appliance on a stable, non-combustible, level surface.
• DO NOT place the appliance on or close to a hot gas or electric
burner, or a heated oven.

User Manual
• DO NOT use the appliance for anything other than household use.
It is not intended for commercial use.
• DO NOT leave the appliance unattended while in use.
• DO NOT use the appliance for more than 60 minutes in a
2-hour period.
Air frying cautions
When the appliance is in operation, hot air is released through the
air vents. Keep your hands and face at a safe distance from the air
vents and take extreme caution when removing hot accessories
from the appliance. Failure to do so may result in personal injury
or property damage.
While cooking, the internal temperature of the appliance reaches
several hundred degrees. To avoid personal injury, never place
unprotected hands inside the appliance until it has cooled to
room temperature.
• DO NOT use a ceramic-coated or stoneware pot (such as
CorningWare stoneware) for air frying.
• DO NOT block the vents on the appliance. Leave at least 5 in / 13 cm
of space around the appliance when in use.
• DO NOT place the appliance on a hot stove.
• DO NOT operate the appliance on or near combustible materials
such as tablecloths and curtains.
• DO NOT cover the air vents while the appliance is in operation.
Doing so will prevent even cooking and may cause damage to
the appliance.
• DO NOT overfill the appliance. Overfilling may cause food to contact
the heating element, which may result in fire, property damage,
and/or personal injury.
• DO NOT pour oil into the cooking container. If needed, spray food
lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Using cooking oil could result
in personal injury and/or property damage.

WARRANTY
One (1) Year Limited Warranty
This One (1) Year Limited Warranty applies to purchases made from authorized retailers
of Instant Brands LLC (“Instant Brands”) by the original appliance owner and is not
transferable. Proof of original purchase date and, if requested by Instant Brands, return
of your appliance, is required to obtain service under this Limited Warranty. Provided the
appliance was used in accordance with the use & care instructions, Instant Brands will,
in its sole and exclusive discretion, either: (i) repair defects in materials or workmanship;
or (ii) replace the appliance. In the event that your appliance is replaced, the Limited
Warranty on the replacement appliance will expire twelve (12) months from the date of
receipt. Failure to register your product will not reduce your warranty rights. The liability
of Instant Brands, if any, for any allegedly defective appliance or part will not exceed the
purchase price of a comparable replacement appliance.
What is not covered by this warranty?
• Products purchased, used, or operated outside of the United States and Canada.
• Products that have been modified or attempted to be modified.
• Damage resulting from accident, alteration, misuse, abuse, neglect, unreasonable
use, use contrary to the operating instructions, normal wear and tear, commercial
use, improper assembly, disassembly, failure to provide reasonable and necessary
maintenance, fire, flood, acts of God, or repair by anyone unless directed by an
Instant Brands representative.
• Use of unauthorized parts and accessories.
• Incidental and consequential damages.
• The cost of repair or replacement under these excluded circumstances.
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN AND TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, INSTANT BRANDS MAKES NO WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS OR
REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BY STATUTE, USAGE, CUSTOM OF TRADE
OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLIANCES OR PARTS COVERED BY THIS
WARRANTY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS, OR

User Manual
Some states or provinces do not allow for: (1) the exclusion of implied warranties of
merchantability or fitness; (2) limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts; and/or
(3) the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages; so these
limitations may not apply to you. In these states and provinces, you have only the implied
warranties that are expressly required to be provided in accordance with applicable
law. The limitations of warranties, liability, and remedies apply to the maximum extent
permitted by law. This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also
have other rights which vary from state to state or province to province.

back of your appliance) and serial number (found on the bottom of your appliance) along
with your name and email address. The registration will enable us to keep you up to date

safety notification. By registering, you acknowledge that you have read and understand
the instructions for use, and warnings set forth in the accompanying instructions.
