1 This appliance can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience
and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and
understand the hazards involved.
2 Keep the appliance and its cord out of reach of children. DO NOT allow the appliance to be used by children. Close
supervision is necessary when used near children.
3 To eliminate a choking hazard for young children, remove and discard the protective cover fitted on the power plug of
this appliance.
4 Children shall not play with the appliance.

6 NEVER use electrical socket below counter.
7 NEVER connect this appliance to an external timer switch or separate remote-control system.
8 DO NOT use an extension cord. A short power-supply cord is used to reduce the risk of children grabbing the cord or
becoming entangled and to reduce the risk of people tripping over a longer cord.
9 To protect against electrical shock DO NOT immerse cord, plugs, or main unit housing in water or other liquid. Cook only

plug. If the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any way, immediately stop use and call Customer Service.
11 ALWAYS ensure the appliance is properly assembled before use.
12 DO NOT cover the air intake vent or air socket vent while unit is operating. Doing so will prevent even cooking and may
damage the unit or cause it to overheat.
13 Before placing removable ceramic-coated basket into the main unit, ensure basket and unit are clean and dry by
wiping with a soft cloth.
14 This appliance is for household use only. DO NOT use this appliance for anything other than its intended use. DO NOT

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 the set cook time.
2 Cook time and temperature can be
adjusted at any time during cooking.
Simply press the up and down TIME or
TEMP arrow buttons to adjust the time
or temperature.
3 To convert recipes from a conventional
oven, reduce the temperature of the air
fryer by 25°F. Check food frequently to
avoid overcooking.
4 We recommend 3 minutes of preheating.
You can use the built-in timer to set a
3-minute countdown.
5 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 toothpicks.
6 The crisper plate elevates ingredients
in the basket so air can circulate under
and around them for consistent,
crisp results.
7 For best results, remove food
immediately after the cook time is
complete to avoid overcooking.
8 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.
9 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
internal temperature of proteins. After
the cook time is complete, remove food
immediately to avoid overcooking.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
• Why won’t the temperature go any higher?
The max temperature is 400˚F for all functions.
• How long does it take to preheat, and how will I know when it’s done?
We recommend 3 minutes of preheating. To preheat, select desired function and
temperature, set time to 3 minutes, and press START/PAUSE.
• Should I add the ingredients before or after preheating?
For best results, let the unit preheat for 3 minutes before adding ingredients.
• When should I use Max Crisp instead of Air Fry?
For best results, use Max Crisp when cooking prepackaged frozen foods such as French
fries or chicken nuggets.
• Do I need to defrost frozen foods before air frying?
It depends on the food. Follow package instructions.
• How do I pause the countdown?
Pressing START/PAUSE during cooking will pause the cooking function.
• Is the basket safe to put on my countertop?
The basket will heat during cooking. Use caution when handling, and place
on heat-safe surfaces only.
• How do I know when to 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 air can flow under it to cook ingredients evenly.
• My food didn’t cook.
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 loose ingredients for consistent crispiness. Cook time
and temperature can be adjusted at any time during cooking. Simply press the TIME or
TEMP arrow buttons until the desired adjustment is shown on the control panel display.
• My food is 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
is complete 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
toothpicks to secure loose lightweight food, like the top slice of bread on a sandwich.
• Can I air fry fresh 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. Be sure to press the bread crumbs onto the
food so they stick in place. Loose breading may be blown o by the unit’s powerful fan.
• Why is the unit beeping?
The cooking function is complete.
• The screen went black.
The unit is in standby mode. Press the power button to turn it back on.
• An “E” message appears on display screen.
The unit is not functioning properly. Please contact Customer Service at 1-877-646-5288.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
• Why won’t the temperature go any higher?
The max temperature is 400˚F for all functions.
• How long does it take to preheat, and how will I know when it’s done?
We recommend 3 minutes of preheating. To preheat, select desired function and
temperature, set time to 3 minutes, and press START/PAUSE.
• Should I add the ingredients before or after preheating?
For best results, let the unit preheat for 3 minutes before adding ingredients.
• When should I use Max Crisp instead of Air Fry?
For best results, use Max Crisp when cooking prepackaged frozen foods such as French
fries or chicken nuggets.
• Do I need to defrost frozen foods before air frying?
It depends on the food. Follow package instructions.
• How do I pause the countdown?
Pressing START/PAUSE during cooking will pause the cooking function.
• Is the basket safe to put on my countertop?
The basket will heat during cooking. Use caution when handling, and place
on heat-safe surfaces only.
• How do I know when to 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 air can flow under it to cook ingredients evenly.
• My food didn’t cook.
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 loose ingredients for consistent crispiness. Cook time
and temperature can be adjusted at any time during cooking. Simply press the TIME or
TEMP arrow buttons until the desired adjustment is shown on the control panel display.
• My food is 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
is complete 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
toothpicks to secure loose lightweight food, like the top slice of bread on a sandwich.
• Can I air fry fresh 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. Be sure to press the bread crumbs onto the
food so they stick in place. Loose breading may be blown o by the unit’s powerful fan.
• Why is the unit beeping?
The cooking function is complete.
• The screen went black.
The unit is in standby mode. Press the power button to turn it back on.
• An “E” message appears on display screen.
The unit is not functioning properly. Please contact Customer Service at 1-877-646-5288.
