3 PRONG PLUG INSTRUCTIONS

For your personal 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 hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3 prong, grounding type, wall receptacle, grounded in accordance with 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.
• The appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set or extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

BEFORE THE FIRST USE

• Unpack the appliance and accessories and 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 in 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, putting the thermostat on its maximum temperature setting (500 °F).

USING YOUR KALORIK MAXX AIR FRYER OVEN

Once your Kalorik MAXX Flex Trio is on and ready for use:

To select a preset, tap the corresponding icon and adjust time and temp if needed.

Got your time and temp set? Press Start/Stop to begin the cooking process. “PRE” will show to note that the machine is pre-heating until the chosen temperature has been reached.

Need to adjust? Change time or temperature settings with ease at any point during the cooking process. All you need to do is press the plus and minus or up and down arrows until desired time or temperature is set.

The unit will automatically adjust to the new time and/or temperature after 3 seconds.

All done? MAXX is equipped with both an automatic and manual stopping function.

In automatic stop, once the cooking time has elapsed, MAXX will beep and enter “Off” mode (display will show “OFF OFF”).

The inner fan will continue to run for 2 minutes to help the unit cool down if the selected mode required the use of the fan. All lights other than “ON/OFF” will then turn off for standby mode.

To turn off MAXX manually, press START/STOP button for 3 seconds and the machine will enter “Off” mode as described above.

Note:

• Unless it is in cooking mode, the unit will turn off after 15 seconds without operation.

Tips

• When setting up the Maxx Air fryer oven, always make sure the sliding crumb tray is inserted prior to starting your cooking process. Rinse and clean the sliding crumb tray after every use.
• When cooking foods that may drip crumbs or grease during the cooking process, make sure to place the baking/drip pan on the lowest slot. This will help maintain the unit as clean as possible and protect the lower heating elements.
• To change the temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius, long press the up arrow (△) and minus (-) at the same time for 3 seconds. To change it back repeat the same process.
• To MUTE your Air Fryer Oven, long press the down arrow (▽) and plus (+) at the same time for 3 seconds. To unmute, repeat the same process.

Using the Rotisserie Function and Rotisserie Spit and forks

• Only to be used with the full cavity.

• Rotisserie function recommended to use with the Roast preset.

• Insert the rotisserie spit through the center of the food lengthwise.

• Slide the forks onto each side of the spit and secure them in place by tightening the screws provided. Make sure the forks are securely inserted and food is centered on the spit.

• Use the rotisserie handle to lift the rotisserie rod. The hooks of the rotisserie handle should be placed under the grooves on both sides of the rod. Make sure the long end of the rod is on the right side of the handle, and the short-indented side is on the left side of the handle.
  Open the oven doors. Slide the accessory in the cavity. Insert the right side (long end) of the rod in the rotisserie spit support. Then, place the left side (short, indented end of the rod) on the left hook inside the cavity.

• Select the preset and tap the Start button. Tap the rotisserie icon to start the motor.
  CAUTION: Rotisserie accessories are very sharp and will likely get very hot during the cooking process. Be careful and use oven mitts to avoid personal injury.

WARNING: Place all ingredients on the racks, rotisserie spit or basket in a way to prevent any contact with the appliance’s heating elements. Do not overfill.

Notes:

• Although oil is not necessary, a small portion of oil can be sprayed or brushed on the food before air frying. Make sure to distribute oil evenly over the food.
• Some foods release water or oil when cooking. When cooking large quantities for an extended period, condensation may build up, which could leave moisture on your countertop.
• Use the baking tray to catch water or oil when dripping occurs.

• Food gets cooked quickly during broil, it is best to watch over food to not overcook.·
• Do not use glass oven dishes to broil.·
• CAUTION: Aluminum foil is not recommended for covering the rack. If covered, the foil prevents the fat from dripping into the drip tray. Grease will accumulate on the foil surface and may catchfire.

Pizza| Recommended for fresh or frozen pizza.|

• Rotate pizza 180° halfway through cooking for even results.

Roast| Roasting can be used to enhance flavor through caramelization and browning on the surface, leaving food moist and juicy onthe inside.|

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Unplug the appliance from the outlet and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
• Make sure to clean the appliance after each use! Cleaning regularly prevents the accumulation of grease and helps avoid unpleasant smells.
• Do not immerse the unit in water or wash under running water.
• Make sure to hand wash with warm water and soap.
