How to use

Place the fryer on a stable, heat-resistant surface and plug it into a grounded outlet. Preheat if a recipe requires, then arrange food in a single layer inside the cooking basket without overfilling to ensure even airflow. Set the rotary control to the recommended temperature and cooking time, checking progress periodically and shaking or turning food halfway through when applicable. After cooking, switch off the unit, allow components to cool and remove the basket to serve. Clean the removable basket and bowl according to the manufacturer’s maintenance instructions before storing.

Usage recommendations

Use small amounts of oil for foods that benefit from added fat to improve browning, and avoid overcrowding the basket to maintain air circulation. For frozen items, add a few extra minutes and shake the basket during cooking. Regularly clean the basket and bowl to prevent residue build-up and preserve performance.
