heat.

• Do not operate the unit on an inclined surface.

Before First Use

Before using your Air Fryer Oven for the
first time, unpack the appliance and
remove all packaging, promotional materials
and stickers from the product. Remove
any plastic or cardboard from inside the
cooking compartment. Remove all printed
documents.

Clean the Air Fryer Oven and all accessories
with a damp cloth, using only milk, soapy
water.

Usage Instructions

Conguring Your Air Fryer Oven

1. The Air Fryer Oven can be used as
two separate cooking compartments
where each side can be programmed
with different functions, times and
temperatures, or as one large 11L
cooking compartment by removing the
Middle Partition.

2. Afterdecidingonyourconguration
placetheAirFryerOvenonaatsurface

and plug in.

Preparing Your Air Fryer Oven

1. Placeonaat,level,heat-resistant

surface.

2. Plug the cord into 230-240V power
outlet and turn Power ( ) on. All
available functions will illuminate.

3. Select the Match function (
Air Fry, then press Start/Pause ( ). The
Air Fryer Oven will run for 15 minutes
to eliminate any remaining manufacture
residue.

Removing the Middle Partition

1. Ensure the Air Fryer Oven is cool. DO
NOT remove the Middle Partition while
the Air Fryer Oven is hot.

2. Open both compartment doors.

3. Pull the Middle Partition towards you to
slide it out of the Air Fryer Oven.

4. The Large Roasting Tray or Air Fry
Tray can be used when the partition is
removed.

5. All functions and presets can be used
when cooking in the large cooking
compartment, however ‘1’, ‘2’, ‘Sync’
( ) and ‘Match’ (1=2) are not relevant
to the large cooking compartment and
so will not be available to select.

1=2

) then

Usage Instructions

Re-inserting the Middle Partition

1. Ensure the Air Fryer Oven is cool. DO
NOT insert the partition whilst the Air
Fryer Oven is hot.

2. Fully open both compartment doors.

3. There is no ‘wrong way’ when re­inserting the Middle Partition. Align into
the slots at the top and bottom of the
cooking compartment and push gently
until it touches the back wall. Once in
place the Air Fryer Oven will register it
has been inserted and the user interface
will allow you to set the program for the
cooking compartments separately.

NOTE: If the doors will not close properly

the Middle Partition has not been
inserted into the cooking compartment
correctly.

Choosing Your Accessories

• When using the Air Fry Tray place the
Roasting Tray on the rail below or on the
bottom of the cooking compartment to
collect any oil or crumbs.

• For best results when using the Roasting
Trays and Air Fry Trays together in the
same compartment, the Roasting Tray
should be placed on lower rail only,
with the Air Fry Tray positioned above.

Thisallowsforbetterairowandevenly

cooked food.

• When using the Baskets ensure the air

owtraysarefullyinserteduntilthe

rubber feet are on the bottom of the
basket.

• When cooking frozen food using all 4
trays at once, we recommend increasing
your cooking time by 3-4 minutes.

NOTE: When using the Roasting Tray on

the highest shelf position, food with a
high fat content can create more smoke,
due to the proximity of the heating
element.

• For best results and when baking
larger cakes, bread and cookies, we
advise baking with the Middle Partition
removed and the Large Roasting Tray
placed on the bottom of the oven, with
the basket or your own bakeware placed
on the roasting tray. This allows better

airowaroundyourchosenbakeware.

Cooking Guide

Guide to cooking popular foods in your air
fryer oven

The table on the next page provides basic
cooking guidelines for popular foods that
can be cooked using the food functions and
presets:

Functions: Air Fry, Turbo Crisp, Roast, Grill,
Bake, Reheat.

Presets: Fries, Chicken, Meat, Vegetables.

Please note that due to the variations
in thickness and size of the foods being
cooked some experimentation may be
required for the best cooking results.
Always ensure that the food is thoroughly
cooked to food-safe temperature throughout
before consuming.

When cooking fresh fries, keep oil
quantities as low as possible for the
healthiest results. However, if you feel the
fries are a little pale and require further
browning, increase the quantity of oil
slightly.

Note: For crispier results, it is
recommended to shake the basket 2-4
times throughout the cooking cycle.

For larger quantities, (1kg) increase cooking
times and toss food more frequently.
