POLARIZED PLUG INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit into the

the appliance. If the electrical rating of the extension cord is too
low, it could overheat and burn.
•The resulting extended 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.
KNOW YOUR SMART FRYER
Prepare your favorite foods and snacks in a quick, healthy, and easy
way with your new Smart Fryer. This Smart Fryer combines heat with
high-speed air circulation and a top grill to cook your ingredients from
all sides, simultaneously! It also allows you to prepare a variety of tasty
dishes without the addition of excess oils or fats to most ingredients. This
Smart Fryer features:
•A temperature control range of 190°F –410°F (85°C –210°C)
•A timer range from 0 to 30 minutes, which is equipped with an auto
shut-off feature. Once the timer goes off, the unit will turn itself off.
Other great advantages provided by your Kalorik Smart Fryer include:
•Fast cooking, with little to no preheating required.
•Quick and easy clean-up: the non-stick coated parts are
conveniently sized to fit in the dishwasher.

•Hassle-free frying—no spatters, no mess, and no oil smell!
•Versatility—with its frying, baking, grilling, and roasting capacities,
this unit serves as a great cooking tool for a busy kitchen.
•No assembly required—very easy and safe to use!
BEFORE THE FIRST USE
•Unpack the appliance and its accessories (trivet, basket). Wash the
accessories in hot, soapy water and then wipe them dry. Wipe the
interior of the frying cavity with a damp cloth or sponge, and then
dry with a paper towel. Make sure the cavity is dry before operating
the unit.
•Position the Smart Fryer on a flat, level and heat-resistant surface,
making sure that it is also positioned at least 6 inches (15 cm) away
from any surrounding objects.
•It is recommended to let the Smart Fryer heat on the highest setting
for about 20 minutes without any food in it. This helps to eliminate
grease that may have adhered during manufacturing, and to
eliminate the "new" appliance smell.
•Ventilate the room during this period. When your Smart Fryer is
heated for the first time, it may emit slight smoke or odor. This is
normal with many heating appliances. This does not affect the
safety of your appliance.
Caution: When moving the Smart Fryer, make sure that you hold it
securely and support the base—do not rely solely on the basket handle
when moving the Smart Fryer!

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preparing for use
•Place the appliance on a stable, horizontal, and level surface.
Make sure that the surface is heat resistant and that the Smart Fryer
is also positioned at least 6 inches (15 cm) away from any
surrounding objects.
•Make sure that the trivet is securely placed inside the basket. Use
the trivet handle located in the center of the trivet to easily insert or
remove it from the basket.
•Insert the power plug into a wall socket. Your Smart Fryer is now
ready for use!
Caution!
• Do not fill the basket with oil or any other liquid, as this may cause a
fire hazard.
• Never use the Smart Fryer without the basket and trivet in place.
• Keep all ingredients in the basket to prevent any contact with the
appliance’s heating elements. Do not overfill the basket.
• Do not cover the air inlet on the top or the air outlet on the back of the
unit while the appliance is in use.
• Do not touch the inside of the appliance while it is operating.
• Never immerse the unit’s housing in water or rinse it under the tap.
2. Using the appliance
The Smart Fryer can be used to prepare a large variety of foods. Please
refer to the table in the “Settings” section for basic cooking times or
refer to the included recipe book.
•Pull the handle to carefully remove the basket from the Smart Fryer.
•Put the ingredients that you will be air-frying into the basket, on top
of the trivet.
Note: Never fill the basket to capacity or exceed the recommended
amounts (see section ‘Settings’ in this chapter), as this could affect the
quality of cooking.
•Slide the basket back into the Smart Fryer.

9
www.KALORIK.com
FT 46688 –210430
Caution! Never use the Smart Fryer without the basket and trivet in it!
Caution! Do not touch the trivet, basket, or the inside of the Smart Fryer
during or immediately after use, as they get very hot. Only hold the
basket by its handle. Always use oven mitts. Unit is hot!
•Turn the temperature control dial to the required cooking
temperature (See section’ Settings’ in this chapter to help
determine the right temperature).
•Determine the required preparation time for the ingredients (see
section ‘Settings’ after this chapter).
•To switch the appliance on, turn the timer knob to the required
cooking time.
•Add 3 minutes to the preparation time when the appliance is cold
or let the appliance preheat for 3 minutes without any ingredients
inside.
•The orange power-on light will illuminate, and the fryer will quickly
start generating hot air. The timer will start counting down the set
time.
•During cooking, some excess oil and cooking juices from the
ingredients will collect in the basket. This is to be expected.
•Some recipes require shaking the food in the basket halfway
through the set time (see section ’Settings’ in this chapter). To shake
the ingredients, pull the basket out of the appliance using the
handle and gently, but firmly, shake it. Slide the basket back into
the Smart Fryer and continue to cook.
Note: Because the rapid hot air technology instantly reheats the air
inside of the appliance, pulling the basket briefly out of the appliance
during hot air frying will not disturb the cooking process.
Tip: Sometimes, it is easier to divide cooking times into 2 phases for
recipes that require the basket to be shaken mid-cooking. If you set the
timer to half the required cooking time, you will hear the timer bell go
off when you must shake the ingredients. Please note that after shaking,
you must set the timer again to the remaining preparation time.
Tip: If you set the timer to the full cooking time, the timer bell will not go
off until cooking is completed. You can pull the basket out at any time
to check the cooking condition of the ingredients.

10
www.KALORIK.com
FT 46688 –210430
The power will shut down automatically and resume after you slide the
basket back into the appliance. Note that the timer does not stop
counting down in this situation.
•When you hear the timer bell, the set preparation time has elapsed.
Using oven mitts and the handle, pull the basket out of the
appliance and place it on a heat-resistant surface.
Note: You can also switch the appliance off at any time. To do this,
simply set the timer to “0” or pull out the pan directly.
•Check to see if the ingredients are ready. If they are not ready,
simply slide the basket back into the appliance and set the timer for
a few extra minutes.
Caution! After Smart frying, the trivet, the basket and the ingredients will
be hot! Depending on the type of the ingredients in the Smart Fryer,
steam may escape out of the unit. Be mindful of scalding and wear
kitchen gloves for safety.
•Holding the basket by the handle, empty the food into a bowl or
onto a plate.
Tip: To remove large or fragile ingredients, you may use a pair of tongs
to lift the ingredients out of the basket. Use tongs or utensils with heat-
resistant plastic tips, as metallic tips or utensils may scratch the coating
of the basket.
•When a batch of food is ready, the Smart Fryer is instantly ready for
preparing another batch.
IMPORTANT: If you notice the fan is not operating once the product
starts cooking (no noise or airflow), please discontinue usage
immediately and contact Customer Service.
MAKING HOME-MADE FRIES
To make home-made fries, follow the steps below:

11
www.KALORIK.com
FT 46688 –210430
•Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
•Wash the potato sticks thoroughly and dry them with paper towels.
•Pour 1/2 tablespoon of canola oil in a bowl, put the sticks on top
and mix until they are coated with oil.
•Remove the sticks from the bowl with your hands or a kitchen utensil
so that excess oil stays behind in the bowl. Put the sticks in the
basket.
Note: Do not tilt the bowl to pour the potato sticks into the basket.
Transfer them with your hands or a kitchen utensil in smaller batches to
prevent excess oil from collecting on the bottom of the pan.
Air fry the potato sticks for 15 minutes at 400 °F or until golden. For best
results, do not fry more than 1 lb. of fries per batch.
SETTINGS
The table below will help you select the basic settings for the
ingredients you want to prepare.
Note: Keep in mind that these settings are suggestions.
Tips:
•Any food that can be prepared in a traditional oven can also be
prepared in the Smart Fryer.
•Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time
optimizes the result and can help prevent unevenly air-fried food.
•A larger amount of ingredients only requires a slightly longer
preparation time; a smaller amount of ingredients only requires a
slightly shorter preparation time.
•If food tends to stick to the trivet or sides of the basket, add cooking
oil spray in the basket and on the trivet prior to adding the
ingredients to cook.
•Do not prepare very greasy food, such as sausages, in the Smart
Fryer as the grease could catch fire.
•Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Wait a few minutes
after you add the oil before placing your food in the Smart Fryer.
•The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 500 grams / 1.2 lb.
•Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily.

12
www.KALORIK.com
FT 46688 –210430
Pre-made dough also requires a shorter preparation time than
home-made dough.
•Place a baking tin or oven dish on top of the trivet to bake a cake,
quiche or to fry fragile or filled ingredients.
•You can also use the Smart Fryer to reheat food, by setting the
temperature to 290°F for up to 10 minutes.
