Setup and First Use
- Unpacking: Carefully remove all packaging materials, including any stickers or labels. Ensure all components are present: main unit, air fryer basket, and crisper plate.
- Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wash the air fryer basket and crisper plate thoroughly with hot water, dish soap, and a non-abrasive sponge. Rinse and dry completely. Wipe the interior and exterior of the main unit with a damp cloth.
- Eliminating Initial Odor: Some new appliances may emit a slight odor during the first few uses. To minimize this, place a few lemon slices in the air fryer basket and run the appliance at 350°F (175°C) for 15 minutes. Allow to cool and then clean the basket again.
- Placement: Place the air fryer on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from walls or other appliances to allow for proper air circulation. Ensure there is at least 4 inches (10 cm) of clear space on all sides and above the appliance.
- Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. The appliance is now ready for use.
