Cooking

Why are fried

foods not crispy

or fried evenly?

Some foods may require more oil than others. If not crispy

enough, lightly spray, brush, or rub more oil on the food.

Make sure food is spread evenly in a single layer in the

AirFryer basket with no overlap. If food still overlaps, toss

or flip food halfway through cooking cycle; use the Toss

Reminder for an audio alert.

Put the food in for additional cooking time. Make sure to

check frequently until food reaches desired brownness.

Why is

my food

undercooked?

If you put too much food in the basket, it may not cook in the

suggested time. Try using smaller batches of food and single

layers, rather than stacking food items on top of each other.

If the temperature is too low, the food may not fully cook.

For AirFrying, the ideal temperature is around 400ºF.

Cleaning

How do I clean

tough-to-remove

food residue from

the basket/

crisper plate?

To remove baked-on grease, soak the accessories in hot,

sudsy water or use a nonabrasive cleaner. We recommend

hand-washing these parts in hot, sudsy water with a nylon

scouring pad or nylon brush and then thoroughly rinsing them,

or washing in a dishwasher.

Error

code

Why am I seeing

an “out” error code

on the display?

If “out” is flashing on your display, make sure the AirFry basket

is securely in place before selecting a function or preset.

This chart recommends cooking times, temperatures, and portions for foods that

can be cooked in the Cuisinart

®

Basket AirFryer. If portions exceed recommenda-

tions, toss or flip foods while cooking to ensure the crispiest, most even results.

Smaller amounts of food may require less time. For best AirFry results, periodically

check on food through viewing window.

Do not discard. Read before operating your new Cuisinart

®

Basket AirFryer. Keep for

further reference. These helpful hints are intended to be a supplement to the Instruction

Booklet. In order to ensure proper operation and optimum performance, please read the
