Cooking Tips
• Preheating is an important part of food preparation. Wait for the display
to read Add Food before inserting food into the cooking chamber.
• Flip or rotate food when the display indicates turn Food to ensure
even cooking.
• When cooking coated food, choose breadcrumb batters over
liquid-based batters to ensure that the batter will stick to the food.
• To ensure seasoning adheres to food, spray food items with cooking
oil before adding seasoning.
• Soak fresh potato sticks in ice water for 15 minutes, pat dry and spray
lightly with cooking oil before inserting them to the Air Fryer.
• When baking cake, pie, quiche and similar foods, use an oven-safe baking
dish covered with foil or an oven-safe lid to prevent the top of foods from
overcooking.
• Pat moist food items dry before cooking to prevent excess steam
and splatter.
• Air frying can cause oil and fat to drip from foods. To prevent excess
smoke, carefully remove and drain the Air Fryer Basket periodically
throughout cooking.
