Get started

Initial set up

“We all eat, and it would be a sad waste of opportunity to eat badly.” — Anna Thomas

01 Pull that Omni Plus out of the box!

02 Remove all the packaging material from in and around the toaster oven.

Don’t remove any safety warning stickers or the rating label from the oven.

03 You may be tempted to put the Omni Plus on your stovetop for quick use — but don’t do it! Place it on a stable, level surface, away from combustible material and external heat sources. Wipe the heating element with a soft, dry cloth to make sure there are no stray packaging particles left in the multicooker base.

Make sure to leave at least 13 cm / 5" of space above and around all sides of the appliance.

04 Remove the crumb tray and check the cooking chamber for loose debris.

05 Follow the Care, cleaning and storage instructions to wash your new toaster oven before using it.

CAUTION

  • Read the Important safeguards before using the appliance. Failure to read and follow those instructions for safe use may result in damage to the appliance, property damage or personal injury.
  • Do not place the appliance on a stovetop, upon on another appliance, or in a heated oven. Heat from an external source will damage the appliance.
  • To avoid the risk of fire, property damage, and/or personal injury, do not place anything on top of the appliance, and do not block the air vents.

Initial test run

Do you have to do the test run? No — but getting to know the ins and outs of your Omni Plus prepares you for success in the kitchen! Take a few minutes to get to know how this little beauty works

Stage 1: Setting up for cooking

01 Open the oven door. Slide the cooking pan onto the bottom rack position, and into the cooking chamber. Close the door.

02 Plug the power cord into a 120 V power source. The oven is in standby mode and the display shows OFF.

03 Push the dial to wake the oven. Touch the temperature field. Air Fry and the temperature field will flash. The temperature field shows 400°F.

Don’t change the temperature during the test run.

04 Touch the time field to select the cooking time.

05 Turn the dial to adjust the time to 20 minutes (00:20).

06 Touch Start to begin. The display shows On while the oven preheats.

Stage 2: “Cooking” (…but not really, this is just a test!)

01 When the oven reaches the perfect temperature, it beeps and begins the cooking countdown.

Don’t cook food during the test run.

02 Partway through cooking, the display shows turn Food. Wait 10 seconds for the program to resume automatically, or, open and close the oven door to pause and resume the program manually.

When the oven door is open, the display shows OPEN.

03 The oven counts down the last minute of the cooking time in seconds and beeps when finished. The oven will enter the Keep Warm state and once the program finishes, the display shows End.

04 Open and close the oven door to return to standby mode and start cooking for real!

If you forget this last step, the toaster oven will beep to remind you about it.

CAUTION Metal, glass surfaces and accessories will be hot during and after cooking. To avoid burn injury, do not touch the appliance, or attempt to insert or remove accessories without proper hand protection.

Cooking

The Omni Plus is a powerhouse countertop oven that you can trust to cook evenly and deeply.

What we love about it What you should know about it
By combining rapid air circulation with innovative golden quartz heating elements, the Omni Plus heats up quickly, and cooks way faster than regular ovens. The Omni Plus has a bit of a learning curve. Golden quartz elements use infrared light to cook, which produce more heat, much faster than a regular element.
Instant Tip: Try reducing your recipes’ cooking time and/or temperature by up to 25% to get the results you like best. The Omni Plus will remember the changes you make!

Check out the cooking timetables for guidance, or visit our recipe site for fun, easy-tofollow instructions. You can also download the free Instant Pot app to search recipes, save favorites and more.

Cooking accessories

The oven rack is perfect for toasting bread and bagels, and baking pizza and big ol’ baked potatoes. You can place any oven-safe cookware on the oven rack, the same as you would in a regular oven.

Do not cover the oven rack when cooking.

Place the oven rack or cooking pan on the top, middle, or bottom positions as your recipe recommends, or however you see fit!

The cooking pan should be used for messy foods, like chicken tenders, herb roasted veggies and cheesy garlic bread.

Instant Tip: Line the pan with parchment paper instead of aluminum foil. Optionally, spray the pan or basket with non-stick cooking spray before adding food to help prevent sticking.

The air fryer basket is perforated for airflow and can be used for most air fried or roasted foods, like chicken wings and coconut shrimp, or buffalo cauliflower bites and garlicky Brussels sprouts. Always place the air fryer basket on the cooking pan when inserting it into the oven.

CAUTION To avoid risk of fire, property damage and/or personal injury, do not spray oil into the cooking chamber, and never use aluminum foil.

Air Fry, Roast and Bake

These programs use convection cooking to give your meals rich, crispy flavor with little to no oil, so you can say, “See ya!” to the greasy mess and extra calories! The cooking times and temperatures below are recommendations only. Play with the presets to get the results you like best!

02 Partway through cooking, the display shows turn Food. Open the oven door if you want to turn or toss your food items. Close the oven door to resume the cooking program.

If your food doesn’t need to be flipped, wait 10 seconds for the program to resume automatically, or, open and close the oven door to pause and resume the program manually

03 When the oven enters into the Keep Warm state or the display shows End, carefully open the door, and, using proper hand protection, remove your food from the cooking chamber.

Once cooking finishes, the Omni Plus will remind you to touch Cancel or remove your meal every 5 minutes for up to 1 hour.

Cooking tips

Give all your favorite fresh and frozen snacks a fighting chance!

• Air Fry, Bake and Roast preheat as an important step, and most foods benefit from a preheated oven. Wait for the countdown to appear before adding food to the cooking chamber.

• When baking cake, pie, quiche, and other treats, any oven-safe baking dish will do! If you’re worried about overcooking, cover it with any oven-safe lid.

• For coated food, like onion rings or deep-fried pickles, use an egg wash with bread-crumbs rather than liquid-based batters to make sure that batter sticks to the food.

• Spray food items with cooking oil before adding seasoning to get the seasoning to stick well.

• For super crispy fries, soak your freshcut potato sticks in ice water for 15 minutes, then pat them dry and toss them lightly with oil before cooking.

• Patting dry moist food items before cooking prevents excess steam and splatter, and gives you crispier results.

• Air frying can cause oil and fat to drip from foods. To prevent excess smoke, watch the oil levels and carefully remove and drain the cooking pan and/or crumb tray as needed.

Always use proper hand protection when handling and/or disassembling hot rotisserie accessories.

Instant Pot 140-4002-01 Questions and Answers

Find answers or Ask a question.
  • Total questions: 1
  • Questions unAnswered : 1

#1 How long does it take for door lock to release?
There is no door lock on the model.

#2 Can I sit it outside on my table to cook?
Yes, of course it cant get wet, has to have a solid place to sit and ventilation around it.

#3 What about clean up for rotisserie spit? I had a machine that for just rotisserie spit and it was a pain to clean afterwards.
Everything removable (except the door) is dishwasher safe. Just wipe down the inside with soap and warm water.

#4 Could you boil/reheat soup, or heat up milk for a bottle?
You should only warm up milk for a bottle by putting it in warm water. Otherwise you risk burning the baby. But we use it to reheat soup all the time.

#5 How many watts is this one?
The Vortex Plus draws 1500 Watts.

#6 Does the oven have a pre-heating function prior to the timer starting?
It does pre-heat before the timer starts...it is so quick that I put my food in at the very start.

#7 Does it get really hot to the touch on the outside? Just wondering how close it can go to walls etc.
Hot enough that if I’m doing anything other than toast I pull it away from the wall.
