Function Description:

The Rohnson Air Fryer is a kitchen appliance designed for frying food using hot air, offering a healthier alternative to traditional deep frying. It features a control panel with various preset menus for different types of food, as well as custom settings for temperature and time. The appliance is intended for household and similar applications, including staff kitchen areas, farmhouses, hotels, motels, and bed and breakfast environments.

Important Technical Specifications:

While specific power ratings (voltage, wattage) are not explicitly listed in the provided pages, the manual indicates that the appliance operates by connecting to a power source and requires checking that the wall outlet voltage corresponds to the rating plate. The air fryer offers a temperature range for various cooking modes, with default settings such as 200°C for French fries, Chop, Chicken leg/wing, Fish, and Beefsteak, and 180°C for Bake. For dry fruit, the temperature is adjustable between 30°C and 80°C. Cooking times vary by menu, ranging from 12 minutes for Fish and Shrimp to 4 hours for Dry fruit, with adjustable ranges for most settings. The appliance includes a frying tank and a wire rack for food placement.

Food Flipping: To ensure even cooking and browning, it is recommended to open the frying basket drawer halfway through the cooking time and check, turn, or vigorously shake the food.
Safety Interlock: If the inner pot is removed during operation, the machine will power off. It will resume working if the inner pot is reloaded within 10 minutes.
Preheating: Frozen food needs to be preheated. Defrosted food should be cooked immediately.
End of Cycle: The appliance signals the end of a cooking cycle with five beeps.
Steam Release: After frying and before opening the lid, always raise the basket and wait a few seconds to allow steam pressure to subside.
First-Time Use: Before initial use, all packaging materials, labels, and stickers must be removed. Detachable parts should be washed in soapy water, rinsed, and dried. The appliance should be assembled and placed in a suitable position, away from walls or closets. Upon first connection to power, an odor or smoke may occur due to the protective film on the heating element; it is recommended to run the appliance without load for about 15 minutes in a well-ventilated room to remove this odor.

Maintenance Features:

Proper cleaning and maintenance are crucial for the longevity and safe operation of the air fryer.

Cooling Down: Always unplug the appliance and allow it to cool down thoroughly before cleaning.
Detachable Parts: The wire rack and frying tank are detachable and can be washed in hot water with detergent.
Immersion: While the detachable oil tank (frying tank) can be completely immersed in water for thorough cleaning, the main appliance itself must never be immersed in water.
Cleaning Tools: Do not use abrasive cleaning tools on the wire rack or frying tank, as this can damage the non-stick and plating coating.
Inner Wall: The inner wall of the appliance should be cleaned regularly by gently wiping off oil with a warm cotton cloth, then drying with a dry cloth.
Metal Tools: Do not clean the frying tank with any metal tools to prevent damage to its surface coating.
Drying: Ensure all parts, especially the detachable oil tank, are thoroughly dried before next use to prevent electric shock.
