Before First Use
Instructions

Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer 360 XL™ | Model:S∙AFO-004 15
Instructions for Use
• Foods that are smaller in size usually require
a slightly shorter cooking time than larger ones.
• Large sizes or quantities of food may require
a longer cooking time than smaller sizes or
quantities.
• Flipping or turning food halfway through the
cooking process ensures that the food is evenly
cooked.
• Misting a bit of vegetable oil on fresh potatoes
is suggested for a crispier result. When adding
a little oil, do so just before cooking.
• Snacks normally cooked in an oven can also
be cooked in the Emeril Lagasse Power
AirFryer 360 XL.
• Use premade dough to prepare filled snacks
quickly and easily. Premade dough also requires
a shorter cooking time than homemade dough.
• A baking tin or oven dish can be placed on a
rack inside the Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer
360 XL when cooking foods such as cakes or
quiches. Using a tin or dish is also recommended
when cooking fragile or filled foods.
The Crisper Tray and Pizza Rack can be
inserted into any of the four positions
between the heat elements in the Unit.
IMPORTANT: The Drip Tray must be kept
below the heat elements in the Unit at all
times when cooking food.
