INTRODUCTION

The Cosmo Air Fryer will help you to cook all your favorite meals and snacks
without the use of extra oils or fats. Fat-free frying uses the principle of hot air
combining with high-speed air cycling (Fast air change) and will provide one-
time comprehensive heating; for most ingredients/food, there is no need for
additional oil while cooking. The Grill for the Fry Pan allows for the Air Fryer to
bake food, such as cake and biscuits.
To prepare your Cosmo Air Fryer for the first time:
1.) Remove all packing material.
2.) Remove the glue and labels on the unit.
3.) Clean the Fry Basket, Fry Pan, and Grill thoroughly with hot water,
detergent, and a non-abrasive sponge. These components are also
dishwasher-safe.
4.) Wipe the inside and outside of the Air Fryer unit with a wet cloth/non-
abrasive sponge and dry thoroughly.
NOTE: DO NOT submerge the Air Fryer unit or plug in water, nor wash
with direct water source, i.e. running faucet.
5.) Place the Air Fryer on a surface that is leveled, even, and stable. DO
NOT place the Air Fryer on a surface that is NOT heat-resistant.
6.) Place the Fry Basket into the Fry Pan securely.
7.) Pull the wire out of the wire capsule at the bottom of the unit.
Never pour oil or other liquid into the fryer.
The fat-free fryer uses the technology of hot air heating.
Do not put any objects on top of the air fryer; this will prevent the
airflow and reduce the effect of hot-air heating.

Air Frying Tips
•Any food that can be cooked in the oven can also be cooked in the fat-free
fryer.
•Smaller sized portions of food will require less time for cooking.
•During the cooking process, turning over the food will allow for more even
frying.
•Adding a small amount of oil to ingredients/food BEFORE cooking, the food
can cook crispier in the Air Fryer. After adding the oil, allow the food to sit for
several minutes before cooking. (NOTE: Never pour oil or other liquid directly
into the air fryer.)
•Bread can be made quickly and conveniently with the use of pre-fermented
dough. Compared to fresh dough, pre-fermented dough requires a shorter
cooking time.
