temperature and thickness of food you may have to adjust the time.  
Simply press on the ‘+ or –‘ Button to cook to your liking. 

HELPFUL HINTS

1)  Is your food cooked? 

a) Steaks: rare, medium and well done
  Rare:  Flesh springs back when pressed lightly with a fi nger. 
  Medium: Flesh is less springy and takes more time to spring back. 
  Well-done: Very fi rm to touch with no spring back. 
b) Chicken: 
 Pierce 

fl esh with a fork and apply a little pressure to release juice. 

  The juice will be clear when fully cooked. 
c) Fish: 
 Fish 

fl esh will turn from translucent to opaque when cooked.  Take 

  care not to overcook fi sh. 
d) Meats over 2” (5 cm) thick: (roasts, ham, whole chickens, etc.) 
  Turn halfway through cooking, if you are NOT using the Rotisserie, 
  to ensure even cooking.  Always start with the top side facing down 
  (the side you want ‘up’ when you serve).  The exception is turkey 
  which you do not need to turn. 
e) Browning: 
   The distance from the heat source is important.  The Air-Wave 

Health Cooker browns quickly so foods that need more than 18 
– 20 minutes cooking time should be placed on the lower rack so 
they are further from the heat source to prevent over browning.  
Thin steaks and chops will be cooked before the surface goes a 
deep brown so these foods need to be closer to the heat source on 
the high rack.  

2)  Moisture may build up inside the Transparent Cover when cooked 

food is not removed soon after the cooking time has expired.  This 
steam/moisture build-up can be avoided by removing the food soon 
after cooking is complete.  If food is to be kept warm, reset the 
cooking temperature at a minimum level.
