poultry) using standard Kitchen Twine or Butchers Twine.
USEFUL HINTS & TIPS
• Brush food slightly with some oil for crispier results.
• If coating your foods with a little oil, do so just before cooking.
• If you are cooking different food types consecutively, clean the
accessories between each batch. This will assist in ensuring that the
taste of the food is not affected by what was cooked in the batch
before.
• Should you choose to cook multiple meals consecutively, be aware
that the temperature inside the Air Fryer Oven will be high. Cooking
times will be shorter for all meals following the first. Ensure to make
adjustments to your cooking times and check foods throughout the
cooking process.
• Instead of reheating food in the microwave, do it in the Air Fryer
Oven for crispier, tastier leftovers.
• Mix your seasonings with oil before adding them to your foods to
prevent them from blowing around in the Air Fryer Oven.
• When crumbing, press the crumb mixture onto the food using your
hands. This will prevent the crumbs from blowing off the food during
the cooking cycle.
• Cooking time for roasts will vary with weight. Use a meat
thermometer to check internal temperature.
• Foods that are smaller in size usually require a slightly shorter
cooking time than larger ones.
• Large quantities of food only require a slightly longer cooking time
than smaller quantities.
• Tossing or turning foods halfway through the cooking process,
assures that all the pieces are evenly cooked.
• Misting a bit of vegetable oil to fresh potatoes is suggested for a
crispier result.
• Snacks normally cooked in an oven can also be cooked using this
Air Fryer Oven.
• Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily.
Pre-made dough requires a shorter cooking time than homemade
dough.
• Place a baking tin or oven dish in the Air Fryer Oven when baking a
cake or quiche. A tin or dish is also suggested when cooking delicate
or filled foods.
• Set the Timer to half the time needed for the recipe and the Timer bell
will alert you when it’s time to turn your food. When you hear the
Timer bell, the Air Fryer Oven will turn off and you will need to set the
Timer again for the last half of the cooking cycle.
• If food is not cooked, check to ensure that the accessories are not
overloaded or that the temperature is not set too low.
• Use smaller batches for more even frying.
• If preparing homemade chips/French fries, par-boil and dry properly
before misting them with oil prior to cooking. Note that there are
different types/grades of potatoes available. Some types/grades are
best suited to certain types of meals.
• If chips are not fried evenly, check if the correct type of potato is
being used. Use fresh, firm potatoes. Use cut sticks and pat dry to
remove excess starch.
• If chips/French fries are not crispy then it may be that the raw chips
contained too much water. In the future, cut sticks smaller and ensure
to dry potato sticks properly before misting them with oil. Par-boiling
potato sticks is always recommended prior to oven cooking.

• If preparing homemade chips/French fries, par-boil and dry properly
before misting them with oil prior to cooking. Note that there are
different types/grades of potatoes available. Some types/grades are
best suited to certain types of meals.
• If chips are not fried evenly, check if the correct type of potato is
being used. Use fresh, firm potatoes. Use cut sticks and pat dry to
remove excess starch.
• If chips/French fries are not crispy then it may be that the raw chips
contained too much water. In the future, cut sticks smaller and ensure
to dry potato sticks properly before misting them with oil. Par-boiling
potato sticks is always recommended prior to oven cooking.

USING YOUR AIR FRYER OVEN
• Place the Air Fryer Oven on a flat, stable and heat-resistant
surface. Ensure that there is sufficient space around the unit.
• Ensure that all of the Dials are in their original starting positions.
Plug the Air Fryer Oven into a wall socket and switch the wall
socket on.
• Slide the Crumb Tray into the bottom of the Inner Oven Cavity.
The Crumb Tray must be used in the Air Fryer Oven at all times.
• Position the Baking and Roasting Tray in the lower or middle
oven rack position.
• PREHEAT:
o Use the Temperature Control Dial to set the desired cooking
temperature.
o Turn the Function Control Dial to select your preferred Preset
Cooking Function.
o Now turn the Timer Control Dial. We recommend adding 3-5
minutes to the amount of cooking time required so as to allow for
preheating of your Air Fryer Oven. You will notice that the Power
Indicator Light has illuminated, indicating that the Air Fryer Oven
is now ON and that the heating/cooking cycle has begun.
• While the Air Fryer Oven is preheating, prepare ingredients and
select an appropriate accessory.
• Once the Air Fryer Oven has preheated, you may add the
accessory containing those foods into the best suited oven rack
position in the Air Fryer Oven. Ensure that it is positioned above the
Baking and Roasting Tray.
• Turn or toss food over midway if required.
• You will hear the Timer ring once the cooking cycle time has
completed.
• When finished, return all the Dials to their original starting positions
and unplug the Air Fryer Oven.
• While wearing protective oven gloves, remove food using the
appropriate tool and plate food as desired.
• Clean and store the Air Fryer Oven and its accessories following the
instructions in this user guide.
NOTE:
• We recommend preheating your Air Fryer Oven prior to cooking
foods to obtain the best results. Simply add an additional 3-5 minutes
to the required cooking time.
• When cooking foods from frozen, ensure to extend the amount of
cooking time accordingly to allow for the foods to defrost first.
• The Bennett Read 25L Air Fryer Oven features six heating elements
which lets you customize cooking for every dish. There are four
heating elements on the top and two heating elements on the
bottom. Find the Preset Cooking Function best suited to your recipe
by checking the Preset Function Guide. The Preset Function Guide
will show you which elements heat up for each Function, as well as
help you identify which Function is closely matched to your needs.
• The cooking cycle can be stopped at any time, simply by turning the
Timer Control Dial back to “0”.
• Always choose the appropriate accessories for the cooking task.
• Ensure that ingredients are not situated too close or touching the
heating elements. Do not place ingredients, accessories or
cookware directly onto the heating elements. Allow room for
ingredients to expand whilst cooking.
• Use oven gloves or mitts to remove accessories or cookware from
the Air Fryer Oven.
• To prolong the life of your appliance, accessories and cookware,
do not drag accessories or cookware on/across the Oven Door or
Appliance Body.
USING THE ROTISSERIE SKEWER & FORK SET
• Ensure that the Crumb Tray and the Baking and Roasting Tray are
correctly positioned inside the Inner Oven Cavity.
• Assemble the Rotisserie Skewer and Fork Set:
o You will notice that there are indentations on the Skewer. Those
indentations are intended for the supplied thumbscrews.
o Start by sliding the first Rotisserie Fork onto the Skewer. Securely
tighten its thumbscrew into the corresponding indentation.
o Force the Skewer through the centre of the meat until the meat is
securely held in place by the first Fork.
o Next, slide the last Fork onto the Skewer, further securing the
meat. Tighten the remaining thumbscrew into the corresponding
indentation to hold all in place.
• Using the Rotisserie Handle, place it beneath the Rotisserie Set and
lift.
• Add the Rotisserie Set containing the food into the Air Fryer Oven.
First, insert the Skewer into the drive socket on the side of the Oven
Cavity. Now place the square-shaped end down into the shaft
support bracket.
• You can use any of the Preset Functions, except the Toast Function,
when cooking with the Rotisserie.
• Once finished, remove food whilst wearing protective oven gloves.
Remove food from the Air Fryer Oven by using the Rotisserie Handle:
o Situate both ends of the Rotisserie Handle so that they are correctly
positioned beneath the Rotisserie Set.
o Start by lifting the square-shaped end (located in the shaft support
bracket) up.
o Next, slowly move the Rotisserie Set out from the drive socket.
• Place food onto a cutting board or serving dish. Remove the
Rotisserie Set by loosening the thumbscrews and carefully removing
the Rotisserie Forks as well as Skewer.
NOTE:
• You may adjust the thumbscrews closer to the middle of the
Skewer if needed, but never outward towards the ends.
• Ensure that the meat is not too large. Meat must be able to rotate
freely within the oven.
• Always truss meat in preparation for rotisserie cooking to avoid
the meat from touching against the elements. Do so by tying and
securing the meat (legs and wings included, if you are roasting
poultry) using standard Kitchen Twine or Butchers Twine.
USEFUL HINTS & TIPS
• Brush food slightly with some oil for crispier results.
• If coating your foods with a little oil, do so just before cooking.
• If you are cooking different food types consecutively, clean the
accessories between each batch. This will assist in ensuring that the
taste of the food is not affected by what was cooked in the batch
before.
• Should you choose to cook multiple meals consecutively, be aware
that the temperature inside the Air Fryer Oven will be high. Cooking
times will be shorter for all meals following the first. Ensure to make
adjustments to your cooking times and check foods throughout the
cooking process.
• Instead of reheating food in the microwave, do it in the Air Fryer
Oven for crispier, tastier leftovers.
• Mix your seasonings with oil before adding them to your foods to
prevent them from blowing around in the Air Fryer Oven.
• When crumbing, press the crumb mixture onto the food using your
hands. This will prevent the crumbs from blowing off the food during
the cooking cycle.
• Cooking time for roasts will vary with weight. Use a meat
thermometer to check internal temperature.
• Foods that are smaller in size usually require a slightly shorter
cooking time than larger ones.
• Large quantities of food only require a slightly longer cooking time
than smaller quantities.
• Tossing or turning foods halfway through the cooking process,
assures that all the pieces are evenly cooked.
• Misting a bit of vegetable oil to fresh potatoes is suggested for a
crispier result.
• Snacks normally cooked in an oven can also be cooked using this
Air Fryer Oven.
• Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily.
Pre-made dough requires a shorter cooking time than homemade
dough.
• Place a baking tin or oven dish in the Air Fryer Oven when baking a
cake or quiche. A tin or dish is also suggested when cooking delicate
or filled foods.
• Set the Timer to half the time needed for the recipe and the Timer bell
will alert you when it’s time to turn your food. When you hear the
Timer bell, the Air Fryer Oven will turn off and you will need to set the
Timer again for the last half of the cooking cycle.
• If food is not cooked, check to ensure that the accessories are not
overloaded or that the temperature is not set too low.
• Use smaller batches for more even frying.
• If preparing homemade chips/French fries, par-boil and dry properly
before misting them with oil prior to cooking. Note that there are
different types/grades of potatoes available. Some types/grades are
best suited to certain types of meals.
• If chips are not fried evenly, check if the correct type of potato is
being used. Use fresh, firm potatoes. Use cut sticks and pat dry to

OVERHEATING PROTECTION
Should the inner temperature control system experience a
problem, the overheating protection system will be activated and
the heating elements will not function. Should this happen, unplug
the power cord and allow time for the unit to cool completely. The
Timer may continue to run until it reaches the “0” position. Once
cooled, the Air Fryer Oven will resume its last cooking function
previously set, unless the Timer has already reached its starting
position.
Note that if food is taken out during this time then it may not be
sufficiently cooked. If the heating elements continue not to function,
please contact your local Tevo Service Centre for evaluation.
AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF
The appliance has a built in “shut-off” mechanism that will
automatically shut the unit OFF when the Timer reaches zero.
CARE & CLEANING
• Ensure cleaning of the appliance after every use. Regular
cleaning prevents accumulation of fats, oils and grease.
• Always unplug the appliance and allow it to cool for at least
30 minutes before cleaning. Do not touch the appliance and its
accessories until they are completely cool.
• Remove the accessories after each use and wash them in
warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly with a clean, soft
cloth.
• For tough food residue, allow accessories to soak in a warm
water and detergent mixture for 10 minutes.
• Wipe the Oven Door, appliance interior and the exterior with a
cloth, slightly dampened with warm, soapy water. Take care
not to allow water or soap to enter into the appliance. Dry with
paper towel or a dry, soft cloth.
• As a frying and cooking appliance, oils and fats may build up
by the heating elements. You may notice excessive smoke
emitting from the appliance over time. This is usually an
indicator that the elements need cleaning:
o Use a soft, dry bristle brush to lightly brush stubborn build-up
off the elements.
o Use a soft, disposable cleaning cloth or sponge, slightly
dampened with a small amount of detergent to finish
cleaning the elements, and wipe clean all accessible areas of
the element area.
o Thoroughly dry the element area, ensuring that no detergent
or moisture remains before using or storing the appliance.
• Do not use abrasive tools, aerosols, cleaning aids, scouring
pads or harsh detergents as they may damage your appliance.
• Never use metal utensils to remove residue or food stains as they
can damage the appliance and the interior non-stick coating.
• Do not expose the Oven Door to cold liquids or cold surfaces
while the Oven Door is still warm or hot. Glass as a material is
fragile and subject to adverse reaction with extreme variances
in temperature. Extreme variances in temperature, such as
placing hot/warm glass onto a cold surface or exposing
hot/warm glass to cold water, can cause glass to crack or
shatter.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid. Do
not place it in the dishwasher.
• Ensure that water and liquids do not enter into the appliance.
TIP:
Pour used oil and fats into an old jam jar and dispose of it once
you have collected a fair amount. This is environmentally friendly
and by avoiding pouring the oils down the drain, it will ensure
that your drain pipes do not become clogged over time.
STORAGE
• Ensure that all parts are dry before storing.
• Never store the appliance while it is hot, still wet or dirty.
• Store the appliance in a clean, dry area such as a stable
countertop or in a cupboard.
• To avoid accidents, ensure that both the appliance and its
power cord are beyond the reach of children or pets.
• Never wrap the power cord around the appliance.
