IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

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

Key Safety Points

• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handle.
• Use caution when turning the basket over after cooking, as the hot crisper plate may fall out and create a safety hazard.
• Do not block any ventilation openings. Hot steam is released through openings. Keep your hands and face clear of openings.

General Safety

• To protect against electric shock, do not immerse the air fryer housing, cord, or plug in water or liquid.
• 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.
• 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 basket) if it contains hot oil or other hot liquids.
• Always place the crisper plate on a heat-resistant surface after removing it from the basket.
• 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.
• This air fryer is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the air fryer by a person responsible for their safety.
• Do not allow children to clean or perform maintenance on the air fryer unless they are supervised
• 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 basket with oil or fat.
• Never use your air fryer without the basket in place.
• Do not place oversized foods or metal utensils into your air fryer.
• Do not overfill the air fryer basket. Heaping amounts of food may touch the heating coils and cause a fire hazard.
• Do not touch accessories (including the crisper plate) during or immediately after air frying.
• Do not place paper, cardboard, non-heat-resistant plastic, or similar materials, into your air fryer.
• 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. White smoke is normal, caused by heating fat or food splashing, but dark smoke means that food is burning or there is a circuit problem. Wait for the smoke to clear before pulling the basket out. If the cause was not burnt food, contact Customer Support.
• To turn the air fryer off, press the On/Off button () once. The air fryer will beep, and all buttons will shut off except the On/Off button, which will turn orange.
• Do not leave your air fryer unattended while in use.

Power & Cord

• Your air fryer has a 3-prong grounding plug, and should only be used with 120V, 60Hz electrical systems in North America. Always plug in to a grounded electrical outlet. Do not modify the plug in any way.
• Turn off the air fryer before removing the plug from the outlet.
• Do not let the power cord (or any extension cord) hang over the edge of a table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
• Remove and discard the plug's protective cover to prevent a choking hazard.
• Keep the air fryer and its cord out of reach of children
• Never use an outlet below the counter when plugging in your air fryer.
• A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
• Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer extension cord is used:
  • The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the air fryer.
  • 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.
  • This air fryer is an appliance of the grounded type. Any cord set or extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
  • If the power-supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by Arovast or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid an electric or fire hazard. Please contact Customer Support.

Cooking Tips

Overfilling

• If the basket is overfilled, food will cook unevenly.

Using Oil

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

Food Tips

• You can air fry any frozen foods or goods that can be baked in an oven.
• The Frozen function is ideal for small or breaded items, such as nuggets, meatballs, and pot stickers.
• To make cakes, hand pies, or any food with filling or batter, place food in a heat-safe container before placing in the basket.
• Air frying high-fat foods will cause fat to collect underneath the crisper plate. 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.
• The Broil function only uses the top heating element. Using this function when cooking oily food may reduce the amount of smoke produced.

French Fries

• Add ½–1 US tbsp / 8–15 mL 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.

Pat dry with a towel before adding oil.

More Functions

CARE & MAINTENANCE
