COOK. Place the food before the preheat cycle for SLOW COOK). The button backlight will illuminate red, the oven alert will sound, and the LCD screen will indicate a blinking ‘PREHEATING’ while the oven is heating up.
   1. When the oven is ready for use, the blinking ‘PREHEATING’ will go out, the oven alert will sound, and the timer will start counting down. Place the food directly on the wire rack, or on the included air fry/dehydrate basket, pizza pan, broiling rack, and/or roasting pan. Ensure the food is centered in the oven for the most even cooking.
   2. Close the oven door.
   3. The timer will continue to count down. The cooking temperature and time can be adjusted during the cooking cycle.

NOTE

The cooking cycle can be stopped at any time by pressing the START/STOP button. This will cancel the cycle, and the button backlight will illuminate white.

NOTE

Press the CONVECTION button to choose between no convection, convection, and super convection. Convection and superconvection may adjust the temperature to compensate. Super convection will deliver crispier food results

DOOR SENSOR

If the door is opened during cooking, the timer will pause, and the light will turn on.

When the door is closed, the timer will resume counting down, and the light will stay on for 30 seconds before turning off. If the door is open for longer than 10 minutes during cooking, the heaters will turn off.

MAGNETIC AUTO-EJECT RACK

When the wire rack is inserted into rack position 3 or 4, it will automatically eject halfway out of the oven when the door is opened, so you can easily remove your food. Always open the door slowly when the wire rack is in this position to prevent the rack from ejecting too quickly.

BUZZER VOLUME

Press and hold the TEMPERATURE CONVERSION button for 3 seconds to enter the buzzer volume control mode.

Press the TEMPERATURE CONVERSION button to select the desired volume. To confirm, press any button.

ROTATE REMIND

When cooking food on multiple racks at one time, use the Rotate Remind feature to remind you to switch the position of food in the oven for the most even, consistent results. Rotate Remind is available for the following functions: BAKE, ROAST, WARM, PROOF, PIZZA, AIR FRY, REHEAT, COOKIES, and DEHYDRATE.

1. Turn the SELECT/CONFIRM dial until the indicator on the LCD screen reaches your desired function.
2. Press the SELECT/CONFIRM dial. ‘Rotate Remind’ will display on the LCD screen.
3. Follow the steps for the function you selected and begin cooking your food.
4. When it is time to switch rack positions, the Rotate Remind alert will sound, and ‘Rotate Remind’ will flash on the screen. The Rotate Remind alert will continue to sound every 30 seconds until the door is opened or the SELECT/CONFIRM dial is pressed to disable the feature.

NOTE

When cooking food on baking pans or other cooking vessels on multiple wire racks, it is suggested to leave sufficient room between racks and avoid using the top rack position due to proximity to the heating elements.

In most cases, rack positions 3 and 7 or 4 and 8 will give the best results. When using air fry/ dehydrate baskets, it is not necessary to leave space between rack positions.

TOAST FUNCTION

The TOAST function browns and crisps the outside of your bread while keeping the inside soft and moist. This function is also ideal for English muffins and frozen waffles.

1. Insert the wire rack into rack position 4.
2. Position bread slices as close to the center of the wire rack as possible for optimum toasting results.
3. Close the oven door.
4. Turn the SELECT/CONFIRM dial until the indicator on the LCD screen reaches the TOAST function. The top figure on the LCD screen indicates the preset darkness setting ‘4’, while the bottom figure indicates the preset number of slices ‘4’.

NOTE

The cooking time is dependent on a number of variables, including the temperature in the oven, so the time may vary, even with the same color and settings. This is to achieve consistent results.

BAGEL FUNCTION

The BAGEL function crisps the insides of your cut bagel while only lightly toasting the outside. This function is also ideal for toasting crumpets or thick-sliced specialty breads, which require one side to be toasted more than the other.

1. Insert the wire rack into rack position 4.
2. Position bagel halves with cut side facing upwards as close to the center of the wire rack as possible for optimum toasting results.
3. Close the oven door.
4. Turn the SELECT/CONFIRM dial until the indicator on the LCD screen reaches the BAGEL function. The top figure on the LCD screen indicates the preset darkness setting ‘4’, while the bottom figure indicates the preset number of bagel halves ‘4’.

8. At the end of the BAGEL cycle, the oven alert will sound. The START/STOP button backlight will go out, and the LCD screen will illuminate white.

NOTE

The inside (cut side) of the bagel must always face upwards towards the top heating elements. This allows the cut side to get crisp while the crust is only lightly toasted.

If you like your bagel halves equally crisp on both the top and bottom, we recommend using the TOAST function to toast your cut bagel.

BROIL FUNCTION

The BROIL function is ideal for cooking open-faced sandwiches, thin cuts of meat, poultry,ry and fish, sausages, eggs, and vegetables. Broiling can also be used to brown the tops of casseroles, gratins, and desserts.

1. Insert the wire rack into either rack position 1 or 2.

Care & Cleaning

Before cleaning, ensure the oven is turned off by removing the power plug from the power outlet.

Allow the oven and all accessories to cool completely before disassembling and cleaning.

Cleaning the outer body and door

1. Wipe the outer body with a soft, damp sponge. A non-abrasive liquid cleanser or mild spray solution may be used to avoid the build-up of stains. Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the oven surface, before cleaning.
2. To clean the glass door, use a glass cleaner or mild detergent and a soft, damp sponge or soft plastic scouring pad. Do not use an abrasive cleanser or metal scouring pad, as these will scratch the oven surface.
3. Wipe the LCD screen with a soft, damp cloth. Apply cleanser to the cloth and not the LCD surface. Cleaning with a dry cloth or abrasive cleaners may scratch the surface.
4. Let all surfaces dry thoroughly before inserting the power plug into a power outlet and turning the oven on.

WARNING

Do not immerse the body, power cord, or power plug in water or any other liquid, as this may cause electrocution.

Cleaning the interior

The walls on the inside of the oven feature a non-stick coating for easy cleaning. To clean any splattering that may occur while cooking, wipe the walls with a soft, damp sponge. A nonabrasive liquid cleanser or mild spray solution may be used to avoid the buildup of stains. Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the oven surface, before cleaning. Avoid touching the quartz heating elements.

WARNING

Use extreme caution when cleaning the quartz heating elements. Allow the oven to cool completely, then gently rub a soft, damp sponge or cloth along the length of the heating element.

Do not use any type of cleanser or cleaning agent. Do not use any standard oven cleaner to clean the interior of the oven, as this will deteriorate the metal surface.

Let all surfaces dry thoroughly before inserting the power plug into a power outlet and turning the oven on.

Cleaning the crumb tray

1. After each use, slide out the crumb tray and discard crumbs. Wipe the tray with a soft, damp sponge. A non-abrasive liquid cleanser may be used to avoid the build-up of stains. Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the tray, before cleaning. Dry thoroughly.
2. To remove baked-on grease, soak the tray in warm soapy water, then wash with a soft sponge or soft plastic scouring pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
3. Always reinsert the crumb tray into the oven after cleaning and prior to inserting the power plug into a power outlet and turning the oven on.

Cleaning the wire rack, broiling rack, roasting pan, and pizza pan

1. Wash all accessories in warm, soapy water with a soft sponge or soft plastic scouring pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive cleansers, metal scouring pads, or metal utensils to clean any of the accessories, as they may damage the surfaces.
2. To extend the life of your accessories, we do not recommend that they be placed in the dishwasher.

Storage

1. Ensure the oven is turned off by removing the power plug from the power outlet.
2. Allow the oven and all accessories to cool completely before disassembling and cleaning.
3. Ensure the oven and all accessories are clean and dry.
4. Ensure the crumb tray is inserted into the oven; the broiling rack is inserted into the roasting pan and resting on the wire rack in the middle rack height position.
5. Ensure the door is closed.
6. Store the appliance in an upright position, standing level on its support legs. Do not store anything on top. The only exception is the optional Breville Bamboo Cutting Board and Serving Tray.
