• Remove all packing materials and discard responsibly.
• Ensure all parts are present see Description of Parts above.

• DO NOT remove the silicone feet from the Trivet (6) as these are fitted to hold the Trivet in place and prevent damage to the Fryer Drawer (7).
• Whilst using your Air Fryer for the first time you may notice a little smoke and odour; this is normal and simply the grease used during manufacture and will soon disperse.
