Shaking Food
How to Shake
• During cooking, take the baskets out of
the air fryer and shake, mix, or flip the
food.
A. To shake food:
1. Hold the baskets just above a
heat-resistant surface for safety
purposes. Do not press the basket
release button.
2. Shake the baskets.

B. If the baskets are too heavy to shake:
1. Place the baskets on a heat-
resistant holder or surface.
2. Separate the baskets. Make sure no
liquids are dripping from the inner
basket.
3. Carefully shake the inner basket.
Note: Do not use this method if there is a risk of hot
liquids splashing.
C. If the baskets are too heavy to shake
and there are hot liquids present:
1. Place the baskets on a heat-
resistant holder or surface.
2. Use tongs to mix or flip the food.
• When you take the baskets out, the air
fryer will pause cooking automatically. As
a safety feature, the display will turn off
until the baskets are replaced.
• When you replace the baskets, cooking
will automatically resume.
• Avoid shaking longer than 30 seconds, as
the air fryer may start to cool down.
What to Shake
• Small foods that are stacked will usually
need shaking, such as fries or nuggets.
• Without shaking, foods may not be crispy
or evenly cooked.
• You can flip other foods, such as steak, to
ensure even browning.
When to Shake
• Shake or flip food once halfway through
cooking, or more if desired.
• Certain presets use a Shake Reminder (see
Preset Settings, page 18).
Shaking Food (CONT.)
Shake Reminder
• The Shake Reminder will alert you with 5
beeps, and "((SHAKE))" will blink on the
display.
• If you do not remove the baskets, the
Shake Reminder will beep again after 1
minute and the display will show a solid
"((SHAKE))".
• The Shake Reminder will go away once
you take out the baskets.
Cooking Guide
Overfilling
• If the basket is overfilled, food will cook
unevenly.
• Food should not be filled over the "MAX"
line of the inner basket. [Figure 12]
Do not pack in food.
Using Oil
• Adding a small amount of oil to your food
will make it crispier. Use no more than
30 mL / 2 US tbsp of oil.
• Oil sprays are excellent for applying small
amounts of oil evenly to all food items.
Food Tips
•
You can air fry any frozen foods or goods
that can be baked in an oven.
•
To make cakes, hand pies, or any food
with filling or batter, place food in a
heat-safe container before placing in the
baskets.
•
Air frying high-fat foods will cause fat
to drip to the bottom of the baskets. To
avoid excess smoke while cooking, pour
out fat drippings after cooking.
•
Liquid-marinated foods create splatter
and excess smoke. Pat these foods dry
before air frying.
French Fries
•
Add 8–15 mL / ½–1 US tbs poil for
crispiness.
•
When making fries from raw potatoes,
soak uncooked fries in water for 15
minutes to remove starch prior to frying.
Pat dry with a towel before adding oil.
•
Cut uncooked fries smaller for crispier
results. Try cutting fries into
0.6- by 7.6-cm / ¼- by 3-inch strips.
