Operating Instructions
WARNING! This unit should never be used to boil water or heat oil.
NOTE: During rst use, the air fryer may emit a slight odour. This is
normal and will not aect food cooked.

NEVER ll any frying basket more than 2/3 full. When air frying
fresh vegetables, we do not recommend adding more than 1-11/2
cups of food to the frying basket.

count down when the basket is opened, but the air fryer will stop
heating until the basket is replaced.
WARNING: Extreme caution must be used when handling the hot
frying basket and crisping tray.
Avoid escaping steam from the frying basket and hot food.
CAUTION: Hot oil can collect at the base of the drawer. To avoid
risk of burns or personal injury, or to avoid oil from contaminating
air fried foods, always use a pair of tongs or a long wooden spoon
to remove the foods from the frying basket. NEVER turn the basket
upside down containing air fried foods.
NOTE: The air fryer can be turned OFF at any time by turning the
timer dial to 0.
11. One beep will sound when the set air frying time has expired. The
air fryer will turn OFF automatically. Both the orange POWER light

and doneness. If additional air frying is needed, adjust the
temperature if desired and set the timer for 3-minute intervals until
fully cooked.
13. Allow cooked food to rest for 5 to 10 seconds before removing the
basket from air fryer or food from frying basket.
14. When air frying is nished, remove the basket from the machine

17. Unplug the air fryer when not in use.
Helpful Hints
1. Spray olive oil or vegetable oil works well for air frying.
2. Use your air fryer to cook pre-packaged foods with a fraction of
the oil, in a fraction of the time. As a rule of thumb, lower the recipe
baking temperature by 5 ºC, up to 10 ºC and reduce the cooking
time by 30 % to 50 % depending on the food and amount.
3. For best results, some foods need to be shaken vigorously or
turned over during the air fry time. Consult the Air Frying Chart as
a general guide.
4. To avoid excess smoke, when cooking naturally high fat foods,
such as chicken wings or sausages, it may be necessary to empty
fat from the frying basket between batches.
5. Always pat food dry before cooking to encourage browning and
avoid excess smoke.
6. Air fry small batches of freshly breaded foods. Press breading
onto food, place on a cooling rack and refrigerate to help breading
adhere. Arrange in frying basket so that food is not touching to
allow air flow on all surfaces.
7. The air fryer is perfect for reheating food. Set the temperature to
160 ºC for up to 10 minutes.
Air Frying Chart
WARNING! ALWAYS USE A MEAT THERMOMETER TO ENSURE
THAT MEAT, POULTRY AND FISH ARE COOKED THOROUGHLY
BEFORE EATING. The following chart is intended as a guide only. The
quantity of food air fried at one time, the thickness or density of the
food, and whether the food is fresh, thawed, or frozen may alter the
total cooking time necessary.
1. To assure even cooking/browning, open the frying basket halfway
through the cooking time. Check, turn or vigorously shake foods
in the frying basket. This chart lists average total air frying time,
the time at which some action is required, and what action is to be
taken for best results.
2. Remember, frying smaller batches will result in shorter cooking

14
times and higher food quality. Adjust air frying temperatures and
times as necessary to suit your taste.
3. IMPORTANT NOTE: Unless food is pre-packaged and pre-oiled,
for browned and crispy results, all foods should be lightly oiled
before air frying.
• Oil may be sprayed or brushed onto foods.
• Spray oils work well as oil is evenly distributed and smaller
quantities of oil are needed.
• To ensure crispy results, make sure foods are dried before
adding oil.
• Cut pieces smaller to create more surface area for crispier results.
• Blanching is a term that refers to pre-cooking foods at a lower
temperature before the nal air fry.
• Add 3 minutes to the air fry time to allow the cold air fryer to
preheat.
