IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. Read all instructions.
2. Check that your mains’ voltage corresponds to that stated on the appliance.
3. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
4. To protect against electrical shock, fire, or personal injury, do not immerse cord, plugs, or the appliance in water or other liquid.
5. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
6. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow it to cool before putting on or taking off parts.

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.

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 objects.
• 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 on steak function, putting the thermostat on its maximum temperature setting (500 °F).
• Once you plug in the unit, the Play / Pause button will turn on for one minute to indicate it is plugged in and then turn off.

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.

*Using the Rotisserie Spit
**

• 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.
• 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.

USING YOUR PROBE

To use your Temperature Smart Food Probe:

• Plug it in. The button for the probe will turn on once it detects that it’s been plugged in.
• Not all Presets are compatible with the probe so make sure to check the list below.
• The probe has 2 ways of working. First, as a stand-alone temperature probe where it will show you the real time temperature. Second, while actively cooking it can be used as a smart sensor to cook based on internal temperature.
• To use it as a stand-alone temperature probe, insert the probe into the thickest part of the food and press the probe button. The screen will show the real time temperature of the probe.
• To use as a smart sensor probe, program your machine with the preset and internal temperature desired and select play/pause button. The unit will cook food based on the internal temperature. All the presets that use the probe function are defaulted to cook to 165°F which is the safe internal temperature approved by the FDA. Please note that since this mode will cook based on internal temperature, time will not be available to adjust.

·         For best results, preheat the oven at least 5 minutes at the desired temperature.
·         Recommended accessories: baking rack and/or backing tray.

Broil

| Used for meats such as beef, chicken, or pork. Also used for top browning casseroles and gratins.| ·         Preheat the oven for 5 minutes.
·         For best results, use the top slot.
·         This function usually requires shorter cooking time.
·         Food gets cooked quickly during broil, it is best to watch over food to not overcook.
·         Do not use glass oven dishes to broil.
·         Recommended accessories: air rack in top slot and baking tray in lower slot to catch grease drippings.
·         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 catch fire.
Pizza| Recommended for fresh or frozen pizza.| ·         Preheat oven for 10 minutes.
·         Recommended accessory: air rack on level 2 position for even cooking
·         Rotate pizza 180° halfway through cooking for even results.
Proof| Proofing can be used to prepare bread or pizza dough.| ·         Dough is usually ready when it appears double in size. Check regularly when cooking.
·         Allow dough to complete at least one rise at room temperature.
| | ·         Recommended accessory: air rack with proofing dish on top.
---|---|---
Roast| Roasting can be used to enhance flavor through caramelization and browning on the surface, leaving food moist and juicy on the inside.| · Preheat oven for 10 minutes.
·         Roasting can get done quicker so it is suggested to check on food before time has ended.
·         Used for larger meats and vegetables.
·         Recommended accessory: baking tray.
Toast| Use the toast function to toast bread to perfection: crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside.| ·         Preheat oven for 10 minutes.
·         For best results, set food on the center of the rack spaced out evenly.
·         If toast is lighter than desired, place back inside oven and add more time by using the selector dial.
·         Recommended accessory: air rack on level 2

Food| Notes:
---|---
**** Chicken breast| Place baking / drip tray on the lowest level to catch falling grease and juices. Spray air frying basket with cooking oil before placing breasts. Maximum recommended capacity is 3, 10 oz breasts. Add an additional 1-2 minutes for each additional oz/breast. Remember to flip halfway through the cooking process.

**** Chicken tenderloins

| Place baking / drip tray on the lowest level to catch any falling juices or breading (if marinated). Spray air frying basket with cooking oil before placing tenderloins on the basket. Add an additional 1-2 minutes for each additional oz. Maximum recommended capacity is 4 bone-in chicken thighs. Flip halfway through the cooking process.

Chicken thighs (bone-in)

| Place baking / drip tray on the lowest level to catch falling grease and juices. Add an additional 1-2 minutes for each additional oz. Maximum recommended capacity is 4 bone-in chicken thighs (no drumstick attached). Flip halfway through the cooking process.

Chicken wings (fresh)

| Place baking / drip tray on the lowest level to catch falling grease and juices. Can place last few minutes, or an additional 2 minutes, on 4th (FAST AIR FRY) level if planning to glaze and get crispy wings. Max recommended amount is 8 whole wings.
**** Fish| Recommended to spray basket with non-stick cooking spray. Fish should be opaque once cooked through.

**** Pork loin

| Place baking / drip tray on the lowest level to catch falling grease and juices. Add an additional 2-3 minutes for each additional oz.

Tofu

| For drained, extra-firm tofu. Drain overnight if necessary, to ensure the crispiest results. Flip halfway through cooking time.
---|---
**** Meatloaf (Beef)| For a freeform loaf: Recommended to wrap loosely in tinfoil to avoid excessive browning in Air Fry function. For a loaf in a pan: recommended bake function. You can cover the pan loosely in tinfoil to avoid excessive browning and uncover in the last 5-10 minutes to help crisp up the top. Recipes will vary.
** Baked potato| No need to wrap with foil, but poking holes with a fork will provide best results, as well as covering outside with a little bit of oil to help skin crisp up.
Mac and cheese (baked)| Assumes cooked macaroni, only used for finishing off the recipe as in a baked mac and cheese recipe. This is good for adding a nice broil to your mac and cheese and help the cheese melt. For less browning, cover tightly with foil.
Grilled cheese| Butter outside of the bread and flip halfway through cooking time. Try to avoid going near the sides of the baking pan as it may lead to unwanted marks on the bread.
**** Frozen pizza (thin crust)| Rotate the air rack 180° halfway through the cooking time to ensure even cooking. Pizza should be ready when all the cheese is melty, and crust is warm.

Frozen pizza (thick crust)

| Rotate the air rack 180° halfway through the cooking time to ensure even cooking. Pizza should be ready when all the cheese is melty, and crust is warm.
**** Frozen fish sticks| Shake the fish sticks halfway through cooking time for maximum crispiness. No preheating necessary.
Frozen chicken nuggets| Shake the nuggets halfway through cooking time for maximum crispiness. No preheating necessary.

Frozen mozzarella sticks

| Shake the mozzarella sticks halfway through cooking time to ensure maximum crispiness. Use baking pan to prevent cheese drippings. Careful not to overcook, as it may cause cheese to leak.

Chocolate chip cookies

| Rotate baking pan 180° halfway through the cooking time to ensure even cooking. Turning the pan upside down and placing it on a higher level helps to give the cookies a little more distance from the heating element to ensure a more uniform heating.

Cooking times will vary with different conditions such as size, quantity, initial temperature, and preparation used. These are meant to serve as basic cooking guidelines to help you get the most out of your Kalorik MAXX air fryer oven. Additional notes for each food are found on the next page. Most recipes, unless otherwise indicated, require either to rotate, flip, or turn food halfway through the cooking process to provide more even results. If cooking chicken breasts, chicken cutlets or single chicken pieces, use the Air Fry preset and adjust cooking time and temperature as needed. Chicken is done when the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Internal temperatures as recommended by FDA, other doneness standards are indicative only.

To use your MAXX as a dehydrator: Place the Air frying basket in the 4th level for best air flow. Additional time will lead to crispier results. Times will vary depending on initial thickness. We recommend checking the doneness of your dehydrated foods at the initial cooking time indicated and adding afterwards as needed when dehydrating a type of food for the first time.
*Accessories vary by model.
