If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similar qualified person in order to avoid hazard.
Have a qualified electrician install a grounded outlet near the appliance if the power cord is too short. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled or tripping over a longer power cord.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
AIR FRYING CHART
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 cooked at one time, the thickness or density of the food and whether the food is fresh, thawed or frozen may alter the cooking time necessary.
To ensure even cooking, open the frying basket halfway through the cooking time. Check, turn or vigorously shake foods in the frying basket. This chart lists average cooking times and what action should be taken for best results.
Frying in smaller batches will result in shorter cooking times and higher food quality. Adjust cooking times and temperatures as desired.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Unless food is prepackaged and oiled, all food should be lightly oiled before air frying for browned and crispy results. Oil may be sprayed or brushed onto foods. Make sure food is dry before adding oil. Cut food into smaller pieces to create more surface area and achieve crispier results.
NOTE: Blanching is a term that refers to cooking foods at a lower temperature before the final air fry.
Add 5 minutes to the air frying time to allow the appliance to preheat.
Important Temperature Notes
The USDA recommends that meats should be cooked to the following internal temperatures to ensure food is cooked thoroughly.
- Beef / lamb: 145°F
- Pork: 160^ F
- Poultry: 170 - 180°F
• Reheating poultry: 165°F
