HOW TO USE YOUR AIR FRYER
1.
Carefully pull out the Drawer Pan (A) from the Main Fryer Body by
pulling forward on the Handle (B).
TIP: Never place food directly into the Drawer Pan (A) without the
Frying Rack (C) inside. In place of using the Frying Rack (C), an
oven-safe plate or bowl (not included) can be placed onto a wire
rack (not included) into the Drawer Pan (A).
CAUTION: Never place anything on top of the Main Body, for this
will block the air flow and reduce the effect of hot air heating.
2.
Place the Frying Rack (C) into the Drawer Pan (A) (figure 3).
3.
Place ingredients onto Frying Rack (C).
TIP: Do not fill the Drawer Pan (A) over the MAX fill position. If cooking food that expands,
make sure the cooked capacity will not exceed the MAX fill position.
4.
Slide Drawer Pan (A) back into the Main Body.
HOW TO PROGRAM FRYING TIME AND TEMPERATURE:
1.
Plug Power Cord (I) into an electrical outlet.
2.
Turn the Temperature Control Knob (F) to the desired temperature and then turn the Timer
Control Knob (G) to the desired time setting (the Timer must be set in order for the unit to
begin heating).
TIP: It is recommended to preheat the air fryer on empty for 3 min. if the appliance is cold or
you can add 3 min to your desired time setting in order to pre-heat. The initial 15 minutes of
use may result in minimal smell and smoke. This is normal and harmless and comes from the
protective substance applied to the heating elements during manufacturing.
3.
The Power Indicator (E) will illuminate.
4.
The Air Fryer will automatically Pause if the Drawer Pan (A) is removed during the cooking
cycle. Once replaced back into the fryer, the unit will continue its cooking cycle.
CAUTION: Do not touch the Drawer Pan (A) during and immediately after use, as it gets very
hot. Only hold the Drawer Pan (A) by the Handle (B).
NOTE: Any excess oil from food will collect at the bottom of the Drawer Pan (A).
DURING THE COOKING/FRYING PROCESS:
1.
Some recipes require stirring/mixing the contents mid-way through cooking (see Cooking
Time Chart on page 9). You can do this in the middle of the cooking process by pulling the
Drawer Pan (A) out from the Main Fryer Body. Shake or stir the contents of the basket using a
non-metallic utensil and then slide Drawer Pan (A) back into the Main Fryer Body.
TIP: If you set the timer to half the required cook time, you will hear the timer indicator when
you have to stir the ingredients. However, this means that you will need to set the timer again
to the remaining cook time after stirring.
2.
The air fryer will resume cooking once the Drawer Pan (A) is closed.
CAUTION: During cooking, the Drawer Pan (A) and Frying Rack (C) will be very hot, only use
the Drawer Pan Handle (B) or oven mitts.
WHEN COOKING/FRYING IS COMPLETE:
1.
When the timer completes its countdown, the timer bell will ring and the air fryer will stop
heating - this signals it is time to remove your food. (Please note that the fan motor will
continue to operate in order to cool down the Drawer Pan (A) and the Frying Rack (C), this will
stop within approximately 60 seconds).
NOTE: You can also switch off the appliance manually by turning the Timer Control Knob (G)
to 0 at any time during the cooking process.
2.
Carefully pull out the Drawer Pan (A) from the Main Fryer Body by pulling forward on the
Drawer Pan Handle (B) and place on a flat, heat resistant surface.
CAUTION: When sliding out the Drawer Pan (A), be careful of hot air and steam. Keep hands
and face away from the opening.
