Setup
Unpacking and Initial Cleaning

- Wash the air fryer basket and crisper plate thoroughly with hot water, dish soap, and a non-abrasive sponge.
- Wipe the inside and outside of the main unit with a damp cloth.

First Use (Burn-Off)
It is recommended to run the air fryer empty for about 10-15 minutes on its highest temperature setting (400°F / 200°C) during the first use. This helps to burn off any manufacturing residues and eliminate initial odors. A slight smell or smoke is normal during this process.

Cooking Tips
- Preheating: For best results, preheat the air fryer for 3-5 minutes before adding food.
- Shaking/Flipping: For even browning, shake the basket or flip food halfway through the cooking time, especially for smaller items like fries or wings.
- Oil Usage: A small amount of oil (1-2 tablespoons) can enhance crispiness for some foods, but is often not necessary. The air fryer uses up to 95% less oil than traditional deep frying.
