ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTION
IMPORTANT, RETAIN FOR FUTURE REFERENCE: READ CAREFULLY

Air circulation fryer, rotisserie, dehydrator and more
Before you begin
It is very important that you read this entire manual, making certain you
are completely familiar with the unit's operation and precautions.
The air oven
It can cook your favourite fried food – it also broils and bakes other
favourites like air-fried burgers, calzones and doughnuts. There are
eight one-touch presets to set the time and temperature – great for
crispy shrimp, fries and southern-style chicken.
There is a rotisserie and dehydrator preset, which preserves fresh
fruits and other foods for future use.
We all love fried food
Crispy fried chicken, french fries, coconut shrimp, chicken parmesan,
hot spicy wings and much more. Until now, it was impossible to get that
crispy-fried crunch and flavour without frying in deep fat or oil.

Tips
● Smaller foods require a shorter cooking time.
● Large quantities of food require a longer cooking time.
● Flip smaller sized foods halfway through cooking, ensuring all pieces are evenly
fried.
● Adding a bit of vegetable oil on fresh potatoes is suggested for a crispier result. Add
the oil just before cooking.
● Snacks normally cooked in an oven can be cooked in the air oven.
● Use premade dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Premade dough
requires shorter cooking time.
● When baking a cake or quiche, place a baking tin or oven dish in the air oven. It is
suggested to use a tin or dish for cooking fragile or filled foods.
● You can use the air oven to reheat foods. Set the temperature to 150°C (300°F) for
up to 10 minutes.
