TIPS & TRICKS
1 We recommend 3 minutes of preheating. You can use the built-in timer to set
a 3-minute countdown.
2 To convert recipes designed for conventional ovens, reduce the temperature of the
Air Fryer by 25°F. Check food frequently to avoid overcooking.
3 When cooking a smaller quantity of food, cook for less time. When cooking a larger
quantity of food, cook for more time. Always check food frequently.
4 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.
5 Use the crisper plate when you want food to come out crispy. The crisper plate elevates
food in the basket, allowing air to go under the plate and evenly crisp ingredients.
6 Make sure the basket is fully inserted during cooking. For consistent browning, arrange
ingredients in an even layer on the bottom of the basket with no overlapping.
7 Cook time and temperature can also be adjusted at any time during cooking. Simply
press the up and down
or arrows to adjust the time or temperature.
8 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 the internal temperature of proteins. Remove food
immediately after the cook time is complete to avoid overcooking.
9 Occasionally, the fan from the air fryer will blow lightweight food around. To alleviate
this, secure food (like the top slice of bread on a sandwich) with toothpicks.
