IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Follow basic safety precautions when using your air fryer. Read all instructions.

Key Safety Points

Illustration of a cooking air fryer with red packaging and a red X mark (no text or symbols on the device itself)

Do not touch hot surfaces.

Only press the basket release button with the baskets resting flat on any level, heat-resistant surface.

The handle is attached to the inner basket, not the outer basket. When you press the basket release button, the outer basket will drop.

Do not block any ventilation openings. Hot steam is released through openings. Keep your hands and face clear of openings.

General Safety

• Do not immerse the air fryer housing or plug in water or liquids.
  • Closely supervise children near your air fryer.
• Unplug when not in use, and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
• Do not use your air fryer if it is damaged, not working, or if the cord or plug is damaged. Contact Customer Support (see page 16).
• Do not use third-party replacement parts or accessories, as this may cause injuries.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not place the air fryer or any of its parts on a stove, near gas or electric burners, or in a heated oven.
• Be extremely cautious when moving your air fryer (or removing the baskets) if it contains hot oil or other hot liquids.
• Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Metal fragments can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electric shock.
• Do not place anything on top of your air fryer. Do not store anything inside your air fryer.
• Only use your air fryer as directed in this manual.
  • Not for commercial use. Household use only.

While Air Frying

• An air fryer works with hot air only. Never fill the baskets with oil or fat.
• Never use your air fryer without the baskets in place.
• Do not place oversized foods or metal utensils into your air fryer.

• Do not place paper, cardboard, non-heat-resistant plastic, or similar materials, into your air fryer. You may use baking paper or foil.

• Never put baking or parchment paper into the air fryer without food on top. Air circulation can cause paper to lift and touch heating coils.

• Always use heat-safe containers. Be extremely cautious if using containers that aren't metal or glass.
• Keep your air fryer away from flammable materials (curtains, tablecloths, etc). Use on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface away from heat sources or liquids.
• Immediately turn off and unplug your air fryer if you see dark smoke coming out. Food is burning. Wait for smoke to clear before pulling the baskets out.
• Do not leave your air fryer unattended while in use.

Plug and Cord

- Do not let the power cord (or any extension cord) hang over the edge of a table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

Note: This fryer uses a short power-supply cord to reduce the risk of entangling or tripping. Use extension cords with care. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be as great as the rating of the fryer (see page 3).

Electromagnetic Fields (EMF)

The Cosori Air Fryer complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled properly and according to the instructions in this user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientific evidence currently available.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR AIR FRYER

Your Cosori Air Fryer uses rapid 360° air circulation technology to cook with little-to-no oil, for quick, crispy, delicious food with up to 85% fewer calories than deep fryers. With simple dials, nonstick PFOA-free baskets, and an intuitive, safe design, the Cosori Air Fryer is the star of your kitchen.

1. Pull the handle to remove the baskets. Remove all plastic from baskets.
2. Press the basket release button to separate the inner basket from the outer basket. [Figure 1.2-1.3]

Basket Tips

• Separate baskets only to clean or after cooking.
• The button guard protects the basket release button from being pressed accidentally. Slide the button guard forward to press the basket release button.

• Never press the basket release button while carrying the baskets.

• Only press the basket release button with the baskets resting on a counter (or any level, heat-resistant surface).

• The handle is attached to the inner basket, not the outer basket. When you press the basket release button, the outer basket will drop.

Note:

• Do not unscrew the basket handle from the baskets.
  • To order accessories, please contact Customer Support (see page 16).

USING YOUR AIR FRYER

Preheating

We recommend preheating for 5 minutes before placing food inside the air fryer, unless your air fryer is already hot. Food will not cook thoroughly without preheating.

1. Plug in.

2. Turn the temperature dial at least 80^ C / 180^ F to set the temperature.

3. Turn the timer dial past the 10 minute mark until the power indicator turns on. Then turn it back to 5 minutes to begin preheating. The power indicator and temperature indicator will turn on, indicating the air fryer is heating up.

4. Once the temperature indicator turns off, the air fryer has finished preheating.

Air Frying

Note:

• Do not place anything on top of your air fryer. This disrupts airflow and causes poor air frying results. [Figure 2.1]
• An air fryer is not a deep fryer. Do not fill the baskets with oil, frying fat, or any liquid.
• When taking the baskets out of the air fryer, be careful of hot steam, and do not press the basket release button.

Illustration of a microwave oven with cylindrical components and a red X mark indicating no text or symbols on the device itself.

Figure 2.1

1. Preheat your air fryer (see page 9).
2. When the temperature light turns off, add food to the baskets.
3. Turn the temperature dial to set the temperature.
4. Turn the timer dial to set the time. The air fryer will start automatically.

Note:

• If you need to set the time for less than 10 minutes, first turn the timer dial past 10 minutes. Then to the desired time.
• Shake food halfway through cooking to make sure your food cooks evenly.
• The timer will continue counting down even if the baskets are taken out.

• You may adjust the time and temperature anytime during cooking.

• The air fryer will chime when finished.

• Take the baskets out of the air fryer, being careful of hot steam.
• Remove inner basket from outer basket to serve food. When separating baskets:
  a. Make sure the baskets are resting on a flat surface.
  b. Watch for hot oil or fat collected in the outer basket. [Figure 2.2] To avoid splashing, drain oil before replacing inner basket.
• Allow to cool before cleaning.

Automatic Shutoff

The air fryer will automatically shut off when the timer is complete.

Note: To shut off the air fryer manually, turn the timer dial anticlockwise to 0.

Shaking Food

How to Shake

During cooking, take the baskets out of the air fryer and shake, mix, or flip the food.

a. To shake food:

1. For safety purposes, hold the baskets just above a heat-resistant surface. Do not press the basket release button. [Figure 3.1]

2. Shake the baskets.

b. If the baskets are too heavy to shake:

1. Place the baskets on a heat-resistant holder or surface.

2. Separate the baskets. Make sure no liquids are dripping from the inner basket.

3. Carefully shake the inner basket.

Note: Do not use this method if there is a risk of not liquids splashing.

c. If the baskets are too heavy to shake and there are hot liquids present:

1. Place the baskets on a heat-resistant holder or surface.

2. Use tongs to mix or flip the food.

Note:

• When you take the baskets out, the air fryer will pause heating.
• When you replace the baskets, heating will automatically resume.
• Avoid shaking longer than 30 seconds, as the air fryer may start to cool down.
• The timer will continue counting down even when the baskets are taken out.

Figure 3.1

What to Shake

• Small foods that are stacked will usually need shaking, such as fries or nuggets.
• Without shaking, foods may not be crispy or evenly cooked.
• You can flip other foods, such as steak, to ensure even browning.

When to Shake

- Shake or flip food once halfway through cooking, or more if desired.

Cooking Guide

Over-Filling

• If the basket is overfilled, food will not cook evenly. [Figure 3.2]
• Food should not be filled over the "MAX" line of the inner basket. [Figure 3.3] Do not pack in food.

Figure 3.2

Figure 3.3

Using Oil

• Adding a small amount of oil to your food will make it crispier. Use no more than 30 mL / 2 US tbsp of oil.
• Oil sprays are excellent for applying small amounts of oil evenly to all food items.

French Fries

• Add 8–15 mL / 12 –1 US tbsp of oil for crispiness.
• When making fries from raw potatoes, soak uncooked fries in water for 15 minutes to remove starch prior to frying. Pat dry with a towel before adding oil.
• Cut uncooked fries smaller for crispier results. Try cutting fries into 0.6-cm by 7.6-cm strips / 14 -inch by 3-inch.

Food Tips

• You can air fry any frozen foods or goods that can be baked in an oven.
• To make cakes, hand pies, or any food with filling or batter, place food in a heat-safe container before placing in the baskets.
• Air frying high-fat foods will cause fat to drip to the bottom of the baskets. To avoid excess smoke while cooking, pour out fat drippings after cooking.
- Liquid-marinated foods create splatter and excess smoke. Pat these foods dry before air frying.

Note: For more from the Cosori Kitchen, check out our Recipe Book and Tips from the Chef.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Note:

• Always clean the air fryer baskets and interior after every use.
- Lining the outer basket with foil may make cleanup easier.

1. Turn off and unplug the air fryer. Allow it to cool completely before cleaning. Pull out the baskets for faster cooling.
2. Wipe the outside of the air fryer with a moist cloth, if necessary.
3. The baskets are dishwasher safe. You can also wash the baskets with hot, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge. Soak if necessary.

Note: Baskets have a non-stick coating. Avoid metal utensils and abrasive cleaning materials.

1. For stubborn grease:

a. In a small bowl, mix 118 mL / 12 cup of baking soda and a few tablespoons of water (1 US tbsp = 15 mL) to form a spreadable paste.
b. Use a sponge to spread the paste on the baskets and scrub. Let the baskets sit for 15 minutes before rinsing.

c. Wash baskets with soap and water before using.

1. Clean the inside of the air fryer with a slightly moist, non-abrasive sponge or cloth. Do not immerse in water.

[Figure 4.1] Clean the heating coil, if needed, to remove food debris.

1. Dry before using.

Note: Make sure that the heating coil is dry before turning on the air fryer.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Possible Solution
The air fryer will not turn on.	Make sure the air fryer is plugged in.
	Push the baskets securely into the air fryer.
Foods are not completely cooked.	Place smaller batches of ingredients into the inner basket. If the basket is overstuffed, then ingredients will be undercooked.
	Increase cooking temperature or time.
Foods are cooked unevenly.	Ingredients that are stacked on top of each other or close to each other need to be shaken or flipped during cooking (see Shaking Food, page 11).
Foods are not crispy after air frying.	Spraying or brushing a small amount of oil on foods can increase crispiness (see Cooking Guide, page 12).
French fries are not cooked correctly.	See French Fries, page 12.
Baskets will not slide into the air fryer securely.	Make sure the basket is not overfilled with food.
	Make sure the inner basket is securely inside the outer basket.
White smoke is coming out of the air fryer.	The air fryer may produce some white smoke when you use it for the first time. This is normal.
	Make sure the baskets and the inside of the air fryer are cleaned properly and not greasy.
	Cooking greasy foods will cause oil to leak into the outer basket. This oil will produce white smoke, and the baskets may be hotter than usual. This is normal, and should not affect cooking. Handle baskets with care.
Dark smoke is coming out of the air fryer.	Immediately unplug your air fryer. Food is burning. Wait for smoke to clear before pulling the baskets out.

If your problem is not listed, please contact Customer Support (see page 16).
