BEFORE FIRST USE
1. Remove and discard all packaging material, labels, and tape from the unit.
2. Remove and clean the grill grate, air fry basket, drip tray and drip tray
cover with hot water, dishwashing liquid, and a non-abrasive sponge. Dry
all parts before use.
3. Wipe the inside and outside of the unit with a moist cloth.
NOTE: During the first few uses, there might be a “hot plastic” smell. This is
perfectly normal as the material is heated for the first time. The smell will go away
after the first few uses.
WARNING:
Do not put anything on top of the unit.
Do not place the unit against a wall or against other appliances. It is important to
leave at least 4 inches of free space above and around all sides of the unit to allow
for proper ventilation.
Do not fill the air fry basket with oil, frying fat, or any other liquid - air frying works
by circulating hot air.
When spraying food for a crispier finish, it is recommend to use regular cooking oil
instead of cooking spray, as the latter may damage the nonstick coating.

AIR FRYING TIPS
• For an extensive list of foods and their ideal amounts, temperature and time
settings, along with preparation notes, see the Air Fry Cooking Chart and
Dehydrate Chart on pages 36 through 39 of the Gourmia Recipe Book.
• Always ensure raw meat and poultry are cooked to safe internal
temperatures.
• Check food for desired doneness a few minutes before cook time elapses
and cook a little longer if necessary.
• Air fryers perform similar to ovens; follow oven instructions on item packaging
or recipe.
• Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the air fryer.
• Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter cook time than larger
ingredients.
• Preheating the air fryer before adding food will generally deliver the best
results (see PREHEAT on page 9).
• When cooking multiple batches in a row, only preheat before the first batch.
• Turning food halfway through cook time will deliver evenly browned and
crispy results (see TURN REMINDER on page 9).
• Toss fresh potatoes with 1 tablespoon of oil for a crispy exterior. Air fry the
ingredients within a few minutes after adding the oil.
• Do not cook foods that will produce a large amount of grease in the air fryer.
• Place a baking pan or an oven-safe dish or pan in the air fry basket to bake a
cake or quiche or to air fry fragile or filled ingredients.
