Cooking Guide

Your Digital Air Fryer can be used to cook fresh or frozen foods. Always ensure that the ingredients are evenly coated with oil.

1. Plug the Digital Air Fryer into an electrical outlet.

2. When plugged in, the Power button light will turn on. Press this button to enter the function choice mode.

3. In function choice mode, the Power button will flash and the display will show a default temperature of 180°C and a default cook time of 15 min. You may start cooking using these default settings by pressing the Power button again, OR you may use the Temperature, Timer, and Menu buttons to adjust the cook settings.

4. To change the temperature settings, press the Temperature button and use the Up and Down arrow buttons to adjust to the desired temperature.

5. To change the time settings, press the Timer button and use the Up and Down arrow buttons to adjust to the desired cook time.

6. To choose from one of the 7 Preset Cook Functions, press the Menu button. Use the Menu button to toggle between the following functions: Poultry, Steak, Fish, Dessert, Vegetables, Fries, and Prawns.

7. Use the handle to gently pull the cooking tray from the Digital Air Fryer. Place food in the removable cooking basket and replace the tray back into the Digital Air Fryer properly. If the tray is not inserted properly, the appliance will not operate.

8. Use the Power button to start cooking once you’ve adjusted the cook settings to your liking. If you hold the Power button for more than 5 seconds, the Digital Air Fryer will enter standby mode.

9. To ensure crispiness, some foods require shaking frequently through the cooking process. To do this, pull the cooking tray out of the appliance by the handle and gently shake/stir the food. Then slide the tray back into the Digital Air Fryer and continue to cook.
   Note: The removable cooking tray may move out of place when shaking/stirring food in the basket. Ensure the cooking tray is in the proper position before returning the tray to the Digital Air Fryer to continue cooking.

10. When you hear the timer bell, the set cooking time has finished. Pull the tray out of the appliance and place it on a heat resistant surface. Check if the foods are ready. If not, simply put back into the Digital Air Fryer and set the time for a few extra minutes.

11. When the food is ready, carefully pull the cooking tray from the Digital Air Fryer and empty basket of food into serving bowl or plate. For larger or more fragile items, use tongs to lift the food out of the basket.

12. Do not use metallic utensils to take food out from the cooking tray or the cooking basket. Use heat resistant, non-metallic utensils to take out food from the removable cooking tray.

Cooking Popular, Convenience And Frozen Foods

• The following table provides basic cooking guidelines for popular, convenience and frozen foods. Please note that due to the variations in thickness and size of the foods being cooked some experimentation may be required for the best cooking results. Always ensure that the food is thoroughly cooked to food-safe temperature throughout before consuming.
• When cooking fresh fries, we’ve kept the oil quantities as low as possible for the healthiest results. However, if you feel the fries are a little pale and require further browning, increase the quantity of oil slightly.
  Note: For crispier results it is recommended to shake the fryer basket 2-4 times throughout the cooking cycle. For larger quantities, (1kg) increase cooking times and toss food more frequently.
