Instructions for Use
Before First Use
Read all material, warning stickers, and labels.
1.
Remove all packing materials, stickers, and labels from the appliance.
2.
Please go to www.prodprotect.com/powerxl to register your warranty.
3.
Before initial use, wipe the inside and outside of the appliance with a warm, moist cloth and mild
4.
detergent. Handwash all cooking accessories.
Place appliance on a heat-resistant surface or use heat protection. Do not place the appliance on
5.
a surface that is not heat resistant. Ensure that the appliance is used in an area with adequate air
circulation. Do not place on the stove top.
Before cooking food, preheat the appliance for a few minutes to allow the appliance to burn off the
6.
manufacturer's protective coating of oil. Wipe the appliance with warm, soapy water and a dishcloth
after this burn-in cycle.
Shaking/Flipping
To ensure even cooking, some foods require shaking or flipping during the cooking process. Some of
this appliance's functions and presets include a halfway timer, which is a timer that will beep and the
Shake Icon on the Control Panel will blink when the cooking cycle has reached its halfway point. At the
halfway point in the cycle, carefully use oven mitts to remove the hot Fry Basket from the appliance. For
food with high moisture content, use tongs to flip the food. Otherwise, gently shake the Fry Basket.
NOTE: If you do not remove the Fry Basket and shake or flip the food, the Shake Icon on the Control Panel
will remain illuminated.
Tips
•
Foods that are smaller in size usually require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger foods.
•
Snacks normally cooked in an oven can also be cooked in this appliance.
•
Use premade dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Premade dough also requires a
shorter cooking time than homemade dough.
•
Adding a bit of vegetable oil to breaded items can help produce a crispier result. When adding oil,
do so immediately before cooking and add only a small amount onto the breaded items.
Using the Paper Liners
The Paper Liners can be used when cooking delicate or sticky food; they help prevent food from sticking
to the Fry Tray, making clean-up easier. Lay a Paper Liner on top of the Fry Tray before adding your
ingredients to the Fry Basket.
The Paper Liners are heat resistant up to 450° F.
The holes in the Paper Liners help air circulate around your food.
When using a Paper Liner, make sure you add enough food to keep the Paper Liner in place during the
cooking process.
The Paper Liners should not be reused. After using one to cook, throw it away.
