  10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or stovetop, or where it could touch another heated oven.
  11. Extreme caution must be used when moving the appliance. Let the appliance cool to room temperature before handling or moving.
  12. When in operation, hot air is released through the air vents. Keep your hands and face at a safe distance from the air vents and make sure not to cover them to allow for proper ventilation in the unit. Take extreme caution when removing the accessories from the appliance, failure to do so may lead to burns and/or injury.
  13. When operating the oven keep at least four inches of space on all sides of the oven to allow for adequate air circulation.
  14. Always operate on a stable, heat-resistant surface. Do not use it on a cloth-covered surface, near curtains, or other flammable materials.
  15. Do not place the oven near the edge of a bench or table during operation. Ensure the surface is level, clean, and free of water, debris, etc.
  16. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance or parts containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
  17. Do not use the appliance for other than intended use.
  18. Oversized foods or metal utensils must not be inserted in the Air Fryer Toaster Oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
  19. A fire may occur if the Air Fryer Toaster Oven is covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls, and the like, when in operation. Do not store any item on top of the appliance when in operation.

3-PRONG PLUG INSTRUCTIONS

For your safety, this appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazards, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3 prong, grounding type, wall receptacle, grounded by the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 latest edition and all local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a properly grounded, 3-prong, wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.

  • The electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least that of the appliance. If the electrical rating of the extension cord is too low, it could overheat and burn.
  • The resulting extended cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

BEFORE THE FIRST USE

  • Unpack the appliance and accessories, then wash and wipe everything down. Wipe the interior of the oven with a damp cloth or sponge. Dry with a paper towel. Make sure the oven is dry before operating the unit.
  • Position the oven on a flat and heat-resistant surface so that it is also positioned at least 4 inches (10cm) away from any surrounding object.
  • Unwind and plug the power cord into the wall outlet.
  • Place the sliding crumb tray inside on the bottom of the unit, underneath the bottom heating elements. Make sure the unit is clean and everything has been taken out of the oven.
  • It is normal if some smoke or smell emanates from the appliance when using it for the first time. This is not harmful. To eliminate any packing oil that may remain after production, we recommend operating the appliance for 20 minutes and putting the thermostat on its maximum temperature setting (450 °F).
  • Once you plug in the unit, the POWER button will turn on to indicate it is ready for use.

Accessories
Only one accessory (other than the crumb tray) can be used at once while cooking.

Air frying basket
Holds all the food items you would normally fry but without the mess. Hot air easily passes through the mesh to surround the food from all angles, resulting in even cooking or grilling.

Baking pan
Has the versatility to cook and bake all your favorite meals. Stainless steel durability and easy cleaning.

Note : Use the baking pan when cooking greasy foods or ingredients that drip a lot. This will prevent grease, oil, and other liquids from falling onto the lower heating elements. Make sure to also flip or shake your food AT LEAST once halfway through the cooking process to ensure the best results. Always keep an eye on your food by looking through the window.

Air rack
Place your casserole dishes or cake molds into the oven on this rack for stability and even airflow.

Crumb tray
Catches everything that drips and all the crumbs to always keep your unit clean. Place under the lower heating elements every time you cook and make sure to wipe clean after every use.

Note : Crumb tray is not dishwasher safe. Wash by hand in warm soapy water.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

  • Make sure to clean the appliance after each use! Cleaning regularly prevents the accumulation of grease and helps avoid unpleasant smells.
  • Unplug the appliance from the outlet and allow it to cool completely.
  • Do not immerse the unit in water or wash it under running water.
  • All accessories, except the sliding crumb tray, are dishwasher safe. All can be washed in hot soapy water.
  • Do not use metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials to clean them, as this may damage the non-stick coating. Rinse and dry thoroughly after cleaning

Inside Cleaning

  • To remove crumbs, pull out the sliding crumb tray from the Air Fryer Toaster Oven. Wipe clean and place back inside before using the appliance.

  • Wipe the inner cavity with a damp cloth or sponge. Dry with a paper towel. To remove baked food, pour a little cooking oil on the food and allow it to stand for five to ten minutes. This should soften the food and allow it to be removed with an absorbent paper towel or soft cloth.

  • Clean the inside of the glass door with a damp soapy cloth. If the glass has stubborn stains, open the door, and cover the inside of the door
    with a few damp paper towels. Leave for a few minutes, then remove the towels and wipe the door clean. Never use sharp utensils as scratching may weaken it and cause it to shatter.

  • Never use abrasive products in the cavity. Never immerse the appliance in water and make sure no water or dampness penetrates the appliance except in the cavity. Make sure to not drop water on the oven door while it is still hot as the sudden temperature change may cause it to crack.

Housing Cleaning
Wipe clean with a damp sponge. Dry with a paper towel.

  • NEVER use steel wool, metal scouring pads, or abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the finish.

Replacing the Inner Lamp

  • If you experience issues with your inner light bulb, please contact the customer support department for guidance.
