food, or cook similar foods using the same
function, temperature, and time:
1 Place ingredients in the basket, then
insert basket in unit.
2 Zone 1 will remain illuminated. Select
the desired cook function (Air Broil
is not available for use in either zone
when using Match Cook). Use the TEMP
arrows to set the temperature, and use

COOKING WITH DUALZONE
TM
TECHNOLOGY
DualZone Technology utilizes two cooking
zones to increase versatility. The Smart
Finish feature ensures that, regardless of
dierent cook settings, both zones will
finish cooking at the same time.
For detailed instructions on using each
function, see pages 8–15.
SMART FINISH™
To finish cooking at the same time when
foods have dierent cook times, temps,
or functions:
1 Insert divider in basket, then insert
crisper plates. Place ingredients in each
zone, then insert basket in unit.
2 Zone 1 will remain illuminated. Select the
desired cook function. Use the TEMP
arrows to set the temperature, and use
the TIME arrows to set the time.
3 Select Zone 2, then select the desired
cook function (Air Broil can be used
in only one zone when using Smart
Finish). Use the TEMP arrows to set the
temperature, and use the TIME arrows
to set the time.
COOKING WITH TWO ZONES
When Smart Finish™ or Match Cook are not
selected, technology is integrated into
the design to automatically optimize the
distribution of power when using two zones
with dierent cook times. This means the
food in the zone with the longer cook time
may finish cooking before the set time ends.
Check food frequently to avoid overcooking.
1 Select Zone 1, then select the desired
cook function. Use the TEMP arrows to
set the temperature.
2 Use the TIME arrows to set the time.
3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 for Zone 2.
4 Press START/PAUSE to begin cooking
in both zones.
5 When cooking is complete in the zone
with the shorter cook time, the power will
then shift to help optimize cook time in
the remaining zone.
6 Continue to monitor food, as it may finish
cooking before the set cook time ends.
7 Remove ingredients by dumping them out
or using silicone-tipped tongs/utensils.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
• How do I adjust the temperature or time while using a single zone?
When a single zone is running the time or temperature can be adjusted at any time by
pressing the up/down arrows.
• How do I adjust the temperature or time while using both zones?
Select the desired zone, then use the TEMP arrows to adjust the temperature or the
TIME arrows to adjust the time.
• Can I cook dierent foods in each zone and not worry about cross contamination?
Yes, both zones are self-contained with separate heating elements and fans.
• How do I pause or stop one zone when using both zones?
Select the zone you want to pause or stop, then press START/PAUSE.
• Is the basket safe to put on my countertop?
The basket will heat up during cooking. Use caution when handling, and place them on
heat-safe surfaces only. DO NOT place the basket on the top of the unit.
• When should I use the crisper plate?
Use the crisper plate when you want food to come out crispy. The plate elevates the
food in the basket so that air can flow under and around it to cook ingredients evenly.
• Why didn’t my food cook fully?
Make sure the basket is fully inserted during cooking. For consistent browning, make
sure ingredients are arranged in an even layer on the bottom of the basket with no
overlapping. Shake basket to toss ingredients for even crispiness. Cook temperature and
time can be adjusted at any time during cooking. Simply use the TEMP arrows to adjust
the temperature or the TIME arrows to adjust the time.
• Why is my food burned?
For best results, check progress throughout cooking and remove food when desired
level of brownness has been achieved. Remove food immediately after the cook time
ends to avoid overcooking.
• Why do some ingredients blow around when air frying?
Occasionally, the fan from the air fryer will blow lightweight foods around. Use wooden
toothpicks to secure loose lightweight food, like the top slice of bread on a sandwich.
• Can I air fry wet, battered ingredients?
Yes, but use the proper breading technique. It is important to coat foods first with flour,
then with egg, and then with bread crumbs. Press breading firmly onto the battered
ingredients, so crumbs won’t be blown o by the fan.
• Why did the display screen go black?
The unit is in standby mode. Press the power
button to turn it back on.
• Why is the unit beeping?
Either the food is done cooking, or the other zone has started cooking.
• Why is there an “E” message on the display screen?
The unit is not functioning properly. Please contact Customer Service at 1-877-646-5288.
• Why did a circuit breaker trip while using the unit?
The unit uses 1690 watts of power, so it must be plugged into an outlet on a 15-amp
circuit breaker. Using an outlet on a 10-amp breaker will cause the breaker to trip. It is
also important that the unit be the only appliance plugged into an outlet when in use.
To avoid tripping a breaker, make sure the unit is the only appliance plugged into an
outlet on a 15-amp breaker
CLEANING YOUR FLEXBASKET™ AIR FRYER
HELPFUL TIPS
1 For consistent browning, make sure
ingredients are arranged in an even
layer on the bottom of the basket
with no overlapping. If ingredients are
overlapping, make sure to shake them
halfway through cooking.
2 Cook temperature and time can be
adjusted at any time during cooking.
Simply select the zone you want to
adjust, then press the TEMP arrows
to adjust the temperature or the TIME
arrows to adjust the time.
3 To convert recipes from a traditional
oven, reduce the temperature by 25°F.
Check food frequently to avoid overcooking.
4 Occasionally, the fan from the air fryer
will blow lightweight foods around.
To alleviate this, secure foods (like the
top slice of bread on a sandwich) with
wooden toothpicks.
5 The crisper plates elevate ingredients
in the basket so air can circulate
under and around ingredients for
even, crisp results.
6 After selecting a cook function, you can
press START/PAUSE to begin cooking
immediately. The unit will run at the
default temperature and time.
7 For best results with fresh vegetables
and potatoes, use at least 1 tablespoon
of oil. Add more oil as desired to achieve
the preferred level of crispiness.
8 For best results, check progress
throughout cooking and remove food
when desired level of brownness has
been achieved. We recommend using
an instant-read thermometer to monitor
the internal temperature of proteins.
9 For best results, remove food directly after
the cook time ends to avoid overcooking.
