Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the air fryer and all accessories from the packaging. Retain packaging for future storage or transport.
2. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wipe the exterior of the appliance with a damp cloth. Wash all removable parts (cooking basket, trays, grill rack) with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
3. Placement: Place the air fryer on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface. Ensure there is at least 6 inches (15 cm) of clear space on all sides and above the appliance to allow for proper air circulation. Do not place it directly against a wall or under cabinets.
4. Power Connection: Ensure the voltage of your power outlet matches the voltage specified on the appliance's rating label (110 Volts). Plug the power cord into a grounded wall outlet.
5. First Use (Burn-in): It is recommended to run the air fryer empty for about 10-15 minutes at 350°F (175°C) before cooking food for the first time. This helps to burn off any manufacturing residues and eliminate initial odors. A slight odor or smoke may be present during this process; this is normal. Ensure the area is well-ventilated.
