concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts and before
cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning. To
disconnect, turn timer knob to ZERO, then unplug power cord from outlet.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance
malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Do not attempt to replace or
splice a damaged cord. Return appliance to the manufacturer (see warranty) for
examination, repair or adjustment.

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

Models with polarized plugs:
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider than the
other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock,
this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If
the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature
or modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC
outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
POWER CORD INSTRUCTIONS:
A short power-supply cord or detachable power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable
power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use. If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:
a. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as
great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
b. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally; and
c. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set or extension cord should be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord.
Do not pull, twist or otherwise abuse the power cord.
NOTICES
1. Some countertop and table surfaces are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat
generated by certain appliances. Do not set the heated unit on a finished wood table.
We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet under your Air Fryer to prevent possible
damage to the surface.
2. During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor may be detected.
This is normal and should go away after a few uses.
