CREATE Air Fryer Mist User Manual

1. Introduction and Overview

The CREATE Air Fryer Mist is designed to provide a healthier alternative to traditional frying, allowing you to prepare a wide variety of foods with little to no oil. This appliance utilizes hot air circulation to achieve crispy results, similar to deep-frying, but in a clean, healthy, and smoke-free manner. Its innovative steam release function ensures that certain dishes, such as chicken, vegetables, or meat, remain juicy and tender while still achieving a desirable texture.

Featuring a generous 4.2-liter capacity, this air fryer is ideal for preparing 5 to 6 portions, making it suitable for families. The transparent glass bowl allows for easy monitoring of the cooking process without interrupting the cycle, preventing heat loss. With 6 preset programs and intuitive time and temperature controls via an LCD display, cooking your favorite meals is simple and convenient.

2. Safety Instructions

Please read all safety instructions carefully before using the appliance to prevent personal injury or damage to the product.

• Always place the air fryer on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from walls or other appliances to ensure proper ventilation.
• Do not immerse the main unit, cord, or plug in water or any other liquid.
• Ensure the voltage indicated on the appliance matches your local power supply before connecting.

4. Setup

Before first use, follow these steps:

2. Clean Components: Wash the glass bowl and frying basket thoroughly with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry completely. Wipe the main unit with a damp cloth.
3. Placement: Place the air fryer on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface. Ensure there is at least 10 cm (4 inches) of clear space around the back and sides of the unit for proper air circulation.
4. Assemble: Insert the frying basket into the glass bowl, then slide the assembled glass bowl into the main unit until it clicks securely into place.
5. Fill Water Tank (Optional for Steam Function): If you plan to use the steam function, fill the water tank located on top of the unit with distilled or filtered water. Do not exceed the maximum fill line.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Basic Operation

1. Connect Power: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. The control panel will illuminate.
2. Preheat (Recommended): For best results, preheat the air fryer for 3-5 minutes at the desired cooking temperature.
3. Load Food: Carefully pull out the glass bowl by its handle. Place your food into the frying basket. Do not overfill.
4. Insert Bowl: Slide the glass bowl back into the main unit until it is securely closed.
5. Set Time and Temperature: Use the touch controls on the LCD display to adjust the cooking time and temperature according to your recipe.
6. Start Cooking: Press the Start/Pause button to begin the cooking cycle.
7. Shake/Flip Food (Optional): For even cooking, especially with fries or smaller items, pull out the glass bowl halfway through the cooking time, shake the basket, and then reinsert it. The air fryer will resume cooking automatically.
8. Finish Cooking: The air fryer will beep when the cooking time is complete. Carefully remove the glass bowl and transfer the cooked food to a serving dish.

5.2 Using Preset Programs

The air fryer comes with 6 automatic preset programs for common dishes. To use a preset program:

1. Place food in the basket.
2. On the control panel, select the desired preset icon (e.g., fries, chicken, vegetables). The air fryer will automatically set the optimal time and temperature for that program.
3. Press Start/Pause to begin.

5.3 Steam Release Function

The steam release function helps to keep food moist and tender. This function is automatically integrated into certain preset programs (e.g., chicken, vegetables, meat) or can be manually activated if the water tank is filled.

• Ensure the water tank is filled before starting a program that utilizes steam.
• When a steam-enabled program is selected, the air fryer will automatically release steam at optimal intervals to ensure juicy results.
• You may see steam escaping from the unit during operation, which is normal.

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

1. Unplug and Cool Down: Always unplug the air fryer from the power outlet and allow it to cool down completely before cleaning.
