Shaking...
To insure even cooking, some foods require “shaking” during the
cooking process. To do this, simply remove the
Outer Basket
and
Fry Basket
from the
Unit
... gently shake the contents as needed
and place back in
Unit
to continue cooking. For heavier foods, you
might want to separate the
Fry Basket
from the
Outer Basket
before shaking. To do this, place the assembled
Outer Basket
and
Fry Basket
on a heat-resistant surface. Move
Sliding Button
Guard
forward to expose
Basket Release Button
. Press the
Basket Release Button
(top photo) and gently lift the
Fry Basket
.
Shake ingredients. Place the
Fry Basket
in the
Outer Basket
and
return it to the
Unit
to finish cooking.
Caution:
The
Outer Basket
will be hot... wear an oven mitt
during this procedure. Never move the
Sliding Button Guard
while
shaking or you may press the
Basket Release Button
accidentally.
Tip:
Set the
Timer
to 1/2 the time needed for the recipe. The
Timer
bell will alert you when it’s time to “shake.”
When you hear the
Timer
bell, the
Preset
preparation time has
elapsed. Pull the
Outer Basket
out of the appliance and place it on
a heat-resistant surface.
To remove ingredients (i.e., fries), place the
Outer Basket
on a
heat-resistant surface. Move
Sliding Button Guard
forward. Press
the
Basket Release Button
(top photo) and lift the
Fry Basket
out of the
Outer Basket
. Turn the
Fry Basket
over and let the
ingredients fall on a plate. Use nonabrasive utensils to remove
larger foods.
Do not turn the
Fry Basket
upside down with the
Outer Basket
still
attached... excess oil that has collected on the bottom of the
Outer
Basket
will leak onto the food.
When a quantity of food is cooked, the
Unit
is instantly ready for
preparing another batch. When the cooking cycle is over, you may
begin use again immediately.
Settings
• The table on the right will help you select the correct temperature and time for best results. As you become
more familiar with the
Power AirFryer XL
TM
cooking process, you may adjust these settings to suit your own
personal tastes.
• Because the
Rapid Hot Air Technology
instantly reheats the air inside the appliance, pulling the
Fry Basket
briefly
out of the appliance during hot air frying barely disturbs the process.
Tips
• Foods that are smaller in size usually require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger ones.
• Large quantities of food only require a slightly longer cooking time than smaller quantities.
• “Shaking” smaller-sized foods halfway through the cooking process assures that all the pieces are fried evenly.
• Adding a bit of vegetable oil to fresh potatoes is suggested for a crispier result. When adding a little oil,
do so just before cooking.
