IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Follow basic safety precautions when using your air fryer. Read all instructions.
Key Safety Points
General Safety
• Do not touch hot surfaces.
Use handle.
• Use caution when turning the basket
over after cooking, as the hot crisper
plate may fall out and create a safety
hazard.
• Do not block any ventilation
openings. Hot steam is released
through openings. Keep your hands
and face clear of openings.
• To protect against electric shock,
do not immerse the air fryer cord,
plug, or housing in water or other
liquids.
• Close supervision is necessary
when the air fryer is used by or near
children.
• Unplug when not in use and before
cleaning. Allow to cool before putting
on or taking o parts.
• Do not use your air fryer if it
has a damaged cord or plug, if
it malfunctions, or if it has been
damaged in any way. Contact
Customer Support (see page 17).
• Using accessory attachments not
recommended by COSORI may
cause injuries.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not place the air fryer or any of its
parts on a stove, near gas or electric
burners, or in a heated oven.
• Be extremely cautious when moving
your air fryer (or removing the
basket) if it contains hot oil or other
hot liquids.
• Always place the crisper plate on a
heat-resistant surface after removing
it from the basket.
• Do not clean with metal scouring
pads. Metal fragments can break o
the pad and touch electrical parts,
creating a risk of electric shock.
• This air fryer can be used by children
8 years and older as well as persons
with reduced physical, sensory,
or mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge if they
have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the air
fryer in a safe way and understand
the hazards involved.
• Do not allow children to clean or
perform maintenance on the air
fryer unless they are older than 8 and
supervised.
• Children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the
air fryer.
• This air fryer is not intended to be
operated by means of an external
timer or separate remote-control
system.
• Do not use the air fryer for any
purpose other than its intended use.
• Not for commercial use. Household
use only.
READ AND SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
Note: See Care & Maintenance (page 15) for
guidelines on how to clean accessories.

6
EN
While Air Frying
• Use on a flat, stable, heat-resistant
surface away from heat sources or
liquids.
• An air fryer works with hot air only.
Never fill the basket with oil or fat.
• CAUTION: To avoid risk of electric
shock, cook only in the removable
basket.
• To avoid risk of fire or electric shock,
do not place oversized foods or
metal utensils into the air fryer.
• Do not overfill the air fryer basket.
Heaping amounts of food may touch
the heating coils and cause a fire
hazard.
• Do not touch the basket or crisper
plate during or immediately after air
frying.
• Do not cover any part of the air fryer
with metal foil, except for the basket
as directed.
• Do not place paper, cardboard,
non-heat-resistant plastic, or similar
materials into your air fryer.
• Never put baking or parchment
paper into the air fryer without food
on top. Air circulation can cause
paper to lift and touch heating coils.
• Always use heat-safe containers.
Be extremely cautious if using
containers that aren’t metal or glass.
• To avoid risk of fire, do not cover or
allow the air fryer to touch flammable
materials (curtains, draperies, walls,
etc.) when it is turned on.
• Do not place items on top of the air
fryer when it is turned on.
• Do not store any materials other than
COSORI’s recommended accessories
in the air fryer when not in use.
Power & Cord
• Turn o the air fryer before removing
the plug from the outlet.
• Do not let the power cord (or any
extension cord) hang over the edge
of a table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces.
• Remove and discard the protective
cover fitted over the power plug
of the air fryer to prevent choking
hazards.
• Never use an outlet below the
counter when plugging in your air
fryer.
• If the power supply cord is damaged,
it must be replaced by Arovast
Corporation or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid an electric
or fire hazard. Please contact
Customer Support (page 17).
• Keep the air fryer and its cord out of
reach of children less than 8 years
old.
• To turn the air fryer o, press once.
The air fryer will beep, will turn
orange, and other buttons will turn
o.
• Immediately turn o and unplug your
air fryer if you see dark smoke coming
out. White smoke is normal, caused
by heating fat or food splashing,
but dark smoke means that food is
burning or there is a circuit problem.
Wait for smoke to clear before pulling
the basket out. If the cause was
not burnt food, contact Customer
Support (page 17).
• Do not leave your air fryer unattended
while in use.

220–240V, 50/60Hz 120V, 60 Hz
7
EN
• Your fryer should only be used
with 220–240V, 50/60Hz electrical
systems. Do not plug into another
type of outlet.
Extension Cords
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF)
Note: Items marked with the following symbol may
reach high temperatures and should be handled
carefully.
• A short power-supply cord is
provided to reduce the risk resulting
from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord.
• Longer extension cords are available
and may be used if care is exercised
in their use. If a longer extension
cord is used:
• The marked electrical rating of the
cord set or extension cord should
be at least as great as the electrical
rating of the air fryer.
• The cord should be arranged
so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it
can be pulled on by children or
tripped over unintentionally.
• If the appliance is of the grounded
type, the cord set or extension
cord should be a grounding-type
3-wire cord.
The COSORI Air Fryer complies with all
standards regarding electromagnetic
fields (EMF). If handled properly and
according to the instructions in this
user manual, the appliance is safe
to use based on scientific evidence
available today.

must not be discarded as household
waste, and should be delivered to

Shaking Food
How to Shake
What to Shake
• Small foods that are stacked will usually
need shaking, such as fries or nuggets.
• Without shaking, foods may not be crispy
or evenly cooked.
• You can flip other foods, such as steak, to
ensure even browning.
• When you remove the basket, the air fryer
will pause cooking automatically, and
the display will show [- - - - - ] until the
basket is replaced.
• When you replace the basket, cooking will
automatically resume.
• Avoid shaking longer than 30 seconds, as
the air fryer may start to cool down.
When to Shake

Cooking Guide
Overfilling
Using Oil
Food Tips
• Adding a small amount of oil to your food
will make it crispier. Use no more than
30 mL / 2 US tbsp of oil.
• Oil sprays are excellent for applying small
amounts of oil evenly to all food items.
• 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 basket.
• Air frying high-fat foods will cause fat to
drip to the bottom of the basket. 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.
• If the basket is overfilled, food will cook
unevenly. Do not pack in food.
French Fries
• Add 8–15 mL / ½–1 US tbsp oil for
crispiness.
• When making fries from raw potatoes,
soak uncooked fries in water for
15minutes to remove starch prior to
air frying. Pat dry with a towel before
adding oil.
• Cut uncooked fries smaller for crispier
results.
• Try cutting fries into 0.6-cm by 7.6-cm /
¼-inch by 3-inch strips.
More Functions
Pausing
Automatically Resume Cooking
• Press to pause cooking. The air fryer
will stop heating, and will blink until
you press again to resume cooking.
• After 30 minutes of inactivity, the air fryer
will turn o.
• This function allows you to pause the
programme without removing the basket
from the air fryer.
• If you pull out the basket, the air fryer
will pause cooking automatically and the
display will show [- - - - - ].
• When you return the basket, the air fryer
will automatically resume cooking based
on your previous settings.
Automatic Shutoff
Overheat Protection
• If the air fryer has no active programme,
it will clear all settings and turn o after
5minutes of inactivity.
• If the basket is removed, the air fryer
will clear all settings and turn o after
30minutes of inactivity.

EN
CARE & MAINTENANCE
Note:
• Always clean the air fryer basket and crisper
plate after every use.
• Lining the basket with foil (except the crisper
plate) may make cleanup easier.
1. Turn o and unplug the air fryer. Allow it
to cool completely before cleaning. Pull
out the basket for faster cooling.
2. Wipe the outside of the air fryer with a
moist cloth, if necessary.
3. The basket and crisper plate are
dishwasher-safe. You can also wash the
basket and crisper plate with hot, soapy
water and a non-abrasive sponge. Soak
if necessary.
Note: The basket and crisper plate have a nonstick
coating. Avoid using metal utensils and abrasive
cleaning materials.
Note: Make sure the heating coil is completely dry
before turning on the air fryer.
b. Use a sponge to spread the paste
on the basket and crisper plate and
scrub. Let the basket and crisper
plate sit for 15 minutes before
rinsing.
c. Wash basket 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.
Ifneeded, clean the heating coil to
remove food debris.
6. Dry before using.
4. For stubborn grease:
a. In a small bowl, mix 30g /
2UStbsp of baking soda and
15mL / 1UStbsp of water to form a
spreadable paste.

16
EN
Problem Possible Solution
The air fryer will not turn
on.
Make sure the air fryer is plugged in.
Push the basket securely into the air fryer.
Food is not completely
cooked.
Place smaller batches of food into the basket. If the basket is overstued,
then food will be undercooked.
Increase cooking temperature or time.
Food is cooked unevenly. Foods that are stacked on top of each other or close to each other need to
be shaken or flipped during cooking (see Shaking Food, page 13).
Food is not crispy after air
frying.
Spraying or brushing a small amount of oil can increase crispiness (see
Cooking Guide, page 14).
French fries are not cooked
correctly. See French Fries, page 14.
Basket will not slide into the
air fryer securely. Make sure the basket is not overfilled with food.
White smoke is coming out
of the air fryer.
The air fryer may produce some white smoke when you use it for the first
time. This is normal.
Make sure the basket and the inside of the air fryer are properly cleaned
and not greasy.
Cooking greasy foods will cause oil to collect beneath the crisper plate.
This oil will produce white smoke, and the basket may be hotter than
usual. This is normal, and should not aect cooking. Handle the basket
with care.
Dark smoke is coming out of
the air fryer.
Immediately unplug your air fryer. Dark smoke means that food is burning
or there is a circuit problem. Wait for smoke to clear before pulling the
basket out. If the cause was not burnt food, contact Customer Support
(see page 17).
The air fryer has a plastic
smell.
Any air fryer may have a plastic smell from the manufacturing process.
This is normal. Follow the instructions for a Test Run (page 11) to decrease
the plastic smell. If the plastic smell does not decrease, contact Customer
Support (see page 17).
Display shows Error Code
“E1”.
There is an open circuit in the temperature monitor. Contact Customer
Support (see page 17).
Display shows Error Code
“E2”.
There is a short circuit in the temperature monitor. Contact Customer
Support (see page 17).
Display shows Error Code
“E3”.
The air fryer’s overheat protection has activated. Turn o and unplug the
air fryer and allow it to cool completely. If the display continues to show
“E3”, contact Customer Support (see page 17).
