Ensure the surface is level, clean and free of water and other substances. · Do not operate the air fryer on a sink drain board. · Do not place the air fryer on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or where it could touch a heated oven. · Do not operate the air fryer on an inclined surface. Do not move the air fryer while it is switched on. · Do not cover the air inlet or the air outlet while the air fryer is in operation. · Do not fill the cooking pan with oil or any other liquid as the air fryer functions by circulating hot air to cook food. · Never use the cooking pan without the frying rack inserted into the base. · Never touch the inside of the air fryer while it is in operation. · Position the air fryer at a minimum distance of 50cm away from walls, curtains, cloths and other heat sensitive materials when in use. 4 · Always operate the air fryer on a stable and heat resistant surface. Do not use on a cloth covered surface, near curtains or other flammable materials. · Always put the ingredients to be cooked in the cooking pan with the frying rack already inserted. · Never overfill the cooking pan. · Do not place cardboard, plastic, paper or other flammable materials into the air fryer. · Do not cover any external part of the air fryer with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the air fryer. · Do not touch the cooking pan or frying rack for some time after use as they will be very hot. Always use the handle. · Always use extreme caution when removing the cooking pan or disposing hot grease or other hot liquids that may have accumulated in the pan during cooking. · Do not turn the cooking pan upside down with the frying rack still inserted as any excess oil that has collected on the bottom of the cooking pan will leak onto the ingredients. · Be careful of hot steam and air when removing the cooking pan from the air fryer. The cooking pan and the ingredients are hot after operation. Depending on the type of ingredients in the air fryer, steam may escape from the cooking pan during operation. · Extreme caution must be used when the air fryer contains hot food and liquids. Do not move the air fryer during cooking. · Always ensure that the cooking pan and frying rack are thoroughly dried after cleaning and are assembled into position before operating the air fryer. · When using the air fryer, provide sufficient clearance (minimum 50cm) above and on all sides for air circulation. · This air fryer is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system. · While in operation, hot steam may escape from the air outlet on the rear side of the air fryer. Always keep your hands and face at a safe distance from the steam and air outlet. · If dark smoke emits from the air fryer during operation, immediately turn the air fryer off by pressing and holding down the power button for 3 seconds and switch off at the power outlet. Wait for the smoke emission to stop and for the air fryer to cool down before removing the cooking pan from the air fryer. · The temperature of accessible surfaces may be hot when the air fryer is operating and for some time after use. · Do not touch hot surfaces; use insulated oven mitts. · Always wear protective, insulated oven mitts when inserting, removing, or handling items from the air fryer. · Allow the air fryer to cool before handling. · Do not place hands inside the air fryer during operation. · Do not insert over-sized foods into the air fryer as they create risk of fire or electric shock. · Do not use metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials to clean the cooking pan or frying rack as this may damage the non-stick coating. 5 · Do not clean the interior of the air fryer with metal scouring pads as pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts creating a risk of electric shock. · Do not attempt to operate the air fryer by any other method than those described in this book. · Always ensure the air fryer is properly assembled before use. Follow the instructions provided in this book. · Do not place anything on top of the air fryer when in use or when stored. · The air fryer should not be left unattended at any time when in use. · Always ensure the air fryer has cooled, been turned off, switched off at the power outlet, and the cord has been unplugged from the power outlet before attempting to move, disassemble, clean, or store the air fryer. · Do not place the air fryer in direct sunlight.

Please note that due to variations in thickness, size and the moisture content of the foods being cooked, temperature and time should be adjusted to suit. Always ensure that the food is thoroughly cooked to food-safe temperature before consuming.

Peeled, thinly sliced. Footnotes for the Cooking Guide ** When dehydrating, produce drying times can vary. Drying times are affected by the quantity, thickness of the sliced produce and the moisture content of the food itself. (Therefore, estimated drying times have been given in the table above). Do not dehydrate lighter foods like kale, parsley or herbs as the force of the fan may blow them into the fan and heating element which could become a hazard. 13 Tips for Air Frying Hints & Tips · Shaking or turning ingredients at least once during cooking optimises the result and can help prevent uneven cooking. · For a crispier result, lightly coat foods in oil before placing them on the frying rack. · Baking tins (which are not provided) should not be filled more than 3/4 full if the baking ingredients contain rising agents. · Avoid cooking high fat content foods like bacon in the air fryer as they may spit grease over the heating element and fan. · Most snacks that can be cooked in a conventional oven can also be cooked in an air fryer. · Using a heat-resistant utensil such as tongs to turn food instead of shaking may be easier for some food types. · The air fryer cooking pan may fit baking tins up to a maximum size of either a round 20 cm in diameter or a rectangle 12 cm by 17 cm (baking tin not included). WARNING Never place baking tins or other ovenproof dishes or moulds directly in the cooking pan. Always place the baking dish on top of the frying rack inside the cooking pan. Always wear oven mitts when handling the baking tin or other oven-proof dishes or moulds. CAUTION · Never overfill the cooking pan with ingredients. Ensure that the food inserted into the cooking pan fits well, allowing good air flow. · Always wear protective, insulated oven mitts when inserting, removing or handling items from the air fryer. 14 Care, Cleaning and Storage Care and Cleaning Cleaning the air fryer after every use ensures optimal performance every time. 1. Before cleaning, ensure the air fryer is turned OFF, switched off at the power outlet and unplugged from the power outlet. Allow the air fryer to cool completely. Remove the cooking pan to allow the air fryer to cool faster. 2. Soak the frying rack and cooking pan in hot soapy water for approximately 10 minutes before cleaning to loosen food matter. Clean the cooking pan and frying rack with hot soapy water using a non-abrasive, soft scouring pad, sponge, or brush. Rinse well and dry thoroughly. 3. Wipe the inside and outside of the air fryer with a soft damp cloth. Do not place any part of the air fryer in the dishwasher. 4. Dry thoroughly before storing or use. NOTE Do not use metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials to clean the frying rack and cooking pan as they may damage the non-stick coating. NOTE Exposure to cooking oils and cleaning chemicals may cause colour fading and discolouration to the air fryer. If the air fryer is exposed to oils or cleaning chemicals, turn off and unplug the appliance, allow the air fryer to cool and use a damp cloth to clean the surface of the air fryer. Storage 1. When storing the air fryer, switch off and then remove the power plug from the power outlet. Ensure the air fryer is completely cool, clean and dry. 2. Slide the cooking pan with rack into the air fryer and wrap the cord for storing. 3. Do not place heavy objects on top.
