Frequently Asked Questions - KA65LKNFRYA Kogan

Do I need to preheat the air fryer?

Yes, it is recommended to add an additional 5 minutes to the cooking time to allow the air fryer to preheat if it is cold.

Can I use oil in the air fryer?

Yes, lightly oiling foods before air frying helps achieve browning and crispiness. Use an oil spray or brush a small amount of oil onto the food.

Yes, frozen foods like fries, chicken nuggets, and fish sticks can be cooked directly. Adjust cooking time and temperature according to the chart in the manual.

How do I know when the food is cooked?

Use a meat thermometer to check internal temperatures. Refer to the internal temperature chart in the manual for safe cooking guidelines.

What should I do if the air fryer does not turn on?

Ensure the frying basket drawer is fully closed. The air fryer will not operate unless the drawer is properly locked. Also check that the timer is set to a time above 0.

Tips:

• Olive oil spray or vegetable oil works well for air frying.

• Do not overfill the frying basket with food. Never fill any frying basket more than 1/2 full.

• For best results, some foods need to be shaken vigorously or turned over half-way through cooking.

• To avoid excess smoke, when cooking naturally high fat foods, such as chicken wings or sausages, it may be necessary to empty fat from the frying basket drawer between batches.
  • Always pat food dry before cooking to encourage browning and avoid excess smoke.

• Air fry small batches of freshly breaded foods. Press breading onto food to help it adhere. Arrange in frying basket so that food is not touching to allow air flow on all surfaces.
• The Air Fryer can be used to reheat food. Set the temperature to 140^ C for up to 10 minutes.

Cooking Guide

WARNING: Always use a meat thermometer to ensure that meat, poultry and fish are cooked thoroughly before eating.

The following chart is intended as a guide only. The quantity of food air fried at one time, the thickness or density of the food and whether the food is fresh, thawed or frozen may alter the total cooking time necessary.

1. To assure even cooking/browning, open the frying basket drawer halfway through the cooking. Check, turn or vigorously shake foods in the frying basket. This chart lists average total air frying time, the time at which some action is required and what action is to be taken for best results.
2. Remember, frying smaller batches will result in shorter cooking times and higher food quality. Adjust air frying temperatures and times as necessary to suit your taste.

Note: Unless food is pre-packaged and pre-oiled, for browned and crispy results, all foods should be lightly oiled before air frying.

• Oil may be sprayed or brushed onto foods.
• Spray oils work well as oil is evenly distributed and smaller quantities of oil are needed.
• To ensure crispy results, make sure foods is dried before adding oil.
• Cut pieces smaller to create more surface area for crispier results.
• Add an additional 5 minutes to the AIR FRY TIME to allow the Air Fryer to preheat.

NOTES

The Ground Truth image displays a single, solid horizontal line. According to Rule 2 (UNDERSCORE & LINE RULES), this is a stylistic or background line, not a placeholder underscore. Therefore, the OCR result must ignore it and output nothing or only meaningful text. The provided OCR content is "____", which consists of four underscores. This is an incorrect interpretation of the line as a fill-in-the-blank placeholder, violating the rule that stylistic lines must be ignored. The OCR has hallucinated underscores where none should exist based on the GT's visual context. Hence, the OCR result is inconsistent with the Ground Truth.

The Ground Truth image displays a single, continuous horizontal line, which is a stylistic or background element (like a ruled paper line). According to Rule 2, such lines must be ignored by the OCR result. The OCR content provided is "", which consists of no characters. Since the OCR output correctly ignores the background/stylistic line and produces no actual text, it complies with the “Stylistic/Background Lines (Ignore)” rule. Therefore, the OCR result is consistent with the Ground Truth.
