Electrical Information
A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is
provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a
longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords
are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a
longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:
1. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least
as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
2. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it could be pulled on or tripped over.
3. The appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit
into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. If the
appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set or extension cord
should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

French fries are fried unevenly in the Brio.
1. You did not soak the potato sticks properly before air-frying them.
2. You did not use the right potato type, or they were not fresh.
Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes, remove them,
and dry them with paper towels. Use fresh potatoes and make sure they stay firm
during air-frying.
