USING YOUR AIR FRYER

Preheating

We recommend preheating before placing food into the air fryer unless your air fryer is already hot. Food will not cook thoroughly without preheating.

1. Plug in. Press to turn on the air fryer.
2. Press Preheat. The display will show “400°F’ and “5 MIN.
3. Optionally, press the + or – buttons to change the temperature. The time will adjust automatically.
4. Press ►II to begin preheating.
5. When preheating is done, the air fryer will beep 3 times. The display will show the set preheat temperature. [Figure 3.1]

Note: If no buttons are pressed for 3 minutes, the air fryer will clear all settings and go into standby.

Air Frying

Note

• Do not place anything on top of your air fryer. This will disrupt airflow and cause poor air frying results. [Figure 3.21]
• An air fryer is not a deep fryer. Do not fill the baskets with oil, frying fat, or any liquid.
• When taking the baskets out of the air fryer, be careful of hot steam, and do not press the basket release button.

Air Frying

1.  Preheat your air fryer (see 11).
2. When your air fryer displays “READY”, add food to the baskets.
3. Select a preset cooking program (see 14).
   Note: Presets are programmed with an ideal time and temperature for cooking certain foods. You can also set a custom time and temperature without choosing a preset.
4. Optionally, customize the temperature and time and add a Shake Reminder. You can do this anytime during cooking.
   • Press Temp/Time to change temperature or time. The temperature or time will blink on the display.
   • Press the + or – buttons to change the temperature (170°-400°F / 77°-204°C) or time (1-60 minutes).
     Note:
   • To rapidly increase or decrease time or temperature, press and hold the + or – buttons.
   • If you do not press Tempi Time, then pressing or – will automatically change the temperature.
   • Press SHAKE to add or remove a Shake Reminder during cooking.
5. Press ►II to begin air frying.
6. When the Shake Reminder is turned on, it will appear halfway through cooking time. The air fryer will beep 5 times, and ((SHAKE)) will blink on the display.
   • Take the baskets out of the air fryer, being careful of the hot steam. The air fryer will pause cooking automatically, and the display will turn off until the Baskets are replaced.
   • Shake or flip the food. Be careful not to press the basket release button.
   • Put the baskets back into the air fryer.
     Note: See Shaking Food (page 15).

8. Optionally, press Keep Warm. Press the + or – buttons to change the time (1-60 minutes).
9. Take the baskets out of the air fryer, being careful of the hot steam.
10. Remove the inner basket from the outer basket to serve food. When separating baskets:
    • Make sure the baskets are resting on a flat surface.
    • Watch for hot oil or fat collected in the outer basket. To avoid splashing, drain the oil before replacing the inner basket. [Figure 3.3]
11. Allow to cool before cleaning.

Preset Settings

Using a preset is the easiest way to air fry. Presets are programmed with an ideal time and temperature for cooking certain foods.

• You can customize a preset’s time (1-60 minutes), temperature (170°-400°F I 77°-204°C), and Shake Reminder, unless noted.
• To save a preset:
  1. Choose a preset and adjust the time and temperature. Optionally, add or remove the Shake Reminder by pressing SHAKE.
  2. Press and hold the preset icon until the air fryer beeps 1 time.
• To reset a preset:
  • Without making changes, press and hold both the preset icon and the Temp/Time icon for 3 seconds until the air fryer beeps 1 time.
• To reset all presets:
  • Press and hold both + and – for 3 seconds until the air fryer beeps 1 time.

Results may vary. Check out our Reference Guide and Recipe Book for a guide to customizing presets for perfect results.

Cooking Guide

Overfilling

• If the basket is overfilled, food will cook unevenly.
• Food should not be placed over the “MAX” line of the inner basket. [Figure 3.4] Do not pack in food.

Using Oil

• Adding a small amount of oil to your food will make it crispier. Use no more than 2 US tbsp / 30 mL of oil.
• Oil sprays are excellent for applying small amounts of oil evenly to all food items.

Food Tips

• You can air fry any frozen foods or goods that can be baked in an oven.
• To make cakes, hand pies, or any food with filling or batter, place food in a heat-safe container before placing in the baskets.
• Air frying high-fat foods will cause fat to drip to the bottom of the baskets. To avoid excess smoke while cooking, pour out fat drippings after cooking.
• Liquid-marinated foods create splatter and excess smoke. Pat these foods dry before air frying.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

1. Turn off and unplug the air fryer. Allow it to cool completely before cleaning. Pull out the baskets for faster cooling.
2. Wipe the outside of the air fryer with a moist cloth, if necessary.
3. The baskets are dishwasher safe. You can also wash the baskets with hot, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge. Soak if necessary.
   Note: The baskets have a nonstick coating. Avoid using metal utensils and abrasive cleaning materials.
4. For stubborn grease:
   • In a small bowl, mix 2 US tbsp / 30 mL of baking soda and 1 US tbsp / 15 mL of water to form a spreadable paste.
   • Use a sponge to spread the paste on the baskets and scrub. Let the baskets sit for 15 minutes before rinsing.
   • Wash baskets with soap and water before using.
5. Clean the inside of the air fryer with a slightly moist, non-abrasive sponge or cloth. Do not immerse in water. [Figure 4.11 If needed, clean the heating coil to remove food debris.
6. Dry before using.
   Note: Make sure the heating coil is completely dry before turning on the air fryer.
