6. Do not use this appliance for purposes other than its intended use.

14. This product is not a deep fryer and should never be filled with oil. If using oil, lightly toss food with oil in a separate bowl before transferring to the tray.
15. Provide adequate ventilation above and on all sides for air circulation. Do not allow the appliance to touch curtains, wall coverings, clothing, dish towels, or other flammable materials during use. Ensure air vents are not covered.
16. This appliance generates heat; take precautions to prevent burns, fire, or damage. Keep hands clear of the immediate area during operation and use grips and handles. Do not put hands or body parts inside the Air Fryer housing while in use or hot.
17. Use caution when opening the Air Fryer as the basket and contents are very hot. Use tongs or protective gloves to remove food.

Operating Instructions

Before First Use

1. Remove all packing materials and stickers. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. WARNING: Never immerse the Air Fryer or its plug in water or other liquids.
2. Remove the basket and tray using the handles. Wash the basket and tray with warm, soapy water. The basket and tray are top-rack dishwasher safe. Warning: Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or scouring pads.
3. Dry thoroughly.

Read all instructions and follow them carefully.

How to Use

1. Prepare the basket and desired food. Insert the tray into the basket using the tray handle. Ensure it is secure and leveled. Note: Using the tray allows for maximum air circulation for even cooking. Warning: Never fill the basket with oil. If using oil, toss food with oil in a separate bowl before adding to the tray.
2. Put food on tray. Refer to the cooking chart for recommended amounts, times, and temperatures.
3. Put the basket into the Air Fryer. Use the basket handle to insert the basket securely.
4. Plug in the Air Fryer. The power indicator light will illuminate. The heating indicator light will turn on when the timer dial is turned past zero. Note: The Air Fryer will not operate if the basket is not fully pushed in.
5. Set desired cooking temperature and time. Adjust the temperature dial (200°F-400°F) and the timer dial (up to 60 minutes).
6. Start cooking. The power and heating indicator lights will illuminate, and the Air Fryer will begin cooking.
7. Check food during cooking. Pull out the basket using the handle. The lights will turn off, but the timer continues. Shake the basket or use tongs to redistribute food for even cooking. The unit will resume cooking automatically when the basket is replaced.
8. Enjoy your air-fried food. The Air Fryer will signal when cooking is complete. Pull out the basket, carefully remove food using tongs or protective gloves. Caution: Basket, tray, and contents will be hot. Place the hot basket on a trivet to cool.
9. Unplug the Air Fryer and let it cool completely before cleaning.
10. Clean the basket and tray after every use.

Cooking Tips

Almost any food cooked in an oven can be air-fried. For best results:

• Cook foods of similar size and thickness for even cooking.
• Smaller pieces cook faster.
• Air fry in small batches to save time and ensure even cooking. Avoid stacking food.
• Most prepackaged foods do not require added oil.
• Frozen appetizers and hors d'oeuvres cook well; arrange in a single layer.
• Shake the basket halfway through cooking or flip food for even cooking, especially if layering.
• Toss fresh foods like fries or vegetables with a small amount of oil for browning and crispiness.
• Pat fresh vegetables dry before tossing with oil and air frying for maximum crispiness.
• Use thick, pasty batters for battered foods. Thin batters may not set properly.
• Coating battered foods in panko or puffed rice and spraying with oil creates crispy, healthier versions.
• Reheat food like pizza at 300°F for up to 10 minutes. Ensure reheated foods reach 165°F.

Cooking Chart

The following chart provides recommended temperatures and times. Adjust based on food amount and desired doneness. Check food sooner for smaller portions.

Note: This table is a guide; adjust times and temperatures as needed. Use caution with hot food. Excess oil from greasy foods will drip into the basket. Empty the basket after every use.

Troubleshooting Guide

Cleaning & Maintenance

• Ensure the Air Fryer is unplugged and cool before cleaning.
• Remove the basket and tray. Wash with warm, soapy water. Warning: Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or scouring pads.
• The basket and tray are top-rack dishwasher safe.
• Gently wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth or paper towel.
• Never immerse the Air Fryer or its plug in water or any other liquid.
• Dry all parts thoroughly before storage.
• Store the Air Fryer in a cool, dry place.
