Warning
Important – Read Before Use
For safety purposes, you should read the instructions carefully before using
the appliance for the first time. Save the instructions for future reference.
The appliance is designed for domestic use and may only be installed and
operated in accordance with these instructions.
-
Do not clean or submerge the unit in water.
-
Do not operate the unit in humid conditions or near gas pipes or naked flame.
-
Check if the stirrer spins normally before use.
-
Keep away from the air filter when the unit is in operation to avoid injuries.
-
The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or individuals lacking in experience or knowledge, unless they are supervised and instructed by
persons responsible for their safety. -
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
-
The surface of the heating elements may produce certain odours when used for the first time. This phenomenon is normal.
-
If oil is splashed onto the heating elements, a hint of burned oil residue may emerge when cooking the next dish. This phenomenon is normal.
-
Oil splashed directly onto the upper heating element shroud may result in discoloration of shroud or heating element.
-
Keep the bottom of the inner pot dry and free of water, to prevent water flowing onto the heating plate and causing risk of short circuit.
-
Do not touch bare metal or glass parts of the machine when it is in operation or risk of burns may result.
-
Do not wipe the inner pot with hard or sharp objects, to avoid damage to the inner pot coating.
-
The machine will automatically calibrate the position of the stirrer so the pot can be closed after power has been connected. Do not try and force the lid closed.
-
It is not recommended to frequently cook congee, soups, and other foods high in liquid content in the Smart Stir Fryer. Large amounts of steam may result in large amounts of starch or detritus, and may affect the operating lifespan of the halogen tube as well as making the apparatus difficult to clean.
-
Do not cook too much food at once. When filling the inner pot with ingrdeients, the total mass of the ingredients should not pass 3/4 the height of the inner pot. When cooking, the cooking oil can be reduced by about half. If you open the lid during cooking, a lid angle of greater than 45 degrees is necessary, in order to ensure on/off of magnetic switch.
Product Structure
Caution:
- Lift the inner pot out of the housing and remove all packaging separating the inner and outer pot before use, including the silicone paddle protector. When transporting the unit, you may protect the stirrer with the enclosed silicone paddle protector.
- The stirrer will automatically adjust position. If power is not connected, forcibly moving the stirring mechanism may have undesirable results. Please do not force the stirrer into motion.
- Do not attempt to clean heating element shroud before it has cooled to room temperature and power cord is removed. Doing so may result in risk of electrical hazard.

Operating Instructions
Warning:
- Do NOT use the Smart Stir Fryer to make soup. Excessive amounts of water and steam may damage the appliance.
- It is NORMAL for the unit to go through a warm-up process of approximately 150 seconds when heating up from cold or room temperatures.

Note:
- Tap the edge of the inner pot with both hands to check it is flush with the heating plate. If the inner pot is not fitted properly, check if there is dirt stuck on the surface of the inner pot or the heating plate.
