Quick Start Guide
See owner's manual for complete instructions and important safety information before using this product.
Getting Started
Step 1: Initial Preheat (Air Fry Function)
Before cooking food for the first time, preheat the appliance by operating the "Air Fry" function for at least 3 minutes. This allows the manufacturer's protective coating of oil to burn off. The smell produced by this step is normal.
Visual: Hand turning a control knob on the appliance panel.
Step 2: Prepare for Cooking
Open the appliance door. For Air Fry function, place the Baking Pan on the Glass Tray or on the Air Fry Rack. The Air Fry Rack can be flipped to adjust its position relative to the top heating element. For Microwave function, place your microwave-safe food container or chosen cooking accessory on the Glass Tray.

You can adjust the cooking time by pressing the "Time" button and turning the Control Knob, or adjust the cooking temperature/power level by pressing the "Temp" button and turning the Control Knob. Press the Control Knob to confirm your settings and begin the cooking process.
