Appliance Use

Before First Use

• Clean the appliance before first use (see CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE section).
• Do not place the appliance on a hot surface such as a stove or near the edge of a countertop where it could accidentally fall.
• Find a stable, flat, heat-resistant, and non-slip surface for the appliance.
• The appliance may emit slight smoke or a slight odor during first use. This is normal as the appliance is new and will dissipate with regular use. If desired, operate the appliance for 10 minutes before using it to eliminate odor and smoke.

Using the Air Fryer

Inserting the Frying Basket into the Pan and Air Fryer

1. Step 1: Insert the frying basket into the pan. Ensure the frying basket handle fits into the pan slot and locks correctly. Slide the basket release button cover over the basket release button. (Visual description: A hand is shown inserting a basket into a larger pan.)
2. Step 2: Slide the pan with the frying basket into the main body until it locks. If the pan is not correctly inserted, the screen will not activate, and the air fryer cannot be used. (Visual description: A hand is shown pushing the pan with the basket into the main body of the air fryer.)

Removing the Frying Basket from the Pan

1. Remove the pan with the frying basket and place it on a flat, heat-resistant surface. Never hold it in the air, as hot grease or cooking liquids could splash when unlocking the frying basket.
2. Slide the basket release button cover in the direction of the arrow. Press the basket release button and remove the frying basket from the pan.

Operation

1. Completely unroll the power cord. Plug the power cord into a wall socket. A beep will sound, and the screen will temporarily light up. Then, press the ⏻ button to turn on the air fryer and display the default manual program settings. (Visual description: A hand is shown plugging the air fryer into a wall socket.)
2. Slide the pan with the frying basket out of the air fryer.
3. Place food into the frying basket. Ensure the volume of food does not exceed the MAX mark. (Visual description: Food, resembling fries, is shown being placed into the frying basket.)
4. Slide the pan into the air fryer, ensuring it locks and is properly closed. If the pan is not correctly inserted, the screen will not activate, and the air fryer cannot be used.

To select a preset program or a manual program for the air fryer, press the ☰ button repeatedly to choose the program. The corresponding icon will flash to indicate the current program.

• Press the ▲▼ buttons to increase or decrease the temperature in 5 °C intervals. Hold the ▲ / ▼ buttons to quickly scroll through temperatures, ranging from 80 °C to 200 °C.
• Press the ▲▼ buttons to increase or decrease the timer duration in 1-minute intervals. Hold the ▲ / ▼ buttons to quickly scroll through durations, ranging from 1 minute to 60 minutes.
• To revert to default settings (manual program) during program adjustment, you can hold the ⏻ button to turn off the appliance, then press the ⏻ button again to turn the air fryer back on and restart the adjustment. You can also restart an adjustment by pressing the ☰ button and selecting another program.

• Press the ⏻ button to start the air fryer. The fan icon ?️ will flash (and continue to flash when the fan is running) and the heating icon ? will be continuously displayed. When the air fryer reaches the preset temperature, the heating icon ? will no longer be displayed. It takes approximately 3 minutes for the air fryer to reach the set temperature. You can either place food before preheating and account for the preheating time in the total cooking time, or wait for the air fryer to preheat, then add food to the frying basket and insert it into the air fryer. During cooking, the remaining cooking time will be displayed on the screen.
• Press the ⏻ button at any time to pause cooking. Press this button again to resume cooking.
• To prevent some foods from sticking together and ensure even cooking, you may need to shake the food during cooking. To do this, hold the frying basket handle and gently remove the pan, keeping your face/skin away from any escaping steam. Shake the food, then replace the pan in the main body of the appliance. The cooking program will automatically resume when the pan is reinserted. Avoid shaking food for more than 30 seconds, as the air fryer will then begin to cool down.

• When the cooking time is finished, "END" will appear on the screen, and a beep will sound. Check if the food is cooked. If further cooking is needed, return the food to the air fryer and set the time by adding a few minutes.

• To cancel a cooking program, hold the ⏻ button. The fan icon ?️ and "END" will flash on the screen, then the air fryer will go into standby mode.
• When the food is cooked, remove the pan using the handle. You can remove food with silicone tongs (for delicate foods) or detach the basket from the pan and pour the food onto a plate.
• Once a batch of food has been cooked, you can immediately start cooking a new batch.
• When you have finished using the air fryer, always ensure it is turned off and unplugged to completely disconnect it from the power supply.

Frying Cooking Guide

Frying times are indicative only and should be adjusted according to quantities.

*Shake these foods halfway through cooking.

Tips

• For best results when preparing fresh fries or chips, use potatoes suitable for frying. Rinse cut potatoes in cold water to remove some starch. This will prevent them from sticking during frying. Dry them, then lightly coat them with oil before cooking.
• Do not leave fried food in the frying basket for too long, as residual heat could soften them.
• By cooking food in small batches, you will get crispier and more evenly cooked food. If your food is not crispy enough, try lightly coating it with oil and/or increasing the cooking temperature.
• Oil sprays are an effective way to uniformly apply small amounts of oil to all foods.
• When air frying different types of food, always start with those requiring the lowest temperature.
• If the pan is too heavy to shake, you can remove the frying basket from the pan, then shake the food.
• Some foods, like steaks, will benefit from being turned during the cooking process to ensure uniform cooking.
• Dry marinated foods by patting them with paper towels before air frying to prevent splashing and excessive smoke during cooking.
• Do not pour food into a container when the pan is connected to the frying basket, as oil/grease and cooking juices accumulated in the pan would spill onto the food, making it greasy and soft.
• For foods that need to be shaken, you can set the timer for half the cooking time to alert you when it's time to shake the food. Then reset the timer by setting it to the remaining cooking time.
