TROUBLESHOOTING Why won't Operation my unit turn on? Make sure your unit is plugged into a functional outlet. Make sure the AirFryer basket is securely in place in the unit. Call Consumer Service at 1-800-726-0190. Some foods may require more oil than others. If not crispy enough, lightly spray, brush, or rub more oil on the food. Cooking Why are fried foods not crispy or fried evenly? 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. IMPORTANT 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.
