HOW TO COOK IN THE TOAST-AIR

The Toast-Air® has multiple cooking functions, so you can customize your cooking for
perfect results every time. Metal, ovenproof glass, or ceramic bakeware without glass lids
can be used in the oven. However, the top of the container must be at least 1½-inches away
from the upper heating element. What follows is how to cook using the different settings.

AIR FRYER + OVEN

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONSOPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

7. To pause cooking, open the oven door. The timer will continue to countdown, but air
frying will stop (the oven will still be hot, however). When door is closed, air frying will
continue. To stop air frying before timer ends, turn the timer dial to Off.

NOTE: The interior light does not come on when you open the oven door. To turn it
on, press the Oven Light button on the control panel; press it again to turn it off.

NOTE: On first use, unit may emit a slight odor, which is normal and will dissipate with use.

AIR FRY

Air frying uses fast-moving hot air to cook food to crisp perfection without the need for oil.
It’s a great choice for cooking many frozen prepared foods as well as french fries, chicken
wings, and more.

1. Ensure the crumb tray is inserted in its position below the oven door and plug in unit.

2. Place food in basket and place basket on bake pan. Alternatively, place food directly
on wire rack and place bake pan in bottom position in oven as a drip tray.

3. Slide pan with basket or rack into oven.

4. Set Cook Function Dial to Air Fry.

5. Set the Temperature Dial to desired temperature.

6. Turn the Timer Dial to desired time; the Power Light will turn on and air frying will
begin.

NOTE: To set a time of less than 20 minutes, you must first turn the dial past the
20-minute mark, then turn it back to the lower time desired.

8. Cook until timer ends. A bell will ring and the Toast-Air® will turn off.

9. Using oven mitts, carefully remove food from the oven. Check for doneness, serve,
and enjoy!

BROIL OR CONVECTION BROIL

Broiling cooks via intense heat generated from the upper heating elements and is a good
choice for cooking meat or fish. It’s also good for browning foods like cheesy gratins and
casseroles. Convection broil does the same while blowing the hot air around for even
cooking.

1. Ensure the crumb tray is inserted in its position below the oven door and plug in unit.

2. Place food on broil pan or in basket on broil pan. NOTE: Using foil with Convection
Broil function can significantly affect the cook temperature and time.

3. Slide broil pan into the oven’s top rack position. NOTE: Be sure that food is not directly
touching the heating elements; lower pan if so.

4. Set Cook Function Dial to Broil or Convection Broil.

5. Set the Temperature Dial to Broil.

6. Turn the Timer Dial to desired time; the Power Light will turn on and broiling will begin

NOTE: To set a time of less than 20 minutes, you must first turn the dial past the
20-minute mark, then turn it back to the lower time desired.

ring and the Toast-Air® will turn off.

9. Using oven mitts, carefully remove food from the oven. Check for doneness, serve,
and enjoy!

BAKE OR CONVECTION BAKE

Baking is a general cooking method that works just like your regular oven. Use it to make
small-batch cookies, brownies, or to bake a cake. You can also roast meats and chicken using
the Bake function. Convection Bake moves the air around with a fan to cook foods faster and
hotter and is great for pizza.

1. Ensure the crumb tray is inserted in its position below the oven door and plug in unit.

2. Place food on bake pan or rack. NOTE: Using foil with Convection Bake function can
significantly affect the cook temperature and time.

6. Turn the Timer Dial to desired time; the Power Light will turn on and baking will begin.

NOTE: To set a time of less than 20 minutes, you must first turn the dial past the
20-minute mark, then turn it back to the lower time desired.

7. To pause cooking, open the oven door. The timer will continue to countdown, but
cooking will stop (the oven will still be hot, however). When door is closed, cooking
will continue. To stop cooking before timer ends, turn the timer dial to Off.

NOTE: The interior light does not come on when you open the oven door. To turn it
on, press the Oven Light button on the control panel; press it again to turn it off.

8. Cook until timer ends. A bell will ring and the Toast-Air® will turn off.

9. Using oven mitts, carefully remove basket or rack from the oven. Check food for
doneness, serve, and enjoy!

TOAST

The Toast-Air® can toast multiple slices of bread or bagels to the perfect brownness. And
you can keep an eye on your toast through the window.

1. Ensure the crumb tray is inserted in its position below the oven door and plug unit in
if necessary.

2. Place food on the wire rack and slide rack into the Toast-Air®.

3. Slide food into the oven. (NOTE: For baked goods, it’s wise to preheat empty oven for 5
minutes or so before adding food.)

4. Set Cook Function Dial to Bake or Convection Bake.

5. Set the Temperature Dial to desired temperature.

NOTE: If toasting one or two pieces of food, center them in the middle of the rack for
the best results.

3. Set the Cooking Function Dial to Toast.

COOKING TIPS TROUBLESHOOTING FAQS

• If not cooking on the broil pan, consider inserting it in bottom rack position as a
drip tray for easy cleanup.

• If warming leftover cooked meat using the Warm function, fill the broil pan with
1 cup of water and place below the food being warmed to keep it from drying out.

• When working with delicate food that can easily crumble, take the rack out of the
Toast-Air® and assemble your food directly on the rack.

• If using a pizza stone, preheat the stone in the oven for at least 20 minutes before
baking your pizza. Place the stone in the Toast-Air® and set to highest temperature.
You can incorporate both preheating and cooking by setting the timer for
30-40 minutes to incorporate the preheating and baking times all in one cycle.

Why didn’t my Toast Air® ring to alert me my food was finished cooking?

If you’re cooking something for less than 20 minutes, be sure to turn the timer dial past
the 20-minute mark first, then set it to the desired time.

Why isn’t my food golden brown and crisp?

Try tossing food in a little oil before cooking to enhance brownness. Also, be sure to
distribute foods evenly on pan, rack, or in basket; do not stack food.

Can I air fry foods that have a wet batter like tempura?

No. Foods dredged with a wet batter like tempura or beer batter should not be cooked
in the Toast-Air® as the batter will slough off the food. However, breaded foods like
chicken nuggets cook up beautifully in the Toast-Air®.

Do you have to preheat the Toast-Air®?

You do not have to, but when baking, food will cook faster and more evenly if the unit
is preheated for at least 5 minutes. It’s also helpful to preheat a baking stone if using
one for pizza.

Can you cook raw meat and seafood in the Toast-Air?

Yes. Always check foods for doneness using proper food safety guidelines.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

The Toast-Air® Air Fryer + Oven is easy to clean. Simply follow the directions below.

1. Unplug the unit and allow to cool completely before cleaning.

2. Gently wipe the exterior with a clean, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.

3. Using a sponge, soft cloth, or nylon pad, wash the glass on the door with dish soap
and warm water. Do NOT use a spray glass cleaner.

4. Using a mild liquid soap and a damp cloth or sponge, wipe the interior walls. Do
NOT use abrasive cleaners like steel wool pads, as they may damage the finish. Be
sure to clean the top interior of the Toast-Air®. Removing grease on a regular basis
will prevent smoke caused by a buildup of oils and will keep cooking consistent.

5. Slide out the crumb tray and toss out crumbs. Wipe clean. Remove any baked-on
grease by soaking tray in hot, sudsy water. Use non-abrasive cleaners like a sponge,
cloth, or brush. The crumb tray is NOT dishwasher safe.

6. Hand wash the broil pan, wire rack, and basket and dry thoroughly. The rack and
basket are also top-rack dishwasher safe. The broil pan is not dishwasher safe.

7. Fully dry the Toast-Air® and all accessories before storing.
