Shaking the food half way through process

To get the most out of your Air fryer and the best results, it is always recommended to shake or turn upside down the food half way through the process to get an evenly cooked final result. But most of the times it is not easy to remember to stop the air fryer, shake the food and start again.

Auto reminder function to shake the food in halfway through process

So, this model of air fryer has "auto reminder" function, which reminds you with the help of simply "5" times beep signal and control panel flashing with "000" for about 20s to shake or stir the food.

Functioning of the auto reminder function

The automatic reminder function is preestablished on the fryer. Assuming a 12-minute menu has been set. During the first 1/2 of the time (6 minutes) it will do the normal cooking and when 1/2 (6 minutes) of time remained left, the display will show "000", it will begin to flash for about 20 seconds and a beep sound comes for "5" Times to remind you that you can shake or stir the food. This is time to remove the basket from the fryer. Once removed, the process will stop and the front panel will turn off. Stir the food and place the air fryer basket back into its position and the air fryer activates automatically in order to complete the cooking process where it had left off. And in case if you don't want to stir the food, after 20sec. till the cooking process was suspended, the fryer starts working until the completion of the cooking procedure.

Note: Preheat the air fryer for 5 minutes before preparing any type of dish. The above default data are for reference only, the user can adjust the desired temperature and time as required.

Tips
