Plug and Cord Instructions

Polarized Plug Instructions

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) for reduced shock risk. It fits into a polarized outlet in only one way. If it doesn't fit, reverse it. If it still doesn't fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug.

Short Cord Instructions

A short power supply cord reduces entanglement and tripping hazards. Extension cords may be used with care:

• The extension cord's electrical rating should be at least that of the appliance. A low rating could cause overheating or fire.
• Arrange the extended cord so it does not drape over countertops or tables where children could pull it or people could trip over it.

Before First Use

• Unpack the appliance and accessories (food basket, trivet). Wash accessories in hot, soapy water, then dry. Wipe the interior cavity with a damp cloth or sponge, then dry with a paper towel. Ensure the cavity is completely dry before operation.
• Position the air fryer on a flat, level, heat-resistant surface, at least 6 inches (15 cm) away from surrounding objects.
• It is recommended to preheat the air fryer for about 20 minutes without food to eliminate manufacturing grease and the "new" appliance smell.
• Ventilate the room during this period. Initial heating may produce slight smoke or odor, which is normal for heating appliances and does not affect safety.

Caution: When moving the air fryer, hold it securely by the base – do not rely on the basket handle.

Operating Instructions

Preparing for Use

• Ensure the trivet is securely placed inside the basket. Use the trivet handle to insert or remove it easily.
• Plug the power cord into a wall socket. The air fryer will beep, and the [On/Off Button] will light up, indicating it's ready.

Caution!

• Do not fill the food basket with oil or any other liquid, as this may cause a fire hazard.
• Never use the air fryer without the basket and trivet in place.
• Keep ingredients within the basket to prevent contact with heating elements. Do not overfill the basket.
• Do not cover the air inlet (top) or outlet (back) while the appliance is in use.
• Do not touch the inside of the appliance while operating.
• Never immerse the unit's housing in water or rinse it under the tap.
