Usage Features:

The Gourmia GAF652 offers a user-friendly experience with several features designed to simplify cooking:

  • Presets: Dedicated buttons for common foods like Air Fry, Fries, Wings, Bacon, Seafood, and Vegetables, as well as cooking methods like Bake, Roast, Broil, Dehydrate, Reheat, and Keep Warm. Each preset comes with default temperature and time settings, which can be further customized.
  • Preheat Function: This feature, enabled by default for many presets, preheats the air fryer to the desired temperature before cooking begins. The display shows "PrE HEAT" during preheating and "Add Food" when ready, ensuring optimal cooking results. Users can toggle this feature on or off.
  • Turn Reminder: For even cooking and crispiness, the air fryer can prompt users to turn or toss food halfway through the cook time. The display shows "turn Food" when activated. This feature is also enabled by default for certain presets and can be toggled.
  • Temperature and Time Adjustment: Users can easily increase or decrease temperature and time using the "+" and "-" icons. The "TEMP / TIME" button allows toggling between adjusting these two settings.

It also recommends preheating for best results and turning food halfway through.

  • Exterior and Interior Cleaning: The outside of the air fryer can be wiped with a moist cloth, while the inside chambers can be cleaned with hot water, dish soap, and a cleaning brush.
  • Cool-Down Period: It is recommended to allow the air fryer to cool down completely before cleaning. Removing the basket can expedite this process.
  • Storage: After cleaning and ensuring all parts are dry, the appliance should be stored in a clean, dry place.
  • Non-Stick Coating Care: Users are advised not to use metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials on the basket or crisper tray to avoid damaging the non-stick coating.
