Special Cord Set Instructions: A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks from entanglement or tripping. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be at least as great as the appliance's rating. The longer cord should be arranged so it does not drape over the countertop or tabletop, where it can be tripped over or pulled on by children.

Notice: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) for safety. It fits in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully, reverse it. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

For Household Use Only. Not Intended for Commercial Use.

Cleaning and Maintenance

1. Unplug the Air Fryer Countertop Oven and allow it to cool completely before cleaning. Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they will damage the finish. Wipe the exterior with a clean, damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Apply cleaning agent to a cloth, not directly onto the oven. Avoid excessive pressure on the control panel area to prevent text removal.
2. To clean interior walls and bottom (after removing the Crumb Tray), use a damp soapy cloth or sponge. Never use harsh abrasives, corrosive products, or oven cleaner sprays, as they can damage the oven surface. Never use steel wool pads on the oven or accessories.
3. The Oven Rack, Baking/Drip Pan, Air Fryer Basket, and Crumb Tray should be hand-washed in hot, sudsy water or with a nylon scouring pad or brush. These parts are not dishwasher safe.
4. Always clean the Crumb Tray after each use. Excess food particles can cause smoking and are difficult to remove. Soak the Crumb Tray in hot, sudsy water or use nonabrasive cleaners for baked-on grease or burnt food. Never operate the oven without the Crumb Tray in place.
5. Clean the top interior of the oven to remove excess grease that may accumulate after cooking greasy foods, to prevent smoking during subsequent uses.
