NOTES ON THE PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce
the risk of electric shock, this plug will t in a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not t fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact
a qualied electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.

NOTES ON THE CORD

The provided short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) should
be used to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over
a longer cord. An extension cord is not recommended for use with this product.
Always plug directly into a wall outlet/receptacle.

PLASTICIZER WARNING
CAUTION: To prevent Plasticizers from migrating to the nish of the counter

top or table top or other furniture, place NON-PLASTIC coasters or place mats
between the appliance and the nish of the counter top or table top. Failure to do
so may cause the nish to darken; permanent blemishes may occur or stains can
appear.

ELECTRIC POWER

If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance may not
operate properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical circuit from other
appliances.

Preheating the BELLA Air Convection Fryer

You may preheat the unit for more efcient cooking simply by selecting a cook time of 2 or 3 minutes and
cook at the default or higher temperature. For preheating, you will need to insert the empty Fry Basket
and Outer Basket (assembled) into the Main Unit Housing.

WARNING: Never ll the Outer Basket with cooking oil or any other liquid! Fire hazard or personal injury
could result.

Before Using for the First Time

Figure 2

When removing the Outer Basket, you may feel
slight resistance. Place your hand on top of the Unit
and pull gently on the Outer Basket.

CAUTION: IF THE SLIDING BUTTON GUARD MOVES
FORWARD WHEN REMOVING OUTER BASKET, BE
CAREFUL NOT TO PRESS THE BASKET RELEASE
BUTTON. OUTER BASKET WILL SEPARATE FROM
THE FRY BASKET AND MAY CAUSE INJURY.

WARNING: Wear an oven mitt on the hand you use

to hold the Unit in place.
Place the ingredients in the Fry Basket

(gure 1). Note: Never ll the Fry Basket above
the recommended amount as this could affect
the quality of the end result or interfere with the

Figure 3

electric heating coils.
Slide the Fry Basket back into the Unit until it

“clicks” in place (gure 2). Never use the Outer
Basket without the Fry Basket.

CAUTION: During the cooking process, the Outer
Basket will become very hot. When you remove it to
check on the progress, make sure you have a heat­resistant surface nearby to set it down on.

1. When the Fry Bas ket and food is se curely in

place, press the Power Button once

2. Selec t a Preset function using the M Button

or manually set the Temperature and then
the Time.

3. Press the Power Button (page 5 g. 1) onc e and the BELLA Air Convection Fryer will cycle through

the cooking process.

Note: You may remove the Fry Basket at any time during the process to check the progress. Because

Rapid Hot Air Technology instantly reheats the air inside the appliance, pulling the Outer Basket briey out
of the appliance during hot air frying barely disturbs the process.

Consult the charts in this manual or the Recipe Guide to determine the correct settings.

Helpful Hints

1. Olive oil spray or vegetable oil works well for air frying.

2. Use your Air Fryer to cook pre-packaged foods with a f raction of the oil, in a fraction of the time!

Asa general rule, lower the recipe baking temperature by 50ºF and reduce the cooking time by
30%to 50% depending on the food and amount.

3. Do not overll frying baske t with food. NEVER ll any frying baske t more than 2/3 f ull. When air fr ying

fresh veget ables, we do not recommend adding more than 3 cups of food to the fr ying basket.

4.

For best results

Consult the Air Frying Chart following as a general guide.

5. To avoid excess smoke, when cooking naturally high fat foods, such as c hicken wings or sausages,

it may be necessary to empt y fat from the frying basket drawer between batches.

6. Always pat food dry before cooking to encourage browning and avoid excess smoke.

7. Air fry small batches of freshly breaded foods. Press breading onto food to help it adhere.

Arrangein fr ying basket so that food is not touching to allow air ow on all surfaces.

8. The Air Fr yer can be used to reheat food. Set the temperature to 300ºF for up to 10 minutes.

, some foods need to be shaken vigorously or turned over during the air fry time.

9

Shaking:

To insure even cooking, some foods require “shaking” during the cooking process. To do this, simply
remove the Outer Basket and Fry Basket from the unit, gently shake the contents as needed and place back
in unit to continue cooking. For heavier foods, you might want to separate the Fry Basket from the Outer
Basket before shaking. To do this, place the assembled Outer Basket and Fry Basket on a heat-resistant
surface. Move Sliding Button Guard forward to expose Basket Release Button. Press the Basket Release
Button (top photo) and gently lift the Fry Basket.

Shake ingredients. Place the Fry Basket in the Outer Basket and return it to the Unit to nish cooking.

CAUTION: The Outer Basket will be hot... wear an oven mitt during this procedure. Never move the Sliding
Button Guard while shaking or you may press the Basket Release Button accidentally.

Tip: Set the Timer to 1/2 the time needed for the recipe. The Timer bell will alert you when it’s time to
“shake.” When you hear the Timer bell, the Preset preparation time has elapsed. Pull the Outer Basket out
of the appliance and place it on a heat-resistant surface.

To remove ingredients (i.e., fries), place the Outer Basket on a heat-resistant surface. Move Sliding Button
Guard forward. Press the Basket Release Button (top photo) and lift the Fry Basket out of the Outer Basket.
Turn the Fry Basket over and let the ingredients fall on a plate. Use nonabrasive utensils to remove
larger foods.

Do not turn the Fry Basket upside down with the Outer Basket still attached... excess oil that has collected
on the bottom of the Outer Basket will leak onto the food.

When a quantity of food is cooked, the Unit is instantly ready for preparing another batch. When the
cooking cycle is over, you maybegin use again immediately.

Tips

• Foods that are smaller in size usually require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger ones.

• Large quantities of food only r equire a slightly longer cooking time than smaller quantities.

• “Shaking” smaller-sized foods halfway through the cooking process ass ures that all the pieces are

fried evenly.

• Adding a bit of vegetable oil to fresh potatoe s is suggested for a crispier result . When adding a little

oil, do so just before cooking.

• Snack s normally cooked in an oven can also be cooked in the BELLA Air Convec tion Fr yer.

Air Frying Chart

WARNING! ALWAYS USE A MEAT THERMOMETER TO ENSURE THAT MEAT, POULTRY AND FISH ARE
COOKED THOROUGHLY BEFORE EATING. The following chart is intended as a guide only. The quantity

offood air fried at one time, the thickness or density of the food, and whether the food is fresh, thawed,
orfrozen may alter the total cooking time necessary.

1. To assure even cooking/browning, open the frying basket drawer half way through the cooking time.

Check, turn or vigorously shake foods in the fr ying basket . This chart lists average total air frying
time, the time at which some action is required, and what action is to be taken for best results .

2. Remember, frying smaller batches will result in shorter cooking times and higher food quality.

Adjust air frying temperatures and times as nece ssar y to suit your taste.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Unless food is pre-packaged and pre-oiled, for browned and crispy results,

allfoods should be lightly oiled before air fr ying.

• Oil may be sprayed or brushed onto foods.

• Spray oils work well as oil is evenly distributed and smaller quantities of oil are needed.

• To ensure crispy results, make sure foods are dried before adding oil.

• Cut pieces smaller to create mor e surface area for crispier results.

• Blanching is a term that ref ers to pre-cooking foods at a lower temperature before the nal air fry.

• Add 3 minutes to the AIR FRY TIME to allow the Air Fryer to preheat.
