Tips for Getting the Best Performance
Use the viewing window to check progress instead of opening the basket too often. Choose Fresh Chips or Frozen Chips depending on the food you are cooking. Use Bake for muffins and Roast Low or Roast High for meat or similar meals. Use the fruit drying temperature range when dehydrating fruit. Avoid overfilling the basket if crispness matters. Clean the non stick basket and dishwasher friendly parts after use to keep the appliance easy to maintain.
