Know Your Air Fryer

Before Your First Use

1. Unpack the Air Fryer and remove all packaging materials. Clean the Air Fryer according to the Care & Cleaning section of this manual.

2. We recommend performing a trial run of your Air Fryer to eliminate any protective substance from the heating elements. Conduct the trial run in a well-ventilated area as a small amount of smoke and odor may be detected. This is normal and should be expected. Follow the procedure below for the trial run.

3. Place Air Fryer on a stable, level surface.

4. Place Air Frying Rack in the Pan and insert into Housing.
   Note: This appliance is rated 1,700 watts and should be the only appliance operating on the circuit to avoid tripping your circuit breaker. Always ensure that your Timer/Power Knob is set to 0 (off) and your Temperature Knob is set to Off before plugging into the wall outlet

5. Plug the Air Fryer into the wall outlet.

6. Set the Temperature Dial to 400°F and the Timer Knob to 20 minutes.

7. Your trial run is complete once the set time has elapsed.

Using Your Air Fryer

Caution:
This Air Fryer works by circulating hot air via a convection fan. Do not fill the Pan with oil or frying fat.

1. Place the appliance on a flat, stable, level, heat-resistant surface.

2. Remove the Pan from the Housing by pulling the Handle towards you.

3. Place your ingredients on the Air Frying Rack in the Pan.
   Note: Never use the Pan without the Air Frying Rack in place.

4. Place the Pan back into the Housing until it is completely flush with the Housing. If the Pan is not fully engaged into the Housing the Air Fryer will not turn on.
   Note: This appliance is rated 1,700 watts and should be the only appliance operating on the circuit to avoid tripping your circuit breaker. Always ensure that your Timer/Power Knob is set to 0 (off) and your Temperature Knob is set to Off before plugging into the wall outlet.

5. Plug the Air Fryer into the wall outlet.

6. Turn the Temperature Knob to the desired temperature.

7. Turn the Timer Knob to the desired cooking time. The Power Indicator Light will illuminate and remain lit while Timer is engaged. The Heat Indicator Light will illuminate and will cycle on and off during cooking to ensure the set temperature is maintained. For recipe times greater than 60 minutes, reset the Timer Knob once the set time has elapsed.

8. The Timer Knob will automatically turn the appliance off when the set time has elapsed. You can manually turn the appliance off by turning the

9. Timer Knob counter-clockwise to the 0 (off) position.

10. Some food types require rotating halfway through the cooking cycle, while other items such as French fries require shaking the Pan. See the Air Fryer Cooking Chart in this manual for recommended temperature, cooking times and method.
    When the Timer has elapsed the signal bell will ring and the Air Fryer will turn off. Unplug the Air Fryer from the wall outlet. Remove the Pan from the Housing and place it on a heat-resistant surface such as a trivet. We recommended using tongs or other kitchen utensils to remove the food from the Pan.

Caution:
Both the Pan and Air Frying Rack are very hot after cooking, use caution when handling to avoid a burn injury, always use potholders or oven mitts.
When cooking foods greater than 3lbs lift the Pan by the Handle and support the Pan on the rear using your other hand. Always use potholders or oven mitts when handling the hot Pan.

Care & Cleaning

Your Air Fryer should be cleaned after each use. Residual food particles and grease can cause the Air Fryer to smoke excessively if not properly cleaned.
Turn the Timer Knob to the 0 (off) position and unplug from wall outlet. Allow all parts to completely cool before cleaning.

Pan and Air Frying Rack
No parts of the Air Fryer are dishwasher safe. Please follow the below cleaning instructions:
To avoid damaging the nonstick surfaces do not use metal utensils. Only use nylon or wooden utensils.
Remove the Air Frying Rack from the Pan. The Pan and Air Frying Rack are nonstick coated to allow for easier release of food residue. Do not clean with metal scouring pads as pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electric shock. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Wash the Pan and Air Frying Rack with warm soapy water using a sponge or cleaning cloth. If food residue is hard to remove from Pan or Air Frying Rack, soak them for 10 minutes in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry parts thoroughly before reassembling and storing.

Housing, Cord, and Plug
These parts should never be immersed in water or any other liquid. Only wipe these parts using a damp cloth then dry thoroughly.

Air Fryer Cooking Chart

Cooking times in the chart below represent total cooking time. If a cooking method is recommended for the ingredient it should be done half-way through the times below.
The cooking chart provides general guidelines and can be adjusted to suit your own personal taste. When cooking foods such as fresh potatoes we recommend spraying the food with an oil mister to give extra crispiness. Do not spray the food until you are ready to place the Pan in the Housing.
Never add oil or fat to the Pan for shallow or deep frying. This Air Fryer is designed to cook via convection air. Placing oil into the Pan can cause splattering of oil into the heating elements and poses a fire risk.
