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
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not properly fit into the
outlet at first, reverse it. If it still does not fit, contact a competent qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting
from becoming entangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. Extension
cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.
•The electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least that of
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 counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over.

dishes without the addition of excess oils or fats to most ingredients. This
Smart Fryer features:

•A digital control of the cooking time and temperature.
•A temperature control range of 170°F –400°F (76°C –200°C)

•A timer range from 0 to 60 minutes, which is equipped with an auto
shut-off feature. Once the timer reaches “0:00”, the unit will beep
five times and 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!
•Also features a dual-layer rack and 3 skewers to maximize the
cooking capacity and versatility of your Smart Fryer.
BEFORE THE FIRST USE
•Unpack the appliance and its accessories (food basket, food
basket holder, rack). 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.
Make 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 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 on the food basket handle
when moving the fryer!

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
•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 food basket is securely placed inside the basket
holder.
•Insert the power plug into a wall socket. Your Smart Fryer is now
ready for use!
Caution!
• Do not fill the food basket or basket holder with oil or any other liquid,
as this may cause a fire hazard.
• Never use the Smart Fryer without the food basket in place.
• Keep all ingredients in the basket to prevent any contact with the
appliance’s heating elements. Do not overfill the food 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.
•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 food basket holder from the
Smart Fryer.
•Put the ingredients that you will be air-frying into the food basket
and place the basket into the basket holder.
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.

Caution! Never use the Smart Fryer without the food basket and the
food basket holder in it!
Caution! Do not touch the food basket, basket holder, or the inside of
the Smart Fryer during and immediately after use, as they get very hot.
Only hold the food basket by its handle. Always use oven mitts. Unit is
hot!
•Determine the required preparation time and cooking temperature
for the ingredients (see section ‘Settings’ after this chapter).
•Press the On/off key to start the unit and adjust the time and
temperature settings as desired.
•Press the +/- time adjustment keys to increase or decrease the
cooking time. A short press will increase or decrease the cooking
time by 1 minute; a long press will increase or decrease the cooking
time rapidly by increments of 1 minute.
•Press the +/- temperature adjustment keys to increase or decrease
the cooking temperature. A short press will increase or decrease the
cooking temperature by 10 degrees (Fahrenheit); a long press will
increase or decrease the temperature rapidly by increments of 10
degrees.
•Press the On/off key again to start air frying.
•The spinning “Fan” icon and the “Heating up” signal (the red dot
inside the fan icon) will turn on and the fryer will quickly start
generating hot air. The timer will start counting down the set time.
•The red “Heating Up” dot will go off when the set temperature is
reached.
•During the air frying process, the red “Heating up” dot will light up
again intermittently. This indicates that the heating element is
maintaining the set temperature.
•During cooking, excess oil and cooking juices from the ingredients
will collect in the basket holder. 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. Then gently, but firmly, shake it. Slide the basket holder
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 have to shake the ingredients.
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. The power will shut
down automatically and resume after you slide the basket holder back
into the appliance. Note that the timer stops counting down
automatically in this situation.
•When you hear the timer bell (5 beeps), the set preparation time
has elapsed. Using oven mitts and the basket handle, pull the
basket holder 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 press the On/Off key.
•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 hot air frying, the basket, the basket holder 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.
•To detach the food basket from the basket holder, slide the
protection cover and press on the basket release button.
Caution! Never press the release button unless the basket holder is
resting on a flat, level, and heat resistant surface! The basket holder
contains hot liquid on the user. Risk of severe scalding!
•Holding the basket by the handle, empty the air-fried 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.
