HOW TO USE (cont.)
14. Empty the contents of the Cooking Pan (7) into a bowl or
onto a plate using non-metallic utensils.
NOTE: Wooden, heat-proof silicone or nylon utensils are
recommended for use with this air fryer. Metal utensils may scratch
the nonstick coating.
15. Turn off the Power Switch (11) and unplug the Power Cord
(12) from wall outlet.
HELPFUL TIPS
• Suggested cooking times and temperatures will vary
depending on the quantity of ingredients used. The cooking pan has a nonstick coating, so it is not necessary to
add additional oil to every dish. Keep in mind that it is best
practice to season foods after they have been cooked to
avoid scorching your dish.
• Use the table on the next page to help select the best
settings for the ingredients you’re preparing. Please not
that this is only a guide; you will need to ensure your food
is properly cooked before serving.
• Save time and energy by toasting bagels, croissants, bread
slices, French rolls and more. Set the temperature to 212°F
and toast until desired darkness is achieved.

STIR means the recipe requires mixing the contents mid-way through cooking.
You can do this by lifting the Glass Lid (5) using the Lid Handle (1), which will
automatically pause the cooking process. Stir the contents using a non-metallic
utensil. Cooking will resume after you close the lid. You can also stop the cooking
process by pushing the START/STOP button. Push again to resume cooking.

out of the appliance during
use.
Home-made French fries
are coming out unevenly
cooked.
Home-made French fries
are not crispy after air
frying.
The appliance is not
plugged in.
The appliance is defective.
There is too much food in
the Cooking Pan (7).
The cooking temperature
is set too low.
The cooking time is too
short.
Food is raw and frozen
solid.
Certain foods need to be
stirred mid-way through
the cooking process.
You used a type of snack
meant to be prepared in a
traditional deep fryer.
The Cooking Pan (7) is

You are preparing food
with a high oil content.
The pan has built-up
oil residue from previous
uses.
Your potatoes are not fresh

Potato strips were not well
rinsed prior to frying.
Crispy results are directly
linked to the amount of oil
used and water content of
the fresh potato strips.
Plug the power cord (12) into an electrical
outlet.
You did not ip the POWER Switch (11) on
the back of the unit.
Make sure the Glass Lid (5) is completely

Contact customer service at
www.maxi-matic.com
Use smaller batches of food in the Cooking
Pan (7) to cook more evenly.

“Cooking Time Chart” found in this manual.
Increase the time setting. Check “Cooking
Time Chart” found in this manual.
Raw frozen foods should be thawed before
cooking in the air fryer. Exceptions to this
are pre-cooked frozen foods.
Foods that overlap inside the Cooking Pan
(7) need to be stirred mid-way through
cooking.
Use oven snacks or lightly brush some oil
onto the snacks for a crispier result.
Do not overll the Cooking Pan (7).
When cooking with oily foods, oil will drain
into the Cooking Pan (7). When the air fryer
heats up, the pan heats up the oil and
produces white smoke. This does not
adversely affect the air fryer or your cooking
process.
White smoke is caused by oil leftover in the
Cooking Pan (7). Make sure to thoroughly
clean the Cooking Pan (7) after every use.
Make sure to use fresh and rm potatoes,
not frozen potatoes, for home-made French
fries.
Thoroughly rinse sliced potato to remove all
starch prior to frying.
Potato strips need to be thoroughly dried
before adding oil.
Slice potato strips thinner if you want them
crispier.
Use a bit more oil on the potato strips prior
to frying if you want crispier results.
