Air Frying Chart - Chefman TurboFry RJ38-SQSS-8T-D User Manual

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
4.
If using the divider, slide it into the basket front to back over the rack. You can divide
the basket evenly using the grooves in its center as a guide or portion it as you like.
The rubber stoppers will keep the divider in place. Press down on the divider, and
ensure it's level for a secure fit. To remove the divider, hold the basket down with
one hand, then grab the divider with the other. Twist it to tilt to one side as shown on
p. 14, then pull it out.
5.
Put the food on the rack. To allow for good air circulation, do not fill the basket past
the MAX line. Slide the basket into the air fryer.
6.
Set the time and temperature as desired, or use cooking preset functions. To set the
temperature manually, press the TIME/TEMP button until temperature displays, and
then press the plus or minus sign. To set the time, press the TIME/TEMP button until
the time displays, and then press the plus or minus sign. If cooking with presets, choose
the icon that best represents the food you're cooking and press the icon (see Chart on
p. 7 for details).
7.
Press Start. The fan will come on and circular dashes on the display will animate.
NOTE: During cooking, you can remove the basket to check on, turn, or shake foods. When
you return the basket to the unit, the timer and heating will resume where they left off.
8.
During cooking, the Shake light on the control panel will turn on, and the air fryer will beep
as a reminder to shake (or flip) food, as necessary. (See Chart, p. 7, for more details on
timing.) The Shake light will turn off immediately when the basket is removed and will go
off automatically after about 15 seconds if basket is not pulled out. (If your food does not
need to be shaken, flipped, or turned, simply ignore the warning.)
9.
When the timer is done, the air fryer will turn off automatically. Remove the basket
from the air fryer. Check food for doneness, then carefully transfer food to plates or
a platter and serve. NOTE: On first use, the unit may emit a slight odor, which is normal and
will dissipate with use.
