HELPFUL TIPS

¾The Everything Oven Plus has been designed to utilize everyday recipes.

However, cooking temperatures and times may vary. We recommend you

monitor the cooking progress by checking your food frequently during

operation to ensure ideal cooking results.

¾Some recipes call for the oven to be preheated. You might want to preheat 5

to 10 minutes prior to cooking time.

¾Always use non-abrasive cooking utensils since metal may scratch the surfaces.

¾Always use oven mitts to protect from burns and injuries.

¾To protect and prolong the life of your non-stick coated roasting tray, you may

line the tray with aluminum foil (shiny side down).

¾DO NOT place any items on the oven door while it is open. This may cause

the glass to break and may result in injury.

¾Extreme caution should be exercised when you open the glass door.

¾When the oven is not in use, remember to turn all the control switches to

"OFF" position and unplug the unit.

¾Some of the cooking may cause oil to drip on the heating elements. The oil

will vaporize and cause some smoke. If smoke is not excessive, it will not

harm the oven or food.

COOKING & RECIPES (ROTISSERIE)

1. Temperature set: 450 F-475°F

2. Heater Selection: All/Rotisserie

3. Remove the Dust Cover. Keep the Griddle Tray as a top cover during operation.

4. Thumbscrew the two spit rods on one of the rotating wheel that has a pointed

end. Mount the chickens. If you cook two chickens at one time, place them

vertically. If you cook only one chicken at a time, you can place it horizontally.

5. Ensure the food is placed in the center of the spit rods.

6. Position the other rotating wheel onto the spit rods.

7. Mount the rotating set. Put the "pointed" end into the drive socket on the

right side of the oven wall first, and then press down the "Rod" end to the

drive socket on the left side of the oven wall.

8. Set the Timer and begin to cook.

9. When food is done, turn all the control switches to "OFF" position. Use

Rotisserie Handle to remove the Rotating Set; first lift up the left rotating

wheel out of the drive socket, and then pull the right wheel out of the right

drive socket. Place the food on cutting board or platter.

USEFUL TIPS:

¾If you cook two chickens at one time, we suggest each chicken not weigh

over five pounds.

¾Always use cotton butcher's cord for rotisserie to avoid food touching heating

elements.

¾For better taste, season with your favorite seasoning.

¾Use an independent timer and a reliable meat thermometer to check whether

the meat is cooked.

NOTE:

¾Always remember to use protective mitts when you use the oven. It is Hot!
