HINTS AND TIPS

• This appliance can be used to cook many foods that can also be prepared in a traditional oven.
• Smaller quantities of food normally require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger quantities of food.
• To reduce cooking time, defrost food prior to cooking. It is recommended that some foods should not be thawed/defrosted prior to cooking, such as frozen fish, and frozen French fries.
• It is recommended to use a meat thermometer to check the cooking progress.
