WARNING: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact 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 entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power-supply extension cord is used:

1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and:

2. To insert plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into outlet.
3. To disconnect appliance, grasp plug and remove it from outlet.
4. Before each use, inspect the line cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If any are found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced and the line cord replaced. Please return it to an authorized service representative.
5. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place undue stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break.

DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE OR IF THE APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.

5. Slide the tank back into the air fryer.
   Note: Use caution when inserting the tank into the appliance housing without the fryer basket connected inside the tank.
   Warning: Do not touch the fryer basket or tank during and some time after use, as it gets very hot. Only hold the tank by the handle or use oven mitts.

COOKING TIPS

1. Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter preparation time than larger ingredients.
2. For best results of smaller foods such as fries, onion rings and chicken nuggets, remove the fryer basket halfway through preparation time and shake to mix around the food in the basket. This will help to evenly fry the food being prepared.
3. Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your ingredients in the airfryer within a few minutes after you added the oil. Do not fill basket with oil.
4. Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the air fryer.
5. Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the air fryer.
6. For French fries, use 17 ounces of fries at a time for best frying results.
7. This air fryer is great for reheating food. To reheat your food, set the temperature control to 300º Fahrenheit for up to 10 minutes.
