Getting Started
Initial Test Run
Do you
have
to do the test run? No — but getting to know the ins and outs of your Instant™
Vortex™ Plus Air Fryer Oven prepares you for success in the kitchen! Take a few minutes to
get to know how this baby works.
Stage 1: Setting up the air fryer oven
for cooking
This section does not cover Rotisserie

for details.
1. Open the oven door.
Place the drip pan on the bottom of
the cooking chamber.
Close the door.
2. Connect the power cord to a 220-240V
power source.
The air fryer oven is in standby mode
and the display shows

).
5. Touch
Start
to begin!
The display shows
On
while the air
fryer oven preheats.
The first few times you use your air fryer
oven you may notice a strong plastic
smell. This is normal, non-toxic, and
goes away quickly.
Stage 2: "Cooking" (...but not really, this is
just a test!)
1. When the air fryer oven reaches the
perfect temperature, the display shows
Add Food
.
Do not add food during the initial
test run.
2. Open the oven door.
Carefully insert both cooking trays
into the preheated cooking chamber.
Close the oven door.
The display alternates to show the
cooking time and temperature.
3. Part way through cooking, the display
shows
turn Food
.
Wait 10 seconds for the program to
resume automatically, or, open and
close the oven door to pause and
resume the program manually.
4. The display counts down the last
minute of cooking in seconds.
When the Smart Program completes,
the display shows
End
and the fan
blows for a little while to help cool
the air fryer oven.
5. Touch
Cancel
to return to standby
mode and start cooking for real!
If you forget this last step, the air fryer
oven will beep to remind you about it
after 5, 30, and 60 minutes.
