IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electric appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed:

1. Read all instructions.
2. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children younger than 8) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have supervision.
3. Check if the voltage indicated on the appliance corresponds to the local main voltage before you connect the appliance.
4. Do not use the appliance if the plug, the main cord, or the appliance itself is damaged. Always make sure that the plug is inserted properly into a wall outlet.
5. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, after the appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.
6. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be done by children unless they are older than 8 and supervised.
7. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
8. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cords, plugs, or appliances in water or other liquid. Do not plug in the appliance or operate the control panel with wet hands.
9. Never connect this appliance to an external timer switch or separate remote-control system in order to avoid a hazardous situation. To disconnect, turn off the appliance, then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
10. Do not place the appliance on or near combustible materials such as a tablecloth or curtain. The accessible surfaces may become hot during use. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven. 11. Do not place the appliance against a wall or against other appliances. Leave at least 4 inches of free space on the back and sides and 4 inches of free space above the appliance. Do not place anything on top of the appliance.

12. Do not let the appliance operate unattended. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
13. Do not use outdoors.
14. Do not touch the hot surfaces; use a handle. During air frying, hot steam is released through the air outlet openings. Keep your hands and face at a safe distance from the steam and from the air outlet openings. Also, be careful of hot steam and air when you remove the pan from the appliance.
15. After using the appliance, avoid contact with the hot metal inside. Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before cleaning the appliance.

COOKING TIPS

PREHEATING

• For best results: preheat the air fryer oven for 5 minutes to the desired temperature.
• When cooking multiple batches, only preheat before the first batch.
• Preheating is not required when using Toast and Warm functions.

COOKING SETTINGS

• Air fryer ovens perform similarly to convection ovens, refer to oven instructions on item packaging or recipe.

AIR FRYING TIPS

• Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the air fryer oven.
• Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger ingredients.
• Add 1-2 teaspoons of oil to foods for a crispier result. Turning or tossing food halfway through cooking time will deliver
  evenly browned and crispy results.

CONVECTION TIPS TIPS

ON USING THE CONVECTION SETTING
Because convection cooks foods faster and is hotter, you can reduce the cooking temperature by 25°, and check for doneness three-quarters of the way through the cook time. Foods that are covered benefit from the convection’s even heat and will cook faster without any moisture loss.

The high-temperature air circulation produces roasted foods that are golden brown on the outside and juicy and tender on the inside. Even cooking means that you can use more than one rack and you do not have to turn foods or rotate baking trays. Below are foods that benefit from the convection setting and when to use it: Convection Bake: Pies, pastries, cookies, biscuits

For Pizza:

• Use the lower rack position and check often so the cheese does not burn.
• Start with no convection and then turn on convection for the last few minutes to brown cheese.

Convection Broil:
Meat, fish, for melting cheese, for browning the top of casseroles

Not recommended for:
Custards and flans, souffles, cakes, quickbreads, breads

Additional tips:

• Make sure air can circulate around food and pans.
• Use trays, roasting pans, and baking pans with lower sides.
• Do not cover the oven shelves with foil.
