- Page 6 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS WARNING: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way or force it into the outlet. This could result in injury or electric shock. SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards of entanglement 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 longer detachable power-supply extension cord is used: The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. 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.
- Page 7 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS POWER CORD SAFETY TIPS Never pull or yank on cord or the appliance. To insert plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into outlet. To disconnect appliance, grasp plug and remove it from outlet. Before each use, inspect the power cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If any are found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced, and the power cord replaced. Please contact Chefman Support for assistance. ® Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place undue stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break. DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE POWER CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE OR IF APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY. Do not place the appliance on a stovetop or any other heatable surface.

Page 11: Operating Instructions
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE FIRST USE For best results, follow these steps before using your TurboFry Touch Air Fryer for the ® first time. Remove all packaging materials, such as plastic bags and foam inserts. Read and remove any stickers on the unit except for the rating label on the bottom, which should remain on the unit. Check to ensure that all parts and accessories are accounted for. Wipe down the interior and exterior with a damp cloth. Wash the basket and basket rack with warm, soapy water. Dry thoroughly. The basket and rack are also top-rack dishwasher safe. HOW TO COOK IN THE TURBOFRY TOUCH AIR FRYER ® The air fryer’s high-speed fan cooks your favorite foods quickly. The rack in the basket allows air to circulate around foods for even cooking and crisping and lets excess fat drip down and away from foods for healthier eating. CAUTION: Never fill the basket with oil. Unlike deep fryers, air fryers require little to no oil to produce a crisp texture. If you choose to use oil, toss foods with just a little in a separate bowl before cooking in the air fryer. Prepare the food(s) you plan to air fry. Place the air fryer on a hard, flat surface and plug it in. The control panel will illuminate, and the default temperature and time will alternate on the display. Pull out the basket and insert the basket rack. (For easiest handling of the basket rack, pinch the center grip bar with thumb and index finger.) CAUTION: Never spray the basket or rack with cooking oil from an aerosol spray can, which includes harsh components that can cause chipping of the nonstick coating. However, you can oil the tray or spray it with oil from a non-aerosol mister. - Page 12 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Put the food on the rack. Do not let it surpass the MAX line embossed on the basket. Slide the basket into the air fryer. Set the time and temperature as desired or use pre-set cooking parameters. To manually set the temperature, press the TEMP/TIME button until the temperature displays, and then press the plus or minus sign button. To manually set the time, press the TEMP/TIME button until the time displays and then press the plus or minus sign button. 6b. To cook with pre-set cooking parameters, choose the icon that best represents the food you’re cooking and press the icon button. This will set the pre-programmed time and temperature (see Chart on p. 7 for details). NOTE: Pressing STOP/CANCEL when the unit is not active will cancel the selected preset and return the unit to the air fry default. Press START. The interior light will automatically come on and stay on during cooking. 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 it left off. To stop cooking before the timer ends, press STOP/CANCEL. 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.) 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, unit may emit a slight odor, which is normal and will dissipate with use.

Page 13: Air Fryer Cooking Tips
AIR FRYER COOKING TIPS Preheat the air fryer for 5 minutes before cooking. While not necessary, preheating the unit will cook foods faster and promote crisp results. If the unit is cold, add a few minutes to your expected cooking time. CAUTION: Be careful when adding food after preheating as inside of fryer will be hot. For a crisp exterior, oil foods lightly. Some foods, especially if fresh, benefit from being tossed with a little oil in a separate bowl before frying. However, high-fat foods like a well marbled steak, or prepared foods, usually require no additional oil. Avoid wet batters. Loose batters, such as those used for deep frying, do not work in air fryers, as the batter simply slides off. Adapt such recipes to give foods a thicker coating, preferably including breadcrumbs to help the coating adhere. Use medium-high to high heat for most cooking. Most foods will air fry best between 325°F and 400°F. For gentler cooking and reheating, use a lower temperature to avoid overcooking. Don’t overcrowd the basket. -
Page 14: Troubleshooting Faqs
TROUBLESHOOTING FAQS Why is there white smoke coming from my unit? White smoke can be a sign that there’s too much fat in the fryer. Avoid cooking very fatty foods, such as sausages, in the air fryer, and be sure the interior of the unit, the basket and the rack are clean before cooking. Why has my food cooked unevenly? Two culprits are likely: overcrowding and not shaking. Fill basket loosely with food to let air circulate and shake, toss, or flip foods at least once during cooking for more even results. Why isn’t my food crisp? Though you can air fry with no added oil, coating foods very lightly with oil (usually just ½ teaspoon per batch for most recipes) helps guarantee crisp results. Preheating the fryer also helps. -
Page 15: Cleaning And Maintenance
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE The nonstick coating on the basket and rack makes the air fryer easy to clean following the steps below. Unplug unit and let cool completely before cleaning. (For faster cooling, take hot basket out of the unit.) To remove the cooled rack from basket, pinch the center grip bar at the bottom of the basket, and pull rack straight up and out of basket. WARNING: Do not lift rack out of basket when hot or injury can occur. Wash the basket and rack with warm soapy water, rinse, and dry well with a towel for best results. Basket and rack are also top-rack dishwasher-safe. 4. Wipe down the outside and the inside of the unit with a damp cloth as needed. Do not put the unit in the dishwasher or submerge in water or any other liquid. Do not use abrasive cleansers on basket, rack, exterior, or interior, or you could damage the finishes. -
