Dual Basket Functionality:
The InnovSync BAF-810 allows for flexible cooking with its two independent baskets.

Preheating:
For optimal results, especially for crispy foods, it is recommended to preheat the air fryer. If a recipe calls for a specific cooking time and temperature, ensure the air fryer reaches that temperature before adding food. This may require adding a few extra minutes to the overall cooking process.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Appliance does not turn on. | Not plugged in; power outlet malfunction. | Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. |
| Food is not crispy. | Insufficient preheating; baskets overcrowded; incorrect temperature/time. | Preheat the air fryer before adding food. Do not overcrowd baskets; cook in batches if necessary. Adjust temperature or cooking time as needed. Ensure the "Shake Reminder" is followed. |
| White smoke coming from the appliance. | Grease residue from previous use; high-fat food. | Clean the baskets and interior thoroughly after each use. For high-fat foods, drain excess fat during cooking. |
| Food is unevenly cooked. | Baskets not shaken or food not flipped. | Shake the baskets or flip food halfway through the cooking process, especially for smaller items. |
