• Set an appropriate temperature with the knob. The air fryer comes with recommendations for cooking times and temperature required for frozen foods and room temperature foods
• Set the cooking time using the timer nub. After setting the timer, a red light comes up. This is the heating light.
• If the appliance is cold, you might want to add extra 3 minutes to your cooking time to enable it to heat up before heating the food. If you don’t want to do this, you can preheat the appliance by turning the timer knob to 3 minutes and waiting till the countdown stops and the red light goes off. Now you can start cooking.
• When it gets to half of the cooking time, if you desire to shake the ingredients, you can pull the pan out by its handle and shake it before putting it back in the fryer.
• Once the countdown ends, the red light goes off. Carefully remove the pan at this point to check the food.
• Ensure the food is well cooked. If it isn’t, put it back for a few more minutes. Afterward, empty the basket into a plate using gloves or a tong.
• If there is another batch of food to be cooked, place it in the empty basket and set the cooking time. At this point, you do not need to pre-heat the air fryer as it is already hot.
• Excess fluid from the food can be found at the bottom of the pan. To discard this fluid, remove the basket using the ‘basket release button’. Pour out the liquid, and put the basket back in the pan and the pan back in the air fryer.
