Setup and First Use

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the air fryer and all accessories from the packaging. Dispose of packaging materials responsibly.
2. Cleaning: Before first use, wipe the exterior of the air fryer with a damp cloth. Wash the cooking baskets and crisper trays with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
3. Placement: Place the air fryer on a stable, heat-resistant, and level surface. Ensure there is at least 10 cm of clear space around the back and sides of the appliance for proper ventilation. Do not place it directly against a wall or under cabinets.
4. Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.
5. Initial Run (Optional but Recommended): For the first use, it is recommended to run the air fryer empty for about 10-15 minutes at 200°C (390°F) to eliminate any manufacturing odors. A slight odor may be present, which is normal and will dissipate.

1. Place food into the cooking baskets. Do not overfill.
2. Slide the baskets firmly back into the air fryer.
3. Press the Power button to turn on the display.
4. Select a pre-set cooking function or manually adjust temperature and time using the control panel.
5. Press the Start/Pause button to begin cooking.
6. Shake or flip food halfway through cooking for even results, if necessary.

Smart Finish Dual Baskets:

The Smart Finish function allows you to cook two different foods at different temperatures and times, ensuring both are ready simultaneously.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your air fryer.

1. Unplug and Cool: Always unplug the air fryer from the power outlet and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Baskets and Trays: The non-stick cooking baskets and crisper trays are dishwasher safe, but hand washing with warm, soapy water is recommended to preserve the non-stick coating. Use a non-abrasive sponge.
3. Interior: Wipe the interior of the air fryer with a damp cloth. For stubborn residue, use a mild detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners or metal scouring pads.
