Loading the unit:

When the door is open, press the rotor button to activate the rotor for easy loading or unloading. Ensure the rotor is evenly loaded to maintain balance. Do not allow empty meat forks, meat baskets, or chicken racks in the grilling process.

1. Insert one point of the meat fork through the chicken’s chest at the position of the wings. Insert the other point through the drumsticks, including the wings.

2. Leave some space between the products for even exposure and browning.

3. Put the meat forks onto the rotor disks so that the chicken breasts face the operator during grilling.

4. Put the points of the meat forks through the appropriate holes in the rotor disks.

5. The other end of the meat forks must be put through the corresponding holes in the opposite rotor disk.

6. To insert the remaining meat forks:

• Switch-on the unit using the on/off button.

• With the door open, use the rotor button to move the rotor to easily insert the next meat fork. Keep the button pressed until the desired position is reached.

• Repeat these steps until all products are loaded.

Using V-shape spits (accessory):

1. Place the skewer into the small outside hole on the rotor end plate on your left (as you face the oven). The back of the V-shape spit should point towards you.

2. Fit the other end of the spit into the small corresponding holes on the rotor end plate on your right.

3. Ensure the spit is level. If not, use the correct holes on the rotor end plates.

Using meat baskets (accessory):

1. Attach the meat baskets to the appropriate pins.

2. Ensure the rotor is evenly loaded so the mass of the products is evenly spread, creating an equal balance.

3. Make sure no meat parts are sticking out of the baskets.

WARNING: After loading the rotor with any accessory, make at least ONE full rotation to check that the rotor can spin without obstructions.

Grilling time depends on several factors:

• The ambient temperature and draft in the direct vicinity of the unit.

• Grilling temperature.

• The initial product temperature.

• The sort of meat (fat or lean) and with or without additives.

• The mass and shape of the product.

• The total amount of meat to be grilled in one grilling cycle.

• The end result.

Guidelines for seasoning:

• Season the products to be grilled when dry.

• Season the products 90 minutes before grilling at the most to prevent spices from abstracting too much fluid from the meat.

• Do not add oil or grease while grilling.

• Season chicken on the inside and on the outside.

WARNING: After grilling, the interior of the unit and the glass panes are very hot. Always use oven gloves when taking out meat forks or other accessories.
