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.
2. Check to ensure that all parts and accessories are accounted for.
3. Read and remove any stickers on the unit except for the rating label on the bottom,
which should remain on the unit.
4. Wipe down the interior and exterior with a damp cloth.
5. Wash the baskets and racks with warm, soapy water. Dry thoroughly.
11
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PREPARE TO COOK
The air fryer’s high-speed fans cook your favorite foods quickly. The rubber feet on
the racks elevate the racks to allow air to circulate around foods for even cooking and
crisping. The racks also allow excess fat to drip down and away from foods for healthier
eating.
CAUTION: Never fill the baskets 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.
2. Place the air fryer on a hard, flat surface and plug it in. The control panel will
illuminate in white. Press the
1
button to activate basket 1 so it is ready to have
its cooking time and temperature set. Alternatively, press the
2
button to activate
basket 2.
12
3. Lower the racks into the baskets, or just one rack if cooking in just one basket. Press
down on the racks to ensure they are secure and level. There should be a small amount
of space between the rack(s) and the bottom of the basket(s). (For easiest handling of
the basket rack, pinch the center grip bar with your thumb and index finger.)
CAUTION: Never spray the baskets or racks with cooking oil from an aerosol spray can,
which includes harsh components that can cause chipping of the nonstick coating.
However, you can oil the racks or spray them with oil from a non-aerosol mister.
4. Put food on the rack(s). To allow for good air circulation, do not fill the basket(s)
past the MAX line.
5. Slide the basket(s) into the air fryer. (If cooking in just one basket, the other does
not need to be in place.) NOTE: On first use, the unit may emit a slight odor, which is
normal and will dissipate with use.
HOW TO COOK IN ONE BASKET
Though the beauty of this air fryer is its double-basket capacity and sync functions, you
can easily cook in just one basket. (The other basket can be removed or left in the unit.)
1. Prepare air fryer for cooking and activate a single basket as directed starting on p.11.
2. Set the time and temperature of the active basket: To set the temperature, press the
TEMP button until the temperature displays, then press the plus or minus sign. To set
the time, press the TIME button until the time displays, and then press the plus or
minus sign.
3. Press START. The interior light will cycle on and o periodically during cooking.
CAUTION: Do not look directly into the heating element light for long periods of
time.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
13
4. During cooking, the SHAKE light on the control panel will turn on, and the air fryer
will beep as a reminder to shake (or flip) food, as necessary. The light will turn o
immediately when the basket is removed and will go o automatically after about
1 minute if the basket is not pulled out. (If your food does not need to be shaken,
flipped, or turned, simply ignore the warning.)
5. When the timer is done, the air fryer will beep three times and turn o automatically,
and the READY light will display on the panel. Remove the basket from the unit
and check food for doneness (if it needs more time, press the +2 MIN button), then
carefully transfer the food to plates or a platter and serve.
NOTE: While the unit is cooking on one side, you can begin cooking in the other
basket at any time. (The SYNC BASKETS and SYNC FINISH functions will not be
available, however.) Simply press the other basket’s button on the display and set the
time and temperature for that side, then press START.
HOW TO COOK USING SYNC BASKETS
The SYNC BASKETS button is a shortcut for setting both baskets to cook simultaneously
with the same time and temperature.
1. Prepare to cook and activate basket 1 as directed starting on p. 11.
2. With basket 1 activated, set its time and temperature: To set the temperature, press
the TEMP button until the temperature displays, and then press the plus or minus
sign. To set the time, press the TIME button until the time displays, and then press
the plus or minus sign.
3. Press the SYNC BASKETS button. The air fryer will automatically apply the time and
temperature from basket 1 to basket 2.

4. Press START. The interior light will cycle on and o periodically during cooking.
CAUTION: Do not look directly into the interior light for long periods of time.
5. If one basket’s time or temperature is manually adjusted during cooking the other
basket will automatically adjust to match. Pressing the HI-FRY or +2 MIN button,
however, will break the sync.
6. During cooking, the SHAKE lights will turn on, and the air fryer will beep as a
reminder to shake (or flip) food, as necessary. When one basket is removed,
both sides will pause cooking until the basket is returned. The SHAKE light will
turn o immediately when the corresponding basket is removed and will go o
automatically after about 1 minute if the basket is not pulled out. (If your food does
not need to be shaken or flipped, simply ignore the alert.)
7. When the timer is done, the air fryer will beep three times and turn o
automatically, and the READY lights will display on the panel. Remove the baskets
from the unit and check food on both sides for doneness (if either needs more time,
press the +2 MIN button), then carefully transfer the food to plates or a platter and
serve.
HOW TO COOK USING SYNC FINISH
By pressing the SYNC FINISH button, you can program two foods with dierent cooking
times and/or temperatures to finish cooking at the same time. The function delays the
start of the basket with the shorter cook time so that both baskets finish their cook
cycles simultaneously.
1. Prepare to cook and activate basket 1 as directed starting on p. 11.
2. With both baskets in place, set the time and temperature for basket 1: To set the
temperature, press the TEMP button until the temperature displays, and then press
the plus or minus sign. To set the time, press the TIME button until the time displays,
and then press the plus or minus sign.

15
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3. Press the
2
button, then set the time and temperature (or a preset function) for
basket 2 the same way you did for basket 1.
4. Press the SYNC FINISH button, then press START. The air fryer will begin cooking
on the side with the longer cooking time and will delay the start of cooking on the
other side until the appropriate time so that they finish together. The basket that is
waiting to cook will display HOLD on the panel until it begins cooking. NOTE: The
interior light will cycle on and o periodically during cooking. CAUTION: Do not look
directly into the heating element light for long periods of time.
5. During cooking, the SHAKE light will turn on for both baskets (not necessarily
simultaneously), and the air fryer will beep as a reminder to shake (or flip) food,
as necessary. When one basket is removed, both sides will pause cooking until
the basket is returned. The SHAKE light will turn o immediately when the
corresponding basket is removed and will go o automatically after about 1 minute
if the basket is not pulled out. (If your food does not need to be shaken or flipped,
simply ignore the alert.)
6. If either timer is adjusted while one of the baskets is still waiting to cook and the
timer with the shorter time is not increased above the longer time, then the finish
will remain synced. If either timer is adjusted while both sides are actively cooking
(including if you press the +2 MIN or HI-FRY button), then the sync will break, and
the SYNC FINISH LED will turn o (but both baskets will continue cooking).
7. When the timer is done, the air fryer will beep three times and turn o automatically,
and the READY lights will display on the panel. Remove the baskets from the unit
and check food on both sides for doneness (if either needs more time, press the +2
MIN button), then carefully transfer the food to plates or a platter and serve.
16
SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
HI-FRY BUTTON
The HI-FRY button illuminates partway through cooking. When pressed, it will raise the
cooking temperature to 450˚F (235˚C) for 2 minutes, to give foods a little additional
browning. When cooking in one of the Sync modes, pressing the HI-FRY button on
one side raises the temperature only on that basket, and breaks the sync.
+2 MIN BUTTON
This button lights up near the end of the cooking cycle. Pressing it adds 2 more minutes
of cooking time at the current temperature. It can be pressed more than once to add
additional time. When cooking in one of the Sync modes, pressing the +2 MIN button will
break the sync.
MUTING SOUNDS
The unit beeps at various points in the cooking cycle to alert you to flip your food
or that cooking is complete. If you wish to mute these beeps, press the MUTE button
(the word OFF will illuminate). Press the button again to turn the sound back on.
17
AIR FRYER COOKING TIPS
For a crisp exterior, oil foods lightly. Some foods, especially if fresh, benefit from being
tossed with a little oil in a separate bowl before frying. However, high-fat foods, like a
well-marbled steak, or prepared foods usually require no additional oil.
Avoid wet batters. Loose batters, such as those used for deep frying, do not work in
air fryers, as the batter simply slides o. Adapt such recipes to give foods a thicker
coating, preferably including breadcrumbs to help the coating adhere.
Use medium-high to high heat for most cooking. Most foods will air fry best between
375°F and 400°F (190°C and 205°C). For gentler cooking and reheating, use a lower
temperature to avoid overcooking.
Don’t overcrowd the baskets. Too much food, especially if tightly packed, can inhibit
browning and crisping. A better bet: Fry food in batches.
Shake the baskets for even cooking. A good shake during the cooking cycle is
especially beneficial for smaller items like french fries, onion rings, and chicken wings.
For larger or more fragile foods, consider gently tossing or flipping for even results.
Check foods early. Check foods on the earlier side of cooking time; you can always
slide the basket back in to continue cooking.
Follow food-safety guidelines for doneness. Because air fryer temperatures and food
sizes can vary, do not rely only on recipe timing when cooking food. Check foods for
doneness against current safety guidelines before serving.
Preheat the air fryer, if you like. While not necessary, preheating the unit can cook
foods faster and promote crisp results. CAUTION: Be careful when adding food after
preheating as the interior of the fryer will be hot.
18
Why is there white smoke coming from my unit?
White smoke can be a sign that there’s too much fat in the fryer. Avoid cooking very
fatty foods in the air fryer, and be sure the baskets, the racks, and the interior of the air
fryer are clean before cooking.
Why has my food cooked unevenly?
Two culprits are likely: overcrowding and not shaking. Fill the air fryer baskets loosely
with food to let air circulate, and shake, toss, or flip foods at least once during cooking
for more even results.
Why isn’t my food crisp?
Though you can air fry with no added oil, coating foods very lightly with oil (usually just
1
/
2
teaspoon per batch for most recipes) helps guarantee crisp results. Preheating the
fryer also helps.
Why is the unit displaying an error code?
If your air fryer displays E1 or E2 on its control panel, it means there is a loose wire
contact or a short circuit, and the unit will not function. Should this occur, please contact
Chefman
®
Customer Support for a replacement.
What do I do if a rack is missing a rubber foot?
Though they should be fairly secure, the feet on the rack are removable. Should one get
lost, please contact Chefman
®
Customer Support for a replacement.
Why does the interior light turn off when my air fryer is cooking?
The interior light comes from the heating element, which cycles on and o periodically
during cooking. When the light turns o in the middle of a cooking cycle, rest assured
the unit is still working.
TROUBLESHOOTING

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The nonstick coating on the baskets and racks makes the air fryer easy to clean
following the steps below.
1. Unplug the unit and let it cool completely before cleaning. (For faster cooling, take
hot baskets out of the unit.)
2. To remove the cooled racks from the baskets, pinch the center grip bar on the rack,
and pull the rack straight up and out of the basket. WARNING: Do not lift the rack
out of the basket when hot, or injury can occur.
3. Wash the baskets and racks with warm, soapy water, rinse, and dry well with a
towel for best results. Baskets and racks are also top-rack dishwasher safe.
4. Wipe down the outside and the inside of the unit with a damp cloth as needed. Do
not put the unit in the dishwasher or submerge in water or any other liquid. Do not
use window cleaner on the windows.
5. Do not use abrasive cleansers on baskets, racks, or the interior or exterior of the
appliance, or you could damage the finishes.
