 leave the appliance unattended while in use.

• 

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 personal injury and/or 

property damage.
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 (such as 

CorningWare stoneware) for air frying.

• 

DO NOT

 block the vents on the air fryer. Leave at least 5 in / 13 cm 

of space around the air fryer when in use.

• 

DO NOT

 place the appliance on a 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, press Cancel 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.
