Other great advantages provided by your Kalorik Smart Fryer include:
Fast cooking, with little to no preheating required.
Quick and easy clean-up: the non-stick coated parts are
conveniently sized to fit in the dishwasher.
Hassle-free frying—no spatters, no mess, and no oil smell!
Versatility—with its frying, baking, grilling, and roasting capacities,
this unit serves as a great cooking tool for a busy kitchen.
No assembly required—very easy and safe to use!
Also features a dual-layer rack and 3 skewers to maximize the
cooking capacity and versatility of your Smart Fryer.
BEFORE THE FIRST USE
Unpack the appliance and its accessories (food basket, food
basket holder, rack). Wash the accessories in hot, soapy water and
then wipe them dry. Wipe the interior of the frying cavity with a
damp cloth or sponge, and then dry with a paper towel. Make sure
the cavity is dry before operating the unit.
Position the Smart Fryer on a flat, level and heat-resistant surface,
making sure that it is also positioned at least 6 inches (15 cm) away
from any surrounding objects.
It is recommended to let the Smart Fryer heat for about 20 minutes
without any food in it. This helps to eliminate grease that may have
adhered during manufacturing, and to eliminate the "new"
appliance smell.
Ventilate the room during this period. When your Smart Fryer is
heated for the first time, it may emit slight smoke or odor. This is
normal with many heating appliances. This does not affect the
safety of your appliance.
Caution: When moving the Smart Fryer, make sure that you hold it
securely and support the base—do not rely solely on the food basket
handle when moving the Smart Fryer!

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preparing for use
Place the appliance on a stable, horizontal, and level surface.
Make sure that the surface is heat resistant and that the Smart Fryer
is also positioned at least 6 inches (15 cm) away from any
surrounding objects.
Make sure that the food basket is securely placed inside the basket
holder.
Insert the power plug into a wall socket. Your Smart Fryer is now
ready for use!
Caution!
• Do not fill the food basket or basket holder with oil or any other liquid,
as this may cause a fire hazard.
• Never use the Smart Fryer without the food basket in place.
• Keep all ingredients in the basket to prevent any contact with the
appliance’s heating elements. Do not overfill the food basket.
• Do not cover the air inlet on the top or the air outlet on the back of the
unit while the appliance is in use.
• Do not touch the inside of the appliance while it is operating.
• Never immerse the unit’s housing in water or rinse it under the tap.
2. Using the appliance
The Smart Fryer can be used to prepare a large variety of foods. Please
refer to the table in the “Settings” section for basic cooking times, or
refer to the included recipe book.
Pull the handle to carefully remove the food basket holder from the
Smart Fryer.
Put the ingredients that you will be air-frying into the food basket
and place the basket into the basket holder.
Note: Never fill the basket to capacity or exceed the recommended
amounts (see section ‘Settings’ in this chapter), as this could affect the
quality of cooking.
Slide the basket back into the Smart Fryer.
9
www.KALORIK.com
FT 42139 - 170120
Caution! Never use the Smart Fryer without the food basket and the
food basket holder in it!
Caution! Do not touch the food basket, basket holder, or the inside of
the Smart Fryer during and immediately after use, as they get very hot.
Only hold the food basket by its handle. Always use oven mitts. Unit is
hot!
Turn the temperature control dial to the required cooking
temperature (See section’ Settings’ in this chapter to help
determine the right temperature).
Determine the required preparation time for the ingredients (see
section ‘Settings’ after this chapter).
To switch the appliance on, turn the timer knob to the required
cooking time.
The green power-on light will illuminate and the fryer will quickly start
generating hot air. The timer will start counting down the set time.
The orange light will turn off when the set temperature is reached.
During the air frying process, the orange “Preheat” light will turn on
and off intermittently. This indicates that the heating element is
maintaining the set temperature.
During cooking, some excess oil and cooking juices from the
ingredients will collect in the basket holder. This is to be expected.
Some recipes require shaking the food in the basket halfway
through the set time (see section ’Settings’ in this chapter). To shake
the ingredients, pull the basket out of the appliance using the
handle and gently, but firmly, shake it. Slide the basket holder back
into the Smart Fryer and continue to cook.
Note: Because the rapid hot air technology instantly reheats the air
inside of the appliance, pulling the basket briefly out of the appliance
during hot air frying will not disturb the cooking process.
Tip: Sometimes, it is easier to divide cooking times into 2 phases for
recipes that require the basket to be shaken mid-cooking. If you set the
timer to half the required cooking time, you will hear the timer bell go
off when you have to shake the ingredients. Please note that after
shaking, you must set the timer again to the remaining preparation
time.
10
www.KALORIK.com
FT 42139 - 170120
Tip: If you set the timer to the full cooking time, the timer bell will not go
off until cooking is completed. You can pull the basket out at any time
to check the cooking condition of the ingredients. The power will shut
down automatically and resume after you slide the basket holder back
into the appliance. Note that the timer does not stop counting down in
this situation.
When you hear the timer bell, the set preparation time has elapsed.
Using oven mitts and the handle, pull the basket holder out of the
appliance and place it on a heat-resistant surface.
Note: You can also switch the appliance off at any time. To do this,
simply set the timer to “0”.
Check to see if the ingredients are ready. If they are not ready,
simply slide the basket back into the appliance and set the timer for
a few extra minutes.
Caution! After hot air frying, the basket, the basket holder and the
ingredients will be hot! Depending on the type of the ingredients in the
Smart Fryer, steam may escape out of the unit. Be mindful of scalding
and wear kitchen gloves for safety.
To detach the food basket from the basket holder, slide the
protection cover and press on the basket release button.
Caution! Never press the release button unless the basket holder is
resting on a flat, level, and heat resistant surface! The basket holder
contains hot liquid on the user. Risk of severe scalding!
Holding the basket by the handle, empty the air-fried food into a
bowl or onto a plate.
Tip: To remove large or fragile ingredients, you may use a pair of tongs
to lift the ingredients out of the basket. Use tongs or utensils with heatresistant plastic tips, as metallic tips or utensils may scratch the coating
of the basket.
When a batch of food is ready, the Smart Fryer is instantly ready for
preparing another batch.

3. Using the dual layer rack and skewers
The Kalorik Smart Fryer includes a dual layer rack that increases the
versatility of your appliance. You can use the rack to increase your
Smart Fryer’s cooking surface by layering food both underneath it and
on top of it. You can also use it to cook or reheat 2 types of food
simultaneously, cooking one type of food underneath the rack and
another type of food on top. To use the rack, place it into the food
basket, place your ingredients on top and/or underneath it, and airfry
as usual. We recommend placing your bottom layer of ingredients into
the basket before setting the rack on top.
Tip: To avoid excess liquids dripping onto the bottom layer of food,
place the drier ingredients on the top layer and the wetter ingredients
on the bottom.
This rack is also ideal for increasing the capacity of “flatter” foods, such
as hamburgers and fish, which can be cooked at once. You can place
these kinds of ingredients both under and on top of the rack.
The dual layer rack can also be used to cook with as many as 3 of the
included metal skewers. The skewers can be placed on the upper part
of the rack’s frame and are great for air frying meat, fruits, and
vegetables.
IMPORTANT: If you notice the fan is not operating once the product
starts cooking (no noise or airflow), please discontinue usage
immediately and contact Customer Service.

MAKING HOME-MADE FRIES
To make home-made fries, follow the steps below:
Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
Wash the potato sticks thoroughly and dry them with paper towels.
Pour 1/2 tablespoon of canola oil in a bowl, put the sticks on top
and mix until they are coated with oil.
Remove the sticks from the bowl with your hands or a kitchen utensil
so that excess oil stays behind in the bowl. Put the sticks in the
basket.
Note: Do not tilt the bowl to pour the potato sticks into the basket.
Transfer them with your hands or a kitchen utensil in smaller batches to
prevent excess oil from collecting on the bottom of the pan.
Airfry the potato sticks according to the instructions above. For best
results, do not fry more than 1.2 lb. of fries per batch.
SETTINGS
The table below will help you select the basic settings for the
ingredients you want to prepare.
Note: Keep in mind that these settings are suggestions.
Tips:
- Any food that can be prepared in a traditional oven can also be
prepared in the Smart Fryer.
- Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time
optimizes the end result and can help prevent unevenly air-fried
food.
- A larger amount of ingredients only requires a slightly longer
preparation time; a smaller amount of ingredients only requires a
slightly shorter preparation time.
- Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time
optimizes the end result and can help prevent unevenly fried food.
- If some foodstuffs tend to stick at the bottom of the basket, think to
add some cooking oil spray in the basket prior to adding the
ingredients to cook.
13
www.KALORIK.com
FT 42139 - 170120
- Do not prepare very greasy ingredients, such as sausages, in the
Smart Fryer as the grease could catch fire.
- Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your
ingredients in the Smart Fryer within a few minutes after you add the
oil.
- The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 500 grams / 1.2lb
- Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily.
Pre-made dough also requires a shorter preparation time than
home-made dough.
- Place a baking tin or oven dish in the Smart Fryer basket if you want
to bake a cake or quiche or if you want to fry fragile or filled
ingredients.
- You can also use the Smart Fryer to reheat food. To reheat
ingredients, set the temperature to 290℉ for up to 10 minutes.

Fried snacks are
not crispy when
they come out of
the Smart Fryer.
You used a type of
snack meant to be
prepared in a
traditional deep
fryer.
Use snacks made to be prepared in the
oven, or lightly brush some oil onto the
snacks for a crispier result.
I cannot slide the
basket into the
