IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Key Safety Points
- Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handle.
- Use caution when turning the basket over after cooking, as the hot crisper plate may fall out and create a safety hazard.
- Do not block any ventilation openings. Hot steam is released through openings. Keep your hands and face clear of openings. To replace the brush roll cover, align the slot on the cover with the tab (Fig. 6) and snap the cover into place. Replace 6 screws (Fig. 7).
General Safety
- To protect against electric shock, do not immerse the air fryer housing, cord, or plug in water or liquid.
- Closely supervise children near your air fryer.
- Unplug when not in use, and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
- Do not use your air fryer if it is damaged, not working, or if the cord or plug is damaged. Contact Customer Support (see page 19).
- Do not use third-party replacement parts or accessories, as this may cause injuries.
- Do not use outdoors.
- Do not place the air fryer or any of its parts on a stove, near gas or electric burners, or in a heated oven.
- Be extremely cautious when moving your air fryer (or removing the basket) if it contains hot oil or other hot liquids.
- Always place the crisper plate on a heat-resistant surface after removing it 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.
- This air fryer 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 the use of the air fryer by a person responsible for their safety.
While Baking
- Never use your bread maker without the bread pan in place.
- Do not place oversized foods or metal utensils in your bread maker.
- Do not place paper, cardboard, non-heat-resistant plastic, or similar materials into your bread maker.
- Do not touch any moving or spinning parts. Keep hands and utensils away from moving blades or discs while kneading dough to reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the bread maker. A scraper may be used only when the bread maker is not running.
- Make sure the lid is securely in place before operating the bread maker.
- Keep your bread maker away from flammable materials (curtains, tablecloths, etc). Use on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface away from heat sources or liquids.
Plug & Cord
- Your bread maker has a polarized plug (one prong is wider than the other), which fits into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, do not use the plugin that outlet. Do not alter the plug in any way.
- Do not let the power cord (or any extension cord) hang over the edge of a table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
- Your bread maker should only be used with 120V, 60Hz electrical systems. Do not plug into another type of outlet.
Note: This bread maker uses a short power-supply cord to reduce the risk of entangling or tripping. Use extension cords with care. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be as great as the rating of the bread maker.
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF)
The Cosori Bread Maker complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled properly and according to the instructions in this user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientific evidence available today.

Adding Ingredients

The bread maker will beep 5 times to notify you. The display will show “Add” for 5 minutes while kneading continues in case you miss the initial beeps.
Cooking Guide
Tips
- Lightly coat the kneading blade with nonstick cooking spray or vegetable oil to make the blade easier to remove in case it gets stuck in the loaf.
- Add ingredients in the following order: liquids, butter, dry ingredients, then yeast. Ideally, the yeast should not touch the wet ingredients.
- Instant yeast and active dry yeast cause the bread to have different rising times. Instant yeast is much quicker and proves faster, while active dry yeast is slower and needs to be dissolved in water to activate.
- Scrape down the sides of the bread pan to ensure the flour and ingredients are fully incorporated into the dough.
- When baking in higher altitudes, use less flour. Flour absorbs more liquid in high altitudes. The dough also rises faster in higher altitudes, so use 1/3 less yeast. Adding a little more salt will promote slower, more even rising. Add no more than 1⁄4 teaspoon of additional salt. Try one or all of these changes to determine which gives you the best results.
- When baking is done, use a thermometer to see if your bread has reached 190°F to confirm your bread is completely cooked.
- Allow bread to cool for a minimum of 30 minutes before slicing
Quick Bread
Quick breads are made with baking powder and baking soda, which are activated by moisture and heat. For best results, all liquids should be placed in the bottom of the bread pan, with dry ingredients on top. During the initial mixing, butter and dry ingredients may collect in the corners of the pan. If this happens, pause the bread maker and scrape down the sides of the bread pan, using a rubber spatula to avoid scratching the nonstick coating.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
Note: Always clean the bread pan and bread maker interior after every use.
- Turn off and unplug the bread maker. Allow it to cool completely before cleaning. Use oven mitts to pull out the bread pan for faster cooling.
- Wipe the outside of the bread maker with a moist cloth, if necessary.
- The bread pan and kneading blade are dishwasher safe. You can also wash both with hot, soapy water and a nonabrasive sponge. Soak if necessary.
Note: The bread pan has a nonstick coating. Avoid using metal utensils and abrasive cleaning materials. - If necessary, clean the inside of the bread maker with a slightly moist, non-abrasive sponge or cloth. Do not immerse in water. [Figure 3.1]
- Dry before using.
