OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE FIRST USE
For best results, follow these steps before using your air fryer for the first time.
1. Remove all packaging materials, such as plastic bags and foam inserts. Check to ensure
that all parts and accessories are accounted for.
2. Read and remove any stickers on the unit except for the rating label, which should
remain on the unit.
3. Wipe down the interior and exterior with a damp cloth.
4. Wash the basket and rack with warm, soapy water. Dry thoroughly.
HOW TO COOK IN THE AIR FRYER
The air fryer’s high-speed fan cooks your favorite foods quickly. The rack in the basket allows
air to circulate around foods for even cooking and crisping, and lets excess fat drip down and
away from foods for healthier eating.
CAUTION: Never fill the basket with oil. Unlike deep fryers, air fryers require little to no oil to
produce a crisp texture. If you choose to use oil, toss foods with just a little in a separate bowl
before cooking in the air fryer.
1. Prepare the food(s) you plan to air fry. (See the Air Frying Chart starting on p.13 for
how to prepare and air fry some favorite foods.)
2. Place the air fryer on a hard, flat surface with at least 6inches of clearance on top and
in back for proper airflow, then plug the unit in. The control panel will illuminate, and
the default temperature and time will alternate on the display.
3. Lower the rack into the basket. Press down on the rack to ensure it is secure and level.
There should be a small amount of space between the rack and bottom of the basket.
CAUTION: Never use aerosol cooking spray on the air fryer's nonstick parts, as it can
cause the coating to chip.
4. Put the food on the rack. To allow for good air circulation, do not fill the basket past the
MAX line.
