Operation

Why won’t my unit

turn on?

Make sure your unit is plugged into a functional

outlet.

Make sure the oven door is closed.

Call Consumer Service at

1-800-726-0190.

Cooking

Why is my food

not crispy or fried

evenly?

Some foods may require more oil than others. If not

crispy enough, spray, brush or add some oil on the

food.

Make sure food is spread evenly in one single layer

in the AirFryer Basket with no overlap. If food still

overlaps, toss or flip food halfway through cooking

cycle.

Food may need additional cooking time. Make sure

to check periodically until food reaches desired

brownness.

Do not leave oven unattended.

Why is my food

undercooked?

If you put too much food in the basket, try with

smaller batches of food and single layers, rather than

stacking food on top of each other.

The temperature might be too low. Use the Selector

Dial to increase temperature.

Food may need additional cooking time. Make sure

to check periodically until food reaches desired

brownness. Do not leave oven unattended.

Why is my food

overcooked or

burned?

Cooking time and temperature may need to be

reduced – start checking foods about 5 to 10 minutes

before the end of the suggested cooking time.

Make sure food is spread evenly in one single layer

in the AirFryer Basket with no overlap. If food still

overlaps, toss or flip food halfway through cooking

cycle.

Why does

condensation and

steam come out

of my unit?

When preparing greasy foods, oil may leak into the

pan and it produces steam. This will not affect the

unit or the end result. It may fog up the viewing

window on the sides or corners.

When preparing foods with a high moisture content,

the water evaporates out of the food and causes

condensation. This will not affect the unit or the end

result. It may fog up the viewing window on the sides

or corners.

The pan, basket, or bottom oven may contain grease

residue from previous use. Make sure all accessories

and oven parts are properly cleaned after each use.

Cleaning

Are the parts

dishwasher safe?

Accessories are not dishwasher safe; hand-wash

with warm, sudsy water.

How do I clean

tough-to-remove

food residue from

my accessories?

To remove baked-on grease, soak the accessories in

hot, sudsy water or use a nonabrasive cleanser.
