WARNING
Safety Instructions
At Instant, we want you to feel comfortable using our products. This product
was designed with your safety in mind.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons.
Read all instructions before using and only use this appliance as described in
the in-box materials. Failure to follow these safeguards and instructions may
result in injury and/or property damage and can void your warranty.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Placement
DO place the appliance on a countertop only. Always operate the appliance on a
stable, non-combustible, level surface. DO NOT place the appliance on or close
to a hot gas or electric burner, or a heated oven.
DO NOT use the appliance near water or flame.
WARNING
DO NOT use outdoors. Keep out of direct sunlight.
DO NOT place on anything that may block the vents on the appliance. DO make
sure all parts are dry and free of food debris before use.
General Use
DO NOT touch the appliance’s hot surfaces, or any accessories during or
immediately after cooking because they will be hot. DO use the appliance’s
handles and knobs. DO use oven mitts when removing accessories. DO place hot
accessories on a heatresistant surface or cooking plate. DO NOT cover the
cooking tray or any part of the oven with foil. This will cause overheating of
the oven. DO NOT move the appliance while it is in use. DO NOT allow children
or persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities to operate
this appliance. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near
children and individuals with reduced capabilities. Children should not play
with this appliance. DO NOT use the appliance for anything other than
household use. It is not intended for commercial use. DO NOT leave the
appliance unattended while in use. DO avoid contact with moving parts. Failure
to do so may result in injury. DO NOT use the appliance for more than 60
minutes in a 2-hour period.
Air Frying Cautions
When the air fryer is in operation, hot air is released through the air vents.
Keep your hands and face at a safe distance from the air vents and take
extreme caution when removing hot accessories from the appliance. Failure to
do so may result in injury or
property damage.
WARNING
While cooking, the internal temperature of the appliance reaches several
hundred degrees. To avoid personal injury, never place unprotected hands
inside the appliance until it has cooled to room temperature. DO NOT use a
ceramic-coated or stoneware pot for air frying. DO NOT block the vents on the
air fryer. Leave at least 13 cm of space around the air fryer when in use. DO
NOT place the appliance on a hot stove. DO NOT operate the appliance on or
near combustible materials such as tablecloths and curtains. DO NOT cover the
air vents while the air fryer is in operation. Doing so will prevent even
cooking and may cause damage to the appliance. DO NOT overfill the air fryer.
Overfilling may cause food to contact the heating element, which may result in
fire, property damage, and/or personal injury. DO NOT pour oil into the
cooking container. If needed, spray food lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
Using cooking oil could result in personal injury and/or property damage. DO
use caution with cooking containers made of materials other than metal or
glass. Failure to do so may result in fire, personal injury, and/or property
damage. Should the unit emit black smoke during use, turn the time control
dial to zero and unplug the appliance immediately. Wait for smoking to stop
before opening the door/basket, then clean thoroughly. For further information
refer to ‘Troubleshooting’ in the User Manual. DO use extreme caution when
moving the appliance containing oils or other hot liquids. DO use extreme
caution when removing the tray or disposing of hot grease. DO NOT use this
appliance for deep frying foods.
Accessories
DO use only accessories or attachments authorised by Instant Brands LLC. The
use of parts, accessories or attachments not recommended by the manufacturer
may cause a risk of injury, fire or electric shock. DO NOT use the included
accessories in a microwave, toaster oven, convection or conventional oven, or
on a ceramic cooktop, electric coil, gas range or outdoor grill.
Care and Storage
DO let the appliance cool to room temperature before cleaning or storage. DO
NOT store any materials in the appliance when not in use. DO NOT place any
combustible materials in the appliance, such as paper, cardboard, plastic,
Styrofoam or wood. DO NOT clean the appliance with metal scouring pads or
steel wool. Pieces can break off and touch the electrical parts, causing a
risk of shock, burns or injury.
Power Cord
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from
grabbing, entanglement and tripping. This appliance has an earthed plug. To
reduce the risk of electric shock: ONLY plug the power cord into an earthed
electrical outlet. DO NOT remove earth. DO NOT let the power cord hang over
edges of tables or counters, or touch hot surfaces or open flame, including
the stovetop. DO NOT use belowcounter power outlets. DO NOT use with extension
cords, power converters or adapters, timer switches or separate remote-control
systems.
Electrical Cautions
The appliance contains electrical components that are an electrical shock
hazard. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock
and/or death. To avoid electrical shock:
To disconnect, select Cancel or turn the time dial to zero, then remove plug
from power source. Always unplug when not in use, as well as before adding or
removing parts or accessories, and before cleaning. To unplug, grasp the plug
and pull from the outlet. Never pull from the power cord. DO allow unit to
cool before adding or removing parts or accessories. DO regularly inspect the
appliance and power cord. DO NOT operate the appliance if the power cord or
plug is damaged, or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged
in any manner. DO NOT attempt to dislodge food while the appliance is plugged
into an electrical outlet, as this may cause electric shock, burns or injury.
DO NOT attempt to repair, replace or modify components of the appliance, as
this may cause electric shock, fire or injury, and will void the warranty. DO
NOT tamper with any of the safety mechanisms, as this may result in injury or
property damage. DO NOT immerse power cord, plug or the appliance in water or
other liquid. DO NOT rinse the appliance under tap. DO NOT use the appliance
