Operating Instructions
WARNING! This unit should never be used to boil water or heat oil.
NOTE: During first use, the Air Fryer may emit a slight odor. This is normal and will not affect food cooked.
1. Place the Air Fryer on a flat, heat-resistant work area, close to an electrical outlet.
2. Firmly grasp the frying basket handle to open frying basket; then remove from the machine and
place on a flat, clean surface.
3. Place the crisping tray into the base of the frying basket.
4. Arrange food on top of the crisping tray. Do not overfill frying basket with food. To ensure proper
cooking and air circulation, NEVER fill any frying basket more than 2/3 full. When air frying fresh
vegetables, we do not recommend adding more than 1-1/2 cups of food to the frying basket.
5. Fully insert the frying basket into the front of the Air Fryer.
6. Plug cord in the wall outlet.
7. Select air frying temperature from 180°F to 400°F.
8. Turn timer dial to the desired air frying time plus 3 minutes for preheat if the Air Fryer is cold. The
green HEAT ON light and the orange POWER light will illuminate; the Air Fryer will begin heating.
IMPORTANT: The Air Fryer will not heat if the timer dial has not been set or if the frying basket is
not fully closed
9. The green HEAT ON light will illuminate when set temperature is reached.
NOTE: During air frying, the green HEAT ON light will cycle on and off as proper air frying
temperature is maintained.
10. To assure even cooking/browning, open the basket halfway through the frying time and check, turn
or shake foods in the frying basket. Adjust temperature if needed. The timer will continue to count
down when the basket is opened, but the Air Fryer will stop heating until the basket is replaced.
WARNING: Extreme caution must be used when handling the hot frying basket and crisping tray.
Avoid escaping steam from the frying basket and hot food.
CAUTION:
Always use oven mitts when handling the hot air frying basket.
CAUTION:
Hot oil can collect at the base of the drawer. To avoid risk of burns or personal injury,
or to avoid oil from contaminating air fried foods, always use a pair of tongs or a long wooden
spoon to remove the foods from the frying basket. NEVER turn the basket upside down containing
air fried foods.
NOTE: The Air Fryer can be turned OFF at any time by turning the timer dial to 0.
11. One beep will sound when the set air frying time has expired. The Air Fryer will turn OFF
automatically. Both the orange POWER light and the green HEAT ON light will turn off.
12. Shake the frying basket vigorously and check food for browning and doneness. If additional air
frying is needed, adjust temperature if desired, and set timer for 3-minute intervals until fully
cooked.
13. Allow cooked food to rest for 5 to 10 seconds before removing basket from Air Fryer or food from
frying basket.
14. When air frying is finished, remove the basket from the machine and place on a flat, heat resistant
surface.
15. Use tongs or a long fork to remove air fried foods onto a serving plate. Promptly replace the frying
basket into the front of the Air Fryer. Continue with subsequent batches, if any.
16. When all air frying is completed, turn both the temperature control dial and the timer dial to 0 (OFF).
Both the orange POWER light and the green HEAT ON light will turn off.
17. Unplug the Air Fryer when not in use.
