WARNING! This appliance generates heat and escaping steam during
use. To avoid the risk of serious injury, carefully read all instructions before
operating this appliance.
When using any electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be
observed, including the following critical information.
GENERAL SAFETY

children.
• This appliance is NOT a toy, and
children should NOT play with it.
• Children should be supervised
to ensure that they DO NOT
play with the appliance.
• This appliance is NOT intended
for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or
instruction concerning use
of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
• Unplug from outlet when not
in use, during assembly, during
disassembly, and before
cleaning. Allow to cool before
putting or taking off parts and
before cleaning.
• DO NOT use appliance other
than its intended use. For
household countertop use only.

to be operated by means of
an external timer or separate
remote-control system.
• DO NOT tamper with any of the
safety mechanisms.
• DO NOT place on or near a hot
gas, electric burner and or in
a heated oven. Heat from an
external source will damage the
appliance.
• DO NOT use the air fryer near
flammable materials such
as curtains, tablecloths, etc.
ALWAYS place and use the
unit on a flat, stable and heat-
resistant surface away from
heat sources or liquids.
• NEVER put baking or
parchment paper into the air
fryer without food on top. Air
circulation can cause paper to
lift and touch heating element.
• ALWAYS use heat-safe
containers. Be extremely
cautious if using containers that
aren’t metal or glass.
• NEVER put the appliance
against the wall or other
appliances when cooking.
There should be at least 5
inches of free space for the
back side, left/right sides and
the upper side of the appliance.
• DO NOT place anything on
top of your air fryer. DO NOT
store anything inside your air
fryer other than the included
accessories when not in use.
• To turn the unit off, press
POWER then remove plug
from the wall outlet.
• CAUTION! HOT
SURFACE: This appliance
generates heat and escaping
steam during use. Proper
precautions must be taken to
prevent the risk of burns, fires
or other injury to persons or
damage to property.
• CAUTION! This appliance
is hot during operation and
retains heat for some time
after turning OFF. ALWAYS
wear proper hand protection
when handling hot materials
and allow metal parts to cool
before cleaning. DO NOT
place anything on top of the
appliance while it is operating
or while it is hot.
• Avoid making contact with
moving parts.
• DO NOT place any combustible
materials on the cooking
chamber such as paper,
cardboard, plastic, styrofoam
or wood.
• Proper maintenance is
recommended after each use.
Refer to care and maintenance
section of this user guide. Allow
unit to cool before cleaning.
• DO NOT place oversized foods
or metal utensils into the air
fryer as they may cause fire
and/or personal injury.
• DO NOT overfill the air fryer
basket with food. Excessive
amount of food may touch the

NEVER fill the basket with oil or
fat. This could result in fire and/or
personal injury.
• To avoid risk of fire, property
damage and personal injury, DO
NOT spray cooking oil into the
cooking chamber.
• WARNING! DO NOT touch
any accessories during or
immediately after cooking.

the basket in place. Air Fryer
will not operate unless air fryer
basket is fully closed.
• To avoid personal injury,
ALWAYS use proper hand
protection and exercise caution
when adding or removing food
from the air fryer basket.
• CAUTION! After hot air
frying, the cooking tray and the
air fryer basket and the cooked

54
• DO NOT touch hot surfaces
with unprotected hands.
• CAUTION! Extreme caution
must be observed when
disposing hot oil or liquids from
the air fryer basket.
• WARNING! DO NOT turn
the air fryer basket over after
cooking as the hot cooking tray
may fall out and create a safety
hazard.
• When cooking naturally high
fat foods, DO NOT turn the air
fryer basket over after cooking
as the cooking tray may fall
out including the excess fats
collected on the basket which
can cause a safety hazard. Use
a tong to transfer food from the
basket.
• DO NOT clean with metal
scouring pads. Metal fragments
can break off the pad and touch
electrical parts, creating a risk
of electric shock.
• DO NOT rinse the appliance
under tap.
• If the appliance starts emitting
black smoke, immediately turn
off and unplug your air fryer.
White smoke is normal which
can be caused by heating fat
or food splashing. Black smoke
indicates food is burning or
there is a circuit problem.
Wait for smoke to stop before
opening the air fryer basket.
Contact customer service for
any assistance.
• If this appliance begins to
malfunction during use,
immediately pull the air fryer
basket out of the body. Then
remove plug from wall outlet.
DO NOT use or attempt to
repair the malfunctioning
appliance.
• DO NOT leave this appliance
unattended during use.
• Keep the cord out of reach of

choking.
• WARNING! After air frying,
make sure to place the air fryer
basket on a stable, level, clean,
heat-resistant and dry surface
when transferring food from
the basket.
• NEVER move a hot Air Fryer or
an Air Fryer containing hot food.
Allow to cool before moving.
• WARNING! This Air Fryer
should NOT be used to boil
water.
• WARNING! This Air Fryer
should NEVER be used to deep
fry foods.
• All users of this appliance
must read and understand
this instruction manual before
operating or cleaning this
appliance. Failure to follow any
of the important safeguards
and instructions for safe use
is a misuse of your appliance
that can void your warranty and
create the risk of serious injury.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
CAUTION: To avoid risk of electric shock, NEVER immerse the cord, plug, or
air fryer base in water or other liquids.
• DO NOT use this product
in locations with different
electrical specifications or
plug types. DO NOT operate
with any type of plug adapter
or voltage converter device,
as these may cause electrical
shorting, fire, electric shock,
personal injury or product
damage.
• DO NOT modify the plug in any
way, as doing so will void the
warranty.
• DO NOT pull, twist or mistreat
the power cord.
• The use of attachments or parts
not recommended and sold
by Nutricook may cause fire,
electric shock, personal injury,
or product damage and will void
the warranty.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by its service
agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a
hazard.
• ALWAYS POWER OFF and
UNPLUG the appliance when
it is not in use or BEFORE
cleaning.
• DO NOT allow the cord to hang
over the edge of the table or
counter. DO NOT pull, twist, or
damage the power cord. DO
NOT allow cord to touch hot
surfaces, including the stove.
• DO NOT let cord hang over
edge of table or counter, or
touch hot surfaces. The cord
can get tangled or cause
the appliance to fall. Bring it
to a qualified technician for
examination, repair or electrical
and mechanical adjustment.
• DO NOT operate this appliance
with a damaged cord or plug or
if the appliance malfunctions, or
is dropped or damaged in any
manner.
• Use of adapters and converters
is considered an unauthorized
modification of the product
and as such voids the warranty.
Use of this product in locations
with different electrical
specifications may result in
damage to the product.
• DO NOT use an extension
cord. A short power-supply
cord is used for this appliance
to reduce the risk of children
grabbing the cord and prevent
it from draping over the counter
or tabletop where it could
be accidentally pulled off or
tripped over.
PLASTICIZER WARNING
CAUTION: To prevent Plasticizers
from migrating from the finish of the
countertop or tabletop or other furniture,
place NON-PLASTIC coasters or place
mats between the appliance and the
finish of the countertop or tabletop.
Failure to do so may cause the finish to
darken; permanent blemishes may occur
or stains can appear.
Save these instructions!
